I’ve seen some videos talking about iron based battery tech. My understanding is that is doesn’t wear out nearly as fast as lithium based tech and less of a fire risk. Downside is that it is less energy dense, so doesn’t work for mobile applications. But that shouldn’t be a problem for stationary applications, like the power grid.

In a practical sense, making lead hot won’t break it down. But I wonder if there is any temperature where lead would stop being lead and continue to not be lead after the results cool down again?

I didn’t know that Cunningham’s law also applies to couples counseling. lol

I think couples therapy is a good idea. It is very likely that both of you have things to work on. I also have my own experiences of making mistakes in the past, then getting so upset with myself I don’t leave any mental capacity to actually try to improve. Medications and therapy for my ADHD has helped a lot on that. Some resources that may be helpful are on YouTube. How to ADHD and Healthy Gamer GG are ones I am aware of.

I understand that your concerned for the person, but simply telling them that they need to produce proof before you can go any further seems fine.

Basically it is the trendy word to say, “This thing does not align to my narrow world view and is therefore bad and wrong.”

Before I got a diagnosis I was able to get bupropion from my GP. My experience is that it toned down the intensity of emotions making them more manageable. Since it is non stimulant it should side step the drug test issue.

I have stimulant meds now, taking bupropion and stimulant together is proving very effective for me.

A practice that I find helpful is repeating back what I thought I heard. This gives evidence to the other person you are paying attention and provides an opportunity for immediate corrections if I got something wrong.

I also agree with other people of not depending on your brain. Computers are very good at remembering precisely what you tell them. They also offer reminders for variable amounts of time before. I have had Google calendar events with reminders set for 1 week, 1 day, and 1 hour before a single event.

Don’t see why this is news. “Intel continues to do the thing they almost always do”.

Sounds like you might have buried it instead of processing. Perfectly understandable response, but I’m glad you got an opportunity to process in your own way.

My wife and I were living together for more than a decade before we got married. Our primary reasons for getting married were tax benefits and reducing legal complications if one of is in the is hospitalized or dies. Our wedding was followed at the court house followed by a very fancy lunch with 2 friends that acted as our witness’s.

Getting married has made no real difference in our relationship, besides now we split a joint tax return.

That was what I was attempting and failed to achieve.

You know how that old day ng gors. If you can’t beat them join them … in a joint venture where they get a stake in ownership and they train your employees how to more effectively build microchips.

Buy a Steam deck OLED and play Holo Knight.

A Mary Sue is about unearned skill. A person who is just magically good at everything. People don’t like it because in the real world you generally have to work hard, struggle, and sacrifice to achieve significant things. Same reason most people don’t like trust fund babies. They didn’t earn it.

The challenge is that in reality you have to keep making the choice. Nothing changes with one grand proclamation. Maybe it starts there, but it means nothing without backing it up with hundreds of other choices.

I know one personal challenge I am working on is judging myself by my best day. Everyone has variance of capability day to day. Beating myself up because everyday isn’t my best day is silly.

It also makes sense if they are on calling the entire computer “the hard drive” like grandma and the fans kicked on.

I understand it is normal human behavior to focus on negative things and an evolved survival trait. But it is kind of sad that no answers have any positive thoughts about the future. So I will try one:

Computer and robotic technology will improve and get cheaper. It will become feasible for home bound people to be able to have some sort of participation in society through telepresence.

It’s because we are all tired and something usually hurts. The thing that hurts and the reason it hurts changes, but “something hurts” is near constant state of being.

When mine did that it required a battery replacement. Got replacement from this site: https://batterysharks.com/. Also, maybe you should stop doing things that aren’t absolutely necessary until you’ve taken a nap.
