  • Also autistic and did this for a few years. For a basic dude-cut, you can use buzz everything however short you want, then every few weeks after buzz the sides and back but let the top grow until it looks like it’s time to buzz your whole head again or you decide to let it keep growing back out for a bit. Pretty easy and low maintenance. Takes practice and follow the other person’s advice to shower and go back over your head to make sure you get everything, it’s harder than it seems like it should be. And you’ll need someone to help get your neckline at some point.

    This cut might start out a lot shorter than you had in mind when you asked the question, or maybe not. When it comes to wielding scissors, that’s not something I can really attack my hair with, so I don’t have ideas that would be helpful in that regard.


  • I think you’re doing it exactly right. The three things I try to remember: 1) Do what you can, 2) When you can, 3) For as long as you can.

    Some stuff is out of my wheelhouse, it’s not something I can not or will not do. Sometimes I have other obligations I need to keep in order to honor commitments I’ve made or help those in my circle that need it. And sometimes, I need to rest so I can be my best for those other stages. All of that is OK. Do what you can, when you can, as long as you can. Exceeding those boundaries is a recipe for trouble. Others will help plug holes once they see something is already happening and your community support system will self-reinforce and grow over time.






  • For me, I’m Team Proxmox. It’s just easy to spin up containers for pretty much anything I need. No need for the resource overhead of a full-on virtual machine if I simply need to run a LAMP app. Anything you really have an issue transitioning from Docker to LXC can still be run inside a container with Docker installed. And if you need to set up a VM for Windows or pfSense or some other OS for whatever reason, it’s insanely easy to do.






  • Looks like it has an inertial sensor to control the view, here’s there relevant bit from the article:

    The parts he purchased online include two displays that max out at 2880×1440p and 90 Hz refresh rate, two lenses, an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensor, and an Arduino microcontroller board. The other parts of the headset were 3D-printed.

    The headset features individually adjustable IPD, interchangeable faceplates, and head tracking. But it does have downsides — at full resolution, it only runs at 60 Hz. Also, it only has three degrees of freedom (3DoF), which means it tracks looking up and down, left and right, and tilting the head left and right. He explained he didn’t bother equipping it with 6DoF as 3DoF was enough for his sim racing.
