Not sure if that will help in this particular case, but that looks super neat anyway. I have been planning to build a custom modular synthesizer so I’ll try that out anyway. (Thankfully, it’s Kicad integration is free. Yay!)

You were allowed to skip every Kazon episode except the one where they try to reverse engineer a replicator. (That might help on the next rewatch.)

Aww shit! The mods don’t think so. You must conform to the will of the oligarchies or be erased from history. (Or just pictures. They also like to delete people from official pictures.)

But if anyone missed it:

I SAID THAT MANY PEOPLE DON’T LIKE AUTHORITARIAN DICTATORSHIPS!

There is a chance that the exe is just a wrapper for a compressed archive that contains the app to flash the bios and also the image. If the bios actually supports flashing manually, that would be super convenient.

It depends not only on what you want to control, but also how you want to control it.

I’ll use a fader/slider for when I am recording MIDI and need to return the fader back to very specific spot quickly, or, if I want to “play” something like the cutoff freq on a filter. I can just smack the slider back and forth quickly like I am strumming a guitar.

I’ll usually map knobs when I need very fine controls. If you don’t need to min/max whatever setting you are working with, you put the knob about where it should be and only work a few degrees of rotation. (Rapidly min/max’ing a knob sucks since we typically do not rotate our wrist to mix/max quickly.)

Big Clive has a voice to sleep to. If you are not familiar, he does electronics teardowns and reverse engineering. While I usually just watch his videos to actually learn things, his voice will knock me right out if I need a nap.

You almost wrote a song or a poem.

Everybody move left,

they’re trying to flank.

Bart! Where you going?

Get in that tank!

Not the Apache,

you wank.

You ask the people on the call if they can hear you. If not, adjust volume. Repeat as needed.

Sign language and video only is an option as well.

You probably want to go in several different directions.

Crimes do not need to be committed in anger and crimes can also be petty. Autism doesn’t need to be a direct cause of a crime, but it will probably be a huge contributing factor.

I can’t think of a specific case off top of my head, but I’ll describe a scenario that I know I have been through hundreds of times. This could also apply to anti-social behavior or what would seem to be a disregard for “social rules” in general. (Excuse me while I try to explain a state of mind without a good example.)

Sometimes, an action seems the most logical in the moment. If someone was to exclaim in excitement, “Some one pinch me, because I must be dreaming!”, my first reaction would be to take that statement literally and pinch the person. In my head, the action was justified, and I would expect a positive response when we know that likely would not be the case.

If we scale that up a hair, there have been cases, with me specifically, where an action that seems logical may absolutely not be appropriate or even legal. I absolutely have no intentions of breaking a law or causing trouble, but my brain immediately tries to solve a problem in the simplist way possible and I act on what I can only describe as reflex.

I think what I am trying to describe is very similar to my distinct lack of brain-to-mouth filter. If there is an obvious solution to something, but nobody actually says it out loud, I probably will. Unbeknownst to me, everyone already was thinking what I said, and it wasn’t socially acceptable to actually say it.

Thankfully, the legal system is setup to determine actual intent. Intending to commit a crime can be much more serious than commiting a crime by accident. Even the most serious of crimes are structured this way, ie: manslaughter vs murder; intentional or accidental.

Ask! I am sure your nephew will be glad to give you a not-so-short summary of the entire Pokemon universe. (Most kids that have hobbies like that usually have every tiny detail memorized and are willing to show off their expertise.)

Isn’t that technically VR porn?

It’s possible, but unlikely because there needs to be proof and it needs to be extremely serious. That is the reason I mentioned death threats, actually.

The biggest problem is that even though harassment is clearly defined in my state, “harassment” is still likely subjective.

Well, you can and it’s called harassment. This likely varies on the state or country, but in my state it’s illegal. As usual, if a person gets arrested for this likely depends on the mood of the officer that might have witnessed it, the length of time it’s been going on and if death threats are involved.

In reality, it’s just magnitudes easier to see if someone got punched in the eye.

I have been seeing some positive vibes coming from .ml over the last day or so. Kinda cool, actually.

There is no such thing as normal, so embrace who you are in all of your different ways.

Even if physical handicaps are involved, like you actually can’t walk a straight line or if you have difficulty breathing, that has its own challenges but it’s not wrong.

And yeah. People can be really dick’ish sometimes and that sucks. The sooner you stop giving a fuck what they think, the sooner you can be happier with yourself.

The second I embraced who I was, in my own ways, I could stop killing myself slowly with booze. Alcohol was just my own way of coping and it really sucked.

It’s impossible for me to fully understand what you are going through, but FWIW, I can relate. And trust me, life can get better if you let it, but make no mistake: I know it ain’t as easy as saying the words.

Chin up and keep on keepin’ on!

De-escalation is easy: Russia can get the fuck out of Ukraine. All of it.

If it’s useful to you, that is great.

Will rustc not just overwrite the old binary? If you are just doing a cleanup task, that’s cool. If nuking the last binary is important, then just do it first:

rm ./code; rustc ./code.rs -o ./code; ./code -mah args

I admire the willingness to share your work, but this is easier to do with a disposable one-liner at the prompt that you can repeat with an up arrow and a carriage return, if needed.

Sure, this script would be perfect for something like a cron job, but that would raise quite a few more questions as to why you would complie on a fixed schedule.

I can think of a few edge-cases where this script would be useful, but it just seems like it adds extra steps where extra steps might not be needed.
