  • Low IQ is a type of singling people out who are not what society wants people to be. A form of subtle eugenics, make the “dumb” people not be able to do things because a “test” says there IQ is low, for instance someone who speaks another language could mis understand the “test” and people think there idiots when in fact they just wasn’t good at English. This also goes for people who are absolutely horrible at English reading and comprehension of “tests” when they could be brilliant in other aspects of life.

    So remember there is no way to “test” how smart or dumb someone is.










  • It makes me want to understand and listen to them more because I know from my past that when people apologize to much it’s usually because a lot of trauma and bad people in there past, so instead of saying they should stop, I just simply respond to the apology positively, like “no problem” or " totally ok. No worries". Give them time to trust me and know that do it out of fear and repetition and it’s a reflex from there traumatic past.

    One of my main problems with Linux is the obsessive amount of text things have to learn or understand it, I have to sig around online for someone who doesn’t say rtfm because the manual is extremely long and it’s usually a pretty small easy problem. Or I find someone who has the problem and no response or a response that doesn’t work in the current version. It took me a couple of days to setup my home Linux entertainment system because of these reasons.

    Accessibility matters,it’s good to have proper documentation and it also good to make it accessible to everyone and not just the hardcore Linux people.

    One of the things I had problems with is with my laptop turning off my external display with the lid was closed, took me a couple of days to find it was in some text file in systemd instead of idk in the power settings?

    Linux is hard and it’s not user friendly. But better then Windows for me at least, mainly because Linux has more accessibility options now then windows.




  • My eol, tired, in constant pain, extremely bored. Been disabled fory whole life but government says *checks notes fold laundry and work at a phone switchboard, been battling for ss for 10 years. If my mom dies I’m pretty much fucked and homeless and I can barely handle anything now. Just want everything to be done with.
