This week mine was homemade soda. Fermented sodas, citric acid + bicarbonate sodas, different juices and flavors like lime + lemon + cherry and pomegranate or mango peach or cola (homemade knock off)
Here’s another random thing you should know: In the windows 11 explorer, you need to right click on the filename to get the proper menu. If you right click somewhere else on the line that isn’t the filename text, it gives you the menu that is supposed to show up when you click on empty space.
Windows just isn’t for ADHD people. There’s so much crap you need to keep in mind to use it and every little thing is a distraction.
Thats why I use windows 10 and Linux at the moment. Xfce is pretty good IMO.
Same, but just at home unfortunately. Using windows for the occasional game that doesn’t run properly on linux is fine, but actually engaging with OS stuff is just hell.
Today at work I spent an hour fixing onedrive and it turns out that the permissions for the root folder of onedrive are just fucked most of the time. Team microsoft’s solution is to just put everything into the documents folder because that’s usually fine.
I feel like windows specifically interferes hard with my ADHD because I keep thinking about this crap. My colleagues just deal with it and then do something else, but my brain keeps getting stuck on it. I’ll sometimes even do stuff that would definitely work on linux just to test windows. Sometimes it feels like I actually learn something, but more often than not I just find another broken thing and get frustrated.
Today I even caught myself checking out the vscode-nvim extension just to use my mouse less but the setup for windows was two pages and the one for linux was like one command.
Now I’m looking for a different job and I hope they have proper tools. Not sure if I can bear much more microsoft crap.
Sorry for the rambling, in the middle of writing I just felt like I need to get this off my chest and kept going.
