The human brain does a very poor job at understanding chance. A lot of games use seeded pseudo-randomness for this reason. They’ll even give the player a slightly better percentage than advertised and there will still be people calling foul.

Unfortunately, failing classes in public education is not at all common anymore. It requires a lot of documentation, meetings, calls, individualized curriculum adjustments, and a multitude of second chances. On top of that, administration is not a fan because it makes the school look bad in their eyes.
A lot of the teachers I worked with would vent their frustration that it was way too much work to fail a student or get them dropped from the program. Unfortunately, I was too busy figuring out how to update the curriculum from Windows 7, on machines built to run Windows 7, as well as just learning how to teach (my “training” was about half a day of sitting in on other classes), to fight that kind of battle. At some point, it’s a disservice to the rest of the class to spend that time and energy on the ones who are there to coast.
I tried my best. Hopefully everybody learned a few things. If nothing else, I certainly did.
The lack of etiquette is really frustrating. Had a tech student that was always putting in both earbuds as I was speaking. Had to walk over and wave my hand in front of the screen to get their attention.
When they graduated they said they were excited to get a job in the industry. Internally can’t help but think “with what knowledge or experience? You spent the entire class blocking it out.”
You’re seeing the wrong therapist. Look for one that practices cognitive behavioral therapy, it’s really helped me personally.
They waited 6 months to drop this knowledge bomb.
Spiritfarer, To the Moon, Gris (no words in this one but still a good story imo), anything SuperGiant has ever made with my favorite being Transistor.
Legend of Zelda?
Waited for time to pass and dust to settle to respond.
I appreciate this.
Understandably, I think people in mental health-focused communities are sensitive to feeling like their experience is being invalidated. Consequentially, sometimes i feel as though it is hard to speak a different opinion for fear of being labeled as someone who invalidates.
I’m not here for arguments. If differing opinions will result in that then maybe I will bite my tongue. You seem to have a good head on your shoulders based on this comment so I believe the community is headed in the right direction.
Radford, Rohani’s principal, wrote an email to parents and students that he was “deeply saddened to inform you of another tragic passing of one of our students.”
I’m sorry, another?
Thats very dismissive of you and does not fit this community well imo.
That’s not your place to decide.
pushing your assumptions on others is a dick move.
Don’t really know what assumptions I pushed here.
Telling people you feel your existence is denied because someone says “autistic people don’t have powers” is just not a good look. Calling names and picking fights with people who don’t agree with you isn’t either.
Unfortunately for you, I’m not leaving this community just because you want me to. I will be blocking you because I didn’t come here to be called a dismissive dick. I suggest you do the same.
Have a nice day.
I’m considered gifted as well and I would never compare it to having “powers”. I’m just good at taking IQ tests. That’s not what I’d call a power.
Ah, the old Lemmy cannibaloo.
It’s playable but it struggles to maintain 60fps on the lowest settings, I even modded out the environments with a potato mod. So if you don’t need things to be pretty it still is functional, but you can feel the frames dip fairly frequently.
SF6 runs pretty poorly on the Steam Deck so I don’t know why they would want to highlight that, lol. Pretty much had to turn everything to full ugly mode.
BIL got the Slay the Spire board game the other day. We played Act 1, hoping to beat Act 2 at some point this weekend. Pretty enjoyable playing the game in a cooperative fashion.

This transcends crime. It’s entirely lawless. It’s food anarchy.
It is so weird seeing that story come back around again. The first time I heard it was something like 15 years ago and it was nonsense then, too. Now conservatives flaunt it like it’s some kind of new bombshell. Nope, just as fake now as it was then.
Enbies? Although the base of the term does come back around to the original phrase.
