    This is exactly how I feel looking at this “meme”. It’s all money related and feels like it’s encouraging people to say things like “oops I forgot to cancel my Amazon prime subscription, I must have ADHD haha”. We live in overwhelming times, too much information everywhere, too many subscriptions, too much stuff with instant access, but nobody ever mentions that.

    People used to get their news from a newspaper once a week. There weren’t 10-20 “subscriptions” to keep track of. You couldn’t pull a thing out of your pocket to relieve boredom or sadness or loneliness, and people couldn’t contact you expecting a response within an hour. We’re not used to this biologically…

    To me, this meme seems to be making fun of ADHD more than anything.




  • Yeah I’m gonna be completely honest, Steam has pretty garbage info related to this considering how well it seems to work for me. They should really make it more obvious.

    As long as Steam is running and signed in on your PC, after you first set things up, you should be able to pull up the Steam Link app on your phone, TV, etc and connect to your PC. They have to be on the same network until 1st time setup, then you can connect from anywhere.

    I think there are some “home streaming” options in the Steam settings that let you set things like “boot to desktop/steam/Big Picture” so you can set it up how you want.

    If you’re trying to run it off wifi it might not be great (it’ll definitely still work), but I’ve had good luck on a wired connection.




  • That’s what people have been saying about every step of the musk acquisition process and yet still people use Twitter. Thinking back to the Facebook privacy controversy years back, everybody still uses Facebook. There can be an infinite amount of red flags and warnings, but these websites are such a huge part of some people’s lives that none of it matters to them, unfortunately.


  • This is the same issue the LGBT community suffers from, as well as people of color, people with accents, etc. People always find ways to make themselves feel superior to others by pointing out something different. You choosing to wear a mask just makes those kinds of people laugh because they either 1. Feel better than you for not wearing masks or 2. They are uneducated/ignorant and follow others’ opinions without question.

    I suppose the only way to turn it back around on them would be to try scaring them by saying you have something contagious like strep throat, or worse, so they’ll shut up and leave you alone. Otherwise my only other advice would be to just do your best to not engage with these types of people.
