I hate the acquisition of food. I wish autistic friendly food would simply materialise.

Doesn't it require the url? In any case, archive today or archive is is the way.

Didn't read the article, but answering your question in the title:

> autistic people exist, but no real word to describe them adequately

> someone bothers doing research

> more and more people get the diagnosis based on scientific criteria and understanding, which is fluid as time and learning go on

> total number changes if autistic people are born or die, not just willy-nilly as so many people seem to suggest

> some person does not understand that growing number of autism diagnoses != growing number of autistic people

> "Are there more autistic people now?"

Not your fault OP, I'm just really bothered to read something like that. That's if our eyes got an upgrade and we were able to suddenly distinguish one more colour. No, nothing turned the new colour, it was always there. It just wasn't perceivable to us prior to the upgrade.

Some people do sleep calls, where they are on a call the whole night while they sleep. So the purpose is to fall asleep and being on the call until the morning.

I don't do that, it's not my thing at all, so I can't tell anything beyond that. Also not sure if that's what OP does, but it reminded me of it.

Of course there are things that are unacceptable to pirate, one thing being sex workers' content. Their survival very much depends on whether someone pays for their work. As others have said, there is plenty of free content on the internet. If OP is so desperate for a wank (which no one owes them, btw), then they can visit the content that doesn't cost a thing.

We should always show solidarity towards the weakest and poorest of us. Most people who do sex work don't do it out of joy but necessity. Fucking pay them.

Absolute Ausbeute und so demütigend. Die Arbeit einer behinderten Person ist nicht weniger wert als die Arbeit einer geistig und/oder körperlich unversehrten Person.

I see, thanks.

As soon as someone's around to witness their crimes they become almost perfectly docile. Arseholes.

It's a painful realisation that they choose to hurt someone, probably because for the most part if we don't like someone we choose to not further engage with that person instead of actively causing harm (exceptions exist of course).

I'm sorry your mother sucks. I hope your partner understands the intricacies of her actions and won't dismiss anything you say.

Since when is Linux spyware OS? Given that there are Whonix and Qubes that are the exact opposite of spyware-esque OS.

I see, thanks for the clarification! It wasn't possible to comment there, so I commented here.

This is so stupid. I love it.

Wow, really sorry to read it's due to burnout. Thanks for everything though.

 

So, my in-ears have found a new home and now I look for european alternative.

Problem: All european brands have differently shaped silicone parts, which basically means that the in-ear headphones fall out of my ear within 1-2h, no matter the size of the silicone thing - except those from Bose SoundSport (see the model with item model number 761529-0010), those stay in longer (but also not indefinitely).

I've come across possible solutions, namely "Nothing Tech Ear (open)" and "Teufel Airy Sports TWS", but here comes the next problem: I have to wear glasses.

Question: Anyone here who wears glasses AND has experience with one or both of the mentioned products? How does it feel wearing those in-ears? Any pain or discomfort? Do they stay in place or do I have to worry they'll fall off if I tilt my head slightly?

For anyone who knows whether there are in-ears from european producers where the silicone part is shaped similarly to the one from Bose, can you please let me know?

Thank you all
