It is. It refers to things being held in special regard in social arrangements, to an religious extent. The autism discourse, with all the memes and such, does more often than not include a cult-like adherence to beliefs around certain behaviours that anyone could display, shifting focus away from the developmental aspects of autism which are very much real and to diagnostic markers that are less than well defined but are used in clinical settings like: trouble at work/school/kindergarten [Y/N], and certain things the hiveminds of the world latch onto. There I think of people regarding dislike of the "big" light as being an indicator for autism(???).

I love how autism has become this fetishized thing that you slap onto all people operating outside of expected parameters.

Hong Kong has got to be pretty darn cool. Didn't know there was such a thing as a portable rice cooker. You learn something each day I guess haha

...Or maybe pedantry?

But now that I’ve said this, does it make you feel unsettled about it?

Considering that rice cookers are expensive where you are from, I suppose it is a sensible choice. I can't exactly say I'm unsettled. Let's suppose these devices being much cheaper relative to local salaries and there being plenty space for a rice cooker, then I'd be unsettled. But only if you are a regular consumer of rice, as I am ;)

Proably a cultural thing.

True. Some simply prefer plain-jane cooking or more steaming without the use of a dedicated cooker. A rice cooker though is "fire and forget", consistent and simple. Most people want that sort of clarity and in that sense I do believe in the rice cooker.

Aye, you get it

Interesting, where in Asia, if I may ask?

Fellow Debian user ricing my daily driver here. Other people may call me crazy too

that makes two of us!!

I’ve mostly come to terms with it by reminding myself that most people are either blissfully ignorant or too busy to care.

Active meta ignorance, making yourself be ignorant of the ignorance of others. Which is the same as ignorance but implemented as an abstraction :P

Have you considered making a sort of Honestly, I have not. I don't do much with sharing stuff on my GitHub since my programming stuff usually doesn't exceed a handful of scripts save for when making websites. install script or even just a public repository for your tweaks?

The whole idea of putting all the changes I made to my system is daunting since it's quite a lot even though it isn't that finicky at the smaller scales. I wouldn't know where to begin and I take it it takes a few weeks to get a basic structure going that feels comfortable. I'll try it though! Thank you for the good suggestion

I already know why that is. Perfectionism :)

And I know it's a darn problem lol

Let's say you make rice more than twice a week. Rice cookers can save a stupid amount of time. They're cheap, reliable and you can use them not just for rice, but also a bunch of other stuff. My advice, try one if you like rice.

Ricing Debian is as easy as on any other Distro. Most people I know are using Debian AND (Cinnamon/GNOME OR Xfce). Those are maybe a bit annoying to modify and make your. KDE however works like a charm and people think I'm using Arch because it looks unlike anything the way I'm using tiling.

Props though for getting people to switch, you're a real one.
