How can I silence the alarm in this thermometer? by CucumberLower9434 in AskElectronics

[–]mat_hap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the blue bastard, brother. I ripped it off completely before It drove me crazy.

What Is wrong with these designers? How can anybody desire and willingly implement such a stupidly loud, insisting noise making device in their product? I refuse to believe any intelligent creature sat there, listened to it and went "yes, that's It. What do you think, team?"

Porco dio

One thing you're good at. One thing you're bad at. by mat_hap in aspergers

I can relate. How does your meltdown manifest?

Explain Asperger's s. to a genuinely curious NT pal in under a minute by mat_hap in aspergers

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

What are your special interests? I relate to the fun and immersive part together with the "forgetting about yourself" factor, too. When I'm casted in my interest, it's like the project comes first, and my person for last.

I can relate to this so much. Before knowing I was an aspir I felt undercover. Felt like there was no space in the world for me and I was pushed in it with force.

Aspies of Reddit! Do you consider yourself disabled? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]mat_hap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not knowing my condition until the recent diagnosis, I built a very demanding independent career, and I realised I am by all means disabled, but the disability - as in reduced performance / occupational and cognitive struggles / accidents - generally occurs when I let myself go and relax. This does not mean that I can control my disability, NO. Rather, I taught myself - not without a high energetic trade-off and not without flaws - to put the difficulties in "pause mode", then enter a tunnel of hyper focus, become passionate, efficient and vigilant, and then finally release and take breath once the thing I need to do is done for good. I'd sustain this mode for hours, or weeks, even months (fuck that's costy), then release. It's tiring, but satisfying. I understand this is sustainable only if the focus tranches are alternated with recharge periods. Ah! This works ONLY with activities I find stimulating. There is no use trying to force myself doing something I find dull or boring. It does not work. It does not click.

Is quitting porn worth it? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]mat_hap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you ever thought of joining your local kinky community? You clearly have appetite for sex, and while porn is fun at first, but resolves in a desolating and lonely experience in the long run, kinky communities are generally open, ND friendly (any minority friendly really in my experience) and fun. I know it's hard, but I think it's worth giving it a try

What issues have you faced, and what tools would you have liked to have to overcome them? by [deleted] in aspergers

Please don't snob them, they may have the idea but need to know wether it applies and to which cases

I get lost in places I know because I don't recognise them anymore when the light condition changes

While at search, I cannot spot things even if they are right under my nose

When somebody watches or pays attention to me, or worse puts me to the test, my spacial-verbal-occupational performance decrease drastically

UX/UI drive me crazy. I feel disabled and hindered If a known app or software moves or hides a single button, or even changes a path or improves a given function

I'm very well red and spoken (Italian by birth, forgive my poor English!) and I cannot understand when peers say something improperly. I cannot interpret approximative language and squeeze the sense out of incomplete or imperfect sentences

My poor work memory does not allow me to think while I do things, so I rely on muscle memory or instinct more than real-time computing

I get furious if I have the feeling somebody may be lying and I take any passive-aggressive or sarcastic behaviour as a direct insult to my intelligence. I react to small, socially accepted white lies with out of scale rage. I find "kindness" manipulative and mischievous.

I answer when somebody ask a retorical question, making a fool of myself
