  • The gurl is a bot, and can read and relate to all earth plays in a day of gleeful scanning. Pretty sure she can experience growth from child to teen, then download and integrate a year at the academy and process that input with the new perspective, then move forward still being the same person, just being more complex as a result of the upgrade.

    The biggest issue with her 17 year childhood is that she appears to be alone with one other hologram on a starship, which wouldn’t exactly allow her to experience and process many normal experiences for people living in communities with mortal folk and pets n such–unless they added life like simulations, other school students, neighbors of varying ages and attitudes, pets that die…

    She needed opportunity to deal with real world stresses as they typically increase in severity with age, but she just seemed to get a very performative and sheltered 17 year biological development cycle added to her program.

    Seemed to miss the mark by a mile.








  • You can use tools like Staxrip and MKVToolNix to REMUX A/V content into other containers.

    So if your TV shows are windows media files or divx files and the TV doesn’t play those containers you may be able to bulk rebuild them as a different format without reencoding the files actual content.

    Some file contents won’t work in some containers though, so YMMV.

    Also, some TVs or basic file players like those found on TVs can’t read files burried too far down a file tree, or with long names. So consider moving a TV Show to a higher level if needed, like ‘drive/GOT S01’ vs ‘drive/the shows/game of thrones/season 01/s01e01/’ … You get the drift.



  • Also–there’s always more–if you live with somebody and they say you need to clean up a mess, right then is the time to do it. Unless you are making food at that moment or are in the middle of something really important, like tending to a wound, or putting out a fire.

    At that moment your companion is being your reminder, so make use of that opportunity!

    You can also create that opportunity by asking somebody in your life who is good at managing things to come over occasionally and help guide you. Not do it for you. Just look over a space and give you direction, then hang out and keep you company.

    Have a few drinks or buy them dinner after.

    A lot of folk are embarrassed by their messes, but as long as you’re not inviting a nagging judgemental nasty mother-in-law type over, I think you’ll be suprised how understanding your friends and family can be when you admit you know your ADHD is holding you back but step-up and ask for direction occasionally with cleaning.
