I had a IoT device “lightbulb” that would trim any spaces left after the passkey, problem being I intentionally had a blank space at the end of my passkey. Took a while to realize till I counted the little stars hiding the recorded passkey.

My friends high end sony system with square speakers (yeah I’m old) kept poping the speaker coils out of their sockets at 70% power. His 600$ sony dvd player would not play burned DVDs. My Phillips amp would power my realistic home made speakers up to 100% and they could still take a lot more (200W RMS amp and 275W designed speakers) and my weird named 65$ DVD would even play DIVX movies on burned DVDs. Fuck Sony.

VieuxQueb@lemmy.cato Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Adobe stole my creative suiteEnglish42·11 months agoWhat’s fumny to me is I remember watching a computer show on TV in late 90s they where interviewing an Adobe representative about the new Photoshop 5.0…
The TV host asked what adobe though about pirated copies and the representative said on LIVE TV that Photoshop price was for professional who make a living out of Photoshop and that any hobbyist had nothing to fear about using a pirated copy as it only served to get more people knowledgable about Photoshop and if these started doing business in photography and neede Photoshop they would then pay for it so to not be unprofessional.
Oh does it ever.
I run the pie with a Kingston 100Gig ssd with a usb adaptor.
I used to be torrenting all the time and can adapt to new software and techniques easily. I also played with tech all my life from basic electronics, computers hardware and software etc… Lately I kind of don’t watch movies and have Tidal for music so I just don’t use PC’s much other than playing YouTube on my TV before bed.
Being interested is not my problem, the more I want to read something the harder it is to not drift in my mind and have to restart a few lines before. And after a few pages I just start to nod and fall asleep. It’s hard to describe. The worst is even if I power through a book I can’t remember it the next day. Some events might bring back part of the story in my mind but it’s never enough to even make a quote. It’s the same for movies although I dont fall asleep I can’t remember it the next day. I hate that, and it’s not like I have no memory at all I will remember stupid shit other did or where they left stuff etc but the more I need or want to remember something the more I risk forgetting.
Will give a look tonight, my laptop died but I have a rpi4 running that might be enough to sail the high seas again for this old sailor. It’s been a looooong time since but I will find my path once again.
Not in the States but thanks for sharing anyway, it may help others.
Thanks I will try it when I can afford it. I just put it on my wishlist.
Fuck off, you think you know me ? You would have not made it having been through half of my life. I keep fighting in hopes that things get better and KNOW my shortcomings. If you think I haven’t tried reading books you are way off track. I have had a huge collection of books and LOVED reading but the fact is it takes me over a year to read a normal book as I fall asleep after two pages and have to reread every line multiple times and of course I don’t remember the line I just read but you think that everyone is the way you are and assume. I guess you think I’m a lazy fuck who never tries anything to get better do you ? Fuck off and goodbye!
I can’t focus enough to read a book and of I try hard enough I fall asleep after page two. Guess it’s not for me.

VieuxQueb@lemmy.cato ADHD memes@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Structure is a double-edged swordEnglish9·1 year agoAnd was often left undiagnosed in the past. I know I probably have it hard and somewhere on the autism spectrum. (My estranged father, sister and nephew all have been diagnosed at varying degrees/combinations). But I can’t even get a appointment at my doctors office, there is never availability and I tend to stop trying after a few times until it bugs me again. It’s like the system here is made to weed out people like me.
It’s kind of nice to know why I felt/feel so inadequate. But it also hurt to know I will never feel normal. At 46 I feel so at a lost at a chance of a better future. I fucked it up so often, have no savings, have to work two jobs to barely get by (keep on doing bad financial decisions) etc… I always hope to win the lottery (I almost never play it) just to not have the stress of life catching up to me and going back on the streets.
