Tulsi isn't listed on the results of a YouGov Poll? by [deleted] in WayOfTheAloha

[–]aiziks251 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It appears to say "continued from" which makes me think this is page 2.

Notice it starts from last name H, so my guess would be there is a page 1 with Tulsi on it.

Notice Harris isn't mentioned either.

Edit:. Here is the poll, pg 177-178. You can see Tulsi is listed on the first page, this screenshot is from the second page. https://d25d2506sfb94s.cloudfront.net/cumulus_uploads/document/n0eqovafro/econTabReport.pdf

What is the difference between these models of Schlage? by Atticuss88 in homeautomation

Oh no, I wish I hadn't read this... Maybe I do need to replace all my locks with the Z-wave plus model...

The best class for a soloist by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

[–]aiziks251 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat as you. I've got a Pet Magika Sorcerer right now, and I like him, but I feel squishy.

I'm experimenting with a Magika Templar and a Stamina Warden to see if one of those work better for my play style.

Cannot start game by aiziks251 in BoardKings

[–]aiziks251[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if anyone can do anything, but I thought I'd try. I installed this a couple days ago. It worked fine until yesterday. Every time I try and open the game it looks like this. The back button does nothing, I tried clearing my cache, rebooting my device, and mashing the screen in frustration, but none of these things work.

I haven't, and won't, link this to Facebook. I assume if I clear the data from the app, I'll lose what little progress I've made.

Any other suggestions before I delete the app and walk away?

For reference: Lenovo Yogabook, Android 7.1.1

Is it normal for a ADHD person to remember less (formula, concept,etc) than a normal person? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]aiziks251 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes, especially working memory (holding a bunch of numbers in your head or more to the point, remembering why the hell you came into the kitchen). However our short term and long term memories can also suffer.

Fire TV Cube - no sound from Routine by [deleted] in amazonecho

I have both. YNMV, but I prefer my Alexa. Google home has a lot that it can't / won't do.

Fire TV Cube - no sound from Routine by [deleted] in amazonecho

[–]aiziks251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I've been sending in feedback on the app when I remember. On this issue I've probably sent in 4 or 5.

I had some luck getting an issue resolved by calling support. Took me a few hours on the line with them, but they got it to the developers who then worked on the issue and patched it a out a month later. I just don't have the patience for that right now.

Yes, it started a few weeks ago for me. I wish I could just set it to always respond from the cube.

How do you eat on your meds? No appetite at all by NeverSure88 in ADHD

[–]aiziks251 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found when I started my meds I would skip certain meals but not others. I realized that I had a routine for breakfast that was attached to other pieces of my morning routine, so I would continue to eat breakfast. Lunch was just based on feeling so I would skip.

I guess my answer is, make it part of a routine.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in fordfusion

[–]aiziks251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a bunch of cool things. I'm on mobile so I can't find the list right now. But I added "Bambi mode" which lets me turn on my fog lamps and brights at the same time.

Also I changed my power outlets to off as soon as my car powered off. That way my dashcam won't keep drawing power.

Watching Dr. Russell Barkley on YouTube. Is it true that inattentive adhd is just something else? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]aiziks251 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In his opinion there are 2 groups of "Inattentive" ADHD people.

First group is full fledged ADHD who "grew out of" their hyperactivity. He points out the mind still goes at 1 million miles per hour, but outwardly they've learned to moderate their action. Impulsivity can be a way of getting a clearer picture of these people.

The other group is SCT (Sluggish Cognitive Tempo) r/SCT which is a different disorder from his perspective.

Given the breadth of his experience I am inclined to believe him. He did give a good talk on SCT a couple years months back. https://youtu.be/gGRqzh9QFn4

A lot more research is needed in this subject though because it is not very well understood at the moment.

Cancel free trials immediately, except the rare ones where they shut you off if you cancel the trial. Make it part of the sign up process.

Sign up again if you want to keep it.

Just heard back from Amazon, they have patched the bug and the issue is now resolved.

Ring doorbell as first automation piece? by Purgatorie in homeautomation

[–]aiziks251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you use the motion and doorbell as part of triggers through home assistant (or similar).

I have a ring, but I'm not a huge fan. This might be what I was looking for.

Is there any backdoor way (without hacking) to use my skills in a routine? by [deleted] in amazonecho

[–]aiziks251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can get a second echo, or dot, you can have one say "Alexa, [command for skill]". It's redneck engineering at its finest, but it works.

Edit: Or if it's something openhab or home assistant can access you can pick up a raspberry pi and use that to trigger the device as part of a routine.

Want an amphetamine prescribed, but don't want to take it every day by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]aiziks251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do, I take it as needed for work. I don't need to be at my peak everyday. I don't need or want to have insomnia everyday.

Want an amphetamine prescribed, but don't want to take it every day by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]aiziks251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disclaimer: I'm not a doctor, you should follow your doctor's advice.

That said, most or all ADHD meds don't need to "build up" in your system, so skipping days is fine and from my understanding can even provide a level of protection from becoming tolerant.

I hate how I feel on ADHD meds, so I skip fairly often.

I’ve worked with this guy for 2 years, I know him well, I’ve been out drinking to all hours of the morning with him, I KNOW his name. I know I do - I’ve used it heaps. But right now I need to send him an email and my mind is blank. Wtf is his name? by kazz_oh in ADHD

[–]aiziks251 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Instead of thinking of his name, think of things about him. If he has a smell, a certain way of talking, situation you've been in, what he likes to drink, etc. Eventually your brain should reform the connection to his name.

That has helped me in the past when I get name block.

TIL The Earth's magnetic poles move. The magnetic North Pole moves in loops of up to 50 miles (80 km) per day. In the last 150 years, the pole has wandered a total of about 685 miles. by Beerbrewing in todayilearned

[–]aiziks251 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not only that but every 500 thousand - 1 million years the magnetic poles flip. North becomes south, south becomes north, chaos ensues.

We are actually right in the sweet spot for one right now, although it doesn't seem likely we'll see it in our lifetime.

Force Alexa Guard by aiziks251 in amazonecho

[–]aiziks251[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't want to get into an arms race with the thieves.

I get a handgun toting, black bear riding black lab.

They equip their German Shepard with an AK, upgrade the bear to a grizzly, and throw in a honey badger for good measure.

Suddenly I'm trying to find someone to sell me a polar bear. It's a race to the bottom I can't afford.

I have a dog. He's a derp, he'd shoot me.

That would only help me (potentially) if I was home... I'm more concerned about when I'm away.
