Unfortunately I can't use the app for my public transport ticket because it doesn't support .pkpass files.

Most autistic people struggle with sensoric overload due to a decreased ability to filter stimuli. In my case there are almost no special triggers but the multitude of stimuli, foremost accoustic ones, followed by visual ones, followed by haptic ones. For me it is very important to minimize them by using ANC, a basecap and/or sunglasses as well as large and soft clothes

Apart from that he most important thing is to recognize when I'm starting to melt down and then to grant myself a timeout as soon as possible. Therefore I had to learn what helps me to relax the most. Being in a room with only a little light and sound, read a book, play a game, watch my favourite TV series ... If in the office or the public I sometimes retreat to the toilet, which is embarassing to admit but kind of helps.

Thx for pointing out and enjoy.

Yeah, sure looks like a fork of FairMail and that GUI was always irritating me. I'll stick with K9.

Ganz schöne Spanne. Kommt das für dich in Frage?

Moin,

ich hatte zur Zeit meiner Diagnose, also vor 10! Jahren, das Glück, dass die Warteliste der Autismusambulanz der Charité geöffnet war. Allerdings ist diese im Moment auch geschlossen.

Es gibt darüber hinaus auch Ärzte, die eine Diagnose anbieten. Allerdings, so mein Kenntnisstand, muss man das dann selbst bezahlen.

I got nothing to add to the comments already written but wanted to say "thanks for sharing", 'cause I'm in this mood now for weeks. It's like I'm waiting for something to happen without knowing what this something is. Luckily I'm going on holidays a few weeks from now. So: Thank you for sharing.

Though they are double the price you mentioned as a limit, I want to recommend the ones I'm using for other people in need of really good NC headphones coming to this thread.

I got myself refurbished Bose Quiet Comfort 45 and in my opinion they are perfect. I use them to blend out noise in public transport, museums, shopping malls, the office and so on. I can wear them for hours without my ears hurting or the battery running out. They really improved my quality of life.

Nah, I'm using it for work, to write proposals and documentation - that's all. And I always include a "written with AI" disclaimer.

• "The Neverending Story" by Michael Ende as a kid
• "The Lord of the Rings" by J.R.R. Tolkien as a teen
• "The Realm of the Elderlings" by Robin Hobb
• "The Ea Cycle" by David Zindell
• "The Manifold Trilogy" by Stephen Baxter

These books' worlds absorbed me so completely in the most positive way!

Though I must admit I'm a fan of rereading anyway. Don't know how many unknown books I skipped for a reread of know ones. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Exactly what I did yesterday and it felt so good.

Actually it was my (former) partner, not me, who suggested it.

I'm both, in my job I'm mainly no. 2, while in my private life I'm a pain in the ass with mainly no. 1.

Well, it's earbuds again: https://shop.fairphone.com/de/fairbuds How disappointing.

I was hoping for the tablet too (while eyeing the Shiftbook).

I am stuck in Xenoblade Chronicles III, I guess because it seems darker than I and II.

What I am constantly playing right now is Legend of Heros: Trails from Zero.

I am also looking forward to Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heros, though it might not be day one for me.

And I am looking into some Gamecube games again, mainly Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, Tales of Symphonia, and Twilight Princess (my favorite LoZ game right after BotW).

Also opting in for Voyager. I swear, I can feel my pulse drop as soon as the Intro starts.

Depends on the OS you're using. Most custom ROMs based on LineageOS have this kind of setting: Settings > Privacy > Trust > SMS message limit.

First, I love characters that are regularly puzzled by human beings / being human:
Spock
Data
Odo
The Doctor
Seven of Nine
Saru

Second, I love strong female characters:
Katherine Pulaski
Kira Nerys
Kathryn Janeway!!!
SNW Uhura
SNW Chapel

Third, I love queer characters:
Guinan
Garak
Jadzia Dax
Adira and Gray

I might have forgotten an awfull lot of equally amiable characters, which doesn't mean that I don't love them.
