Yeah maybe, they do have the fastest gaming processors, and most efficient workstation processors if you use the x3d for workstations.
I hope not. I'll likely be buying a bit of an upgrade in the next 6 months....

I'm attempting to be self-employed in the very near future. And one question I keep asking myself is "where do I find clients?". So, obviously I'll have a website, some sort of social media,etc. But, some of my target clients will be businesses/organizations...
And every time, without fail, I'll think "hmm, LinkedIn is a good place to find businesses to reach out too". But the first thing I see is always some variation of this insane bullshit. Is it a requirement to embellish that badly?
Like, what am I supposed to do with that information? There must be a better way? Or do I need to start saying:
" Business is much like the chicken on my sandwich: covered in sauce which has too much fat. People, like little Abby at the orphanage, see my sandwich and say, "there's too much mayo", to that I say, "you don't know sandwiches the way I do". Without fail, the orphans are always enthralled. They see that all they need to do is make a better sandwich, learn about the fats in sauces, and work hard. They volunteer their time making sandwiches for me, so they can get the experience. And then, they go and start their own business, rising out of poverty."
"I have done this no less than 5 times already. And each time, the orphanage renames itself after my sandwich business "sloppy seconds". It's amazing what a little hard work can do."
"DM me if you would like to learn more."
I think that's unhinged enough. Let me know what you think!
I was thinking this too. However, Amd still has a much lower market share than Intel so I suspect they will use this to claw back as much as they can. If they manage to get into the 40-60% range, then I would expect them to start playing with raising prices.
Alternatively they may release certain models at inflated prices to test the waters with increased pricing.
This is an armchair analysis of course so take it with a grain of salt
Whether or not it was intentional, the timing of Biden stepping down was very good for the democunts.
Within any job, there is what your role is on paper, and what you actually do over the course of a work day. Often times what you actually do is much more than "expected". Work to rule means that you stick explicitly to what your role is, and the way the company expects you to perform your duties. Or rather, what they expect on paper.
An example: Unionized employees will often "work to rule" as one of the first steps aimed at putting pressure on an employer to negotiate. It's an entirely legal thing to do, and serves to exemplify the disconnect between on paper job expectations (what you are paid for), and real expectations.
Thus, working as per your contract/job description with minimal deviation, will minimize how much you are exploited by ensuring you only do the work out are paid for.
The undiagnosed mental condition could be it tbh. I found it hard to learn anything I didn't find really interesting (among other things). Boom, ADHD diagnosis in my thirties
Yeah, operating dangerously close to "work to rule" most days is a great way to minimize exploitation.
You are few to choose
The grown men are free to choose to make little girls cry, and little girls are free to choose to cry. What don't you understand tankie?!?!
Also, if you just enjoy the research part, where's the harm in that?
As far as the phone: me too. Removing apps can help. Put it out of your field of view. Stuff like that. Still it's super hard
Honestly I don't know. Keep in mind it's also the "type" you have as well. My type is mixed, and I'm fortunate enough to have a "high IQ" (according to the assessment, I know it's a troublesome metric, please don't shoot me lol) so that may play into it as well.
I have similar hobbies, and I always feel better engaging with them. But, sometimes that also wasn't enough. I would have to yell internally or externally "Jesus Christ rando895" to push through the dysfunction, and it worked less and less as I got older.
People can recommend so many strategies to work on things that are difficult (prep food ahead of time, let yourself order out once or twice a week, etc.) but that may or may not work for you, and ultimately I think you (me as well) have to try a bunch of different things to see what works, and never stop trying new things. It's also sort of a hack to let your brain seek new interesting things to get the sweet feel good chemicals lol.
As far as the meds, most of what I've said is me trying to piece together my feelings and observations:
My brain is quieter, sort of. I am far more eloquent when I speak, and much more clear. I think this is indicative of better focus, memory, and brain function.
There is almost never a wall of molasses I need to move my thoughts through to do simple tasks like the dishes or sweeping.
So I guess what happens, is if I, say, pull out my phone to dissociate for a bit, I might realize "I really don't need to do this, I'm fine" and can usually stop. Then, that leads to the thoughts "wow, was that a coping mechanism?".
Another example:
Hyper fixation (and impulsivity) on upgrading my computer. The coping mechanism (I didn't know until recently) was this:
I really want to upgrade my computer (this means it WILL happen).
So, I would research everything about the games, performance, what is the best upgrade, where are the better prices, etc. This forced me to not spend money impulsively. But, it's exhausting and takes up so much time.
Recognizing this now it's a bit different:
"I want to upgrade my computer." But then I think " But why? My games and apps work fine. " And that is basically the end of it, usually.
Meds aren't perfect and this has been my experience and attempts at understanding my situation. If it helps, I was diagnosed a few months ago, recently started meds, and I'm in my 30's.
Ohh, and information dumps are still (clearly) a thing that I frequently engage in lol. I hope it's at least a little useful.
Or, with your 60 year old graduate studies supervisor and their date.
It's, an experience.
