Yes, this is what makes you sound like a wonderful father. That you didn’t see it as even optional. None of us are experts on things we haven’t experienced before 😊
I think people like you are a hair from being as insane as the people they lock up.
Since I fully agree with what the commenter you’re replying to said, I’ll assume you’re lumping me into that group too.
Sure, call me insane. Call me crazy. Call me fucking nuts and say I need a straight jacket. Whatever floats your boat.
You’re not one of the people that can lock me up though and it’s pretty clear why. So just remember that “crazy” motherfuckers like me are driving next to you on the freeway, shopping behind you in the grocery store, living down the hall, etc. We could lose it at any point!
Fear of what you don’t understand and ignoring expert opinions are destroying society. Which side of that would you like to be on?
Plus, you’re talking to another human being, it’s just fucking disrespectful.
I personally see it as “hyperfocus” when I’m talking about minutes or hours and “fixations” when on the scale of weeks or months. But I have a lot of opinions about semantics for someone who isn’t a professional 😂
And I agree with his point in the video, probably because I first saw it years ago so I’m already biased and it’s also very much the case for me. It’s perseveration. I can’t break away from the task, sometimes even if I’m screaming at myself internally to do so. I hate it and it feels like I’m malfunctioning at the time. Hyperfocus sounds like a good thing, maybe even superhuman, that you can willingly steer, and that’s not the case.
Yeah they really buried some critical information on this one. I get the point of the article about general surveillance but when people feel tricked they get burned out on the issue and trust the media less. They could have made the point they wanted without making it clickbait.
I’m glad I’m not the only one https://sh.itjust.works/comment/3786533
And it was when reading this comment that I realized I was thinking of Philip J Fry and Stephen Fry is not him.

This video is great, I watched it around a year ago and if it’s new information it totally changes the way you think about grounding. It’s also helpful in choosing how to use your layers. It’s a little slow so it might take a couple of sittings to watch the whole thing.
The latest letter from the Ohio representative explains Congress’ “clear legislative interest” in making sure elected prosecutors don’t abuse their authority to politically “target federal officials,”
Uhh… He’s not a federal official. Sit down Gym.
Could you pin a comment on the post for that first article that gives links to alternative articles? I don’t know if that’s possible on lemmy. But megathreads are annoying to me because they usually just have a list of articles that is overwhelming and it’s much easier to just read none of them. Plus it doesn’t interact well with continuing conversation once it falls off the front page.
If there were a way to remove posts from the feed (either everything/local/subscribed or the community+everywhere) without destroying the post itself it would be nice too because you wouldn’t be deleting conversations. Then you could pin the other conversations on the first one.
I wanted to get into FPGAs when I was making some custom boards with MCUs but I really had a hard time finding a good idea for a starter project with them. How did you get started? Any recommendations?
What the fuck
in 2020 in which female passengers were subjected to invasive gynecological examinations.
authorities were looking for the mother of a newborn baby found abandoned in a Hamad International Airport trash can
they were taken off the flight to Sydney at Doha at gunpoint by guards and were searched without consent.
Did I wake up 2,000 years ago or something? Am I still on earth?
Qatar was “surprised and shocked” that Australia had rejected without explanation its application for additional services to Sydney
Woooow. I literally don’t know what to say.
I agree, and it drives me crazy when people say that about OCD. But I think there’s a gap between the extremes, and if I have the potential to be wrong, I’d rather be wrong by being validating.

(not arguing, just pondering) Actually now that I think about it, I don’t think it’s the opposite end of the spectrum at all, I think it’s actually the same thing. If you think about it both are coming from not understanding that the disorder is (in my awkward words) the exaggeration of normal human behavior, specifically the exaggeration. Being able to relate to it isn’t enough perspective alone.
Actually sometimes I do, because I have diabetes 😂
That’s… sad for him that his perspective is so small. Many people seem incapable of understanding things like this no matter what you say. Hopefully he doesn’t damage someone with his perspective.
I am not that experienced with EDs but I personally think the most important thing with most maintenance is not that you don’t regress, but that you get back on that damn horse when you fall off. You doing that shows self-awareness and willingness to fail and keep trying to work on yourself, which is true strength. So many people easily fall into a spiral of self-hatred and give up, but no, you’re doing the work, and it’s hard. I have good reason to believe in you too.
You can also call them for advice on how to help someone else who is struggling.
Yes. I’m not a mental healthcare provider and oddly there seems to be a little bit of variance depending on who you’re talking to, but I think the best way to separate the two is this (SI = suicidal ideation):
If you’re having SI of any type the best thing you can do is see a therapist, but obviously if it is dire or an emergency then a hospital is the answer. There are other treatment options at levels in between seeing a therapist weekly and going to a hospital that many people don’t know about (and a a surprising number of doctors don’t tell you about) that insurance should cover.
I have a lot of personal experience with this stuff and I’m happy to answer anything anyone is curious about.
Haha yeah, it’s funny how many of the biggest decisions in life end up being made on the spur of the moment when you have to rather than after careful thought and deliberation. Or what seem like small moments that suddenly become much bigger that you never forget. I’m not sure if I’m making sense but at least I get what you’re saying! 😜
I find frequently even people who have the same disability or an adjacent one can say some really ignorant stuff, almost as if their struggles gives them a license to judge others. Relating to others’ struggles is good and validating, but don’t let it turn into a comparison.
Even for myself, I didn’t understand the whole picture of what ptsd can do to you when I was dealing with just anxiety. Now that I’ve experienced it, I understand the fucking sheer terror that is living in hypervigilance mode, it really seems unfathomable if you haven’t been there. And I have no idea if I experience it like others do. Not saying one is worse than the other but they are not just variations of the same thing.
I’m looking forward to the world being a better place when people in general understand it’s best not to try and decide for someone else what their experiences mean to them, and nobody wins when you compare suffering. I hope we make a lot of progress in my lifetime.
I thought it was birds dancing that was for mating. But then again, I do dance for my girlfriend. Not great for mating, but she always laughs so I’ve got that going for me.
Watts in a resistive example like yours is Volts x Amps. I would have been able to much better answer this question a year ago so forgive me if I’m misremembering the specs but I’ll answer since nobody else has. Two things that suggest to me this might be a bad idea:
