Once again thinking of new things to plug into the raspberry pi. Also interested in the idea of using an ESP32 to make a network wide ad blocker. Possibly with an arm processor but I'd like to keep the part count as low as possible.

Raspberry pi= tiny single board computer, ESP32= tiny wifi chip, ARM processor= low power computer brain

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yea, but I think they more meant "why are you commenting that here?" on a meme.

[–] retrolasered@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 months ago

Yes that is right. I love raspberry pi and im wearing a esp32 wristwatch. But how did this get bought up?

If he joined the side of autism on the side of autism, I'd be joining the side against autism, as someone with autism.

Fuckin' right? Like everyone is entitled to their opinion on their existence or whatever you want to call it. As someone with autism I am baffled by people who are against figuring out the mechanism and how to potentially prevent it.

I don't even have an issue with the way I think or act on its own. However, it's fundamentally at odds with how the majority of society works. Sure in an ideal world everyone would be understanding and accepting, but that's not how people usually work. I wish every day that I could just go on vibes like everyone else and not notice all the weird inconsistent bull shit people do and say, but I can't. Even though I completely understand what's going on, that doesn't make it any less like someone is grinding a manual transmission in my head.
