I say to myself I'm a little bit autistic. But I'm not really sure. I fit the profile of person one in the article. The reason I'm wondering / even looking at autism is because the meds for my ADHD just make everything w

I spent some time with a computer refurber back in the day. He used to buy old computers from mining operations these things were literally filled to the brim with dust and weird shit. Computers are amazingly resilient if you don't nee

I dunno if y'all realise this but I'd pay for a search engine that black holes CloudFlare and any other sites that think bots shouldn't read their sites.

I aim for "small images" because downloading a full install of Ubuntu is rediculous on anything but gigabit fibre. But I don't aim for minimal images. Using alpine and installing what ever you like without worrying about all

I was using it to determine of I was being unfair in my critique. If nobody else is disliking it maybe my biases are effecting my perception. Not everything is confirmation bias. Some people use social feedback to regulate themselves into n

Gore-tex isnt that great these days, there are better options now. It requires dwr to function, as soon as the dwr fails (pretty fast depending on your usage levels) its ability to breath ceases to function, at that point you're wearin

Hakko 950 soldering iron. It's an analog dial version of an extremely awful digital interface. It's small and compact so takes up little desk space, heats up fast, has incredibly stable heat and adjustments don't require look

Off the shelf software isn't an instant win. You're signing up for lock-in, a set way of doing something, a boundary you can NEVER cross, and domain and language you will never be able to change. This language will leak into your

The brain seems to have control over more of the body than we thought. Is there potential treatments that could result from this? I wonder if type one also exhibits this trait?

As a vegan how do you reconcile the thousands of insects and field animals that get culled during harvesting those lentils? I don't really have a problem with vegetarians but I do struggle to understand the lines they seemingly draw at

Silent reds are what I use after a long time on clears and browns. Can't go back, reds are good for gaming but also far less effort for typing. Never found the tactile bump to be all that useful.

Gerrit is the only thing I've seen do change exploration well. Github is annoying as crap. Can't even comment on a line in the file that needs changing but was missed in the PR, can only comment on a tual changes. Phab is god awfu

Pretty much all the major channels I watch have said similar. The best argument I've seen so far is that it just makes all videos look "liked", and none "disliked" because likes are still shown. Dumbing down the pla

I'm pretty sure the format is the issue. I still don't know how to do arrays in yaml. Is it new line, tab to same indent or same indent + one space, do I need a dash? Does a dash make it an array or an object? It's just simpl

You should checkout srandrd, it lets you run a simple bash script when monitor changes happen. It includes some Env vars so you can figure out what happened. Been a while but I had real issues using udev rules as they created timing problem
