While you're right that it's not an explicit ADHD thing, it is very much a symptom of it. How To ADHD made a video about motivation and points out some of the emotional aspects of it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OM0Xv0eVGtY which can cause the problematic low self-esteem and people-pleasing behaviour. But there has been a lot of connections with ADHD and Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria which can further connect to the behaviours in the OP.

Another good Additude article was written from a question sent in, "How can I stop people-pleasing at work?".

In short: Everyones ADHD affects everyone differently but this definitely has strong connections to ADHD.

I really really like this. Especially the sentiment of the text.

For the past few months I've been cripplingly focused on my homelab environment trying to perfect it and fix issues only to find new issues and when I'm not I keep trying to find things to fix with it. It takes out a lot of what I should be doing in my day to day.

If darker coloured materials get hotter in the sun faster, will a display with the screen on or off change how quickly it heats up? (sopuli.xyz)
 

To clarify, if the display is showing a white image will it heat up less in any measurable way compared to if it's off and just showing black?

Dan... I fucking love you. Thank you for this writeup. Not only is it helpful but it gives me encouragement to continue finding ways and figure things out.

I couple years back when I did my photography education we had an assignment to create a photo book as our final "exam" thing. I decided to document and show the daily life of a blind man and his tools and what he's had to go through as his blindness got worse over the years. He showed me how he uses his computer and phone and such so I really really saw the importance of accessibility.

Somewhat luckily I've been able to keep the forms somewhat sane due to using component libraries which implement accessibility well. I always make my things in SvelteKit which does have good support for accessibility and I always keep my colours contrasty with as close to as AAA as possible because it's easier on my own eyes too hahaha.

There's a national deaf-blind association nearby and I've been thinking of going there to chat about accessibility and website usage with them one day.

I'm working on digitizing the book I made into a website and of course want to make that website extroniously accessible so even a blind person can hear through descriptive wording of what's happening in the images. I also plan to make a scrolly-type thing using as little JS as possible which is nicely achievable now with the CSS scroll modifiers that's been added over the years.

It's going to be exciting to see how everything will work out. I can't thank you enough, while my only computer is a Steam Deck where running VMs is a bit so and so I'm gonna see if I can use some public computer or see if someone in the association can help me test things out and fix things from there.

One thing I've had troubles with when trying to implement accessibility is in web dev. There's so many attribute tags and I think a few different software based standards as well? I'm not entirely sure. The documentation on it felt a bit hard to follow and implement. Then I'm not sure how to go about testing it fully either without having those proprietary softwares either. I'm on an all Linux machine and the only accessibility software I know of is Orca and it's so and so last time I tried it.

While I slowly figure that out however I make sure to follow tag recommendations and keep things in sections, only one h1 tag per page, descriptive and short alt tags, and so forth. At least that helps a tiny bit.

Knox Karaktär Red, really nice berry flavour but also manages to be very bitter when in for long. (sopuli.xyz)
 

I can still heavily recommend it tho, it's also on the cheaper side of snus here!

Steam Deck as a laptop replacement? (sopuli.xyz)

I've been thinking about this for a while. With the repairability of the steam deck and the power available to it, it seems like a no brainer to use it for a bit of school work or casual browsing, Discord etc. Like you would a normal desktop.

There's a new product type popping up called LapDock that's basically a hollowed out laptop but often with a giant battery, UPerfect has one and as well as the NexDock and they seem promising.

My personal biggest gripe is screen resolution and colour accuracy, as well as battery life. As I also do photography colour accuracy would be a great plus for me and as for resolution, I've been using 2k and higher screens for years and going back to 1080p seems like a bit of a turn off. However, UPerfect has monitor only types but having to set that up ontop of a mouse and keyboard while out and about seems less than ideal in comparison to a laptop.

Any thoughts on this? Anyone who's tried it? Anyone who've tried desktop mode on high Res screens and seen any downsides, stutters, playback trouble, etc?

Edit:

I went out and bought myself a USB-C Hub with a PD port, HDMI and 2 USB to get a feel for the desktop experience on my TV at home. Since I do most of my work related things in Windows I installed it on a separate partition using GParted to shrink the home folder and then went through the Windows installer. After installing Valves drivers from their help page without errors everything seemed to work absolutely amazingly!

Everything from 4K playback to Windows animations all goes smoothly. It's a trouble free Windows installation which from my previous experiences is a nice change of pace. The only hiccups I can notice is the occasional stutter and some Windows feeling laggy when resizing and moving, mainly the settings window and other WinUI software with lots of detailing and graphics to them.

I tried installing Deathloop through Xbox Game Pass and that worked wonderfully too. It installed quickly and I tried setting the resolution to 4K and got a solid 15 FPS! I tried 1440p as well and got around 30 and then went to 1080p where I got around 45. Not quite enough for me as I get slight headaches when below 60 but good enough I feel like. In the end for gaming it doesn't really matter since I have handheld for that. Alternatively up-scaling.

As I've tried the Windows experience on the Steam Deck now I'm gonna continue my experimenting with SteamOS and see how that goes. My biggest issue so far has been that the USB-C Hub in Windows works perfectly at 4K 60Hz but SteamOS doesn't seem to be detecting the 60Hz mode at all when the screen is at 4K. I'm gonna troubleshoot and see what I can find. If anyone has had any similar issues and know how to resolve them any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

All in all the desktop experience on the Steam Deck is amazingly smooth. Truly feels like a proper Desktop when things are setup the way I need them to be and I couldn't be happier. The question for a laptop replacement is still in the air for me however. Now that I know that the desktop experience will be as smooth as it is I'm wondering which right way to go about it would be. As a lot of people in the comments on this thread and others mention that the build quality of the NexDock is absolutely terrible, a portable monitor seems to be the better way. I suppose in the end it would boil down to either living with bad build quality to get the more seamless experience. or chucking along a bluetooth mouse and keyboard with a portable monitor which could potentially not be too big of a hassle depending on how lazy I'm feeling during the days.

More thoughts would be welcome! Especially if there's any other users who have any experience with external displays and how they're using them!

Recently I've tried One's selection. This is by far my most favourite so far! (sopuli.xyz)
 

I really enjoyed its hint of bitterness while still keeping it sweet and tasteful. It's very strong in aroma and taste and unlike most berry flavoured snus it doesn't lose the taste too quickly!

I've also tried One vit which is also berry/fruit based and while the aroma and taste isn't as strong as One Red it's still a lot better than some others!

I find this amazing. I hope Lemmy takes over as the one Reddit alternative. As I've been experimenting with it today I think it's on an amazing growth path and hopefully more streamlined communities will be setup too!
