Yeah, I like DITMM but my partner and I keep an eye on each other, so if I take my meds and mark it off in Telegram they can see it immediately and that log is permenant, rather than being stuck on one device and only for me. Still, handy if you don’t have a helping hand like I do.

I have a large cardboard box with arduinos, raspberry pis, and various other electronics. Will they ever get used? If they stay in the box definitely no, but I don’t have a good system for getting them out while not having them just become clutter. That said, Ritalin helps a lot, so maybe with a good sleep and some good meds on board I have a chance.

A truck driver in Australia has to have a higher grade license than a car license. In IT I had a bunch of certifications and so on but that never changed my earning potential much. I think the lack of a university degree was the big thing, but in truck driving that won’t be an issue.

I’m 17 years without alcohol, 16 without “le drugs”, and 15 without smoking. I still have issues in my life and challenges to solve but wow, all of those would be harder and more numerous if I still behaved like I used to. I had a fairly short period of massive excess and had a few lucky moments of clarity which resulted in me quitting it all one after another. My partner and I have been together since just after I quit drinking and I am really glad they never had to see me being my worst self.

My biggest takeaway is it really does get easier with time. The hardest times were within a short time of quitting. The longer I sustained the more ingrained the change became and now I would be stubborn and resist any sort of backslide.

Oh of course, I just find that having some weird needs gas made me seek weird solutions and I like to share them around. I definitely didn’t get anything malicious from your post? Not sure if my tone came across poorly, I was going for a cheerful and helpful response, not any sort of critical or nasty, sorry if I sounded harsh or anything like that, definitely not my intention.

A simple but honestly kinda brute force way around it is to replace the TTF or equivalent font file for their font with a copy of Comic Sans on your system. It will show as Comic Sans on your system but will actually be Arial or Times New Roman or whatever in the document, so it will be what they expect on the other end.

That said, it is a simple accomidation, it should be manageable for them.

I am glad this trend is becoming better understood. A more diverse audience means more diverse stories being told, and while another MCU or Street Fighter is a perfectly good game to release a game targeting that more diverse audience will give more options for me. I typically play games like Risk of Rain, Skyrim, Creeper World, and so on, but I have also lost many hours to Viva Piñata, so I would love to see some more diversity in the games on offer.
