why do i relate to like every adhd meme?
I’m certain my wife is ADHD, undiagnosed.
One thing she does is constantly buy storage containers of all shapes and sizes to organise her insanely disorganised world.
All this has achieved is an insane amount of forgotten storage containers in the house and we have no idea what’s in any of them.
And yes, she once attempted to buy a giant storage unit to store her storage containers.
Time for a tag sale.
I’m kinda weird in that I’m very text-oriented rather than visual-oriented, and this even results in a preference for keyboard over mouse, if I can’t hotkey a thing by god I will go get a tool that will let me hotkey it, etc. As such, I type everything up in a notes app that syncs between my phone and PC. Also, while I do sometimes bookmark things, I often forget that I have so most things I find again just by remembering what I searched for last time when I find it.
Hey wait. I do this and I’m not…
… Oh. Never mind.
Whenever I see a ADHD meme I wonder if I have it because every single time it’s about something I do.
i have an amazing solution for this, instead of screenshotting, i save it in txt (type it out) so that later when i have a self hosted LLM assistant, i can send all the shit ive compiled till now, and ask for movies/ songs/ or any article i saved and i can just do a semantic search through it. planning to make an open source tool for this but not too good at ML
Oh, no need to wait for LLMs. Apache Solr should be really good at it. We used it at a company I was working at to build the most kickass search into our platform, that would actually find the stuff you were looking for…and that was back in 2018 :D
ayy, that’s nice. LLMs are truely overkill just for semantic search though, didnt know there are other ways to achieve this. but we need intelligence too right. (somewhat)
Don’t get me wrong though… throwing an LLM at it would be a lot easier and faster. Just a mind boggling use of resources for a task that could probably be done more efficiently :D
Setting this up with Apache Solr and a suitable search frontend runs a high risk of becoming an abandoned side project itself^^
Yeah LLM seems like the go to solution. And the best one. And talking about resources, we can use barely smart models which can generate coherent sentences, be it 0.5b-3b models offloaded to CPU inference only.
Yes, your own intelligence that you integrate into the structure of your database and queries ;)

I do create screenshots and screen cuts using PickPick and auto-save turned on - it is better than any AI bases self-survivalence tool
Screenshotted
Hmm I’ll take note of this for later
In the immediate future, the screenshot archive becomes unmanageable.
In the long term future, it becomes the modern equivalent of what your parents and grandparents got out of keeping a scrapbook or photo album.
I’ve been chronically online since 1997. Going through a scrap folder which I held onto when decommissioning an old PC or phone brings back all kinds of memories. I even find that noting the changes in my meme taste can be really useful for identifying points where I’ve grown as a person. That, in turn, leads to reprocessing old memories and identifying ways in which I brought something to the table which facilitated some of my own bad experiences. That helps me heal.
I have data on my NAS stretching back to 2002. It’s been migrated a few times, but the metadata doesn’t lie.
Tabs. I need more open tabs. Currently at 67.
Try that count on each of 5 separate browser window. Amaeteur. I exaggerate, of course. Only a couple have that many tabs. I actually closed a window today - it only had 8 tabs - and opened a new one with more tabs from the references of the pages I closed. Eventually I will read the internet.
It’s not a competition, but that was just mobile browser. Add a personal laptop and a work laptop for the full measure.
I realized I got this from my mom when she asked me to fix her slow phone and the problem ended up being that the tab count on her phone’s browser was “:D”
Tab count on phone usually doesn’t slows the phone. I have ∞ in firefox
Get enough malicious JavaScript ads on there from enough shiitty websites and you can tank a supercomputer.
Tabs on phone don’t usually run in background always
Stop attacking me!
Then you forget or misremember the name of the site or idea, and it’s just lost in a sea of broken dreams.
Backup your bookmarks and then delete all of them. The backup is for peace of mind “just in case I ever need one of them” (you won’t)
Wow. It’s not just me? Is there a term for “fear of losing ideas”?
Athazagoraphobia
Not just screenshots. I have literally hundred thousand photos of which about 50% are neatly in the correct folders and the rest are a complete mess that I don’t even want to look at. If I spent like 5 minutes each day organizing them I’d sort it out in no time but I just can’t get myself doing it.
This is my non - organisation system too… For everything which I don’t have to keep decently for some external purpose. Even though I also love to organise stuff ha.
I did manage to get everything onto a 2TB harddrive, so now I have decades of irregularly organised chaos (more or less, I lost some of it several times through not backing up) all in one place - yay!
Also, despite all intentions to the contrary, I’m doing exactly the same thing with my newer devices lol (that’s the hollow laughter of despair).

Saving this
I did without thinking hmm
