    Is objective truth theoretical or actual?

    Objective truth is supposed to be actual, and independent of human opinion. But many NT do not understand it, or are deceitful, and pretend that subjective opinions are objective truths. They cannot be trusted. For example, religious people pretend that mythology contained in religious books...

    How much self-directed education do you do? How do you do it?

    I have an incredible difficulty concentrating on the things I should be studying. I just can't take my attention out of the things I want to learn. This may seem contradictory, but at the same time I have great difficulty interacting with other people, but If I work on the same thing, NTs help...

    The opposite of obsession?

    Maybe it helps to think about "j" as a variable that contains "i"?

    I'm an expert at flirting because...

    I have read tons of flirting materials, and pick up handbooks. Once I was obsessed by that. It helped me a lot to enhance my social interactions, get a job, and keep it. But I never was able to do the real thing: pick up a girl. The reason is that I even can get a friend. Male or female. If I...

    I'm an expert at flirting because...

    No. That's useless advice. You may wait forever, and nobody will suddenly enter in your life from nowhere and cry "HELLO!! I'm a loving person who just entered your life to accept you as you are!" These kind of things only occur on Disney movies, where also all man are princes, and women fall...

    I'm an expert at flirting because...

    In practical terms: how do you know when a man loves you? Do you know if a man loves you? how can you know? Love is a feeling, and nobody knows how other people feels. They just can guess based on his own experience, and aspies are really troubled on this. I think that being loved means...

    An interesting question

    At present interest rates you would get like less than u$S 1000/ a month. But inflation would reduce that sum very fast. A million is not what it used to be. If you spend 5000 each month, you spend a million in less than 17 years.

    Are you addicted to the internet?

    I need it. My life would be boring without it. But it gives me some stress related to this: I believe that Internet haves some incredibly useful information that I should know, but I don't know how to find it. Frequently I check the same websites I checked minutes ago. They don't have...

    What software do you use on your computer?

    I will not mention commonly used software like 7-zip, gimp, or others already mentioned. I will try to make useful recommendations, or just show how helpless I are. Please, if you think that the software I use has a better replacement, tell me. WinDirStat is very helpful to find what files are...

    Trouble stabilizing video

    I have some footage that I recorded meanwhile walking. It is shaky, so I need to stabilize it. I tried vreveal, which stabilizes the video really fast (it used nvidia video cards as accelerator). But when I save the video, it is encoded with poor quality. It gets blocky and blurred. I also...

    The random advice thread

    If a car (or some metalic object) gives you frequently electric sparks caused by static electricity, and it hurts, use a key, -or another metallic material-, to touch the object before touching it with your hands. This way the electric shock will pass from metal to the key, instead of metal...

    Pease, help me to transcribe the English

    Great insight Rolo!. You are amazing. Thanks you. Now that I see it written, I understand the vocals. Before, it was senseless gibberish to me. I think that the bit saying "y-key 2000" is a reference to the 2K millenium bug. "see them a worry bout y-key 2000" may be "send them a worry...

    Aspergers and Lack of Morals?

    If she “lies” on his journal, she may be lying to you. It makes nonsense to lie on a journal, unless the writer expects for it to be read by someone. And if your daughter is so smart, se should know all you do with his journal. I would also freak out if I had been forced unto religion (I was to...

    New to the group (mom of 7 year old newly diagnosed boy with asperger) rant not sure?

    Re: New to the group (mom of 7 year old newly diagnosed boy with asperger) rant not s Zoloft may cause convulsions as lateral effect. I started having convulsions after I was medicated with Zoloft, and they remained for a long time (somewhat like a year) after I stopped taking it. I also...
