I have finally caught up with the rest of tumblr and realized I am a system 🎉😭

I love talking with neurotypical people about my executive dysfunction because I'm like "yeah there's this invisible wall in my head that I'm incapable of getting past no matter what I do and it stops me from doing things" and they're like what the actual fuck

Meanwhile other neurodivergents are like

Teachers are so under appreciated.

Every prominent person in society had a teacher.

Someone who taught them the letters that would later make best selling novels.

An exhausted person who tried to explain foreshadowing to kids who don’t care that later become the best horror movie directors.

Everything anyone knows came from someone who helped them understand.

I’ve been watching a lot of horror content recently and it gives me ideas ™️ but I feel like I never finish anything

My cousin asks to watch the Minecraft movie

I turn it on cause I haven’t seen it yet and I’m curious

He is immediately bored out of his mind

I’m freaking out over Technoblade and DanTDM

[mischiefmanaged33]

I’m over here, 3x older than my little cousin and I’m asking him if he believes herobrine is real like you ask a kid if they believe Santa is real

"fingers in his ass daughter or driving in my car son" why not both?

old enough to remember when smut was called ‘lemons’ but young enough that i had absolutely no business knowing that smut was called ‘lemons’ at the time

Electricity has a sound and water has a taste. I don't care what allistic people tell me. I deeply know this to be true.

My grandmother used to always be hot and I was always cold. I said it was ok cause I would rather cover up with blankets and it’s much harder to get cool than warm.

Now, I am always hot and my grandmother is always cold and guess what… I suffer hot while my grandmother doesn’t care to make me comfortable at all.

I hate hypocrisy.

why is it that when I'm in pain it's dismissed just because that's my normal regardless of how bad it is, but when someone who doesn't have chronic pain says they can't do something because it acutely hurts the world bends over backwards for them.

i thought my laptop was on its last leg because it was running at six billion degrees and using 100% disk space at all times and then i turned off shadows and some other windows effects and it was immediately cured. i just did the same to my roommate's computer and its performance issues were also immediately cured. okay. i guess.

so i guess if you have creaky freezy windows 10/11 try searching "advanced system settings", go to performance settings, and uncheck "show shadows under windows" and anything else you don't want. hope that helps someone else.

[shithowdy]

hey this is apparently helping a lot of people! adding that on top of this you can also go to settings > personalization > colors and turn off transparency to also boost performance. this wasn't the Big Fix for me but might as well do that too if you're trying to optimize.

past a certain note threshold on tumblr posts you unlock a bloodborne-esque insight and the strange lives of this site's users become visible to you

we fucking found them?

Ok I know we joke about this but I just went to the settings and first clicked "adjust for best performance" and then re-checked only 1 box:

"Smooth edges of screen fonts"

My computer was running hot before I turned everything off; the office I'm in is very warm, I could feel the heat of my CPU through the keyboard. The fans were going, not as loud as they usually get, but they were still blasting.

Y'all.

I can barely feel the warmth through the keyboard now. It's been like 2 minutes. The fan is nearly silent.

Click the Windows key and start typing "System settings", and "View Advanced system settings" will pop up. Then click "Settings" under Performance:

Then you'll see this:

TURN IT ALL OFF.

I turned "Show window contents while dragging" and then turned that off again. It's up to you.

My computer is so quiet and reasonably-temperatured now and I barely notice a difference in utility, why is windows like this

maybe I can even play computer games again

The second best thing you can do for a Win10 computer is turn off whatever unnecessary services it's decided it needs to run in the background always. Some services it does need, but others are useless. Here's an article that goes into step by steps.

10AppsManager lets you uninstall bloatware. Winaero Tweaker lets you disable crap like Cortana/Copilot, ads, telemetry, internet search results when you search from the taskbar, and all kinds of other stuff, plus it gives you lots of other little options that are just nice to have (like, it can restore the old MS Paint program in place of Paint 3D). Both are totally free.

Oh, and check your startup programs in the Task Manager tab to make sure your computer isn't automatically starting eight million programs every time it boots. But I think people mostly know about that. (Unless this is me going "they only know one or two feldspars... and quartz of course.")

The first best thing you can do for a Windows computer is install Linux Mint. But some of us do need a few pesky Windows-specific programs. Bleh. Still, if you're up for a project, you can have both (and it's awesome). Here's an article about setting up a dual boot Windows/Mint system.

Society needs to get something through their heads: people who deal with chronic pain are not 'drug seekers" in the sense of just wanting something to get high. We are seeking them to get out of the agony we're in.
