A lot are still doing that and haven’t moved up

(Please at least use SFTP!)

There’s a lot of us neurodivergent folks in tech because it suits our needs better than a lot of other fields, and a lot of us just love technology

We’re more prone to being LGBTQIA+ than neurotypical folks, scientifically documented

Makes sense tech would have more trans folks as a result, we pad the numbers a lil bit

This is of course a generalization and actual ND/LGBTQIA+ presence is going to vary based on job, location, how insufferable management is, etc, and not all NDs are LGBTQIA+ and vice versa.

I know what you’re getting at and this isn’t directed at you and I know this is why it’s done, but the capabilities of the phone don’t have any bearing on the use of the AI so why gatekeep it? It’s a dumb way to make a profit.

This is why I cringe at cell phone manufacturers selling cloud and AI features based on phone models because wtf you’re not running that cloud on that handset so why do you gatekeep the product behind that model? It can’t require that many resources, it’s a cloud app!

That’s it, I’m only using epoch from now on, that’s enough of your time zone shenanigans

Meanwhile here I am just tooting with folks in my small part of the community blissfully unaware of

MASTODON

☣️ ToXiCiTy ☢️

Why is Mastodon being treated as a monolithic entity?

I don’t have a tutorial to recommend but starting to play around with Minikube myself, should skip the need for an actual cluster

News sites are freaking stupid.

Sounds nice, wake me up when it’s available

Eh it doesn’t really, there isn’t a surge in radio attacks on cars, it’s just a novel concept so people are feeling spooked

But I’m with you on your first point, security needs to be hardened and the only one who can truly do that is the manufacturer

Another distraction for the big problems not getting solved

Didn’t realize, good to know, thank you!

You totally don’t want to just learn Linux command line and how to use the youtube-dl/yt-dlp packages through WSL or a Linux distro, that would deny corporations all of your money and be way too convenient. Thankfully it’s not intuitive to learn or there would be so much more piracy!

What if the disability was just neurodivergent people trying to make a livelihood in their way with their abilities, but doing so in a neurotypical world where neurotypicals make the rules and tell neurodivergents that they cannot participate because they act in ways that are not socially acceptable or require accomodation to adapt to enforced neurotypical norms?

Maybe we seem broken because we don’t behave the same way, and maybe the disability exists because we’re inconvenient to the neurotypicals running the show to accommodate

Maybe the lives are already being ruined due to societal policy and unwritten rules and a treatment won’t resolve the root cause of a problem that isn’t our fault to begin with.

tl;dr, no, you change

Autism isn’t just a condition, that’s the deal, Autism is a heavily different way of thinking. It shapes Autistic behavior and their viewpoint on life. To them, science has been dedicated to focusing on eradicating a component of their existence, one that a lot of them (definitely not all, there are a lot with your opinion, but I would say a majority) have embraced and wouldn’t want changed. Those Autistics are looking for acceptance, not erasure.

With an anti-Autism treatment available, neurotypical parents will just force it on their Autistic kids, deciding their fate for them, but would also open up an “out” for those who want it, so this isn’t a clear cut good-or-bad thing as one may think.

Yes, I’m sure medical professionals the world over are gauging their assessment criteria on TikTok /s

Lots of animals can. I think they discovered dogs and cats can be in the 60’s or something?
