Take some of the questionnaires from more legitimate ADHD resource sites. Where I scored highly likely to be ADHD, my partner did not at all.
That being said, you could also undergo psychiatric assessment with a psychiatrist, but it may be a little expensive. I would recommend it if you can, because medication and appropriate psychotherapy can greatly improve quality of life.
Granted, it would be rather dumb to be going online with anything pirated on the switch, but dual booting is a pretty fair way of going about it if you already own games/ want online options. Just takes extra memory in the SD card.
Definitely recommend it.
Been hoping for that for a long time, lol.
I actually bought one for my collection. Takes a lot of tweaking, which I think is what detracts a lot of people, but it’s not bad hardware at all.
I can relate to anxiety as a coping mechanism for undiagnosed ADHD. I can have sudden flares of panic if my mind wanders onto random topics and suddenly I’m wondering if I’ve left x at home or forgotten to lock my car door (I forgot a couple times…). I also do pat downs of my pockets and rummage through my bag to ensure something is where they’re meant to be.
Looking at the pricing for the Framework 16 (prebuilt with Windows, to benchmark), it’s just under x2 the price of the Acer Nitro 5 my partner bought last year with a 3050. Not the worst proposition assuming most of the laptop’s components make it 10 years and the only upgrades/replacements are to CPU, GPU and battery.
The main concern is longevity since it’s a relatively new company. It needs early adopters to commit that initial investment and pay the extra now for the company to survive and scale, and it needs staying power and time in the market in order to attract more confidence and convert sales.
I would like to see it succeed since my personal goal is to just reduce the e-waste I contribute as a heavy tech user. Laptops are just e-waste walking at the moment so I think any reduction to throwing out the whole thing every time it starts to fall behind current developments is good.
Awareness is growing and there is a demand. We just have to see if the demand is great enough to push user repairability in tech.
Based on the coverage I’ve seen and what I understand, likely there would be a new motherboard and larger base to house bigger parts and the screen would be maintained.
I do believe they’ll be able to achieve the goal of making laptop lifespans last beyond 10 years, which is why we’d like ways to upgrade. I’m cautiously optimistic about developments here.
I enjoy top down stealth games, and haven’t seen this game get discussed much, but it was pretty fun - Serial Cleaner (and sequel, Serial CleanerS)
You play a guy who cleans up murder scenes for an unknown serial killer, all the while evading guards and other security measures. It’s a pretty fun experience, and I do recommend giving it a go if that’s your kind of thing.
There’s also the Marvelous Miss Take, a game where you play a woman on a mission to perform a series of heists. Also a top down stealth game, you get to use some gadgets to distract guards while you sneak past and to your goal.
Both are older indie games, but enjoyable for at least one playthrough.
Not sure about solo games, but check out ten candles for a game where you won’t need a lot of prep.
If you like stuff like D&D, you could try to check out ways to simplify character sheets (or pre generate characters) and use existing modules for one shots.
There’s a lot of free ones you could start with - I kept getting recommended a oneshot called A Most Potent Brew when I was looking for one. It’s a pretty fun time and you won’t have to come up with something new to run it.
If you want to further simplify gameplay for D&D, you can have a coin toss determine if you hit or not, and a d6 (regular 6 sided die) for damage. Movement is 6 squares a turn. Play it more like a video game, just on paper.
It’s a matter of education and how they understand the situation I suppose. I was a Reddit refugee moving over from the official app because the news really showed how anti consumer the company was being. It’s not much of a protest, but I only go on Reddit now if I really need certain information, so I don’t think it’s a total failure.
Bots and trolls will probably follow as Lemmy grows and gains traction, but I hope by that time moderation will have improved and will be able to scale to handle that.
Well, I’m trying, but my brain decided I should spend the next 3 hours doomscrolling while I mentally kick myself for not doing the thing already.
I think with adulthood there’s been more things I can “just do”, but the smaller things usually get procrastinated to hell and back for no reason besides “my brain didn’t want to do it”.
Same with potential, whatever greatness I was promised by everyone who said that hasn’t happened yet.
