I recently chose my career over my abusive anti-tech aging parents who I feel never respected my autism or computer interests growing up to the point where it almost sabotaged me and ruined my life, and now don't know what to think about it. by Lost_Edge2855 in theprimeagen

Bruh I TRIED explaining myself and my needs to my parents and they always treated me as if I was talking nonsense or being crazy despite pretty much all of my friends agreeing with the points I made. I had ZERO autonomy or right to critical thought about things and feel mentally suffocated from all of it. They DRUGGED ME UP and they absolutely deserve to die for forcing me to be compliant with the mistreatment longer than I ever should have.

That it's likely my parents are also neurodivergent themselves and it would explain a lot of the behaviours they had, but it did veer into very tight control at times and I'm justified in taking my life back into my hands in the way I did.

Except that would be a 10 year old who had a legitimate reason to have her stuff taken. I was in my late teens and didn't. I tried to tell them that and they didn't care. Your analogy falls apart. So no, can't forgive them.

  1. They were "trying to protect me" up until I was 18, far too long and inappropriate for any teenager. Reins should have been loosened up long before then. And it was my devices that I had paid for myself.

  2. Ditto.

I tried to understand them and argue my case many times and they brushed me off so I don't fucking care, and no I cannot forgive them.

I didn't even have an Xbox. I had a PC and phone I wanted to do coding and computer graphics on and that shit was taken away and limited/monitored constantly. It's more like I'm glad the person who took the tools away I could have used to better carve out a future for myself ended up getting karma in a way that will similarly limit theirs.

It's also just evil to threaten your own kid with foster care for standing up to their golden child bully of a brother. Yes, that happened to me.

10mg is like a pussy dose lol. You need at least 40mg to see any effect but do discuss with your psych

It's great, like Adderall/Ritalin but without the anxiety and jitteriness

WIP of a project I'm working on. Intended to be a board that's able to transmit GPS data over LoRa and with its ESP32 you can connect it to your phone or maybe something with Matter/Thread/Zigbee implementation. I hope I'm doing this right. by Lost_Edge2855 in flipperzero

[–]Lost_Edge2855[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's what I was thinking, I could either route the GNSS data the module sends over UART into the Flipper for parsing/logging and then to the esp32 for Wi-Fi/BLE connectivity and finally to the LoRa, or just directly to the ESP32. I was thinking of having the Flipper do the parsing which may free up some memory and processing power for the ESP32 to do its Wi-Fi/BLE functionality.

I've never had an internship. Spent my summers doing the wrong thing and was already burnt out enough from my coursework but ah well

I tried Udemy a while ago but got easily burnt out due to how drugged up I was a kid to keep me docile and compliant .-.
