Yeah, sensory overloads and interuptions are a bitch to deal with. If I am deep into something and someone comes up to me to talk about anything not related to tge thing I am doing, I simply can't focus on what they are saying. It takes a soling 2-3 mins to relax.

Excuse me, what?

The third one is wrong because balls are colder than the rest of your body (around 34C). Might be some memes from the femcel community.

I think you will be hard pressed to find Republicans on Lemmy. There might be some, but not that many.

After seeing the priginal I was hoping someone would make this kind of shitpost!

[–] some_random_nick 2 points 1 week ago

Thanks for the honest response, I appreciate it. I did try to communicate it, but it didn't quite get to her. All I can do is try again.

If it were just to solve this one, I would be happy. The other stuff I can live with, as I have all these years. I'm not happy about it, but it doesn't hinder me too much.

This is exactly how I feel. Just a sudden and uncontrolable outburst. It's a stark contrast to how I am usually. I conciously avoid getting into any situation which might cause such behavior just soother don't percieve me as weird or dangerous.

Thanks for the feedback. I was excepting such a response, but one has to keep on hoping.

 

Hi everyone!

I think this needs a bit of backstory before I get into the actual problem. There will be a TL;DR at the end.

I am in my 30s and for some time now, after an encounter with an acquaintance from abroad who had been diagnosed with ADHD, I have been suspecting I might have it too. All the struggles and hardships he faced in his life overlap quite a bit with my own experiences. At first I didn't think much of it, but found it rather strange as I always envisioned ADHD just as the physically hyperactive part and never really looked into it. But on multiple occasions, especially after joining Lemmy, there were popping up posts from the ADHDmemes community which were scary relatable. There were also some youtube videos, where creators I follow started to talk about their experiences and the process of getting diagnosed and how everything after that went for them. Considering all of that, I am fairly certain that I fall into this category as it would explain quite a bit about myself and why I do things the way I do.

In my current relationship we hit a brick wall. I am very sensitive to stress and when in a stressful situation I tend to have outbursts of anger. Nothing violent, just verbally condescending. Exhibit A: "So, what do you plan to do about it?" "Do I look like I have a fucking clue what to do?!" or Exhibit B: "So, what now?" "I can't talk about it now or the next few days." (might be bad examples, but I can't come up with anything better)

This, of course, has led to one too many fights and problems not just with my partner, but with parents and family (including all the other things associated with ADHD as I found here https://lemmy.world/post/24554298).

Getting a diagnosis in my country (non-EU) would be hard. There seems to be just one doctor who does it in another city (I don't think any of it would be even covered with healthcare) and from googling around it seems that medications is rather scarce. After doing one online questionnaire, which someone in a video suggested, I got a pretty low score meaning I don't have it.

Would going thru the effort and trying to get medication solve my stress related issues? Or would it just make it bearable? The ultimatum was clear - either solve it or gtfo. Talking to her about my suspicions about the causes didn't seem to yield any results as it is just a suspicion.

Before anyone suggests it, I went to therapy for a few years and it has helped greatly, but with (likely) faulty hardware there is only so much software trickery you can pull off.

TL;DR: I am undiagnosed and therefore unmedicated. Partner set an ultimatum to get my sensitivity to stress under control or we are splitting for good. Has medication helped anyone with this specific issue?

Yesterday I came back to my issue and decided to try LazyVim just to see what would happen since it comes with Mason. It worked, first try. Both on Linux and Windows. I seriously have no damn clue why it wasn't working standalone... It has to be something with Plug

[–] some_random_nick 40 points 1 week ago (2 children)

There's even a tooth emoji and somehow we all missed it

 

After failing to get some plugins to work with VS Code I decided that perhaps a simpler editor like Neovim would be a nice candidate for simple programs. after watching a few tutorials and getting myself familiar with the plugin manager ecosystem, I decided to settle on vim-plug.

The thing is, I can't get Mason to work at all. People recommended it as a simple solution for managing LSPs and it seemed reasonable enough to try. Mason installs, but no Mason-specific command is recognized by Neovim. I can launch the UI manually with require("mason.ui").open(), but that's that. No list of LSPs I can download, just a blank UI. I have tried reinstalling, downloading an older version, sanity checking everything 10 times. All other plugins I have work as expected. The only other thing which doesn't seem to work is showcmd which, in theory, should suggest commands as I type them out.

I can't find any open issue on github regarding this problem. Google search didn't yield any useful results. My only guess would be that there needs to be a specific order in which I have to load/initialize this plugin.

Here is what my files look like:

  1. init.vim
call plug#begin()
Plug 'williamboman/mason.nvim'
Plug 'williamboman/mason-lspconfig.nvim'
Plug 'neovim/nvim-lspconfig'

-- then some other stuff like `Telescope` 
--     which has no interaction with `Mason`
  1. init.lua (the whole file)
require("mason").setup()
require("mason-lspconfig").setup()

require("telescope").load_extension("file_browser")
require("telescope").load_extension("project")
require("telescope").load_extension("ui-select")
require("telescope").load_extension("frecency")
require("telescope").load_extension("media_files")

require('nvim-web-devicons').setup()
require('mini.icons').setup()

Any ideas or suggestions besides trying lazy-vim or another plugin manager? Tnx!

 

While I was adding Golang to the PATH my terminal (Konsole) suddenly stopped recognizing basic commands like nano and ls. I restared my PC and after logging back in (X11) KDE started throwing errors because it wasn't able to find any program I tried to launch. Konsole is gone. I can't open any program whatsoever (Firefox, Discover etc.). Trying to log in into Wayland just throws a black screen. After a few more reatarts I decided to use the terminal from the login screen, but it is broken as well. ls not found, nano and vim don't exist. So far I can use pwd and cd.

What the hell is wrong here? Is it hardware failure (bad SSD)? Is there anything I can attempt to recover the system?

Hello,

Recently I was fed up with bad performance in CS2 on Fedora 41 (KDE/Wayland/kernel 6.11.7-300) and started googling around. With my RX6600 I was able to hit 60fps on 1080p/low, but it would often go as low as 40. Trying to change te resolution would cause some strange mouse issues where the game wouldn't let me look to the right or down at all. After reading some posts and getting opposing info, I decided to dnf install plasma-workspaces-x11 and test things out. The X11 session doubled the FPS like it was nothing. A constant 120fps with the possibility to go even higher. Is there something that I could try and fix in Wayland to achieve the same level of performance? As far as I understood, KDE might axe X11 support in the upcomign releases and I wouldn't want to be left behind.

I don't know when this happened. There was a system update a few days ago which went fine. Two days ago I wanted to download something onto one of my HDDs and got an I/O error. After investigating I found out that I no longer am the owner of any of my drives and can't create/delete any files. Chmod/chown didn't help. Editing the fstab file didn't help since it had the exact same contens as when everything worked. Shuffeling exec,rw around has no effect. Mounting/unmounting didn't do anything. Phisically removing the drives also didn't work. Adding a completely new drive automatically set it to restricted. How the hell does soemthing like this happen? I don't want to do a system wipe.

Edit: Windows is to blame

It appears Windows did something to the drives the last time I used it which messed up the partitin tables and prevented Linux from mounting them correctly. After poking around in the journalctl like suggested I found an entry with the error message. Googling brought me to an arch forum post with the same problem. All that had to be done was to go back into Windows and run shutdown /s /f /t 0 in cmd/powershell. Link to the post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=231375

Tnx everyone for the assistance!

Hello everyone.

After I changed the default font in KDE Plasma 6.1.4 on Bazzite to Atkinson Hyperlegible, all desktop icons have weird line spacing in the name. Notice how .png is hanging behind tge icon for TextFile sh. Changing the font size does nothing. Only if I switch back to the defaults does it fix itself. Any idea how I can keep Atkinson as a font and fix this issue?

Edit: In edit mode (right click on desktop) I can set the Text lines to 1 which makes things bearable. Still no way to manage the weird spacing issue. Seems that not all icon are affected. Couldn't find a pattern.

 

Does anyone know any additional sites for downloading ebooks in German besides anna's and libgen? I am mostly interested in sci-fi/fantasy novels.
