I have strictly instructed my family, including my wife, that if I ever develop alzheimers I want to be euthanized. If I am sufficiently lucid at the point of diagnosis I will have no problem overdosing on something and going out in peace.

It's constant and relentless. I am what some people call "gifted" but it never really feels that way. I have a good job that bores me to death and a battle so hard all day to make it work. I'm good at lots of different things, from programming, to music production, to writing, to building things, but I can't devote any meaningful amount of time to any of them, and I neglect all the important aspects of my life. My physical and mental health are fucked, I'm in debt for no good reason, and at this point I think my adhd meds make it worse, but if I don't take them I'm basically in a comatose state. It's honestly no wonder that we're statistically likely to die 10 years earlier than average.

 

Specs are slightly in flux right now, but basically it's an HP ML310e Gen 8, with a random HDD cage on top for 4 additional drives, and a bunch of fans zip tied to the front to cool the 6 internal drives. Oh, and a little 7" display stuck to the side which I'll get a stats readout on soon.

Xeon E3-1220 v3, 32GB ECC RAM, 40TB array, Quadro M2000.

It's running Unraid and I use it as a media server (Plex, Sonarr, Radarr) as well as a backup for my music and video production, and general stuff (NextCloud, Photoprism).

The machine itself is so stupid and hacked together, built entirely from used parts I got cheap on ebay. It's probably cost me £300 max, all in.
