That’s it, 2016 is the year of Linux on the desktop.

It’s not wrong. What do you think your smartphone is?

Donkter ,

And the overprescribing of Adderall.

flicker ,

Is there any evidence that it's being overprescribed? I only ask because I know prescriptions have jumped but I also know that women over 30 are seen as an epidemic of those never diagnosed, and now that they are finally being diagnosed (and some choose to start medication) I wonder if it's that it's overprescribed or if we're just catching up?

Anticorp ,

I wish someone would prescribe me Adderall.

A mobile computer heavily optimized to exploit the mental weaknesses of most users to distract and advertize to them as often as possible, while extracting and selling their information.

But it’s also device occassionally reworked by some users to not be so obnoxious, and just a very useful and variable tool with access to an unprecedented library of knowledge. But that really is pretty rare.

That is really only how you set up your device. Mine only notifies me about E-Mails and the occasional Family&Friends chat. And, rarely, it rings.

Just need a way to microdose it

Ever tried Factorio on amphetamines?

With my ADHD that’s probably the only way I could play it.

peopleproblems ,

As someone with ADHD, I will say that adderall helps me stop playing Factorio.

You know that hyperfocus thing we do?

factorio turned that up to 11 if I didn’t take my morning dose before I started to play it. I say before, because if I didn’t take it, it would be 5pm by the time I realize I needed to take it

cooljacob204 ,

Yeah factorio is an absolute sink hole where time just disappears. I cannot wait for v2.

MossyFeathers ,

Without medication I hyperfocus on Factorio but get nothing done. Anything I do get done, ends up being spaghetti and I have to rip it all up later. With my meds I can actually get stuff done instead of staring absentmindedly at the conveyor belts (they are seriously hypnotic) and upgrading a random machine here or there.

@agent_flounder@lemmy.world avatar

Oof. It’s one of those kinds of games, then. Ok, I will steer clear. I don’t need another hyperfocus magnet in my life lol

Turned out linking human brains to computers just makes the computers stupider.

    In one of his old Q&As Jordan Peterson said that his IQ was over 150. Despite this apparent intelligence he spends all his time lying about climate change, trans people and “cultural Marxism”, and posting joker memes and pseudo-haikus on Twitter. That’s when he’s not tweeting milking fetish porn or quoting a Bond villain as if his speech was a historical fact.

    The guy is clearly becoming increasingly insane and unhinged, and due to his immense narcissism and overconfidence he’s become completely incapable of changing his mind or legitimate academic inquiry. Even if he was as smart as he said that didn’t stop him from shoving his head up his own ass and becoming increasingly stupid.

    MossyFeathers ,

    Jordan Peterson might have originally had a 150 IQ (pretending IQ honestly means much of anything anymore), but he almost certainly doesn’t after his detox. The short of it is that he was addicted to benzos, and instead of quitting the old-fashion way, he decided to try a new treatment in Russia where they put you in a coma for the duration of the typical withdrawal period. Theoretically this would be a great way of emergency treatment for hardcore addicts as you can help addicts learn coping mechanisms without having to deal with the withdrawals at the same time. However, in practice he was basically unmonitored the whole time and suffered several seizures and neurological damage.

    I mean, if antidepresives & social media count, then this indeed happened. But it doesn’t count and instead we pursued the goal of achieving climate change asap & rigging the economy for stagnation of human development.

    Adderall is the linchpin of many a functioning student.

    An ADHD diagnosis changed my entire life. 10 years of treatment for depression. Then bam! Adderall!

    Same but Vyvanse. Diagnosed at 40.

    DragonTypeWyvern , (edited )

    Love the neurotypicals apparently thinking the other guy was being sarcastic with conditions notorious for comorbidity.

    Toss in some anxiety and you have a “gifted” student.

    NegativeInf ,

    Hahaha. I’m in this comment and I hate it. And yes, I was being genuine. Diagnosed at 30 with ADHD.

    PopShark ,

    Toss in growing up without any resources offered to help you and then have an existential crisis once on proper meds as an adult wondering how all those years would’ve been different with just a fuckin occasional shrink visit sometime in early teenage years

    Evil_Shrubbery ,

    Ffs, they keep telling me I’m too old for amphetamines & to just stick with antidepressos.

    I love stuff like this. Source?

    Edit: Thanks! I also find the psychology disturbing: “Yay! We get to have slaves again! Except, you know, animals this time because that’s okay…”
