Same, also autistic. There are very few people I don’t dislike touching me.

It also depends where people touch me. Shake my hand: that’s okay; touching my head/hair, big no. Haircuts are super uncomfortable.

Reminds me of this comic, in Dutch but the translation is right below it (for all the dumbasses who can’t read Dutch)

If you're using the built in speakers on any device, you deserve the bad audio quality lol.

It’s possible to make good built in speakers. The MacBook Pros sound great, even the new iPads sound way better than you’d ever expect from such a thin device. My 13” M4 iPad Pro even has decent bass, it’s ridiculous.

Is it as good as a stand alone amplifier with two tower speakers? No, of course not. But I’m not bringing those along with me either.

Here (.nl) it’s a minimum of 3 years for the lowest ranking cops (vocational degree), depending on rank/function there is also a 4 year bachelors degree and a 5 year masters.

In a MAME machine maybe, but the original arcade cabinets all have custom hardware.

Yeah, the hardware in a console is mass produced, the hardware in an arcade cabinet is made in relatively small batches. Mass producing something is always a lot cheaper per unit due to economies of scale.

Motorcyclists are a major source of donor organs though. Due to the nature of the injuries one is most likely to suffer when in a motorcycle accident they often end up braindead. I’ve heard people who work in a hospital refer to motorcycles as ‘donorcycles’.

That works great until it doesn’t, and then you’re fucked.

But with those ‘user friendly’ UI’s no one knows what they’re doing. The user doesn’t know regardless and now the expert they ask for help has no clue either.

It isn't half bad but it does use a lot of terminology

That’s why it’s user friendly. Try configuring one of those “user friendly” consumer grade crap routers. Due to the use non-standard descriptions in a misguided effort to be user friendly no one actually has any clue what settings actually do.
