Here everyone under 22 gets a free bus pass as well. I think it's a great idea.

I'm in the UK and that bill has caused me so much stress and anxiety. ;_;

I'm lucky that my sister already went through the "which drug works?" song and dance. Went to my GP, he prescribed me the same one (sertaline) and a few weeks later started feeling much better (with therapy also playing a part).

The control group was 37 people and the asd people were all recruited from the same place and were the same age (so genetic diversity is a concern).

I don't really trust the findings of this paper because of the same size. The article also leads with the "autism diagnosises have risen in recent years" dogwhistle...

I've played this game and it's pretty fun.

But can we not do the "it's not Pokémon, wink wink" thing? It has a very different feel to Pokémon and equating all creature capturing games to being "pokemon clones" does a great disservice to the genre.

It's actually gotten a lot better over the last few years; Valve has been putting in a lot of work into making gaming "just work" through Steam. It's still a bit jank, but honestly all OSes are a bit jank.

If anyone in this thread is interested, I'd recommend giving Linux Mint a go. There's nothing really to lose.

Anyway, I'm done shilling Linux so I'll let you get back to your Simpsoning. :P
