Zombies are getting to be parents now?

Woke has gone too far, in my day they would have gotten a bullet between the eyes.

Tbf, there probably is a high correlation between those.

Stahp, my games already perform better on linux with wine then they did on windows at this rate…

Actually please keep going !!!

Not to disagree on the topic but “if you can’t finnish it, don’t start it” is absolutely horrible advice when its about a creative art like writing.

If i am not wrong there is a whole writing style about just starting without knowing yourself where its going to end.

I highly dislike capitalism but i can see that once you have enough material to sell some of it, even if incomplete as a series. Many people would take the opportunity. I don’t know the authors economic background but for a starving artist with high potential that first book sales could be the push required to finish a series.

I blame capitalism, both for putting artists in this position and for the disrespect of big media towards their own content quality. Its always the money must flow, at every cost!

In my experience the suppressing of the impulsive parts of my brain also suppressed my natural curiosity.

I can agree on being more alert but i feel the stay interested is assumption.

To answer the question directly:

Yes, so common its a textbook level stereotype.

But i am willing to argue what it really is, because as i have come to realise a definite line between child and adult hood does not actually exist.

As people grow older social life becomes more complex and how hou are perceived plays a big role. People are thought that acting grown up is good and are belittled for acting childish.

Teens eventually distance themselves from their childhood as an attempt to seem more mature to their peers. Even if they secretly really stil love that thing.

Autists often lack the luxury to do this, your same aged peers have seen through your young mask time and time before, they know your different you are already an outsider.

Because you don’t have a high social standing that you can lose on a whim it matters less if people continue to see you “being weird” and you found you really like those things… in a world where there are many things you don’t.

But its not that autism directly makes you like things we deem childish, its that we are more honest about what we like, and society is following us here. Just have a look at all the Pokémon and Hogwarts stuff for adults. Spongebobmemes.

Adults who play is decreasingly no longer a taboo and the stereotype will fall.

But there is also the related stereotype of having friends outside your age group. Basically for those people it’s easier to mask.

Younger kids see a cool older kid that isn’t belittling them for being kids and even plays with them. You’re the coolest person in the world for them if you do that.

Older people just see a young inexperienced someone all the way while being experienced enough to be less judgmental and more practical socially. They have no need or desire to be rude at you because you are not competing for a social standing like teens are in school.

ADD and autism are one stone trow removed from each other most people that have one have a little of both.

From a neurodivergent perspective they are all the same bigger spectrum that includes dyslexia, cdc, ocd…

I think its very likely your mom is overworked partly because she is also juggling her own challenges between it all.

You didn’t mention a lot of details about your dad but same kinds stick togetger so i am highly suspecting there is no one in your family that isn’t or wasn’t a “special kid”

NTA

You said you feel like this is your fault, but really how would it be. You are just a kid trying to make sense of your life and survive.

And so is your sister.

Your mother sounds overworked and ridden with self doubt. But what i am missing here is some general knowledge about autism.

It seems your treated as different, “the special one” but autistic reality is that were all just different combinations of individual brain modules.

Do those modules mostly work like most other people, you’re neurotypical. Do they work differently you’re neurodivergent.

But you don’t develop autistic brain-functions out of nowhere. Parts are almost certainly inherited. You might have a mix that enhances some aspects but i can guarantee you’re are in a family of neurodivergent. Unofficially but helpful you may privately consider your family members to be “different kind of autistic” rather then “normal” incl your mom.

Your mom panicking about your sister is a big tell, she seemed spooked. It is possible your sister is going trough depression, which may be a side effect of underlying neurodivergence which she might need help for.

Your parents would need to break the stigma and treat both you and your sister as equals who can grow themselves with each their own proficiencies and challenges and needs.

This probably means trusting you with some more independence, and allowing your sister to express that she needs extra care. A possible angle to suggest something is a dokter once told Me “What works for autistic people often works for everyone” you don’t have to discuss wether or not they are autistic (people get really upset if you do that) but you can affirm that she needs some of the care that they give you, while you want the space to grow to not need it anymore.

Good luck!

I would love to see a documentary about this at some point.

I feel like Disney is generally known to fit the “big evil corporation” stereotype, but surely this wasn’t always the case.

When did perception change? What where the first big fuckups?

I have done research into what product i should buy three times and i am still not sure enough to answer this. That says enough about how confusing the modern tech market is.

They are definitly proprietary and a competitor to LDAC from sony. Finding something that supports both sennheiser and sony headsets without being overpriced is a nightmare.

The renaming while still selling it with older packaging for years has been angering me since it happend.

Honestly it would not be so much of a problem if things where actually labeled appropriately with all the actual specs and support features on the package but its more profitable to keep you guessing (and going for the higher priced one just in case)

They do the same thing with Bluetooth audio transmission usb, their “high quality audio” and “ps5 compatible” but does not tell me wether it supports aptx or not?

Also the whole “buy a product clearly pictured with usb A type connector, receive a usb C type connector variant, if lucky, with an added adapter.

Sorry, 1/3 based on the 8 hours of sleep 8 hours of work 8 hours of free time structure.

You forget the part where you spend *1/3 of your day (if not more) performing complex operations mostly for the sake of “number goes up” because that is important to something called “the economy”.

The part you describe is actually the “free time” part of the day.

I think a field sobriety test usually involves more then one test, at least if you can communicate a reasonable reason why you may fail one.

I believe they may also just look at your behaviour during the interaction.

“Couldn’t walk a straight line but mentioned a recent leg surgery”

Vs

“Couldn’t walk a straight line but believed they did, started an argument about it. Failed secondary test while continuing to insist they passed the first test”

Also autistic : Rules are a construct we ourself shape and create in order to archive the illusion of control over the raw anarchy that is the reality of free will and sovereign thought.

Does it feed more beasts then using github in general does?

People have hooked up scripts to automate trade based on celebrities using certain hashtags or other data for years.

A non insignificant portion of people has absolutely hooked up an ai to it. I don’t know any, but i take that bet in a heartbeat.

Some will do it responsibly, as an experiment with money they are prepared to loose.

Ai companies themselves might try this as an internal test, like how atrophic has claude managing a real vending machine (which got manipulated into selling tungsten cubes following customer feedback)

Others have probably completely destroyed their own lives. A few may have lucked out.

If its critical, don’t give it to ai without having a secured backup it can’t touch.

There is some truth into this reasoning.

But not like this. Not in this climate, not until ai based tools can actually demonstrate any benefit in aiding an artist instead of trying to replace them with low quality slop.

The best lies are build on a grain of truth and that they speak out about this at all is a big tell to how they would rather move.

But we should acknowledge, npc ai, dynamic ingame weather, the decades old blending tool in Photoshop Technically many things are ai or could benefit and i don’t hear many people discuss where to draw the line exactly.

Personally i’d say, at generated images and text/scrip. But i have been day banned on a no-ai place for mentioning npc ai before.
