I've seen a fair amount of anecdotal theories that sensory sensitivities get worse with age; however I'm curious as to whether that may be caused by many older autistic people experiencing which also makes sensory stuff worse...

@AutieScot anecdotal but mine definitely get worse when I'm in burnout - they are incredibly bad right now.

1857 in , , and the :

The Sepoy Mutiny was a major uprising against the rule of the British East India Company.

The Mexican Reform War was a result of the promulgation of the Constitution of 1857, fiercely opposed by Conservatives and the Catholic Church.

The Panic of 1857 was triggered and the Dred Scott v. Sandford decision was held by the Supreme Court.

It’s not remarkable that all these events occurred.

It’s remarkable they all occurred in the same year, with the as the fastest method of communication.

What the new tech creator-content platforms and economy miss

Adam Neely on "quitting " puts two ideas together (that I hadn't) and implicitly asks "what if the new platform/economy fails you"

Longevity and freedom from traditional gatekeepers. The content-creator economy fails on these promises.

Burn out is baked in and ignoring the traditional gate-keepers is at your own very serious risk.

The world is the same, tech is just milking us.

@maegul @workreform I've been referring to this as "the single platform creator trap" - a creator who is trapped by their own belief that they can't control the value they bring, is stuck within one third-party online platform, and who doesn't fundamentally know how to recreate their success or take it elsewhere.

Creators who can make multiple platforms work always always always have way more control.

It's a self-imposed alienation from owning the means of production in Marxist terms.

From @LineageOS install instructions - success is normal, but errors are also fine:

> Normally, adb will report Total xfer: 1.00x, but in some cases, even if the process succeeds the output will stop at 47% and report adb: failed to read command: Success. In some cases it will report adb: failed to read command: No error or adb: failed to read command: Undefined error: 0 which is also fine.

yeah its just you

or maybe i didnt understand it…

zak OP ,
@zak@social.goodanser.com avatar

@tubaruco It's from these installation instructions, which say "it might error, but that's fine". Usually error messages mean it's not fine, so I found it fairly amusing.

@Judeet88 This thought might help you and me (https://lethallava.land/notes/9gp5hypoklkeflav; https://merveilles.town/@akkartik/105737744499263260) feel good about ourselves, but we still suffer some harm by being part of a society that grew dependent on Youtube. Might not seem fair, but there's a problem here and it impacts us.

My first eReader was a Kobo, so it makes sense that my return to recreational reading starts with another Kobo.

Gotta say, the Clara 2E is really, really, really nice.

Guess I gotta start looking into... ? This the hashtag y'all are at?

@elonjet he seriously flew from Hawthorne to Long Beach?! He should've drove a Tesla through one of his tunnels.

@elonjet You are fucking kidding me. It’s a 23 minute drive according to Apple Maps. Even with a private jet, it would take longer to fly. And you don’t have a car on one end or the other. This dude owns fucking Tesla; he couldn’t use that instead of burning 100+ gallons of jet fuel?
