My greatest strength is already also my greatest weakness: hyper focus from ADHD.

I don’t like the default behavior where I have to hold a comment to collapse the thread. Is there a way to change it to just a tap?

I had this recommended for me, but the risk of empty nose syndrome scared the shit out of me.

All of my top picks have been mentioned, but I have a few more that stand out from recent memory.

Hijack (Apple TV+) was one of my favorite thrillers, perfectly wrapped up in one season. Multiple jaw-dropping moments. Very hard to put down.

Perry Mason (HBO) is an enigmatic murder mystery that will keep you guessing. Characters are written with depth. Feels realistic for the time period.

Watchmen (HBO) is a faithful continuation of the comic book that, like the book, uses superheros to explore ethical and social issues instead of drawing clean lines between good and evil. Also responsible for teaching many Americans about the Tulsa Massacre.

Yea. I was using bottom until I saw this and did a quick side-by-side comparison (nix-shell -p btop, I use NixOS BTW). btop’s UI is just so much better.

A fact I’ve recently enjoyed spreading around: all of humanity’s radio communications have traveled about 200 light years from Earth. The diameter of the Milky Way galaxy is ~100K light years. So (in the worst case) we’re like 0.2% of the way to even being a “blip on the radar” of any alien life within our galaxy.
