When we hear about the rise of neurodivergent people, children, teens and young adults, we should realize that from the 1940-1990’s we saw an uptake in the use of pesticides, insecticides, tetra ethyl lead in gasoline, tobacco use, and questionable medications that we didn’t fully understand.
Sometimes effects to human health take decades and generations before they fully manifest.
@HopelessDemigod Lead in gasoline started in the 1920s and was phased out in the 1970s. If you are concerned with how different social factors may be affecting @actuallyautistic and other neurodivergent people you need to actually listen to them when they tell you what's happening to them.
Baldur's Gate 3 IS a unicorn. No other studio could make it.
Anyone asking why other studios doesn't make games like this misses THE key point: Larian is privately owned. They don't have a publisher like say EA that deliberately sabotage the development process for profit.
@WhyNotZoidberg What really grinds me is, that all this corporate meddling doesn't even guarantee that a game will be profitable at all. It's all glorified guessing, done by people who don't actually care about the medium they are making decisions about.
And every time one of their soulless amalgamations of mindless trend chasing fails gloriously, they fail to learn any lesson from it, it's frustrating.
Ich finde es toll, wie viele Literaturmenschen im #Fediverse unterwegs sind. #neuhier ist zum Beispiel die Philologin @AndreaStrobl. Vielleicht wollt ihr ihr folgen?
@Sascha_Raubal Super. Danke für diese Liste, die weiterhelfen dürfte. Habe sie zur eigenen Verwendung in Friendica in meinem info-Ordner gespeichert. Noch den Verweis auf literatur.social dazu, dann müsste man sich ja eigentlich finden können …

I've been trying to solve a problem with my arch (endeavour) instalation and wanted to know if anyone here can help
Everything is working well, excepting the WiFi connection. It is extremely slow, sometimes disconnecting from the network, and in the task bar, the WiFi icon shows that the signal strength is weak, although the router is in the same room. Switching between r8168 and r8169 as recommended doesnt work. Any ideas?
@Rustmilian@linux Yeah, it's close to impossible to find documentation on what to do here. I'm trying to find out how is it that Fedora works well with the same hardware, and even considering changing the card itself, but for the moment at least my connection is much more stable after setting the iwlwifi.conf file
Once again, thank you for your help!

#Numismatic show and tell for a lesser known Ptolemaic god, Harpokrates, a Hellenic interpretation of the Egyptian god of the newborn sun, Horus, as a child. Usually depicted with finger pressed to his lips and often with roses, he also later became associated with secrets and silence, leading to the concept of 'sub rosa'. Here shown on the reverse of a rare bronze obol struck in 137 to 138 CE under Hadrian, in Alexandria, Egypt, wearing a pharaonic hemhem crown #AncientCoins#Egypt#Mythology
@taoish@medievodon@histodons I'm afraid it would be a one-sided process as I have no notes to share. I am aware of it, but that's all. I'd be very interested in reading more tho'. After I cracked that joke about Harpo, I found out that apparently there was a running joke that he was named after Harpocrates, as the mute member of the trio. It wasn't actually true, apparently. He was named for the harp he played
It goes without saying that what Hamas did was morally abhorrent, but every time you see a tower block in Gaza being destroyed by an Israeli missile on the news you are watching children being killed, injured, or made orphans. 😡
@Melinda@john1954moi I read a book in the late 70s.I have never been able to find it again. I believe it was written in the 40s. called something like "Night Music" and I think it was written by Lily Palmer?
Anyhow the story took place in Serbia? A young reporter comes on the job. He can't understand why they keep fighting this endless war. He ends up staying with a woman and her child. He becomes emotionally entangled and eventually realizes that they are also involved in fighting. 1/2
First - do you know about The Naked Scientist? (it is clean!!) The Space Boffins podcast is awesome. The October episode send talks about space burial and the Benu sample. It also has an interesting interview with Jean Wright who has a new #book .....
... called Sew Sister: The Untold Story of Jean Wright and #NASA 's Seamstresses by Elise Matich.
Short and sweet it is a picture book biography. According to the summary, it is a first in a series that will "explore the lives of figures who have been overlooked or overshadowed in their fields."
> MIT researchers found evidence that topology can stabilize magnetic ordering, even well above the point at which magnetism normally breaks down. Their work reveals how topological structures known as Weyl nodes found in an exotic semi-metal can significantly increase the working temperature for magnetic devices.
