  • What does the install script set up for you? I’d be trying to install gnome and get audio working. Last time I tried I got networking set up even though the ncurses installer couldn’t handle setting it up for me, and I got gnome installed, but wasn’t able to get audio working when I gave up and installed fedora cause I wanted a working computer (I broke my old laptop and was learning on the replacement, so I kinda just wanted it up and running)

    My understanding is that rossman actually isnt involved anymore, but I haven’t followed things very closely. Someone brought up him no longer being involved last time folks were discussing issues with futo here on lemmy.

    I switched back to heliboard because of the issues 🤷🏻‍♂️





  • If you live in a state where she can see you as a patient and time zones make sense, Meg Danforth at triangle cbt-i is by far the most capable sleep provider I have ever seen and specializes in treating insomnia, and I’ve seen a ton of sleep providers at this point (I have a circadian rhythm disorder but used to also have sleep onset insomnia). She may also be the best provider I’ve ever seen, in any speciality. Just looked up her new site (I used to see her through major hospital before she moved to her own private practice doing telehealth) and learned are only 150 cbti practitioners in the US certified by the board of behavioral sleep medicine, and she’s one of them. She’s also a grade A wonderful human.

    Sending love, I hope you find a path to sleep that sucks less

    The reason this post connects with people is that it validates a very well understood connection between aging and difficulty sleeping

    Turning around and invalidating people in response and telling people its their own fault is frankly silly. Just because you resolved your sleep/health issues by taking better care of yourself doesn’t mean everyone else struggling with sleep is just an unhealthy bum who should do better

    Aging tends to bring with it sleep problems that aren’t caused by lifestyle factors associated with poorer health, and even in cases where someones health issues are because theyre not taking good enough care of themselves, telling those people its their own fault generally overlooks socioeconomic factors- it usually amounts to blaming people for being poor, or mentally unwell

    Source: I have a severe sleep disorder and at 27, I’ve seen a multitude of sleep doctors (and am still searching for a Dr who is knowlegable enough about my condition to try and help me beyond what I’m already doing) and spent a fair chunk of my life at this point sitting across from one discussing sleep issues
