Right now I use a pixel phone running graphene OS. Given that Google is about to kill side loading though I’d recommend waiting a bit, there’s a rumour that fairphone is working on something with graphene as well.

It’s fine to care about privacy but not citing a source will usually lead to people doubting the content. This is also why most people here discuss the form instead of the content because they don’t even know how truthful it is.

The article does quote a study but doesn’t cite the source so we can’t even be certain the study that has been mentioned in the comments is the one the article is about.

I understand that you were excited about the discovery and wanted to share it and it hurts that people don’t share your excitement but criticise the form of your post. This is why I’m trying to explain why people reacted that way.

It would have made everything easier if you had simply noted from which newspaper you took the picture.

Just because an article gives a summary of a scientific study doesn’t mean that it’s believable. Cherry picking is a thing, especially in today’s political climate. So knowing which newspaper published (and probably paid the person making) the summary helps a lot to judge its quality.

Yes, I do know that but nothing like that can be taken from the article which only vaguely refers to a scientific paper without identifying it.

Correlation doesn’t mean causation.

I went ahead and exchanged our complete set of cutlery with one that I like and got a 12 person set. We are two people in this household. Nobody ever has to use the weird spoon.

Delayed processing is not exactly uncommon in autistic people. My husband knows not to repeat himself immediately when I ask “what did you say?” because usually I heard him just fine and just need a minute or two to process. Him repeating himself actually stops the processing and I need to start again.

There’s a pretty interesting book that also explains this quite well: “Sensory perceptual issues in autism and Asperger’s syndrome” by Olga Bogdashina. It’s a bit older which explains the title but still very interesting.

Underclothes need to be tight fitting, either cotton or bamboo, because I need that feeling of slight pressure and knowing “where my body ends”. Outer clothes I prefer to be soft and airy as well but they can be loose fitting.

Money.

Bob Wright who founded the organization with his wife was/is a lawyer, lobbyist and businessman, at the time they founded the organization he was chairman and executive of NBC. So he had the money and knew the right people.

Just a few points, you’ll find much more just putting “autism speaks controversy” into the search engine of your choice.

They view autism as a disease that needs to be cured.

They made videos saying autism will destroy your marriage, your family and your life.

They advocate to develop prenatal testing for autism with the goal of having women abort their supposedly autistic babies.
