Hi I’m Tim.

I’m AuDHD - officially diagnosed ADHD and self-diagnosed (for now) with ASD. I also suffer from a great deal of Imposter Syndrome.

  • But why must they also allow bigotry if they allow people to express who they are? That is the biggest load of shit. So if I say “I have a husband of X years,” they must also allow someone to say a bunch of bigotry as a counter view?

    Or if I say I like open source software they must allow the trolls that want to call me a dirty hippie and tell me to get a job so I can pay for software? And I agree everything is political, and ignoring it doesn’t make it any less so.




  • Capitalism doesn’t reward shareholders for preparing for a downturn, the system demands profits must go up before any other considerations.

    And the companies themselves can’t be trusted to do the right thing, that’s why taxes should help pay for an oversight group to “keep them honest”. And when caught skirting regulation they should be fined accordingly, and increasing fines for repeated offences. And if they still can’t follow the rules shut them down and have them pay for it.






  • Ubuntu (and also Debian that it derives from) are always behind on the software release cycles and contain “stale” packages. This is desirable if you’re running a server, but if you’re wanting a modem day desktop experience a non-rolling release distro is just leaving performance/usability of your hardware on the table.

    Think of Ubuntu/Debian and all their derivatives as the Jitterbug of the phone industry. They work perfectly fine, but if you want a real phone you’re probably going to be happier with an iPhone or Android phone just because they make use of newer technology and get updates constantly.
