I’m German myself but since I am a programmer I like the US-Keyboard more than the German one. The easy fix for me was using US-intl-nodeadkeys so I can use the right alt key to type those stupid German umlauts. This should work at least for most (Western-)European languages.

Funny how culture shapes perception. As a German that sentence didn’t even strike me as overly long.

The only thing that surprises me is that anyone is surprised by this. If you buy a physical book from anywhere, you own it. If you “buy” the rigth to play a movie (or read a book) from amazon, you own nothing. Usually they don’t show that so clearly but that’s the reality.

I’m sad to admit it but those are not mutaly exclusive.

I just started therapy. Formally it is not autism specific but I chose a therapist who has experience with other autistic addults. Can’t tell you much yet because it was just two meetings. Mostly she asked a lot of questions. But she seems really nice and competent so I am hopeful.

I don’t exactly understand what is remarkable here. But maybe that is because I’m not from the USA.

I recently found out that it’s not common to always buy the same brand of generic food types like apple juice, fish fingers, cereal,…

I have never owned or operated a car and this doesn’t really make me want to.
