The evidence that I'm aware of suggests that we with ADHD process caffeine differently, but it still has an effect on the brain which can affect one's sleep. I drink caffeine in the morning because it helps me calm down and focus while I wait for the medication to kick in.

"Thanks for the memories." I don't feel like I need to explain that one.

Remember that sleep is extremely important for everyone, especially us neurodivergent folks. I would not recommend taking any stimulant past noon. Hell, I struggle with sleep as it is and I take my ADHD medication at 6 AM.

I have a feeling that you'll adjust quickly and need to up your dosage to get any effect. I find that my body adapts very quickly to medications, especially stimulants. Unfortunately, that means building a tolerance over time and requiring either a long break or upping my dosage.

I'm not a doctor, so I can't give you advice on dosage. I just wonder how you'll measure it.

I’m a government contractor, so I’m stuck on Windows and Microsoft products for work. It really sucks, but the government ain’t switching to Linux anytime soon… if ever. At least Windows 11 Enterprise (or Government, whatever) should have a lot of this shit stripped out. I hope.

I don’t really ever leave my house and I live in loungewear. I ain’t changing just to go to the store. That’s a ridiculous waste of time and energy. I don’t think that most Americans care what other people think about their clothes.

Damn. Android only.

I don't know what to tell you. We need more information.

Are you on Nvidia, AMD, or Intel for your GPU? What other symptoms? Have you done any other research on this in your troubleshooting? What does your config file look like?

I ask because I have a ThinkPad on Fedora with Hyprland and it's doing just fine. Like another commenter said, help us help you.

I run Fedora on my gaming PC (KDE) and my ThinkPad (GNOME/Hyprland). It’s a rock-solid distro. Some may think the release cycle is too fast, but then just don’t upgrade right away.

Distrohopping is an addiction for me. As soon as I get settled, I’m ready to bounce. I want my gaming PC to stay where it is, but I might hop my ThinkPad around. Maybe. Fedora on it is fantastic.

High school crush. I married her.

The ID on the phone thing is weird. Like I’m gonna give my phone to a cop when they ask for my ID. That’s a nope from me. Same reason why I still print out my car insurance cards even though the information is on my phone. I ain’t giving my phone to a cop for any reason.

In the US, not every merchant accepts phone payments, so we still have to carry physical cards around. Your patronizing tone was unnecessary.

I’m a young Millennial and I don’t understand why you wouldn’t carry a wallet. Mine is a slim front pocket one, but I need somewhere for my ID and cards. I despise phone wallets and I use tap-to-pay where possible, but not everywhere accepts them for some reason. I also don’t carry cash because I’m not a Boomer. If I’m buying/selling something off Craigslist or whatever, I just use Venmo.

Who doesn’t use a wallet? Are they referring to those card holders and not calling them wallets?
