Not that it's worth the effort of jumping through hoops for a fucking file transfer of all things, but I wonder you can do it by spoofing your user agent?

Remember kids, violence is never the answer. But it's always an answer.

Oh, you can do PieFed on Voyager?

Not with that attitude

$20 is the limit for me. I'm perfectly fine waiting a few years to play the game, if it still exists by that point. If it doesn't, then I'm glad I didn't waste my time.

Funny you mention it, the next large purchase I have planned is a gaming PC to replace my aging 2018 laptop, and I plan on going all-in on Linux. From what I can tell, AMD seems to be the way to go, and as a long time Fedora user, I'm interested in Nobara.

What's your setup? Any recommendations?

Looks painful

To be fair, Internet grumblings on Reddit were actually a good starting point for me. The first, most important step, was learning that ADHD existed as something much more than just the wild child that's bouncing off the walls.

Then I started seeking out people with ADHD sharing their experiences (and, of course, memes), and I was shaken by how much some of them resonated with me. There were habits, fidgets, quirks I had that I had never seen or heard of anyone else doing that turned out to be common with ADHD.

To your point, yes, there were and still are plenty of people recklessly and inappropriately linking everything to ADHD or promoting harmful misinformation, which is why I purposely stuck with reading personal perspectives and not "authoritative" statements. Even so, I kept seeing more and more things that perfectly described me and I finally felt seen. Which led me to looking into professional research about ADHD that ended up explaining even more of my entire life, in turn pushing me to finally seek a diagnosis.

All that to say there are some good resources on the US side. You just have to be willing to dig through mountains of dog shit--and recognize that it's dog shit in the first place--to find the occasional nugget.

I'm waiting for Ol' Pete to lay down a policy directive determining that those of us on stimulants, anxiety meds, antidepressants, etc. are unfit for military service. I'll gladly take medical retirement with full benefits for life because of some Adderall. Good luck manning Cyber and Intel.

Are we missing out on anything important or particularly valuable? (actual question, I'm not familiar with Beehaw)

Plenty happened as a direct result of the protests. There was a brief moment of solidarity where everyone had a perspective to share about racial (and other types of) bias and discrimination, in turn sparking a cultural shift toward better inclusion and equity efforts. Police brutality and excessive force were thrown into a much bigger spotlight, and reasonable districts made positive sweeping changes (shoutout to Illinois's SAFE-T Act). Those months of protests pressured prosecutors to up the charges of the officers involved with murder charges appropriate to the situation, instead of third-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter.

There were some people that felt threatened by all this, so they cranked up the propaganda machine (with help from their Russian compatriots) in a desperate effort to bury it, gain traction, and build up enough power to undo everything. To say that nothing happened because of the protests, to oversimplify it down to "just a bunch of looting and riots," to characterize the movement as "radical left-wing/antifa terrorism," are those false narratives they're so desperate to promote.

Protests work. And they know it. They're terrified of it.

Never forget that the crime he was ultimately executed for, without due process, was giving a cashier a counterfeit $20. That was enough of a justification for those cops and everyone who supports them.
