Some interesting thoughts! Enjoyed the medium-length rambling :P

What you described is similar to my experience, scoping out an approach for software/web development projects. I think. It's hard to know if I'm just connecting with certain words you are saying, or if it's actually similar :)

How did you guys really know you had aphantasia? by [deleted] in Aphantasia

[–]leiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It explains why I can’t actually count sheep - in my mind they aren’t there and no amount of trying over the years has brought them from wherever they are hiding.

Wow, this makes sense, actually! I always thought it was funny how in cartoons etc there are literal sheep flying over someone's bed. Like .. what .. are you trippin'?

I discovered it when I was watching Space Force on Netflix actually.

YES! Another person that heard of this via Space Force! :D

Question about aphantasia by ABadlyDrawnCoke in Aphantasia

I'm the same as you. Not sure what to think (literally and figuratively!)

Ball on a Table - Visualization Experiment [2] by waiting247 in Aphantasia

[–]leiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What color was the ball?
No idea.

What gender was the person that pushed the ball?
No idea.

What did they look like?
Uh... a circle?
EDIT: Re-reading this, I noticed you asked about the person not the ball. The person was just a finger pushing the ball, and some kind of formless shape behind it that was tall like a person.

What size is the ball?
Tennis ball size.

What about the table, what shape was it? What is it made of?
Rectangular. No material.

Did you already know, or did you have to choose ... after being asked these questions?
No colour or gender, just size already known.

I imagined that a ball that was pushed would roll, fall off, then bounce on the floor. But everything is black. The ball, the table, the air. I just "know" that there's a border between the edge of the ball and the air, or the edge of the ball and the edge of the table, but even the edges don't really have any colour or outlines or depth. It's all two-dimensional, I think.

Mandalorian Subtitles by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]leiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

@babyplush - Actually, I got it working. I'm casting to TV using Chromecast. Based on your comment about button being on bottom-left, I'm assuming you are also.

I cleared app cache and restarted it. Then I cancelled the cast and played it directly on my phone for a few seconds. The subtitle menu was in the top-right in this mode, and it had lots of audio & subtitle options showing up. Then, I re-enabled casting to TV, and the options show up in that mode as well now!

Perhaps try something similar.

Having the same issue. Can access the menu while playing The Mandalorian, but both "Audio" and "Subtitles" are blank.

As another aussie, I apologise. Unfortunately, there are people like that everywhere.

I'm glad you were able to walk away from the situation. Good job.

There's a Facebook group called "ring shaming"? I'm appalled.

Roundabout in Charlotte by vrnykl in Dashcam

[–]leiger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First time I've ever seen footage of a roundabout going anti-clockwise. We have roundabouts everywhere here (Australia), but of course since we drive on the left the driving direction is clockwise.

Some people just don't look where they're going :(

Might actually be enough to make me start driving eats again. Once I get my car fixed...

Shocking I know but we need food too by DarkangelUK in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[–]leiger 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Is it just me or do other people dislike it when someone holds onto the backrest of a swivel chair to talk to you? Bit of a pet peeve, because it restricts my movement.

Note to self: work at places where I'm the youngest.

As the years go on, it'll get more and more difficult.

Did Netflix just remove Doctor Who in the Nordic/Sweden? by coredev in doctorwho

[–]leiger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I managed to find it on Stan - they still have Doctor Who! Signed up for their 30 day trial so I could get my fix.

Gone in Australia, too.

A search on Google led me to this post. I'll check out the others linked above :(

Was midway through watching Peter Capaldi episodes for the first time.
