That’s…fucking crazy but really cool. That’s such a great story to go along with the tattoo.

Only incidental to your overall comment but that’s a great tattoo.
1·8 days agoThis is the thing that had Balmer so disgusted with us in the 2000s…~
52·10 days agoNo but it is very neurodivergent to singularly pursue a special interest without any regard for social awareness.
And very neurotypical to label that person as annoying or just doing it for attention.
It’s, actually, likely coming from food-handling wrapping (like microwave popcorn or fast-food wrappers), depending on your eating habits.
Nonsense. I’ve had to replace every suit jacket I’ve ever owned, so far, but I’ll find one that makes the cut, eventually~
1·6 days agoI had been thinking that very thing.
That said (and I know I’m an outlier because I’ve been this way since childhood but) I don’t understand these seeming insistences on avoiding the culture signifiers of periods past.
I always loved being familiar with cultural touchstones of the past (I’ve been working on putting All in the Family on our home media center, recently), especially because it creates a deeper understanding and because as you see how they influenced the ones you grew up with.
Culture is yet another way humans tell stories and how we relate with each other and I truly love that.
0·1 month agoThere’s generally been positive reviews for FuriLab’s FLX1 model:

Their new one, the FLX1s has 2GiB more RAM (for 8GiB, in total). I’ve heard battery gets 2 days without charge even with Android emulation.
I’m probably going to spam this around a bit, since most people don’t seem to know about it, but a reminder that FuriLabs has a (GNU+)Linux phone with decent spec.s and the ability to run Android app.s (from what I’ve heard) pretty decently: https://furilabs.com/
Biggest drawback is it’s based on Halium. Usual growing pains of a new product/company apply but apparently the company is pretty responsive and their dev.s have worked with customers to get things like calling working with the carrier and bands of their country where it hasn’t worked before so improvements move pretty quickly.
Collection of different experiences I’ve variously seen online over the last year or so:

I don’t own one, myself, so I can’t give any personal experience but I’ve seen it around for a few years now but most people don’t seem to even know about it. Maybe there’s a reason for that? But none I’ve ever seen anyone say.
If we strip all context from the original circumstance, I imagine we could.
But that’s not what happened, is it? You elected to editorialize that the user is doing it to be fake-different and to gain attention, despite them never going out of their way to do so, never once that I’ve seen actually say it has anything to do with poisoning AI (not that it matters, either way), and never responding when people disparage them to their “face”; literally, just typing the way they want to type and not responding to the behavior of others, the literal opposite of seeking attention.
Which any autistic person could tell you is highly relatable: they’re just off doing their own thing and it just infuriates the allistic folk who now have to make fun of them and say shit about them because, “Can’t they tell how annoying they’re being? Can’t they read social circumstances? I mean, I’m all for tolerance but they should really understand the way their behavior inconveniences me and makes me uncomfortable and now I’ve got make it their problem.”
It annoys you; fine. Different strokes; but you didn’t just say it annoys you: you assigned motive and character to this person because you’re so annoyed and any neurodivergent person would recognize that behavior from when it happened to them.
That’s clearly what AstralPath was referring to and you, then, lined up to the plate to participate further.
That’s what I was pointing out; it’s not a generalized argument: it’s a capturing of an explicitly neurodivergent experience and taking it out of that context is, of course, going to make it fall apart.
