It's easier to just not listen to the person with ADHD or believe they're lazy rather than having to confront that the system is unfair and that many people cannot succeed in it no matter how much effort they put in. That scares people, so they put up a wall to protect their existing belief, which means dismissing people's lived experiences

Though neurotypicals are sometimes hesitant to believe that anyone can truly live like this, because it tends to interfere with core beliefs about free will and "everyone can pull themselves up by their bootstraps"

Getting non-disabled people to understand that some people literally cannot do a thing sometimes no matter how hard they try is a key challenge of disability activism. Because if they accept that, they'd have to challenge core beliefs about society and capitalism working

I've learned over time that neurotypicals generally don't understand the impact of executive dysfunction from #ADHD. I've found that being a little more blunt can help. I tell them that having ADHD is like having inconsistent and unreliable free will.

Because that is literally what it is like for me.

sysadmin things that annoy me: something breaks, I keep looking for it to break again and it doesn't

NL heeft N.B. van alle Europese landen de nog maar het kortst houdbare vaccins. Maar Agema blijft er zo lang mogelijk bovenop zitten:
* asociaal (eigen volk eerst, zelfs als dat veel later of nooit is)
* racistisch (uiteraard, bij een bevriend Westeuropees land lag het vast anders)
* oliedom (een pandemie in de kiem smoren in het land waar die ontstaat is vele malen kansrijker dan als het overal in Europa rondgaat, dan gaat ze ons groepsimmuniteit aansmeren wil ik wedden)

@joepie91 now I think of it, JCDecaux is basically Google for public transit.

Ok so I did a live code review with my masters student im teaching last week, made changes in a branch in multiple commits, opened a PR so they could read through and digest later, so far so normal.

During lab meeting they said "I got some good feedback from jonny, and ill be working through that, but there are like 15 commits so it might take me a bit" which made me go ??? a little but shrugged it off. I was trying to model committing often with each change having a descriptive commit message, but the PR was relatively small and this is not a live/public project, so I figured they would just merge it to main and keep working on it there. We're still working our way up to a stable main/work on feature branches git flow.

It appears as if they thought they had to go through and manually re-apply the changes I had made in each commit in order, not rebasing or cherry picking, but copy and pasting code in their editor. The idea of merging was new to them, as was the entire PR interface. I had made a guide for code review a few months ago with lots of annotated screenshots and etc., but there were enough strange terms that they couldnt really parse it - what the purpose was, what the start point of work done on a branch and end point of merging meant.

Always a reminder that you need to go back further than you think when teaching. I dont know how to balance allowing for self-exploration with scaffolding well, and teaching git is harder than teaching programming sometimes because it's "invisible" and happens between the code, but the code is something you can look at and see.

Thanks to a donation from Clonelocker, the #LG LG535 on TELUS has been dumped!
This is firmware version CX535V13, the last known firmware released for the LG535.
As usual, the firmware dump and corresponding pinout is available on the Dumbphone Repo.

We've just woken to an empty house after having a friend visit for 2 weeks and I'd love to know if a word exists in any language for the contradicting feelings of:

"Extreme relief to have your space back so you can be a feral gruntle beast again and missing someone intensely and wishing they'd stayed longer."

Serieuze vraag: zijn er hier mensen met kennis over de politiek van Cyprus? Het gaat me specifiek om de opdeling in twee delen (Cyprus vs. TRNC) en de huidige relatie daartussen. RT = fijn. Tips waar dit soort informatie te vinden is: ook welkom.

actually this is the median consumer

Gnomes use treasure maps as currency, as none of them want to walk long distances with bags of heavy coins.

Humans who use these maps to hunt down the treasure are always disappointed, as they lift the treasure-chest's lid, and find it's full of maps. This is because, as covered earlier, gnomes use treasure maps as currency, as none of them want to walk long distances with bags of heavy coins.

is there any game that has a "you have to make the room look nice" mechanic that isn't defeated by just spamming the most expensive (or most whatever) object

went on steam to see how expensive an indie game was now that i have a desktop and remembered no everything is way too expensive now because rich fucks vpnd into the country i live in too many times so they could buy games for cheaper
