Just a thought, but instead of a full windows install / live USB - what about a freedos live USB? You should be able to run exe files from there (assuming the bios exe does not need any GUI libraries).

How do you get the data on to the cloud storage? Maybe use something like restic, which can handle encryption, snapshots, etc.

Well, it’s a spectrum :) I have 4 ADHD people at home, all diagnosed and medicated, but they all behave differently. One has too many questions, another one none… 🤷

My wife reacts really well to medication - however, it took some time until she found the proper dosage. If she takes 20mg, it’s too little, and she just feels droopy. If she takes 30mg, it’s too much and she feels anxious. So one 25mg pill in the morning and another pill after lunch works really well for her (Ritalin). There are other variables, like when she is really tired or she’s on her period, too. What I want to say is that maybe 30mg is not right for you, try it out for a few days and discuss with your doctor, so if it didn’t work, adjust the dosage or change to something else.

I… guess? I don’t know how I would classify these games. But they all are able to steal from me 8h in a day, no issue :)

Project Zomboid, Rimworl, Dwarf Fortress, Stellaris, Starsector…

I don’t live so far north, but good, light, waterproof boots. Of course, everything else people recommended already - good gloves, socks, jacket, and layers. But for me personally, boots would be the most important.

My ADHD kids are not aggressive, on the contrary. And each one of them behaves and reacts differently, especially without/after medication.

I’ll try my best to give some answers.

1. Lack of focus, getting lost in thoughts, or hyper focusing on the wrong thing at the wrong time - my kids get up at 6:15am to catch the 7:25am to go to school, and somehow that’s still not enough time… Also, taking 4h to do homework that otherwise would take 30m.
2. Like I mentioned, my kids are not aggressive or hyperactive, they are on the other side of the scale - while my boy has a large group of friends, my middle daughter has none (she is also diagnosed with ASD), and it’s really difficult for her to fit in. My little daughter does have a bit of an extroverted personality, and she really tries to fit in and grab the attention of people, but most kids push back. She fits right in with the adults though, becoming fast friends with our (the adults) group of friends.
3. Nothing in regards to aggression, but my son and middle daughter go to therapy, my middle daughter also goes to group therapy (for kids with ASD). Also, they all take Ritalin in the morning, and that helped quite a bit, especially at school, but it was not a “fix”, just a helper.
4. It can be overwhelming at times - mood swings, overreacting to the smallest issue, crying for hours for not finishing the test in time, or forgetting the school account password… We have many talks, trying to reassure them as best as I can.
5. We did a lot of reading, from online articles to books about ADHD, talking to a couple psychiatrists, but probably the best resource was my wife’s own ADHD diagnosis. She did a lot of research!

3.5€ for a brand new cast iron wok. Instabuy.

I have been using an Android XiaomiTV, with SmartTube and Jellyfin, Netflix and Prime. I do have a pihole, though.

Someone said a slow cooker - I can also add a pressure cooker. Just add the ingredients, seal it, walk away, 30m-1h later your soup/stew/porridge or even rice is ready. No need to overthink it.

Cooking needs some practice and a bit of patience. I only learned to cook in my late 20s. In time I learned how long a particular ingredient needs to sit in the oven and at which temperature (it’s almost always 30m at 180-200°C), and which spice goes with which meat. I use a lot of canned veggies and readymade spice mixes - curry, chili con carne, they are so much easier this way. Also, make sure there is enough salt, the lack of salt can really make any food bland. Oh, and butter. You can never go wrong with butter. Fry your eggs in butter (lower temp, it burns quickly), add it to your boiled rice with a pinch of salt, it’s really versatile and adds a butt load of flavor.

Same for the Romanian “poimâine” (after tomorrow). We also have “alaltăieri” (the other yesterday). They are in use, quite common.

Fuzzel works great for me on Hyprland.

I really like Black Mirror. I watched a bunch of TV shows, started and left midway through others, but I always go back to Black Mirror. Like the creator said, it’s sci-fi techno dystopia. And he is working on the 7th season. One of the episodes will be a follow up to USS Callister. Awesome!

I tried playing a couple of times with others, it was not my thing… I personally prefer alone. I have a certain style, I like base building and hoarding, and I go for very long games, usually lasting months IRL. I put in more than 1000 hours over many years, and I never got bored of PZ :)

You can siphon gas with an empty bottle too, you no longer “need” a gas can. It holds a lot less gas, but would work in a pinch.

Pulp Fiction. Also, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. And Snatch. Also… aw man, there’s so many…

Check your pms.

That guide is great. Also, you can easily find some extra ram on eBay or Kleinanzeigen. I strongly recommend adding at least 4gb. Switching from a 1tb HDD to a 128-256gb SSD should also be pretty affordable and it will do wonders speed wise.
