    that's the one. As a kid I never understood why punishments even exist. People being mad at me was already unbearable torture

    I have parents that love me to bits, but their strategy to get me to do my homework was... adversarial? It felt like they were checking my performance, just like the teachers were. It didn't feel like they were on my side, even though I'm sure they were.

    Getting told off even gently felt like an unbearable punishment for some reason. I read something recently about adhd folks being more sensitive to negative interactions?

    And that's how I became a pathological liar and master of masking!

    the amount of batteries we'd need would require an insane amoint of lithium, plus lithium ion batteries don't last that long and need to be replaced after a few years of heavy use

    There's nothing wrong with getting a battery, especially if you have solar panels. What I'm saying is we can't cover everybodys needs with them right now, both economically and materially.

    What industry are you talking about?

    Managing an energy grid is an incredible feat of engineering and the fact that some countries have basically 24/7 constant voltage electricity is nothing short of a miracle.

    And yes I will trust the academics and engineers who have spent ages documenting these processes and building the solutions. I studied this for a while at university. Every professor in that field is an environmentalist and guess what they still taught us about the issues with solar and wind instability and energy storage.

    most armchair ass comment I read all day lmao

    The negative prices indicate instability in the whole energy system, that's not necessarily a capitalism thing. Don't get me wrong I hate capitalism and love sun and wind energy, but many people are ignorant about the fluctuations and the fact that energy storage is not a solved problem right now.

    You gotta press that spot behind ur balls, kinda moving back to front, and it comes out. This secret arcane knowledge was lost for millenia in my lineage, no longer passed down man to man. A kind stranger on the internet shared it with me.

    In this thread: a bunch of armchair energy scientists who think they've solved the energy storage problem all on their own.

    This is like wandering through Camden Market in London wearing a gold Rolex.

    Hey friends! Basically, here is my problem. I open the launcher menu (or KRunner) and start typing. Let's say I type "firefox", and hit Enter. The launcher menu is very slow. It often opens "Files" instead, because that pops up after I type the first two letters. Basically this means I need to wait a second for the launcher to finish searching, show me firefox, and then press enter. This is frankly infuriating. Every other launcher on any other desktop or WM does not have this issue. I have experienced this on two different machines running both Plasma 5 and 6, on different distros, both are beefy machines. I'm sure there is a way to avoid it, does anybody know?

    Hey, I've been hearing a LOT about the xz backdoor. Crazy story, but rather than reading 10 different articles about it from 3 days ago when the story was quite new, does anybody know a high quality write-up that has all the juicy details and facts? I really like in-depth guides that cover every aspect of the story. Thanks in advance guys!

    After years of suspecting ADHD (and two decades of struggling), I decided that maybe I have ADHD. While I wait for an answer from the psychologists, I decided to take an online ADHD self-diagnosis questionnaire out of curiosity. I found myself mousing over and highlighting the text in one of the questions over and over, thinking about something my girlfriend told me the other day, struggling to actually read the question. When I finally read the question, it was: *How often are you easily distracted by external stimuli, like something in your environment or unrelated thoughts?* Safe to say I started laughing out loud. Starting to feel pretty certain that I'm one of you :P (I am still mid questionnaire)
