Makes sense, thanks for the (late) explanation xD

Well, my brain seems to be affected by it according to that test (difference score of 11) if I interpret the scale correctly

But well, I also got autism and quite a few other mental conditions and learned all my life to cope quite well with all my disabilities; that’s why I specifically outsource direction question to a visualization that make the answer more tangible for me than listening to my intuition.

But well, what works for some doesn’t necessarily work for all. And probably my other conditions have some influence on it as well. We’re all different, after all; even if sharing a few traits.

That’s why I explicitly stated local.*

I don’t care which country I’m in and how they are driving there. I obviously visualize cars I grew up with.

E: well, I see how local can be interpreted as exactly the opposite of what I mean… oops

I get that. My intuition often mixes both up, too.

That’s why I trained myself to say “driver-side” and “passenger-side” in my head when left or right come up. To a point where I don’t even have to think about thinking about it. I just visualize which side of car is meant instead of the rather abstract concept of left and right

Might not help you; but it helps me

I always imagine a (local) car, and remember which side the driver sits on

Not necessarily

You could twist the rules.

Instead of hearing “hit” you get handed the shot you just hit

I don’t see the connection?

I mean, the answer is actually yes (if I understand correctly that once a single question mark led to me being laid) , but I don’t understand how you come up with the question

When I was younger (and it wasn’t about drinking but smoking):

The important parts are paint and maintenance.

Give a commie block a fresh coat of paint every decade or so and they can look good (though I just don’t like flat roofs. But that’s personal taste.)

But while a somewhat run down european style house can still have some charme for longer (guess I’m biased here) a run down commie block in gray and with cracks in the facade will quickly start to look depressing.

And as they are often chosen for cost reasons inside capitalistic environments, they are often neglected.

So, the problem is not commie blocks, but how they are maintained. And as often we tend to search for the extreme examples if we (dis)like something.

I would be more concerned about phantom pain.

Sure, your fried receptors are not firing anymore; but your head may interpret the absence of any sensory input as pain.

2FA is just a second password and has nothing to do with encryption. Can simply be removed.

They could bypass this authentication without problems, if they want. I lost my phone and my google business account got restored regardless of 2FA. It’s just a button for the support. The problem is the identification, especially of private customers (dunno if they would even do that).

Encryption passwords aren’t time-based either, they must be static.

Every now and then is every 90 days.

I see he is using a simple Self-signed one; they’re often quite easy to automate. While just tangential to my proficiency I could have a quick chat with him and then throw the appropriate tutorials for the specific hosting solution (and a helping hand, if needed) at him to never have to renew it manually again.

This reminds me of an old screenshot of mine:

I don’t really get the meme.

Was on workation with my company and the hotel had a taco bell. on the outside.
First taco bell in my life, and all expenses are paid by the company.

We ate taco bell for the whole week daily for lunch (and burritos for evening, but from a proper mexican restaurant)

Normally I have a pretty weak stomach, but it seems like my stomach was never as stable as in this one week taco&burrito-only -diet

You can plot anything.

I use it mostly to print drawings onto birthday cards.

(btw, I totally agree that OPs results are far from look handwritten; just wanted to stand in for some benefits of plotting in general. If I would try what op does I guess I would try things very differently)

Benefits of a plotter in this case:

• easier to align with the existing lines on the paper
• the ink doesn’t look printed (depending on the pen; I would use a blue ball-pen to make text look more authentic)
• there are pressure-marks left on the paper, you wouldn’t have these on regular printers

Can confirm this.

I visited several concentration camps in different countries with my school (not mandatory on curriculum; but visiting Auschwitz is something that really brings home the horrors and that’s why the school offers it to older students (together with psychological staff))

I learned about Nazi-History for 2, maybe 3 years in school.

Therefore I can say that in general we are not afraid to learn/teach about the time; to prevent that it happens again (which seemingly didn’t work as a significant parts goes towards the right again… but I digress)

That said: There was never a focus on german companies. Sure, here and there you will find some references and images as a sidenote in a school history book; but nothing that was talked about long enough to got stuck in my brain.

So I wouldn’t deny that some of us are a bit blind in regards to the still-running businesses that were involved with the nazis. And if someone brings it up it’s often just dismissed with sth. alike “Well, at that time you had to cooperate with the nazis or ceise to exist”.

But saying we’re “uncomfortable” about the history is wrong in the way it was said; sure, we (at least those with my opinion) are not proud of what happened and it’s not our favorite topic, but it’s not like we just pretend it never happened

wtf? 100$ per inhaler for long-term treatment?

My inhalers cost my insurance 100€ for 6 (120 usages per inhalter = yearly dose)

(not op)

Sure, but in this case, most of the lemmy-clients (FOSS or not) are bad.

I have problems logging into my accounts (seems like some instances want my email as a username and many clients cannot handle this after I switched accounts), some clients don’t feature editing or deleting your posts, some clients don’t show my saved content, some clients don’t allow to see what you posted

Sure, much of this is because they started from scratch and will maybe surpass sync some day; but right now I couldn’t find something that isn’t worth. (didn’t try infinity yet, tho)

it’s not necessarily “FOSS is bad”; it’s just that the current lemmy-ecosystem is in it’s child shoes (I have the feeling this proverb doesn’t work in english?)

That said: I use Sync4Lemmy since 5 minutes and this is my first comment; so let’s see if/what it will deliver
