I love watching these because they're so validating and insightful. I never had realized that most people have very different experiences. I'm here like, "You mean to tell me this is not your experience‽" to my imaginary audience that includes NTs.

So apparently, when NTs walk down the street, their experience is like that of a movie: only experience what they want to focus on. They don't hear everything like in this video or get hit hard with the light intensity changes. Can someone, autistic or NT, confirm that?

Personal note:

Let's imagine I'm somewhere loud and busy, so I shut down to limit being overwhelmed, while everyone else is having a nice time. It's so nice, they prefer it to being somewhere more quiet and calm. Then, when we get home, I just want to lay down in peace or with something calm and distracting on video, while they're ready to go. WTF. So like my entire life, I've thought that I was too sensitive or immature because I couldn't handle the regular experiences that everyone else could, so I insisted on enduring that to stop being ridiculed and to be included in social groups, but what I was really doing was placing myself in hurtful situations and learning to dissociate. Waowwww, wa-waowwwww 😮

Can someone point me to a helpful beginners resource explaining some Linux basics? Like what is the difference between "distro", which is what, like Ubuntu, fedora, Debian (? Or is that a category of distro?) And desktop environment which is what, KDE, Lubuntu, gnome? Like I don't even know I have these categories right let alone understand why I'd pick one over another and what practical effects it will have- which apps will I/won't I be able to install, etc...

I'm not expecting anyone to answer these questions for me, but if you could point me to something already written, I'd appreciate it.

From Nick Levene

Tawny owl at the back of my house. It was fairly dark but held it together at a low shutter speed and very high ISO.

Basically title. How does one go about pairing third party services like streaming services to a mini PC so that you can stream it on your dumb / degoogled TV? I don't really know how TVs work, much less mini PCs, so if anybody could dumb it down for me I'd appreciate it. What does your setup look like, if you have a dumb TV (e.g running kodiTV without network connection)?

Diese Karte wurde mir in einem Traum offenbart, also habe ich sie in Einfaltspinsel (GNU-Bildermanipulationsprogramm) nachgebaut um die frohe Botschaft (geteiltes Bayern) zu verbreiten.
