If you can put your dog in a bag. It’s not the dog they are trying to keep out.

Move to NL, we dont have locks on our gas hoses, so when you let go it stops

Actually I had Windows games running smoother on Linux. Windows has become so extremely bloated, and the translation layer has become more optimized.

Did you had a pause between “way” and “I”? I presume not since there is no comma “no way, I like”

I personally run an ESP32 with ESPHOME integrated into Home Assistant. So I can also say this is a good way

Firefox does have a kills witch you can toggle. This would turn off all AI features, You can try if you like that more?

Ultra Ultra Violet

I followed cources of the VRchat (no VR required) community called “helping hands”. They create events classes, and they have a lot of members with a ton of patience that want to ‘talk’ to you

I’ve also used the best (relatively speaking, it ain’t a great UI) app called “sign language ASL Pocket sign” (Android).

On a side note, if I get old and lose my hearing, I would still know the basics to sign. Which has the ability to change that part of my life.

You still should, I did and can confirm it has its useful parts. I can sign in loud work locations and non-signers quite often understand me if they know some basics.

It has also already been proven to be useful with my partner. Being able to sign “I don’t like it here, can we move” feels more polite than speaking it.

It has also been useful in the club. Signing “toilet” and just walking away without anyone getting confused or following me, or sign like “one beer” so you don’t need to scream

This should maybe have been listed on https://moeilijklastig.nl/verloopjes/

Just to put the dot back at the horizon, you can have a “normal” job. If you can find something you like and can (hyper) focus on it’s details you can excel at it.

I’ve been going into electronics, and I make the same as my partner does. The hardest part of my job for me is the social aspect, but the machines at least don’t need to be talked to. Being a man of rules and details comes in verry handy for programming and such too.

Another thing to note is that the generally noted “smartest” people in history most likely had a form of autism. It can of course not be proven, but they where hyper focused in the area they are known for. But dint know or where bad at other ‘simpler’ areas.

To come back to your question of making money at home, I would personally go into 3D printing or so. It’s rewarding, lots to learn, and there is still room to make a buck

Make sure to check about SSI rules before doing anything btw

I live this series. Is there anywhere a collection where I can see them all?

HL3, we must believe

I have opened and tried to fix all my things. Including multiple cheap mouses. Although I have not always been successful, I mostly see it as an experience, and as a learning moment. It’s broken anyway, so it could only get better. Quite often I’m able to improve on it too! (add USB C charging to a mouse)

Best option is a new seperate drive of course.

But besides that I can recommend making a image of the drive ans storing it somewhere. This way you can flash everything back, there would be a ton of applications that would not run if you try and restore the files only.

Last option should be to customly copy files from folders around. This would not guarantee you can restore Windows. But you maybe would be able to restore config at a much lower storage amount

System confused. It works in nibbles

Maybe if you just connect one side of the life wire to it. And ground the other one. That could work better

As much as I like cats. I can also see/share your point. Here in NL a company is legally not allowed to cut power for ‘saving a cat’ reason, and will be heavily fined for it.

A theory, it’s you life somewhere warm you want white light. If you life somewhere cold you want warm orange light

For me yes, and I hate I can’t move it
