I’ve been using gsudo for a long time, its a game changer.

Came here to say this

This is why you have Time Traveler weekends.

And sometimes we must seek alternative pathways to success, and recognize them as such. Data stopped trying to play to win and found success in playing to not lose. He rejected the stated objective in favor of his own goals, and in turn was rewarded with new perspectives and greater understanding.

Sometimes the stated objectives can confine us to narrow thinking and obscure other possibilities. One man’s draw is sometimes another man’s victory. It is all a matter of perspective.

I need to watch DS9 again…

Came here to say basically this. Vyvanse destroys my apatite! Without it I'm a snack fiend. It's the only real "downside" and not an awful one at that.

I did learn the hard way that it does not mix with stuff like Dayquil. If you don't wait an hour between each you'll make yourself super sick and are 100% going to projectile vomit minutes after taking it.

It’s funny, when you explain it, my IT hat goes on and I totally get it lol. I guess the context felt different enough that I didn’t get it. But I work with Windows domains all day and that’s exactly how DNS operates in that environment.

Ultimately I think for a tunnel you’ll end up with your records pointing to your VPS. So you’ll have a *.domain.tld CNAME record and maybe a @ CNAME record and your nginx server on the other end of the tunnel would handle the routing.

Cool bot!

I saw this and I think it’s what I’m going to do too. I figure I can just configure it with my existing nginx information and go from there.

So here is a question: does it need to be a sub domain? Can’t I redirect all traffic to the VPS? If I wanted to host a HTML website at my root domain and have it served by nginx for example, couldn’t I do that?

I just see subdomain mentioned in the guides / tools I see but I don’t understand why exactly.

Lol they’ll keep literal Nazi subs up but will ban communist subs. “could be considered left leaning” pffffft.

I doubt he’s an American.

Even in the United States after the revolution they implemented authoritarian measures to ensure the security of their revolution. They sized the land of Loyalists and effectively drove them out if the country. They killed Loyalists, who were their fellow colonists, for their opposition to the revolution. They attempted tirelessly for peaceful transition to independence but the Monarchy refused them and ignored them until they were left with no choice but to begin violent armed revolution. All revolutions are authoritarian in their nature. The American revolutionaries were seizing their power by force and imposing their self actualized authority over the colonies in pursuit of their own economic and social freedoms.

The United States is authoritarian and many of the same ways that socialist states are authoritarian. If you don’t believe me, look at the history of the socialist movement in America. Look at what the state was and still is willing to do to its own citizens for criticizing and organizing against the capitalist and imperialist system that the state runs on.

Are you here to tell me that McCarthyism and the red scare were democratic in their execution? That they were in line with the Free Speech and Free Expression ethos the United States projects? They were not times of political democratic freedom. Even in recent times you have leaders of movements critical of the state being killed for their political positions. Students killed during the anti-war movement in the 60s and 70s. Anti-War activists driven out of their employment and careers over their opposition to the state and it’s actions in Vietnam.

So what do you call authoritarianism under capitalism then? Democracy??

If your not trying to recover data off anything with a hard drive your doing it wrong!

One of the things you realize at some point is that your brain craves structure. Maybe it’s not true for everyone but that is my experience.

The hard part is, your brain wants to do the most rewarding thing in the moment. This is bad for building and maintaining structure.

So, what I might suggest is this:

• Schedule the things you don’t like doing. This could be anything. Showering, taking out the trash, doing homework, checking in on friends and family. Use your calendar, or an alarm on your phone, whatever will get your attention.
• Get a white board if you can. The more physical real world items you can use to help you track stuff, the better (your phone is a trap!). My whiteboard is right next to my bathroom. Put it “in your way”, a place where you can’t help but see it. I track today’s date, so I’m forced to update it every day (I don’t always, but seeing just the old forces me to update it). I track a medication streak, to help me be aware of how consistent I’m being. Every Sunday I look at my calendar on my phone and write down the next week events, so I can prepare and not be surprised.
• Find someone to help you initiate the important stuff or be there with you while you do the important stuff. Brushing my teeth regularly was almost impossible for most of my life. My SO would just do it at whatever time each day, and it seemed to come naturally. Long story short I asked her to do it with me every day. It was, embarrassing to admit at first, but now I feel weird NOT doing it.

You can’t plan every moment of your life, but you can build a plan that applies every day. Stopping to plan for “tomorrow” every day is exhausting, but planning for the week is easier. Also, eliminate as much choice as you can. If you feel fine eating the same thing for breakfast and lunch every day because it’s easier that way then do it. Don’t let anyone make you feel shame over it.

I also like to reaffirm a montra that comes from addiction recovery that I think applies to people with ADHD. Instead of thinking, “I have to do these things forever”, I think “I just have to do these things today”. Don’t worry about tomorrow, just work on today. If you’re keeping track, you’ll be surprised with how consistent you can really be, and it’ll hurt less when you slip up.

Oh this is very cool

Don’t join the largest instances then. Lemmy.world is over loaded and mastodon.social is historically overloaded.

Haha this comment is keeping it real. That’s a good point. I’ve never looked into a plexshare before. I’ll have to look it up.
