| I don't know... But I can tell you instead why I think rc.d is the best Unix init system and how it is superior to sysvinit or that of systemd I kind of find systemd okay, I just rolled with it, but then I wasn't in deep enough for it to make a big difference to my usage. A few years ago I realized... |

Hazel
explained by grok: "Green and brown eyes are often called hazel. Hazel eyes typically feature a mix of green, brown, and sometimes gold or amber hues, creating a multicolored appearance that can shift depending on lighting." |

| I would never recommend someone to get a child. Children are not that great as people say. You have to decide for yourself .. you have to consider your struggle .. if you are sensitive to noise, you have to consider that you cannot run away when the child screams like hell .. and it will scream.

| I’m not sure how it is in your country, but in mine, the diagnosis of Asperger’s Syndrome has been replaced with Autism Spectrum Disorder. For me this change is challenging because saying I had Asperger’s was straightforward and clear. Now I have to say that I'm on the spectrum and I have to explain... |

| As a first reaction I would say buy a house. It's cool that you can do whatever you want on your property and in your house. But if I think about it, I would say it's better to rent a house. Cons of ownership: - you can't move - you can loose everything because of a natural disaster (e.g. flood, tor... |

| I get intensely interested in a subject for a while then it gets replaced by another interest. Always been like that. It's sort of annoying because of I could sustain that level of interest in one subject for longer I could've been an expert in something and that might have led to a decent career. ... |

| When you get older, you don't care as much as now. I moved a lot and I am living very much isolated. I do have a girlfriend but it's long distance. I like it that way. The interesting thing about shameful social happenings is, that the other people forget about it very quickly. I once asked somebody... |

I think if we didn't get the idea from the media and other people, that being alone is a bad thing, we wouldn't even consider it as bad  |

| I took a closer look at Hiki in the Google Play store. There were several unfavorable reviews over the priciness. I get that autistic people want a good smartphone experience. I don't like how Hiki is mobile-app *only* - no website access via a desktop (my preferred way). I like having both options... |

Unfortunately I have to buy groceries 2 to 3 times a week and I hate it. Screaming kids and parents who don't care. I'm always totally exhausted when I ge... |

When I need the number from somebody, I register on facebook and delete my account after getting the number from him/her 
I see no other use of facebook, than to find people by name.
I'm new here and also new to hiki App. Both was recommended by Grok.
So far I like it  |
