Holy shit I just found a copy of my house key thats been missing for like a year - Lemmy.World
Its attatched to the toilet paper dispenser. Ive literally looked at it multiple
times a day for like 10 months and my brain never noticed Anyone else feel like
theyre one step from being blind? I always lose so much shit in plain site.
Sometimes I leave a wallet on my desk, which I use daily, and I can’t find it
for days. I’ll even MOVE IT and not realize its my wallet.
Do you think increasing ADHD diagnosis are due to better detection or "tiktok"

Do you think increasing ADHD diagnosis are due to better detection or "tiktok"? - Lemmy.World
I see a lot of people blaming tiktok and “brain rot” content for the increasing
ADHD diagnoses, but I think its a matter of better detection, similar to how OCD
and autism diagnosis have increased too.
Also as someone with ADHD, it feels like shit that it could be “my fault” or
that I have brainrot.
Is it just me, or when you become "the tech guy", family and friends become extremely entitled to your help?

Is it just me, or when you become "the tech guy", family and friends become extremely entitled to your help? - Lemmy.World
I wish I never told anyone I worked or studied tech. Especially older family and
friends, because their requests for help are relentless.
A lot of friends are chill with it, and I don’t mind doing a little bit of help,
but sometimes people are who are OFFENDED when you don’t want to help. In the
same way a contractor friend won’t remodel your home for free, I am not going to
fix every single issue you have with your computer for free. I’m happy to give
advice, but i’m not going to work for hours without pay to fix everything.
How to deal with Mom who CANNOT learn how to use a password manager, but demands I "fix it"

How to deal with Mom who CANNOT learn how to use a password manager, but demands I "fix it" - Lemmy.World
I’ve become the tech guy, and family are extremely entitled to my services. My
mom especially. BTW I can’t cut her out, because I still live with her and she
EXPECTS me to fix anything computer related. She won’t take no for an answer.
I’ve tried to keep track of her passwords with a password manager, I’ve spent
literally 8 hours in a single day filling out captchas and replacing passwords,
and I’ve spent even more time trying to teach my mom how to use the manager.
She CAN’T learn it, and always makes a new password, which she doesnt keep track
of and expects me to fix it. What the hell do it do? She uses firefox, with auto
refill on, but it doesn’t autofill on her iphone.
One thing that I hate about social media is hate towards blank profiles.

One thing that I hate about social media is hate towards blank profiles. - Lemmy.World
Firstly, I understand why, most blank profiles are bots, but it’s so frustrating
trying to dm people, and interact in communities when you are mostly a lurker.
Now I’m not a lurker here, but on other places it’s very annoying when you just
want to talk to a specific person. Reddit is especially dreadful for new
accounts or lurkers. Karma requirement’s are such bullshit.

Should Ukraine build the bomb? How would you feel if they did? - Lemmy.World
Trump has stated he will cut American aid to Ukraine, which makes a majority of
total aid. Recently Zelensky stated that if Ukraine’s only hope for sovereignty
is its own nuclear arsenal, they will build it.
Why on gods green earth do people buy gift cards?

Why on gods green earth do people buy gift cards? - Lemmy.World
Utterly stupid little things, its money that is less useful in EVERY situation
and expires! Even at the store where you can use it, what do you do with the
money that’s leftover but too little to spend? Especially at expensive places,
you could very well end up with 10-20$ OF YOUR OWN MONEY, that you can’t even
use! I was given a dunkin giftcard for volunteering at a repair cafe. First of
all I’m on a diet but secondly I stuffed it in my wallet so quickly I completely
forgot about it. The day I remember and go through the trouble of attending such
a wretched establishment I was told it expired after I finished giving my order!
After such bother to try to use this cursed thing I refuse to return fruitless
from my endeavors so I paid with my own cash.
It is now, sulking into my hashbrowns and Boston cream do I realize I am now
poorer, fatter and fucking miserable. FUCK gift cards.
How to find interesting friends as a young adult.

How to find interesting friends as a young adult. - Lemmy.World
I have many interests, if not too many. From cooking, woodwork and computers.
Many of my friends are academically very successful but are frankly painfully
boring and I sometimes feel isolated around them.
I like to cook when they hang at my house, I’ll try to teach them how, some
basic tips, etc. As soon as I glanced towards them again I realized they walked
off.
This summarizes a lot of our interactions. As we get to a topic I understand and
can speak passionately about, they sort of turn off. They talk to each other
fine, but it’s often internet drama, school drama or sports.
I’m not in college\classes and it seems almost impossible to meet others,
especially others that are interesting and curious. I find myself bonding most
to adults but it’s isolating I can’t find others my age.
What's a long standing personal or family mystery that occupies your mind?

What's a long standing personal or family mystery that occupies your mind? - Lemmy.World
Is there ever something that happened to a family member that you will ever
know? Has anyone gone missing under mysterious circumstances? Is the place next
to your great grandmother’s friend’s dad’s house totally haunted?
