Understandable
  • There was a lot of general child-hate on that sub. If people are going to have a community here posting when kids doing weird or silly things, let's not name it something that will attract toxic garbage

    The future is here
  • God dammit, I watched that movie for the first time like a month ago (my housemates wanted to watch it with me) and since then I'm (apparently) suddenly seeing references for the first time

    Spectrum rule
  • This misconception is also why— for the love of fucking god— people need to stop calling autism a "spectrum". It doesn't matter if it is one, what matters is what people think that means. There is no "extremely autistic" or "a little bit autistic"— those people are referring to cognitive ability. Those kinds of people don't know the difference between autism and general intellectual disability. Autism as we "know" it is a fucking disaster of an understanding, and I will die long before we can get people to think correctly about it.

    Also, the problem with people really, super wanting to be "autistic" because it makes them "special", not knowing that autism is a full-neurological phenomenon and not just "you think different". That's another huge reason why nobody actually knows what it is and that, yes, it does in fact have a finite list of symptoms/traits. x_x

    iFixit is breaking up with Samsung. ‘Samsung’s approach to repairability does not align with our mission,’ says iFixit’s CEO.
  • Samsung has always been garbage, and they've tricked you into thinking they're premium just like Apple does. My $2000 Samsung TV from 2016 suddenly had serious light bleed at the 2-year mark. Turns out on the forums, lots of people complained about that model having light bleed at the two-year mark. The support forums morons refused to do refunds. My Samsung remote stopped working properly until I reinsert the batteries. Samsung folding phones break from folding, Samsung batteries explode, Samsung products are cheap garbage made to break that try to sell you on a single "cutting edge" feature. Samsung is planned obsolescence. Don't buy Samsung.

    Every base is base 10
    1. This is why I say "10" is not a number, it just means one big group and zero remainder.
    2. I am a huuuuge proponent of dozenal (base-12)

    Get rid of them.
  • Dude. How many links do you want to current horror-level news stories involving anti-abortion laws? And I mean the stuff that's covered by ten of the biggest outlets across the country, minimum.

    Dilemma
  • Ingrown toenails happen for all sorts of reasons. Some people like me have perfect toenails except for that one bent nail due to it being smashed under something that one time. There's no need for you to be an edgy dick to strangers.
