Do you think whataboutism is more important than either?

Games dont feel very optimized anymore

This is on purpose. Game studios decided that instead of bothering with all sorts of complex graphics hacks to get games to run fast they can just crank ray tracing and use temporal anti-aliasing. The result being that you need one of the latest generation cards to run these games at all since they don't degrade gracefully to lower specs.

Until very recently I was still running a 1080, which runs pretty much any game (even recent ones) at high graphics settings. As soon as a game uses ray tracing or temporal anti-aliasing it won't even run at the lowest potato settings possible.

The invincible should not look like this at <15fps and be a blurry mess when moving on minimum settings while halo infinite looks way better while rendering way more things on the same machine at high settings at 60fps.

Same thing if the food tastes too greasy or fatty. Lemon juice isn't a bad go-to for whenever you go "this dish is missing something, but what?"

Right but the question is whether or not that is inherent to ADHD, or inherent to how we've designed society. The latter is something that could in theory be fixed.

Put nails in at an angle, and alternate the angle so a row of nails looks like a row of Vs. Whenever reasonable I'd still go for screws though.

Oh! In that case: absolutely nothing. Credit cards are terrifyingly insecure. Whether or not the info is on two sides or one. Any webshop you use your credit card at can just arbitrarily charge it from then on if they feel like it.

There's no chance this doesn't turn out to be, among other things, an autism detector.

As far as I understand it the pin&chip system involves a challenge/response between the bank and the card. You can't just "clone" the chip, because the secret data it contains is essentially write-only.

Heat cooking oil in the pan until it starts smoking. Hey presto it's seasoned. Tomato will not strip it, nor will soap. Intense scrubbing will.

Cast iron is so easy to care for. Just don't stick it in the dishwasher or let it stay wet after washing.
