“This isnt exclusive to autism”. Okay I said it, everybody shut up now. Lol yeah I do this all the time too. I reply things over and over.

What do you like to print? I like making useful things. Currently Im working on a system for mobility aids to attach items like phone charger batteries and cup holders… and my ham radio!

Yes, and I’ll include other items I carry on my walker as well: Steam Deck Battery Packs for phones/devices no less then 4 two way radios Ham radio gear Charger cables for everything I own. A change of clothes baby wipes Medication My other wallet. note takeing stuff a laptop? (Sometimes) TI-83+ Graphing Calculator (Gotta have my trusty old guy) Kindle EPI Pens Water Bottle Snacks Other stuff I probably forgot.

My wife is ADHD, and I’m Autistic. I think we balence out each other, though we did have a funny experiance one time where someone (A doctor at a hospital I was at) asked her if she was autistic too, and my wife said, “No, why do you ask?” And the Dr said, “Well they tend to find each other”. I did date one other person before her, and she was on the spectrum, and honestly, it didn’t work very well, because we did not solve each others meltdowns, and when we did, it tended to go badly. On the upside, her ADHD lets her focus on everything that needs to be done at once, while my focus lets me remind her what she was doing, then she reminds me of all the things I didn’t do yet, that didn’t even cross my mind, such as breakfast, or meds. I get asked the tough questions sometimes even like “Have you had water today?”, “Have you eaten?”

Diversity is good for each other I think.

I just bought a compression vest from amazon, its been great.

What app do you use? I use recipesage.

Someone on the internet was wrong. Today it was me.

Well… I visited there site… That’s… Ummm… Well… Maybe there servers can cool down by going to hell? That’s… That’s not good man. I may even have seen some sort of terrorist activity on the home page. I’m not saying I would be happy about saying this… But maybe we should defederate. Eats Humble Pie

I’m not saying there’s no place for defederation. I’m just saying the reasons given seem… Idea driven. Then again my experience with Lemmy has been pretty good so far. The post I saw was a “I don’t like these people and that group over there is thinking about blocking them, let’s join in”. People keep telling me it’s not about taste… Maybe I need to go look for myself. I’m just thinking about a conversation I had on mastodon where someone showed me a (hilarious) screenshot of Facebook telling them that they used hate speech… And it was just talking about a car. I guess… If they “stay in there lane” and leave our instances communitys groups alone, what is the harm in allowing two servers to speak. If on the other hand, they make threats, or mucking up the system (like is the concern with meta on mastodon) then perhaps defederating is the issue. MY PERSONAL CONCERN: Lemmy takes off, mom/grandma makes an account, and starts following content only mom or grandma would like. And boom… I’m horribly confused at the dinner table about those murder parties she’s planning to go to… And I’m going “what the hell? what are you talking about.” Let’s be honest, I want the firehose… I need to keep an eye on those crazies… All of them. Plus… I like to be offended. Keeps me humble to know people don’t like me.

Illegal and spambots are one thing… I just don’t want thought police on sdf. If your reason for defederation is “I don’t like them, we should make them go away.” Then maybe we are no better then the people who say those things about us.

Additional thought… If the people in the defederate camp just go and post things they don’t like… Maybe they defederate with us… Then we don’t stoop, and you get your wish? (I assume it goes both ways) 😜

I’m confused… We’re talking about trying to make two fediverses here… That’s kinda weird. I hear your “don’t mix bleach with ammonia”… But if I see someone say that on Lemmy… Am I going to do it? How does it actually hurt me? I understand it’s hateful and offensive, but this is a free and open internet, and that is one big reason I choose Lemmy/Mastodon over twitter/reddit. It’s like the library… Have you ever seen something at the library you don’t like. An opposing viewpoint? Do we defund the library and close it because there’s a “gay comic book” in it? That happened in my area, very stupid. I come here for all my ideas, and expect to be offended by some. It’s the internet. Plan to be offended… By 9am. When you wake up at 8:55a. And it takes you 4 minutes to pick up your phone.

But then again I could be a crazy conservative or liberal or something… Don’t trust me.

Now where where the memes again.

Why do they ask for anything under 15Eb? I dont want to be asked for anything less then the entire Internet…

My old computer had one… Sadly it was destroyed… Not by choice! Need to pick up some more.

They all get baked in the shower.

Thank you autocorrect, I’m leaving it.

I recall having to explain to someone that we could use netscape navigator, even though we paid for “MacNet” internet service. There was concern that it was not allowed at our house.

It’s working pretty good for me. And federation is great. But I can’t seem to upload photos. Maybe there’s a file size cap.

Can you buy cryptocurrency? SDF has been known to accept that from time to time. Run the ‘dues’ command on the system, or contact membership.

Hello, epl692 here. Been an SDF user since… Oh… 2006 or so. That was a good year for SDF I think. Well… A good year to sign up. Been with the community since. Not always active, but im enjoying the Lemmy and Mastodon instances, board, irc, com, etc. Anyways, good to be here and still figuring this out. I have a reddit account. But always found the site to be somewhat limiting. Maybe I was shy? Anyways. Hello, world. Anyone know of a good command line client? I found neomodem, but I can’t seem to get it to work.

epl692.

Honestly, I’m interested in 8 bit, I’ve played with other stuff and it seems to familiar. The NABU mentioned was a lot of fun in the emulator last night. I want something I might learn some asm on. The commodore was a strong condenser until last night, that’s for sure.

EDIT: also, yes, fires are aweful. Don’t recommend them. They mean dealing with… Insurance… Banks… Other evils.
