First week it made me feel like there was a very light electric current running through my body. Not unpleasant, just a bit odd. Tingly. And yawning uncontrollably for a few hours after taking them for a few weeks.

Again, not unpleasant. But I absolutely embraced them, I did not fight the effects. I was very, very glad to try medications.

Now, after like 4 or 5 years, I can clearly tell the difference between before and after - the difference is, instead of downward spiralling into a hideous pit that I couldn't climb out of, that spiralling downwards still starts, but it stops.

Instead of falling into the pit, I can just choose not to keep going down.

Things are still upsetting and I still take things worse than other people but I dont become out-of-control spiralling downwards forever until I can't function. I have gained the ability to shrug and go "that sucks but, whatever".

For the average user, with maybe a little bit of IT knowledge but doesn't work in IT, what can we do for ourselves and our families other than go to win 11 eventually?

Yea I'm at least 10 years post quitting properly and I'd fucking kill for a ciggie right now.

Not gonna do it, because of all the many, many reasons that they are fucked up. But still.

I dont want current gen BS AI which appears to be being used for like 92.4% evil

I do want AGI tho pls. ASAP.

Humans have fucked it all up and we deserve to be replaced by our successor species.

I'd much rather have AGI in control than politicians and billionaires.

Millennials are probably the best at avoiding scams.

Unfortunately we also have no money to scam anyway.

Incredible, cracked the pseudorandomness problem with this simple code that guarantees a random whole number greater than 3 and less than 5.
