I'm wondering if the cause and effect are the other way around, people that have trouble with noise (such as people with APD) might want noise cancelling headphones. The rise in cases of APD might indicate otherwise, but with the information provided, it sounds like it might be under-diagnosed anyway.

The first thing many people used to assume is that if you had any problems with listening, you might be somewhat deaf. APD and other difficulties listening definitely aren't deafness, but I wonder if there is increased awareness of other reasons why someone might have difficulty understanding speech.

It's nice to see someone who used to be so deep into the Adobe ecosystem was finally able to switch over. I hear that it used to be considered practically impossible unless you weren't already in very deep. As a result, many people simply said they wouldn't consider Linux unless Adobe products supported Linux.

The fact that he's proven Adobe doesn't have a stranglehold anymore gives me hope that we'll be seeing more and more people migrating as software supporting Linux gets better.

Autism affects how senses are processed, and taste is a sense - some autistic people don't want things that are strong or that vary a lot, preferring consistency instead.

With that being said, it's not a universal thing, different people are affected differently.

While true, I would add that a big reason is that freight is prioritised by rail companies, causing large and frequent delays for passengers. Amtrak owns some of its own rail, mostly in the northeast, which is perhaps less-than-coincidentally the part of the US that has the most people taking trains.

I think people do think it should fail. Snap isn't bad, but when people run a command, they expect it to do as asked, or fail. The fact it does something else breaks that intuition, as it's doing what it thinks you will want instead.

With that being said, it's not a big deal.

Anecdotal, but I have had bad experiences using Ubuntu. I know it's not a bad distro, and that it contributes a lot (especially historically), but it's the other distros that take their contributions and add to it that I find worth using or recommending, or sometimes an unrelated distro. It's the sort of thing I might give money to, but I'll never want to use directly.

I think this is what people mean when they say it's bad - that distros that take what Ubuntu made and add their own touch seem more user friendly.

Admittedly this is where the meme kind of breaks down.

I forgot about that, oops.

Historically, yes, Ubuntu has put in the most effort into being the most user-friendly, most easy-to-use distro.

However, I would argue that is not really the case anymore because as other distros (especially Mint and Pop!) have arisen for a user-friendly experience, Canonical has gradually abandoned this over the past few years in favour of being more server focused. Most of the innovation for user-friendly design just isn't coming from Canonical anymore.

The biggest argument for Ubuntu for beginners is that there are more resources such as tutorials for it - mostly momentum.

BusyBox

I know most call it AEST, but there are some who call it EST.

I hear timezone names can also be a slight issue at times, some Australians call the eastern time zone EST. Leap years aren't so bad at times either though. Kind of agree with the rest of it, much of the complexity is from historical dates.
