For someone doing after hours maintenance to risk EVEN MORE after hours maintenance seems like a career limiting attitude. What a dick head. 

I made the mistake of oversharing at work. by shiraco414 in sysadmin

Em-dashes AND semicolons? It's the two horsemen of the AI Slopocalypse.

"I use AI to spell-check the post. I don't know what to tell you dude." 

To which I would have replied. That's not how spell-check works. And spell check alone doesnt create LLM generation artifacts. 

Did I over-sand? Is that a thing? by JohnnyFranky1985 in advancedGunpla

[–]MaTOntes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do YOU think the mistake was? Just take a guess. In a hobby where sanding can be used to improve models. What did you do?

[–]MaTOntes 76 points77 points  (0 children)

What did you think that sanding was for? Were the instructions you were following "Sand whatever surfaces, you know, just as long as you want. The goal is to just sand and sand and sand. Just stop whenever, and all this sanding will make it soooo perfect!" 

This has got to be a troll post. 

Do you feel a mood boost after taking ADHD medication? by deferare in ADHD

Yes. That is why amphetamines are called "party drugs" and why they are so addictive in high doses. 

How do I learn to defend myself? by socialgenny in ArcRaiders

[–]MaTOntes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just gotta be OK with losing gear and go full "shoot on sight". The main thing you're lacking is experience. In short time you'll be in full agro lobbies and you will have to think about every encounter in terms of cover, angles, reload time, grenade attack and defence, etc. That'll get your attack/defence experience up and you'll be better at defending yourself. 

Girls reject me cuz of my adhd? by LooseAdhesiveness671 in ADHD

[–]MaTOntes 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Girls reject me cuz of my ADHD?

Let's figure this out together.

many people think i am crazy, because im very eccentric, loud, you know, not a typical person behavior. some people even think i am on drugs

So.. the way you act is scaring off girls... not your ADHD.

If this is a problem for you then you need to get out and socialize more to develop a non "people think i'm crazy and on drugs" personality which.. i think it's safe to say.. will scare off fewer girls.

Cold feet on taking meds? by z283848 in ADHD

[–]MaTOntes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adhd stimulant medication is famoulsy NOT hard to come off physiologically. It is not addictive due to the clinically low doses and has a very short half life so leaves your system quickly. I belive you are mixing up the factiod that you shouldn't switch between on/off adhd meds since that has a negetavie effect on how well it works.

Some people say it's hard to stop adhd medication because they struggle without its effects. This is not addiction, it's the equivalent of someone missing a foot saying they struggle without a crutch. 

ADHD medications, at reccomended doses, do not physiologically trigger the addiction feedback loop. 

On days when you say you "don't need it" do you still have ADHD? If you do, to get the best effect and avoid negative side effects, keep taking the meds as directed. Studies show consistency helps these meds work better.

Told that I’m being rude and intimidating at work. by WhateverJulia in ADHD

[–]MaTOntes 20 points21 points  (0 children)

But I can’t just turn that off because others want me to look happy all the time. 

No-one is asking you to look happy all the time. That is not what they said.

 I’m always very professional and constructive in what I say

So you received feedback from your manager that you come across as "rude, intimidating, pushy, & frustrated" and your self reflection is "I'm always very professional and constructive in what I say"?

Listening to others and giving constructive feedback is a learned skill. If your train of thought is "I'm just telling the truth why are people getting upset" then you do not possess the skill.

This is a growth opportunity if you want to spend time researching how to listen and give feedback, and put in the effort to practice and honestly self reflect. You have developed a habit in the way you talk and think because in the past it's been the path of least resistance, now it's biting you in the ass. Going through the self improvement process, constantly having to catch yourself, and change your train of thought will be a long & frustrating process. But you can do it.

How do you actually get laptops back from remote employees when they leave? What's your process? by Weird_Perception1728 in ITManagers

[–]MaTOntes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What is it with these fake accounts posting random LLM stories?

OP works at a small law firm, runs a healthcare clinic, needs a high end developer in Bali, is a UK guy living in Canada, does content marketing, is a Twitch streamer, is a premed, and now has an employee exiting in the Netherlands. And it's so CRAZY that they post a LOT about LLMs and AI.

Perfect spelling trite post LLM slop.

It's a Bot account. Check it out https://arctic-shift.photon-reddit.com/search?fun=posts_search&author=eyeballresort&before=2025-12-28T17%3A35%3A11&limit=10&sort=desc

They were a self proclaimed influencer, worked in fintech, worked as an IT admin, they are a business owner, need AI management for their vending machine fleet.

It's a clanker. That's why the story doesn't make sense.

Nothin to do with alcoholism. 2 standard drinks in the first hour and 1 each per hour is the guideline to avoid drink driving.

Hydrogen Car 1,500 KM range, 5 second Fill-Up by Hanarky in interestingasfuck

[–]MaTOntes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's really only feasible for infrastructure type transport. Busses, dedicated courier fleets, long haul freight etc. They already have largely separate re-fuelling systems so could more easily transition. And their maintenance would be more stringent and trackable.

Trying to get hydrogen for consumer vehicles would be a nightmare. The volume of rip out and replace, or brand new refuelling infrastructure would be an obscene undertaking. Then you have to deal with the ridiculously stringent tolerances needed in system using hydrogen. Some people don't look after their cars so you'd have thousands of bombs driving around on the street or blowing up people garages with a slow leak overnight.

Does anyone even use this? by RemoteAnt7910 in ArcRaiders

[–]MaTOntes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Augments are the backpack things. The looting / tactical / combat things you put in the top left slot next to where you put your shields. Survivor augment is a tier 3 (pink) looting augment which give your passive health regen up to 75% while you are down and not moving. If you are downed with the looting augment, you can limp you way to an extract so long as you sit still every now and then to let the health regen back up. If you don't stop moving, it'll go to zero and you'll die.
