On both desktop and Android, I've been getting HTTPS errors that require two Refresh clicks before the actual page loads.

I agree, I'd cut off dual booting and go full Linux when the hardware and software I use supports it. One of which being a PCIe Elgato capture card, another being an audio mixer with no driver support and the alternatives are very hacky and too complicated for me.

Several reported having to be diverted, and I think in one case a flight that left JFK had to return to JFK while over the midwest: https://www.flightaware.com/live/flight/ASA31

Well, there's a theory the latter will happen, but you'd have to be around for possibly 10 million years to see it. https://www.wired.com/story/walker-lane-move-over-san-andrea...

It also didn't help that the Metric Conversion Act defined it as voluntary, and the U.S. Metric Board was essentially toothless from the start.

The funny part is that in elementary school here in the mid to late 90s, growing up in a rural area, metric was only touched upon for a day at most and until high school chemistry and physics classes, I very rarely had to deal with metric. Which sucked! My math classes kept to U.S. customary system / imperial units for example.

(It wasn't even told to me that it was the default for most of the world. It was disappointing to learn later how much resistance to metric there was in the U.S.)

To add to your point, a lot of apartment complexes still don't have the infrastructure to charge electric vehicles.

You are correct.

A huge majority of streamers rely on overlays provided by either the companies Streamlabs or StreamElements for things like displaying a chat on their stream, among others.

At first I was excited about hearing this, but there’s two big caveats to this:

1) Due to some odd wording in the terms of what’s permissible, your stream can’t be lower quality than what you send to other platforms. Because YouTube offers a higher ingestion bandwidth rate (10+ Mbps) than Twitch (6 Mbps), someone appealing to both services that wants to send the maximum bitrate allowed for quality purposes or even with differing resolutions can be hit due to the technicality:

> otherwise degrading, the video quality on Twitch so that it’s worse than on other platforms would make the user’s experience on Twitch less than other services and, therefore, not meet these guidelines.

2) A popular tool for streamers who aren’t bound by exclusivity (anyone not Affiliate/Partner before this came out) used Restream to both stream to multiple platforms as well as integrate a combined chatroom, for example mixing YouTube and Twitch chats, will have to stop doing so. This sucks for viewer interactivity and would be a net negative to smaller streamers:

> You do not use third-party services that combine activity from other platforms or services on your Twitch stream during your Simulcast, such as merging chat or other features, to ensure the Twitch community is included in the entirety of the experience of your livestream.

So, this feels more like a bait and switch to generate positive PR when a lot of the conversation toward Twitch has been negative the past year, and less of an omission of no longer being the top dog of gaming streaming.

It is definitely a general problem, and from personal experience I've gone through so many therapists this year it's not even funny. I've even had a therapist put me down, and for awhile I was wondering whether to off myself because I couldn't get good help.

Whether I'm in the DC area and looking or in the Bay Area and looking, and I feel like giving up on a search most days because nobody knows how to properly treat those of us who are on the autism spectrum.

(At least, I think. Maybe this isn't the updated one?)
