I whouln’t replace the existing PC cooling or connect the air pump directly to it. Just something to suck out the hot air behind it. Even just a vent on the desk above the area might work.

I was in elementary in Canada early 90’s. My school was weird. There’s a large Mennonite community in the area where I grew up so a large percentage (more than 50%) of the kids in this school were Mennonite. For those unfamiliar, these are similar to Amish. Such farmers with strong religious views, most of them were “old order” meaning they grew up in homes with little to no electricity. They also finish school at age 12 regardless of progress. This meant that they were exempt from a lot of the classes my tiny public school had to offer. No French, computing, or Sex Ed. A lot of them were also in special Ed. I’m not going to sugar coat this. It’s forbidden from them to marry outside of their culture and only like 4 families came to the area. So there’s a lot of disabilities as a result of inbreeding with that community.

All this to say that my school had absolutely no clue how to deal with my undiagnosed autism. But they seemed to have decent funding due to the much higher needs.

I was in special Ed via French exemption status. This means I never learned french. I’d instead be placed in a room with all the Mennonite kids often in a corner trying to read. Eventually I was put into some kind of program. A neurologist should come by and do experiments on me. Nothing weird, just testing my fine motor skills. They (falsely) diagnosed me with “elementary tremors” a pediatric doctor upped this to a “retardation caused by mild down syndrome” (extremely wrong) after years of that nonsense they decided to use this crazy new fangled technology to give me a leg up with writing. I was given a Macintosh computer. I had a desk with tiny wheels and my 4th grade self had to wheel this from class to class (including “portables”). Of course this was pretty obsolete tech even for its time. My parents got me an Alpha Smart which was way better. By 6th grade I had a personal support worker to help get me caught up. I failed grades 3-6 but was ‘placed’ into the next grade anyway and never made to repeat anything.

Highschool was very different, no Mennonite, so way less funding. It was still a French exemption class but there were only about 5 other students in the class. It seemed to be less about education, or assessment of my condition. It was some watching videos and doing some analysis. It was mostly just a time to catch up on homework. Often there wasn’t even a teacher present.

How many times has this man retired now? I hope he takes good care of himself though. Man wrote the sound track to many of our lives.

Between this and Pokémon sleep I’m questioning why Nintendo needs to watch us sleep.

Still shocked they kicked out Pluto over a doping scandal.

Give it all away anyway. Screw that genie, wealth hoarding jerk. At worst he kills you and you leave a saintly legacy.

Often me. I make tools/interactions for learning management systems. So the back end is a thid party I have no controll over. Just take the api and make the magic happen.

You need me to save data somewhere but don’t want to buy server space? Sure we can cram that into places it’s not ment to go within the system. It will slow things down and likly cause issues but it’s free.

Guess the game.

Your friend has enslaved a local tribesmen and is having them craft a hat using leather made from their sons skin.

Bragging is subjective.

Some take my bitching and moaning that I was up all night working on ____ because the project is a complete mess and they wanted it today as “bragging”.

Its performance review time, i hate myself and rent is expensive.

My time management is poor because my project managers is even worse

What one is working for you?

I get this, I clear my cookies, it goes away for awhile. I wonder if I can just find the specific cookie and remove it frequently this whould just stop.

I mean I just get headaches when games do it too much.

I 100% agree with accessibility features. This includes some of the newer considerations.

• no-strobe mode
• normalized volume mode (makes it so sound doesn’t spike up suddenly, sudden loud noises are not nice)
• greater setting for subtitles, size, color, descriptive vs transcription. And keep ui elements out of the caption zones!
• documentation written in simple language for ease of readability.
• read back for all written content. Not just the first damn word of a text box. (Seriouly a lot of games do this now its this is just annoying!)

I once saw a thing where a DM (D&D) had an anonymous survey of common sensitive topics. He’d gage what his players where comfortable with prior to starting a campaign and adjust the story accordingly. Games just need this.

I think surface level info is fine for an explainer video. That’s kind if the point. He could do a little more to push people towards more detailed sources of info but he’s not worse then most other explainer and he seems to be sourcing things decently.

I watch some of his stuff but I wouldn’t blame anyone for choosing not to. The guys presentation of the research is just annoyingly pretentious and he seems to have a bit of an ego.

I get it his shtick is that he’s a hipster journalist referring to your audiance as “guys”. Its just not working for me.

Ah so it may be possible in the future. That whould be cool. Theres a lot of little webcomics out there struggling to be seen. Somthing like that could really help some of artist I think. And I’d love a platform for getting all the updates on the comics I read all in one place.

Probably a dumb question.

But if a site is using comicpress will it now be possible to see updates of that site via Lemmy?
