  • You sound like me. I’m diagnosed autistic (mildly), I’m a software engineer, I’m introverted, I’m definitely liberal leaning, and…I live in Oregon.

    For now, I love it here (except Portland proper). So many great restaurants, bars, breweries, wineries, and a crap ton of trails and other parks and sights and sounds.

    I live semi-rural and half the businesses here have pride flags and BLM signage. I’m non-white, but don’t feel unsafe walking around where I am at night. My tech contract jobs are remote and I make more than enough to live comfortably.

    It rains a lot here… though less so these days it seems. It’s weird how many 100+ degree days we get now, but it’s still a lot less than other people I know.

    I’m rambling. If you want to know more, just ask.












  • I put electrical tape over all of them. They’re unnecessary, they’re annoying.

    I tried my best to build a new computer without any LEDs and I couldn’t. So now I just keep a piece of cardboard in front of my glass case side so I don’t have to look at that bullshit.

    Yeah, yeah, it probably causes it to run hotter. I’ll take a little more heat, less performance, and possibly shorter overall component life over having to deal with those stupid lights.
