Deficit or difference 🧵
Autistic deficit no.10:
Not automatically prioritising appearances.
In the “negative or nothing” model of autism, this is framed as poor social awareness, rather than ...
@nprofile1q...
In other words, autistic people consider it important to present themselves honestly?
I mean, that is indisputably a virtue. Anybody trying to frame that as “poor social awareness” is just telling on themselves.

One interesting tidbit about the computer in #StarTrekTOS is that it doesn't seem to keep everything in built-in storage.
Instead, everything is stored on microtape, a colorful little tile with about the proportions of a 3½ floppy disk, that the user has to insert by hand as needed.
Contrast #StarTrekTNG, where storage is on chips that are generally left inserted in slots behind a maintenance panel, somewhat like PCIe SSDs.

They were proclaiming the impending extinction of the power user when Windows 95 came out.
It wasn't true then. It isn't true now.
And yeah, there were people back then too, who considered an error message as either a betrayal or undecipherable gibberish from another planet.
“Nothing new under the sun,” as the saying goes.

Your liver and kidneys don't work very well if there's not enough salt and/or water in you, so… 🤷♂️

They were doing that before social media existed. TV, radio, tabloids, mailers, religious leaders, and gossip have all misled people en masse at one time or another.
Banning social media to stop misinformation is like banning parties to stop procreation. It'll fail, and it'll cause nothing but misery and cultural destruction in the process of failing.

Parents these days: “Chat is rotting my baby's brain! Ban everything!”
Also parents these days: gives said baby an unlocked phone
I'm not worried about the kids. They'll manage. They always do. It's the adults I'm worried about.

Social media age verification is not like requiring ID to buy tobacco.
It's like requiring anyone who makes anything you put in your mouth to, at their expense, install and monitor CCTV cameras in your home to make sure no children ever put anything in their mouths.
Not just cigarettes, but also juices and cheeseburgers. Cookouts are now illegal. So, ironically, are kids' lemonade stands.
Also, only two companies are certified to monitor the cameras, and one of them is owned by Philip Morris.
