Someone had mentioned AC may be fixed by the .NET4 fix in the last update - https://feddit.uk/comment/6293633 I've not tested it yet and it doesn't look like anyone has posted on ProtonDB with that updated Proton version, so it's only a "maybe".

It's obviously not representative of the overall Linux experience but I recently realised that messing around on the Linux bits in ChromeOS would be a pretty good way to learn Terminal things, at least for Debian. It's sandboxed so it doesn't matter if you screw up and if you do it's like two or three clicks to start afresh, way simpler than setting up and resetting a standard VM for the inexperienced. It, of course, means using a ChromeOS device but maybe that can be a secondary lesson on having megacorps profit from your data.

Man who would have access to the best healthcare in the UK despite being a major part of pushing the NHS beyond breaking point asks, "Would herd immunity be so bad?"

Very much so. Passing the buck onto GPs when the system is already at capacity is also why so many shared care agreements are being rejected. The NHS are being forced to leave people with no option for care and it's shameful; a damning indictment of the state the government has chosen to put the NHS in. They've very purposefully spent the last decade-or-so driving people towards private healthcare, then seem to want to blame those private companies in part for the issue we're now facing.
I also keep meaning to explore the supply chain issues further and why the delays are quite so long. Sure, these are controlled drugs and there's probably a whole heap of bureaucracy involved but (potentially) three months seems like an absurd amount of time. If the government wanted to intervene then they would but the lack of action may be telling.
I'll also take this opportunity to link this other great post from r/ADHDUK, detailing a lot of the problems involved with the supply chain. I can't believe that was only 11 days ago... we're still in the same no-news position we were 11 days ago!!
I also wanted to post this great segment from BBC Breakfast, currently a [pinned post](https://www.reddit.com/r/ADHDUK/comments/178ba62/henry_shelford_founder_of_adhd_uk_on_bbc/) on r/ADHDUK. I found it both extremely validating and upsetting to see the exact anguish on his face that I've been experiencing. The link should take you to the start of the studio segment (2:18) but the clip that precedes it is also worth your time if you have it. If anyone in your life wants to know why you're struggling right now, I'm yet to come across a better and more concise resource to express it.

that it's like my brain doesn't instinctively understand that no one is experiencing what I'm experiencing; it treats what I see, hear etc along with my internal monologue like a movie that everyone is watching.

Alex Jones has a tendency to do a similar thing, mixing fiction with reality. It's remarkable how these delusional people continue to maintain so much influence over so many people.

For me it's a combination of extreme tiredness - particularly in the morning - and constant racing thoughts. It's made work really difficult. Fingers crossed you get some meds soon!
Oh yea and I basically have the munchies.

I'll get back to it. Just like I got back to playing bass, using the Dreamcast I never had as a kid, learning Python, messing with my Raspberry Pi and learning Spanish.
Sure, I'll get back to it.
of having so much motivation to set up an ADHD community, then after a while it becomes the newest thing collecting dust in the corner.

It's amazing that scoring multiple own goals doesn't get you subbed.
*...because it cannot be contained within a mere megathread.* At 15:58 GMT today, an ["Official Career Deep Dive" for EAFC 24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hasHXEsG_UM) will be premiering on the EA Sports FC YouTube channel. What will be announced today? What are you hoping to see? Will you be able to auto sim through training? Will you still have the Sword of Damocles hanging over you all season if don't reach the last 16 of your domestic cup? Will you still be expected to get a 9.0 match rating every game to avoid losing the favour of your manager? Will you still be expected to score or assist in every game, even as a DM? Will shopping items and investments actually be worthwhile? Will the regens in the free agency still be so cheap you can create a UCL team in a day? *Will France still pump out wonderkids at an alarming rate?* There's plenty of time for griping. We shall await the video!
This has been set up to share experiences with player and manager career modes on FIFA titles, along with updates on career mode in EA Sports FC 24 as they become available. Obviously, the inspiration for this has been drawn from the great [r/FifaCareers](https://www.reddit.com/r/FifaCareers/) community. I hope we can build something similar here. With the [Career Deep Dive video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hasHXEsG_UM) premiering on the EA Sports YouTube channel at 15:58 GMT today, I figured this is a good time to get started. I must admit at the top of the show that I'm a real cynical bastard when it comes to career mode on FIFA, but that sure as 'eck hasn't stopped me playing it to death each year. Please read the rules and remember... >Everybody love everybody \- Jackie Moon

I don't think I want the stress of trying to match the overall ranking I got in FPL last year and I love the draft format I've had with fantasy hockey, so I'm considering jumping into a draft league for a new FPL challenge this season. Unfortunately I don't know enough people playing FPL to start my own league so I'm probably going to be in a public one. Usually in public hockey draft leagues, most of the teams in your league will be inactive after a few weeks and their players will forever be locked to that team since there's no commissioner to intervene. I'm assuming this will be much the same in FPL. Has anyone here had experience of what the public draft leagues are like for FPL?
Like with other neurodivergent conditions, meeting the expectations of the 'normal world' can be exhausting for ADHD people. Regulating yourself through the eight hour work day can leave your head feeling stuffy and like it's about to burst but there's no shame in taking some time for yourself after the work day. A lot of us will have spent our lives being told we're "lazy" and "underperforming", so it's hard to shake the feeling that we should always be doing something productive. But "productive" can mean having some downtime if it leads to greater motivation and mental clarity later on. Of course, this isn't always possible if there are other things involved like family or other work commitments, and it's whatever works best for you. Just don't feel like every moment of your life has to be dedicated to furthering 'the bigger picture'. Don't be afraid to watch the next episode of your new favourite show or sink another hour into whatever game has you hooked right now. Read another chapter, draw something just for fun - whatever it is that clears your brain fog. It's important to look after yourself and relaxation is a huge part of that. Different people are wired differently; don't always hold yourself to the standards of the 'always on' crowd if it doesn't work for you. Have a good week!
It's a hot one out there for a lot of us today so remember to take a water bottle with you, keep drinking and refill it when it's empty. Also avoid staying in direct sunlight for long periods of time wherever possible. This is especially true if you're taking stimulant medications as these may dehydrate you, making you more susceptible to heat exhaustion and sunburn. [Refill](https://www.refill.org.uk/) can show you the locations of water fountains where you can refill your bottle for free.
If you keep misplacing something, keep it in a set place or places in each room and discipline yourself in doing so until it becomes habit. It's usually best to put something in the first place you think of when trying to find it, even if it might look out of place there. As an extension to this, I've found putting most of my day-to-day things in a bag/backpack etc. helps the most. It's whatever works best for you but I always keep my keys, meds, cards and a USB cable in my bag, and that goes out with me basically everywhere. Just make sure you're not carrying half your life around with you!
I hope that this can be a positive, safe space for discussion around ADHD in the UK. Please feel free to get involved. Rant if you must. Rules can be found in the sidebar. To get things started I'll occasionally post general tips (I guess the kids would call them "hacks") on dealing with ADHD day-to-day. A~~n icon and~~ banner will be added at some point. ~~I'll also add some links to other ADHD spaces in the Lemmy-sphere to the sidebar once the influx of new users has settled down and we have more clear-cut communities taking shape.~~ For now, remember to eat and stay hydrated. The doomscrolling can wait! *Update 1: An icon has been added. The banner will be added whenever I'm struck by inspiration. If anyone has any suggestions for it then please DM it to me* *Update 2: Made rules less wordy. Added 'Other Communities' and 'Other Resources' to sidebar.*
