Holy heck, I’d be highly aware of being somewhere on the autism/add spectrum. That would change everything even if I just knew that.

An example: I actually mined bitcoin when I was a kid, on 2x HD 6850s.

And… lost it, in the depths of some old partition with files everywhere :/. I didn’t take any of that seriously.

I’d have kept a bunch of friends too.
