1973 #Ethernet as one of the defining information technologies in modern communication was developed at #PARC by Chuck Thackers for #Alto#Computer s. What Bob Metcalf, Butler Lampson, and Dave Boggs built for the #ARPAnet is connecting us all today— via the #Internet, & @fediverse.
You are conflating layer 1 technologies (shielded or unshielded twisted pair, CAT3 through CAT7) with layer 2 technologies (Ethernet).
Layer one is the physical media itself. Alternatively some modern-day L1s are MoCA, Powerline, WiFi, fiber, and of course, 1000BaseT, whose standard specifies CAT5e or higher STP.
Layer two is how those bits get sent in that media. Ethernet is, by and far, the most familiar L2.
And then layer three is where we get to networking and start talking about IP addresses (IP being the most familiar L3).
"Nah, I don't stim!"
"Is THIS stimming?"
"I stim, therefore I am"
-from "Initiation Rites for the Late-Identified #ActuallyAutistic "-
I really thought I don't stim. I don't rock or flap my hands or jump or chew things or make stimmy sounds.
Of course, I do softly grind my teeth (sometimes I may wear night guard during daytime too), wiggle my toes or legs, enjoy knitting simple patterns (= the same repetitive motion), fidget like there's no tomorrow with any small object I can get my hands on and may start picking my nails if I can't find anything else, doodle, I might undo my hair and braid it while watching TV, or braid tassels of my throw blanket...
Stimming is healthy and good for you. Do it.
If -as is the case with many late-identified autists- you have suppressed your stims or been pressured to stop and feel like you have forgotten how to stim, then try to start again. Learn about different stims and just try different ones until you find something that does the trick for you.
@ReimanSaara@btaroli@actuallyautistic it can also be in allistic society’s interests to minimise or dismiss the effects or visibility of autistic being. There is emotional, mental, cultural and literal cost to them in accepting us and adapting to us.
@joewynne Morn's master plan in action. Fake your own death to get your loose cannon theft partners out of the way, and then make off with the latinum yourself.
@antiquidons Hipparchos concluded that the star Spica, part of the constellation #Virgo, had moved 2° relative to the #AutumnalEquinox.
When he compared the time it took the Sun to return to an #equinox with the time it took the Sun to return to a fixed star, he found a slight discrepancy. The equinoxes were moving ("precessing") through the zodiac, and that the rate of precession was at least 1° in a century. In other words: a full cycle through the zodiac is completed every 36,000 years.
@antiquidons#Astronomy and calendars are the domain of #Hermes. His grandfather Atlas turns the heavenly constellations and his mother Maia is one of the starry Pleiades.
Atlas instructed him in astronomy and the Greek mythographer Euhemeros says that #Aphrodite first established the constellations and taught Hermes. The planet #Mercury is attributed to Hermes because he first established the months and perceived the courses of the constellations.

»Aufschlussreicher wäre, wer ein Interesse an diesem Durchstechen von Schulzes Mängelliste [an die Buchpreis-Jury] hatte? Wem sollte genützt, geschadet oder worauf aufmerksam gemacht werden? Sollte der Jury bedeutet werden, sie solle doch bitte ihre Arbeit besser machen?«
Ja, puh, schwierige Fragen das, ich kann mir auch nicht vorstellen, wie ich als Juror*in den Roman betrachten und bewerten würde, wenn mir eine Mängelliste dazu geliefert würde. #Gneuß
der Vorwurf, dass »vielleicht nicht gewissenhaft nachrecherchiert wurde« (tgsp) ist ein Witz, wenn man bedenkt, dass 8 von 10 Literatur-Journalist*innen die Bücher, die sie rezensieren, nicht gelesen haben.
Es ist insofern ein Hohn, als, wenn man gewissenhaft recherchiert und dann dafür gelobt wird (jaja, ich spreche von mir), dieses Lob auch immer ein Gschmäckle hat, von wegen: hat sich Mühe gegeben, Fleißarbeit usw
Just name if Final Fantasy 7 - Remake part 1/2/whatever… or something.
I’m not gonna buy this shit cause the prices are fucking stupid, but it’d still be nice to be able to keep track of this shit in a way that makes sense to human brains.
I know what ableism is & educate true ableism. I also know the damage to the community that the 'ableist police Karens' do
Here I sit in a motorized wheelchair, hooked up to a feeding tube pump, with a pump in my abdomen & cath in my spinal column that delivers medication to my brain and an anti-ableist 'police' Karen came at me in a DM over a gun violence boost
When I wouldn't engage, it abused two of my HashtagGames tags with a lecture & a 'take a look at yourself' with a misquote
2/2
Just to be clear, I don't send my followers after anyone. Many of my followers are people that live with invisible disabilities and mental health challenges and they're tired of the inequality within the disabled community as well. They categorize it as Ableism just as I do. It's their prerogative to challenge what they see as Ableism and I have no control over that. People with MI challenges are not criminals or abusers. Criminals or abusers come from all walks of life, backgrounds and health circumstances.
The claim that I attacked both hashtags saying "take a look inside" was not directed at this individual but, the original poster and everyone else who feels it's okay to make derogatory comments about people with invisible disabilities and mental health challenges. Someone has definitely misinterpreted but, it wasn't me. The post reference about "take a look inside", is linked to the post above.
Regarding health issues: I'm not very far behind the description of the health issues noted in this post. I have two brain injuries, a spine injury, multiple orthopedic disabilities, autism, fibromyalgia, and a host of other disabilities. Apparently secret posts of misinformation has resulted in "cancel culture". As long as these things continue, right wing fascists will continue to be victorious.
@OutOfExile_IDR_Voice@paul@disability@disabilityjustice@MadMovementMastodon I read it as an adjective rather than a noun: referring to a person who is simultaneously a criminal and mentally ill and a drug addict and a wife abuser. It reads to me like it's meant to be a list of risk factors for violence.
Who has what disabilities is irrelevant.
The ableist part is using mental illness as shorthand for predisposed to violence.
10 years ago, teacher Twitter was extremely helpful to me. There's the #teaching hashtag here, which is nice, but are most people still on X? Or worse, Facebook?
Trying to build that side of my timeline back up. Boots appreciated along with recommendations of who to follow.
@brianb@NewScience101@edutooters Facebook has some amazing groups relevant to science, etc. they are more focused. Are you a #tcea member? We have free membership drive in October and that would give you access to TCEA Community which has over 80k educators via Mobilize.io community. Learn more at https://tcea.org
Since I am planning to delete my Twitter account soon, I am slowly deleting every post I made manually, so I can see what I posted (I also do not trust that they will delete the posts if I delete the account). A large portion of my replies are congratulating people on things like their newly published paper, graduating, getting a grant, etc. These kind of posts are what I miss about Twitter, and I hope more people come and post their successes on Mastodon. #AcademicChatter
@DrEvanGowan
What do you think is the best way to encourage more academics to switch?
I don't know the answer, nor do I think people should be actively persuaded. Maybe just creating an inviting alternative environment on Mastodon is enough, but the risk there is you never reach a network effect / gravitational pull. #academicchatter#mastodon#twitter @yetiinabox@academicchatter
Live tooting from conferences, celebrating publications, circulating calls, putting out the word on jobs...all the stuff we used to do over there! And also, the more difficult bits - calling out abusive profs happened in significant part on Twitter, as did the formation of alternative informal networks.
