Ok, interesting, thanks for the correction. Do you think rephrasing my statement and stating Linus's kernel is more adaptive would be more accurate?
It was revolutionary when it was first isolated from bacteria. Always fascinating to me that it's pretty much the bacterial adaptive immune system. Now it's awesome seeing other scientists dial in the precision of an already game changing advancement.
Trump getting a second term seems to drastically increase the likelihood of a civil war, whereas Biden remaining in office drastically favors WWIII. Screwed either way, and I'm not sure which one is the lesser evil...
Stallman's attempt to rename Linux to incorporate the GNU name not happening was frustrating on his end it seems. Everytime someone calls their system a Linux based OS and not GNU/Linux based OS downplays the work he put in. However, Linus's kernel was more elaborate than GNU Hurd, so it was incorporated. It's said Stallman is a visionary, while Linus is a programist. While there's never been any display of tension in a back and forth between them online, it's always seemed to me they appreciate and also despise various aspects of each another.
As I recently learned from Mental Outlaw, https://github.com/raphire/win11debloat is a life saver. Not only can it disble all the telemetry, ad's, and bloat found in Windows 11, it also made my device run WAY faster. You can pick and choose what to keep and what to delete and it works for both Windows 10 & 11, I highly recommend it! Seeing the OneDrive update made me twitch, so I felt I had to reference this tool in this thread.
Here is Mental Outlaw's walk through downloading and running the program in Windows 11: https://invidious.drgns.space/watch?v=mwUBeqHqSas
Whenever you see that with invidious, just click "switch invidious instance". But this one should work for you, it just did for me at least: https://invidious.flokinet.to/watch?v=QtpC9RYK0mw&dark_mode=true&local=true&player_style=invidious
There's a software package you can install to root most Boox tablets. Definitely look into it as this will give you way more control over your device.
Here's a solid video covering the topic: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=QtpC9RYK0mw
GrapheneOS has a duress pin feature, which will wipe the device when entered. This being the case, I'd bet there's also a method to setting this up on a normal android device too.
Of course, no problem. When I was coming up I was always told you need to have a reason to put your feet on the floor in the morning. Sounds like you've tried other options to no avail, despite wanting to fix the problem. You should give it a go!
There's functional drug addicts out there, but when they get sober, they talk about how life's much easier compared to grinding through each day. While this isn't your story, it still shows how functional only means you're able to get by.
Either that or set up a pin which wipes the phone when entered. Wild these are the only real options aside from handing over intimate personal information. Crazy times we're living in...
Ketamine treatment with a doctor well versed on the research is a grand idea. It's covered by some insurance these days if many other avenues were attempted with no improvements. I'd say based on your explanation here, you'd be a great candidate for ketamine treatment. Look up the options in your area and see what the requirements are for treatment as well as what insurance they accept. I know a couple of folks who've had life changing experiences from the treatment, just be sure not to go full Elon with it...Actually, never go full Elon with anything!
