The "Thank you Mario, but the princess is in another castle" type of win

There's levels to this stuff?

Sounds like the good old fucked bootloader after system update

(Disclaimer: no official diagnosis yet, so I guess this could still have different reasons)

Severe hot flashes and naesea eventually followed by bursts of adrenaline in supermarkets or crowded places (on almost a daily basis).

The fact that I haven't left the house in years without both earplugs and noise-cancelling headphones at hand.

Hey if people wanna play with their lives by talking to me while I'm driving... 😂 That's when I look straight at another car coming onto the intersection and drive straight ahead because I saw it, but that didn't mean it also registered.

ND as a child and during early years of adulthood.

NT during adulthood.

Once I got a sufficiently good grasp of the social rules myself it actually became more difficult to talk to NDs.

I disagree with this. There is such a thing as true confidence, and imo it mostly comes from the knowledge that whatever happens you'll be able to handle the right way. "Fake it til you make it" confidence is called arrogance (and will never turn into actual confidence).

And if I don't I'm just going to be thinking about it all night anyway

The piers and concourses of each hall are connected so that it is possible, on both sides of security or border inspection, to walk between piers and halls, although border control separates Schengen from non-Schengen areas.

Let me clarify. Not keeping departures and arrivals segregated is a Schengen thing. Gates/terminals handling non-Schengen routes need to keep arrivaling and departing passengers separated from each other. When a gate/terminal only handles Schengen (or other common travel area) flights, they are allowed (but not obligated) to not have this separation in place.

unlike the Netherlands the UK does not allow arriving and departing passengers to cross paths

That's a Schengen thing. You'll find the same in Ireland :)

A good place to start because it's a likely culprit is anything mentioning "OOM" (which refers to Out Of Memory)
