  • "Enshittification" has lost all meaning.

    Jump

  • I think the concept can legitimately extend beyond just online platforms. Not saying it isn't misused, but I think some of your examples can sometimes be the same basic problem:

    Like a movie IP being acquired by a studio which forces the writers and directors to make changes in the sequel, to reach a bigger market or push merchandising or something.

    Or a game production company forcing game developers to add micro-transactions.

    Or new management from private equity forcing a reputable manufacturing company to use lower quality materials and defund QC.

    I would broadly describe any situation where an intermediary business between creator and consumer makes things worse for both is enshittification. Online platforms are far from the only culprit.

    • Poor speech articulation
    • Poor language understanding or usage
    • Problems maintaining attention in school or home
    • Problems with learning and remembering new information
    • Rigid, inflexible problem-solving abilities
    • Delayed general intellectual abilities
    • Learning problems in school (reading, language, math, writing)
    • Problems controlling behavior (e.g., aggressive, impulsive)

    The study specifically identifies atmospheric lead from additives in gasoline as a substantial source. Which makes sense since the highest incidences coincide with peak leaded gas usage.

  • Wait, you're telling me that the Six Million Dollar Man/Bigfoot thing wasn't just made up for Venture Bros? Bigfoot was canonically in that show?

  • Look, logistics and trade agreements are incredibly important and influential , nobody's arguing that. The problem is that they're really boring.

  • ADHD is having difficulty focusing.

    Isn't it more having difficulty focusing for extended periods?

    I'd say the phenomenon is more hyperfocusing long enough to figure out the point, and then getting frustrated as the speaker takes a long time to illustrate that point.

  • How many times does one have to understand, listen patiently anyway, and be proven correct 5 minutes later before it stops being an assumption?

  • This is why I leave my car unlocked and just don't keep anything valuable in there. I'd rather some prospective thief just open the door, find nothing but some change and a couple pens, and go on with their day instead of having to replace a broken window.

  • Did they identify the source as drones? It says unknown projectiles, so Anonymous Intercepting Devices. AIDs, if you will.

  • What kind of car do you drive, and what kind do you wish you did?

  • Drive: Gen 2 Toyota Tacoma

    Wish I drove: Toyota Hilux Champ EV

    Unfortunately the Champ doesn't come as an EV, and even if it did you can't get them in the US.

  • Locks keep out opportunists, people who go down the street jiggling handles to try to find an open door. Locks do nothing to keep a motivated person out if they want to get into your stuff specifically.

  • Once again posting this chart because when you realize which age group has the most enthusiastic Trump supporters, and you recognize the correlation between their behavior habits and the neuropsychological symptoms of lead poisoning during childhood development, everything starts to make way more sense.

  • You misunderstood, this wasn't an analogy. The secret to enrichment is literally putting raw hamburger in a pumpkin and rolling it around your home.

  • Anyone notice how all (well intentioned) advice for autistic people is just "mask harder"?

    Jump

  • I basically made masking a hyperfixation for a while, until I had a good enough grasp of NT social interaction that I could drop the mask more and more. Then I just came across as cool, confident, and interesting when I was doing my own thing. It's kind of a "Learn the rules so you can break them" situation. NT conventions aren't really all that complicated if you devote a bit of time to study. If you can steer your fixations at all, it's worth the investment so you can get on with your life with fewer interruptions.

  • I generally have more than 16 hours of energy in the day, so I actually did this for a while in college when I worked at a 24 hour job:

    Monday: 2am - 10pm - morning shift and midday classes

    Tuesday: 6am - 2am - morning shift and afternoon classes

    Wednesday: 10am - 6am -midday classes and evening shift

    ThursEve: 2pm - 10am - afternoon classes and overnight shift

    FriNight: 6pm - 2pm - partying, morning shift, and errands

    SaturSun: 10pm - 6pm - partying and miscellaneous

    Usually I had to fudge it a little bit to fit my exact class/work schedule, but it was honestly kinda dope. Less time struggling to fall asleep, 8 extra hours in the week, plenty of energy to party all night. If I could finagle my work schedule like that again, I'd probably go back to it.

  • I was terrified when I moved out, I thought I would never find a steady job or figure out normal adult stuff, and I'd be homeless in a few months.

    You might stop being a minor overnight, but you don't become an adult overnight. It's a gradual process and honestly you barely notice.
