I don’t think that you understand this very well. You definitely don’t need a monopoly in the video media platform space in order to restrict competition to an unfair degree. For example, the forced sale of Fox Sports to Bally in 2021 by the courts in order to retain a small modicum of competition in broadcasting despite the existence of other networks. Maybe you should look into it a bit more before you declare it’s not an issue?

Okay, I hope you can find some kind of other solution then. Didn’t realize you aren’t able to leave your home. Sorry for trying to help you?

I can assure you that you can still access the used market with these limitations since you can arrange to meet others at a public place nowhere near your home. A lot of the groups and sales are on Facebook though, so that’s a huge bummer.

But you could also check your local vaping meetups, flea markets, or pawn shops, as well as classifieds websites such as Kijiji or Craigslist (those are the 2 most well-known where I live, your local area may use other websites). You should be able to entirely avoid shipping if vaping is common where you live.

Have you considered checking out the used market? I haven’t seriously vaped since 2016 when I used it to quit smoking (and all my vape stuff got stolen in a move in 2017), but I remember that the used mod scene was pretty damn good back in the day.

I have a OBS Cube-X that’s still going strong and does everything I want it to, so a used single-18650 like that might fit the bill depending on your needs and is probably way less than $100.

The earliest he could possibly have been born is 1976. Not exactly able to go clubbing during 1980-1989.

“I’m in my 40s and wasn’t old enough to experience the 1980s gay social scene, but I feel confident in saying trans people weren’t there!”

What a loser.

This sucks ass. I’m a lifetime Plex Pass holder, so this doesn’t affect me yet, but who’s to say they won’t fuck over lifetime users sooner rather than later?

Honestly, this made me consider setting up Jellyfin. What the fuck?

Back in 2009, I had changed my name “too many times” on my Facebook account and had to verify my name using my ID. I (14 at the time) just sent a quick Photoshop job and they accepted it, no problem.

I can imagine the people doing the verification don’t get paid very well even today.

I immediately get uncomfortable and defensive and try to explain / find excuses for why I did this thing.

Stop doing that. When you notice you are doing it, stop. Say “I’m sorry,” and try to come up with solutions instead of excuses.

Like if you forgot to empty the dishwasher, create an alarm or recurring calendar event so you don’t forget again. Don’t just say you forgot and you couldn’t help it.

This is related to ADHD, sure, but it’s not because of ADHD. It’s because you’re making the choice to excuse yourself instead of actually listening to your partner’s concerns and trying to change your behaviour.

Try conduwuit instead of Synapse if you get stuck. For me, it was really simple to install and the dev is really nice.

I got a Matrix server set up with conduwuit but the problem is that none of my friends are on there so I don’t use it. The one friend I made the damn thing for so we could chat just started going through a bunch of personal stuff so now it won’t be used for a while. FML.

Honestly, a lot of the time ADHD can manifest as depression and anxiety and doctors are way more likely to diagnose you with those because it’s more obvious. All they have to go on is how you tell them you’re feeling and specialists are in short supply. You can’t really “feel” executive dysfunction or persistent task avoidance.

I understand (and probably she does too) that TikToks obviously can’t diagnose a person, but neither can you and even doctors make mistakes out of ignorance. You should apologize and just listen instead of trying to help her figure things out. Women already get under-diagnosed and told they’re imagining things and “not to worry,” so just be a friend.

Increasing a dose several times and/or changing medications entirely is unfortunately just part of treating conditions that respond to medication (especially ones that are often misunderstood like ADHD), but what’s right for one person isn’t necessarily right for you; your concerns and emotions are valid, but questions about dosages are best answered by a physician.

Exactly. I’ve been with my wife for nearly 9 years in a partnership where we both try to leverage our strengths, and we have a similar setup, so I wanted to go to bat for the both of us, so to speak.

I’m sick and tired of people assuming I don’t carry my weight just because I need reminders about certain things and help with appointments. Let’s be real and admit that ADHD is a disability that prevents you from doing (some) stuff.

I don’t just “let her clean up after me” and neither do you, it’s annoying to me that you specifically didn’t mention cleaning and they got on their high horse anyway.

I don’t think they even mentioned cleaning in the comment. They mentioned “long-term stuff,” “organization,” and “creating structure,” which I would think of as scheduling, shopping/task lists, birthdays/anniversaries, confirming appointments, checking in to make sure tasks are done, reminders, etc.

Yeah, I think the military is the only environment where your entire schedule is planned for you.

If OP can’t hire a personal assistant then this is the only option if they want 24/7 scheduling managed by another person or group.

Unless you want to join a farming co-op, OP? Requires money and effort on your part but no risk of being deployed overseas. Less rigid scheduling but lots of stuff to do that will dominate your time.

Ah, that would do it! Thanks for the information.

That’s interesting, I wonder why no one in these comments mentioned it if it’s a bit farther along than Jellyfin. Maybe just good word-of-mouth marketing?

I’m seeing a lot of love for Jellyfin in the comments. Seems like Jellyfin is finally mature enough to give a real shot.

Does anyone know how Emby is doing in relation to Plex feature parity?

It was a cool idea, but I could never get it to sync everyone’s playback properly without constant buffering for all involved. We just sync manually by counting down from 3.

I love oat milk and so does my wife, but because she also likes it and it’s expensive she only lets me use it in oatmeal, which I think defeats the point. It’s really good in cereal too, but I don’t really eat cereal much.
