It's also very possible that the war is a roudabout consequence of the child rape, assuming Epstein was a Mossad honeypot and Israel really really wants the US to be blowing up Iran right now.

The question is: did he even read it before it got sent over?

It seems like having a staffer draft the letter isn't a huge deal, but a normal president would personally approve it, I imagine.

There are a lot of people out there, so many things can be true at once.

I think it's inevitable that some people use labels as excuses just because awareness of those conditions is so much higher. I also think it's inevitable that there are a lot of people who struggled all their life with things that are difficult to diagnose or weren't on the minds of parents and teachers 30 years ago.

And there's probably no way to ever say definitively, with evidence, either way on this -- but it would blow my fucking mind to find out that Lemmy didn't have a neurospicy percentage of participants significantly higher than the general population.

And even if that were known to be untrue, I think Lemmy also attracts people who are more aware, open, and accepting of that stuff in themselves and others.

Ya know, while at work today I took a break from the computer stuff to sketch out some concepts for plumbing that I'm going to rework at home for one of my hobbies, a pond.

Maybe I would be the guy in the OP that goes around fixing pipes! Then once I'm in the door I'd offer to install Linux on any computers I see.

I like your kart...

Ohh noooo!

Now my backlog of games that should be shrinking is only going to grow by 10% next year instead of 12% like it could have!

The tech companies haven't driven me to the point of utter contempt for consoles like they have for phones, but at the same time I have multiple PCs and more games than I will ever play.

Each one of those F-22s cost as much as a Level 1 trauma center hospital, and it's specialty is filling up entire hospitals in the other side of the world!

My Windows partition at work went unused for several months before I wiped it.

At home it took about two weeks before I reclaimed that space!

My employer has the usual setup of M365 enterprise shit running on Dell laptops.

Fortunately we devs are able to "dual boot" to run Linux on our machines, since our product is an embedded Linux system. (has anybody seen my Windows partition btw? I can't even find anything NTFS formatted, whoopsie!)

All that background info is just so I can pay Microsoft a compliment, even if it has asterisks all over it:

The entire Microsoft suite works just fine in a browser, and in LibreWolf too! I do typically add some permissions for those sites for convenience, since librewolf is privacy/tracking hardened (firefox fork) out of the box. I use Teams and Outlook every day, and occasionally will drop a file into OneDrive or edit something in MS Office. I don't write many office-format documents though, so I'm more likely to be in LibreOffice or a PDF viewer just reading a doc.

You know how in media streaming and gaming there's that balance of whether it is more convenient to be a paying customer versus pirate everything?

Microsoft's stuff is literally better to use in Linux. Even if I need to test the Windows build of something, a VM is SO much more convenient. And I'm not even logged into the microsoft shit on that. If I need something from OneDrive, I go to the browser there too.

Except if THAT is a 12 o'clock flasher, in which case it is correct about 30 times each day.

My experience being born into religious conservative white america is that phrases like "I don't believe in" or "I don't agree with" are just the politically correct language and/or dog whistle for "I hate that shit but I need to act polite."

Looks like he forgot where he was for a second.
