We did not have a microcenter in Willsonville. It was Incredible Universe then Fry's. Currently it is a vacant building to my knowledge.

Seems like still aligned on the general theme of "polite acknowledgement".

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.

Seems unlikely. Seems more likely it could be a medical expense if you have a prescription.

I think ASML can kinda do what they want. My understanding is that they make the cutting edge fab equipment. So if the US gov tries to play hardball, ASML can just sell their stuff to other countries.

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.

Sounds like your just optimizing for efficiency over peak performance. That a form of "best self".

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.

My understanding is that depression and anxiety are not uncommon for people with untreated ADHD. So it might be that your struggles with ADHD are causing depression.
