Outer worlds just felt so uninteresting to me. I played it, and it was a forgettable experience imo

A loooot of the research necessary to make our cutting edge chips still comes from academia

Frankly at this point self-diagnosis shouldn't be as demonized as it is. Because getting a diagnosis is, 1. Expensive, 2. Involved as all hell sometimes, 3. Not all professionals being great, and 4. In certain countries cough the US cough, it gets you literally put on a list

I say this as someone who is diagnosed. Just preface any statements you make with you not being professionally diagnosed and that you think you might likely have it and such, and you should be fine. Ultimately the point of the diagnosis is to help you. If you feel like the autistic framework is useful to understanding yourself, use it.

Tin is a pretty rare metal, so I doubt it makes much sense to make much out of it if you can use something else like aluminium or plastics imstead

Except it would still have severe consequences if it's intelligence. Especially if it may label the person as a traitor

I think nature-y names are awesome, personally

...I'm not biased or anything because of my chosen name, nooooo

Many names have meanings similar to that, and yet they're names. I don't think a name such as khaleesi is inherently bad

Like how trauma literally changes the physical structure of your brain

Since trauma is just all "in your head", after all, right? And yet, it causes physical changes to your body. How else does one explain it if not that mental health and physical health are deeply linked?

As a Norwegian, I don't either. There are plenty other good electric cars

To me minimalism is about consciously thinking about what items I keep in my environment. Mostly this means I don't buy random stuff unless I'm certain I'm going to use it, so I wouldn't even have a canoe in the first place

I do not like when there's a lot of stuff, it stresses me out and overwhelms me, and generally, in my experience, just causes more issues than it solves in the long run. That doesn't mean you should throw away stuff you might need, but more that you actively think about the things you have, instead of mindlessly gathering more

So, what if I were to, say, inherit a canoe and had the space to store it? Would I throw it away? No, but I would donate it to a school yard sale

Well like, you could have a hammer without the canoe, you know

Minimalism isn't about "as little as possible". It's about only having what you need. Basic tools are part of the "only what you need", unless you got readily access to a shared supply of tools

Where? In my country there isn't less variety, no
