My review of your post: you need to stop using so much emphasis on everything. Not every instance of the word Bitwarden needs to be italicized. Also five different ways of storing passwords sounds insane, and harping on for a dozen paragraphs about Bitwarden's security incidents only to settle on another SaaS password manager sure is a choice.

What's the source on significant over diagnoses?

I don't believe I said the words "significant over diagnoses". However, for example for ADHD there was a pretty good article in the New York Times last year (scroll down, the page has a bunch of whitespace at the top): https://web.archive.org/web/20250414202754/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/magazine/adhd-medication-treatment-research.html

Also, how can sacountry workout universal healthcare have such excessive diagnoses when so many aren't even getting the healthcare at all?

These conditions are often diagnosed during childhood and youth, where most Americans are AFAIK covered by national programs as well as their parents' insurance.

For adult diagnoses, there's a selection bias towards people who have self-diagnosed and seek confirmation, which will logically lead to a diagnosis rate among patients that exceeds the true incidence of the condition in the general population (due to the selection bias), as well as a slightly or somewhat increased apparent incidence of the condition in the general population (due to people who self-diagnosed without actually qualifying for a diagnosis, but read enough about the condition to effectively lie their way to a diagnosis).

This exact same phenomenon applies to almost any mental disorder. And I use the term mental disorder loosely here, as I'm one of the people who doesn't believe mild cases of autism are even worth diagnosing.

The reason it applies to autism too is that any diagnosis makes you a customer of the medical industry; the customer relationship doesn't end when you receive a diagnosis, that's when it starts. They may not be able to sell you autism medicine (yet), but they can sell you all sorts of other medicine and therapy.

Yeah particularly with ADHD I feel like many diagnoses are really "incompatible with wageslaving for 40 hours a week" rather than a condition that would, in a vacuum, affect the patient's quality of life.

Of course many ADHD patients do have real issues with their quality of life even outside of societal obligations (read: work, studies) in the form of e.g. not getting chores done, but as a former "problem child" who nearly had this forced on him back in the day, I firmly believe that there's a lot of pressure from the school system to get kids on meds just so they'll sit pretty in class even though the real problem lies in the system.

[-] turdas@suppo.fi 10 points 2 days ago

I don't know about autism, but there is definitely some of that going on with ADHD for which medical treatment is much more common than for autism.

Autism patients do get prescription meds too, not for autism per se but for the various associated comorbidities (depression, anxiety, sleep meds, etc.). That's all fine and good when there's a genuine need for them; the problem is that big pharma has a business interest in making the barrier of prescription as low as possible.

[-] turdas@suppo.fi 31 points 2 days ago

Unpopular opinion in these circles I'm sure, but:

The US (and the west in general, but especially the US) has a genuine problem with overmedicalization, driven in no small part by for-profit pharmaceutical companies having a financial incentive to sell medication and treatments to people. Part of fixing this problem involves admitting that it also affects autism, ADHD, OCD, etc. diagnoses, and that saying this is not erasure of people affected by those conditions.

Another unpopular opinion: making a medical condition part of your identity is generally not healthy, and if you're upset about an "anti-autism diagnosis campaign", there is a chance you have made a medical condition part of your identity.

I say this as someone with a childhood Asperger's diagnosis who would no longer qualify for any kind of diagnosis.

Every western leftist knows someone who's perfectly described by this article, and if you don't then that means you're that someone.

Rosatomin perutun voimalan tilalle kaavaillaan tällaista. Otsikko sai jotenkin katsomaan kahdesti (joka luultavasti oli Ilta-Pulun pyrkimys), mutta tietenkinhän tuossa vain tarkoitetaan amerikkalaisen yhtiön (Westinghousen) rakentamaa voimalaa.

Not sure how credible this is, but it seems more credible than that Finnish company's claims. This one comes from an established battery manufacturer and according to the article the cells have survived puncture tests etc. already.


After achieving a breakthrough earlier this week, Greater Bay Technology said it aims to launch the world’s first mass-producible all-solid-state battery this year.

China ramps up solid-state EV battery production

Greater Bay Technology (GBT) is a battery manufacturer backed by China’s GAC Group. The battery startup focuses on developing ultra-fast charging and solid-state batteries.

It even set the world record for the “fastest charging technology for electric vehicles” in 2024 with its Extreme Fast Charging (XFC) batteries, which recharged from 0% to 80% in just 7.5 minutes.

On Monday, the company announced it had hit another major milestone, with its first A-sample all-solid-state battery cells rolling off the production line.

The A-sample battery cells contain no liquid electrolyte and successfully passed needle penetration, extrusion, and thermal shock tests without a fire or explosion.

GBT said the breakthrough enables all-solid-state EV batteries to move from the lab to industrialization as it aims to begin mass production in 2026. According to Chinese news outlet, NE-Time, GBT aims to launch the “world’s first mass-producible all-solid-state battery” with GWh-level mass production and in-vehicle use by 2026.

The new tech overcomes the hurdles that have prevented all-solid-state batteries from hitting the mass market with a new organic-inorganic composite ESC all-solid-state electrolyte system.

GBT’s battery tech has already been reviewed and is receiving support from China’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC).

With a single cell energy density of 260-500 Wh/kg, considerably higher than traditional liquid lithium-ion batteries, the cells enable a longer driving range, faster charging, and more interior space.

The new tech enables stable 2-3C fast charging, which has been another major barrier for solid-state EV batteries. It also showed minimal cycle-life degradation during long-term, repeated charge-and-discharge cycles.

Minua on aina ärsyttänyt lähes kesäajan vertaisesti se, että Suomessa seurataan EET-aikavyöhykettä Keski-Euroopan CET-vyöhykkeen sijaan. Läntisessä Suomessa, jossa valtaosa suomalaisista asuu, CET kun vastaa maantieteellistä sijaintiamme käytännössä yhtä hyvin, mutta olisi EU-yhteistyön kannalta paljon parempi. Toisaalta myöskään EET:stä ei meille ole mitään hyötyä nyt, kun Venäjän kanssa ei tulla pitkään aikaan tekemään yhteistyötä.

Tutkimustiedon valossa vaikuttaa myös siltä, että on terveyden kannalta parempi elää aikavyöhykkeen keskikohdan itä- kuin länsipuolella. Tällöin kellot ovat hieman Aurinkoa jäljessä, joka helpottaa illalla nukahtamista ja aamulla heräämistä (eli vaikutus on päinvastainen kuin kesäajalla).

Nyt kun kelloja taas käännettiin, innostuin tekemään aiheesta tällaisen ruohonjuuriaktivistisen tiedoteverkkosivun. Sivulla on karttoja, ytimekästä tietoa ja laskuri, joka näyttää eri kaupungeille paljonko kellon oikeasti niissä pitäisi olla.

(0) Read the official Microsoft support guide, because otherwise you will never succeed.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-GB/office/change-sharepoint-online-language-settings-0f6a477a-dcab-4462-9d0c-e3b53d138183

Note that the UIs in the following steps may be in a language that you do not speak, but the support guide will naturally refer to the English localization. If you need the localized names of the UI elements, the guide is available in multiple languages. Unfortunately this will change the language of the entire guide, which may make it difficult to understand the steps themselves.

(1) Click on your profile circle in the top right and then click on this link.

(2) On the new page that opens, click this button.

(3) In the modal pop-up, click this unassuming one-word link in the bottom left.

(The link translates to "You can add more profile information here.")

(4) On the new page that opens, click on the ellipsis button to show the hidden items of the horizontal navigation.

(5) Select "Language and region".

(6) Add your preferred language using the drop-down box and move it to the top of the list using the little arrows.

(7) IMPORTANT! Don't forget to scroll to the bottom and click on "Save all and close"!

(8) Click "OK" on this pop-up.

(9) You're done and will be navigated back to the page from step 2!

Hope you didn't want to change any other settings here.

Oh, and the page from step 2 will still be in the original language. Don't worry, the pop-up dialog assured us it will change soon. Word may also still be in the original language, but should change sooner than the page from step 2 (I am still waiting on that one).

A long and detailed YouTube video by Kyle Hill about how an outdated principle of "there is no safe level of ionizing radiation" still pervades nuclear and radiation policy in spite of continuously mounting scientific evidence to the contrary, contributing to unnecessarily great caution with things like medical imaging, and to negative public perception and panic regarding nuclear power.

The TL;DW is that there is a mountain of evidence that small doses of radiation are harmless due to the body's natural defenses and self-repair mechanisms, and in fact according to many studies small doses may in fact reduce the risk of cancer compared to baseline rather than increase it (a phenomenon known as hormesis).

Tämä uuden UI:n viestieditori jokseenkin ärsyttävästi syö koneellani useita ctrl-pikanäppäimiä tekstiasettelua varten. Olen huomannut että esim. seuraavat tulevat syödyksi:

  • Ctrl-C tekee kursiivia
  • Ctrl-X tekee boldia
  • Ctrl-Shift-T luo linkin

Käytän Dvorak-näppäimistöasettelua ja huomasin, että Ctrl-C sijainniltaan vastaisi QWERTY-näppäimistöllä Ctrl-i:tä (italics) ja Ctrl-X Ctrl-B:tä (bold). Eli ilmeisesti nämä on vaan määritelty näppäimistösijaintien mukaan eikä sen mukaan, mikä merkki näppäimessä on.

En löytänyt mistään tapaa kytkeä näitä pois päältä. Olenko vain huono etsimään vai täytyykö asiasta mennä nillittämään editorin kehittäjälle? Mistä kehittäjä voisi löytyä?
