16·1 month agoThe Japanese pronunciation is why they wanted to call him Puck-Man! It’s apparently from a Japanese onomatopoeia for a mouth opening and closing, “Paku Paku”

12·2 months agoI know… I’m in the same boat. Still though, could you imagine if they did?

I was diagnosed as an adult as well, but I also stopped taking the meds years ago in favor of lifestyle changes. Exercise, sleep, and diet helps enough to get by for me, without the side effects.
TIL there are white, lol
Wait, you take Adderall in the evening?

I’ve been using an old Nvidia Shield, and it just does way too much to be able to hand it over to the kids.

6·3 months agoI’ve been interested in doing this same project. I don’t have any ideas yet unfortunately, but I’d also like to hear what others have done.

14·3 months agoIt’s sort of like how the worst decision streaming services can make is to be so inconvenient that they push people to learn how to torrent. You can’t undo that, and now you just have piracy savvy

1·3 months agoI’m not sure if I can search for tags. I just tried and nothing came up, but it’s also possible that the search function in the mobile app I’m using isn’t the full search.
Very cool idea though!

11·3 months agoWhat would that look like? Maybe some sort of system where you could assign your site tags (e.g. star trek, linux, cats) and people could navigate by a relevant topic?

4·3 months agoVery cool! Banner ads are a must, lol
Side note: I’m not sure what terminology to use. I’ve seen “small web”, “indie web”, “intentional internet”. I’m not sure if they’re all referring to the same thing or mean something slightly different.

12·3 months agoAwesome! I imagine the resources to learn html and CSS are so much easier to find these days. I haven’t done anything like that since Myspace.
Is there anywhere that people are exchanging tips and tricks for getting started? I’d rather not go to reddit (I saw that there was a subreddit when searching for these screenshots) unless I have to.
