If it's not made of tea, it's not tea. It's an infusion.

It's extra annoying to me because in my first language there's separate words for "tea-tea" and "some boiled herbs-tea" that are commonly used, but thanks to lazy translation people are beginning to call everything "tea".

No, no, I know what hyperfocus is, it's the reason I no longer touch creative writing with a ten foot pole after getting bombarded with "but you wrote this one in an hour and it is awesome! just write another one!" :D

I meant that I am wondering if normal people just get the same productivity but without it being flipped on or off randomly, provided they don't get distracted by something. You know, kinda like learning that it's not just a tv thing that people can say "okay, let's do this" and actually sit down and do "this" and not have to beat their brain into submission first.

Oh yeah. Wonderful memories of psyching myself up to do Thing and then suddenly getting nagged to do Thing and dropping in absolute negatives on the good old motivation.

That's a wonderful example at the end there, gotta remember it when I talk to people who don't get why I was standing in doors dressed and couldn't go outside.

I'm beginning to suspect "superfocus" is just what normal people do when they focus.

I just change certain keybinds to be GIMP-like whenever I switch drawing programs.

N is the pencil, CTRL-SHIFT-A is deselect. There's something else, but I can't remember right now.

Well, in GIMP you need to do the "float selection" before you can manipulate what you've selected properly. In Clip Studio Paint, for example, you select, press ctrl, and just drag whatever you clicked on to move. Way more intuitive (until you do it expecting to interact with active layer and instead move something in the overlay or behind).

I do love how GIMP allows you to work with transparency though.

Oh yeah, I've quit the game for good by that time.

Yeah, I was wondering that until modern games started changing voicelines to reflect the characters' gender.

The moment Drifter referred to my hunter as "Sister", all those doubts were cured.

Yeah, same. I think it's because avatar will have some level of desync with the audio.

...or blink one eye after another or wink randomly.

Well, kinda-sorta. I've yet to hit ip block when browsing without a VPN, but VPNs and proxies definitely are getting blocked pretty consistently.

And seeing how wonderful the situation here is right now, I'm pretty familiar with VPNs at this point.

Yeah, I guess that's a local slang.

Yeah, I just checked, getting a static IPv6 here in Russia from my ISP costs ~.4 eur per month. IPv4 is ~1 eur, so you get a discount if you go for v6! Oh and despite my ISP saying they support v6, connection I got doesn't have it at all. Probably whatever hardware they got in my house doesn't know what it is.
