- Comment on Would I sound taller if I gave my height as 6'-4"? 4 days ago:
Regarding your edit: Own your funniness. Look how many people made jokes of their own because of yours. If you had just said “oh it’s a stupid idea” and disregarded it, none of this would have happened.
- Comment on Would I sound taller if I gave my height as 6'-4"? 6 days ago:
If you’re doing that, you would sound even taller if you say your height is 10 foot. Maybe you should try that.
But if you’re going there already, why not say you’re 10 yards high? Might as well go big or go to your over-10-yard-high home.

Depends on how they meant it.

That’s why we need universal basic income.

- Comment on Is it true that the natural lifespan of humans is only 38 years old and we only live past that because of loads of modern medicines/technology? 1 week ago:
Most people in the world do not have adequate healthcare, many never seeing a doctor in their lives. Plenty of those live to much older than 38.
I’d say it’s very simple to see that whatever you found there is either misrepresenting majorly or complete bollocks.

- Comment on Can someone give me some primers/resources on understanding politics in the Netherlands? 2 weeks ago:
Neither did the person you replied to do that, nor is what you say actually against democracy. Forcing others to vote a certain way is against democracy, but telling someone why they should vote for something is just advertisement.

At 42 you don’t have ambitions anymore :(
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
he needs to find someone he can grow with and build a proper future with
Or maybe you can let him decide what he wants? Don’t lead him on, but if he decides something, why would you try to tell him his decision is wrong?

How do you add a text overlay that follows an object on the screen?
- Comment on Why is the human body so incredibly bad at responding to colds? 3 weeks ago:
Dude, you are in a million years battle with other organisms trying to exploit and kill you, and you’re fucking winning. I would call that a blazing success. The other organisms are trying their literal best, their survival depends on it, and you just KEEP. ON. WINNING.
- Comment on Agoda axes 50 Singapore staff; warns them not to report to govt agencies or lose their severance pay: sources 3 weeks ago:
My Singapore friend (who escaped to Germany because of stuff like this) says companies can and do just put all kinds of shit like this into contracts, and people take it because they feel like they have no choice.
- Comment on Do you meditate? 4 weeks ago:
Don’t know what it’s called, I just let my thoughts go and focus on the sensations of my senses. I do this all the time except when I specifically need to think, which isn’t super often.
- Comment on My Bank Recently Changed Their Interface to Move Money Between Accounts 4 weeks ago:
Can also think like this, “I have an invoice that I need to pay. So I need to pay to there, let me figure out where to get the money from”, i.e. impetus-based thinking instead of process-based thinking.
- Comment on How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027) 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, mine too, it’s not the fastest and most cutting-edge one, though, maybe that’s what they mean.
- Comment on How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027) 5 weeks ago:
Not really realistic at all. There’s a market for unlocked devices, and where there’s money, there’ll be a way.
- Comment on I'm on the spectrum. How do I live the rest of my life? 5 weeks ago:
Two things.
For most people, asking “why do you talk so little?” is not a slap in the face, it is an attempt at inclusion. It gets interpreted as a slap in the face. As such, your example is not right.
Secondly, when we expect people to take our autistic sensibilities into account, I think it is entirely fair to take their sensibilities into account as well. Most people do not rub autistic people the wrong way on purpose. We do not rub them the wrong way on purpose. Yet it makes sense for both parties to take the other parties sensibilities into account. Since one can only control oneself, one should start this behavior with oneself.

People in general don’t work by any guiding principles, they work by emotions. Emotions don’t care about consistency.
Acting in a consistent way has to be learned in a rational way, and it involves suppressing your emotional reaction. People are only lile this if they explicitly learn/practice this, the default human without learning that does not work like that.
So, the fact that your dad is good to you and bad to other people is very simply explained: he loves you, acting lovingly, and hates others, acting hatefully.

You’re doing what they do to you back to them. This is not hard to understand. You don’t like it, so they don’t like it. You’re essentially “proving your point” by taking revenge. The only thing they hear is that you’re taking revenge.
If it was about boundaries, you could say something along the lines “I don’t like these kind of questions, I am perfectly comfortable being quiet, with this question you make it sound like something is wrong about it. I get this question all the time and I don’t want to answer it anymore.”
- Comment on I'm on the spectrum. How do I live the rest of my life? 1 month ago:
I’m not talking about in real life. I’m talking about your comments right here that are that way. You also edited your comment here, at first you were saying something about the person you’re replying to being boring.
- Comment on I'm on the spectrum. How do I live the rest of my life? 1 month ago:
Your coworkers do it to you and if frustrates you, but you’re doing it to them which frustrates them.
They openly admit to doing the bad behavior back to them.
why I don’t talk more, why they feel offended if I answer asking why they talk so much
There is no need to go for confrontation, asking why someone talks so little might just be a way of trying to include them in a group or getting to know them, and it sounds like OP just responds as hostile as possible. They could just say “I’m comfortable talking little” or whatever.
- Comment on I'm on the spectrum. How do I live the rest of my life? 1 month ago:
I’m an autistic introvert and upvoted them. You really don’t see how you immediately go for personal attacks and derogatory behavior? You don’t need to tell people they’re being boring. You can just leave and not interact and thus not hurt their feelings.

Weigh 10 hazelnuts, weigh all hazelnuts, do basic math.

Nucleus Coop (for Windows only unfortunately) makes lots of games that ordinarily don’t have offline splitscreen to work in that way.

You can play a lot of games splitscreen coop with nucleus, Windows only unfortunately.

Horde here. If you get any Linux OS with KDE plasma as desktop it’ll feel pretty much the same as Windows, if you’re not a computer person you’ll likely not even notice the difference. Install the KDE version of EndeavorOS for example. Horde end

The question is, what really is different between a woman or a short man in basketball? Both can not compete because of their genetics.
