Are intros a thing here 😅? Hi, I’m Leo (pronouns they/them/their)! I’m half Indian, nonbinary, etc. I don’t like writing bios 🤣. In the process of getting off the Meta apps, and hoping to find people here to connect with (my world is pretty small since covid)
I’m interested in connecting with other , , , , cautious folks!

Welcome, Leo! Great to meet you.

A couple of things I don't see mentioned in other replies: first, when discussing autistic stuff, you're free to @ the @actuallyautistic group, since you're autistic. Following that group will bring you instantly into contact with lots of other people.

Second, this brilliant site

https://fedi.tips/

is full of tips to get you up to speed quickly, including how to find good people.

Get stuck in, have fun, and don't be afraid to ask questions. 🙂

There can’t be more than a couple of thousand tons of satellites up there considering how expensive it is to launch stuff into orbit.

It’s negligible compared to the amount of space dust that enters the atmosphere and burns up every day.

Symfonium is great, it supports a bunch of sources and works really well. Absolutely worth supporting the dev (check his ko-fi too)!

i don't know that anybody reads on Inkitt, tech bros like this kind of thing because they want to sell to credulous investors not because they think they're going to get any readers

AFAICT, nobody reads serial fic in English anywhere except wanna-be writers, so while Inkitt sorta does seem like a pyramid scheme, the writers do know what the (lousy) deal is in advance & it's on them if they publish there anyway

Can anyone point to a good resource on how to be a better parent to an autistic adult?

I really feel like I'm swimming in circles and I'm not always sure I'm being the advocate and support that she needs me to be.

Any help from other parents of autistic adults is welcome. If you're not autistic or the parent of someone who is, please don't comment.

Thank you, and please boost for reach.

@Mrfunkedude Also, follow the hashtag for insights from autistic adults. But don't post under it, as it's for Autistic people.

@actuallyautistic is a good follow too, same rules.

That's good advice.

If you have questions, you can also post using the AskingAutistics hashtag.

FDA Approves First Medication to Help Reduce Allergic Reactions to Multiple Foods After Accidental Exposure

https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-approves-first-medication-help-reduce-allergic-reactions-multiple-foods-after-accidental

@news

Fondots ,

From the article

Xolair is intended for repeated use to reduce the risk of allergic reactions and is not approved for the immediate emergency treatment of allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis.

Epi Pens are for immediate emergency response for allergic reactions, they aren’t preventative in any way.

Epi Pens are basically just a shot of adrenaline, they don’t actually act directly on your immune system at all, it’s basically just sends an override message to your body to forget about whatever else it’s doing and focus on opening up your airways, pumping blood, or whatever else you might need in order to, for example, run from a lion.

Which buys you some time, but you’re still probably going to need some treatment or monitoring once the adrenaline wears off, and you’re probably going to feel like shit afterwards, and epinephrine isn’t without it’s own pretty significant risks and side effects.

Evilcoleslaw ,

Yeah OIT will slowly “train” your immune system to not react to increasing amounts of an allergen. This is literally a monoclonal antibody that binds to free IgE antibodies so that there will be fewer of them around if you’re exposed to an allergen.

It seems much more well suited for its originally approved uses of allergic asthma and nasal polyps (which are caused by recurrent allergic inflammatory processes involved in sinusitis/rhinitis) than it would be for food allergies.

Follow-up: OpenBSD routers on AliExpress mini PCs

I got lots of replies to the last post showing the little OpenBSD internet gateway setup (super interesting; thanks!). Here's more info and pictures:
https://www.srcbeat.com/2024/02/aliexpress-openbsd-router/

Something I've been meaning to share for years now.

Normally you use a separate AP to do that. BSDs don’t normally have good support for WiFi cards. Consumer WiFi cards aren’t really meant for use as APs anyway.

Another successful OpenBSD setup

I've been buying these little boxes from AliExpress for years to use as firewalls and routers. My oldest one is almost 9 years old now! OpenBSD installs just fine. Just a BIOS tweak to always boot up after power is restored.

@selfhosted

Ajen ,

Openwrt works great for gigabit networks with simple firewall rules and no IPS. But used 10-56gbps enterprise equipment is getting pretty cheap, and more complicated firewall configurations need more powerful hardware than the typical openwrt router.

And 56gbps on a home LAN might be overkill, but that’s not important.
