Problem is there needs to be a alternative for audhd people like me. I can't do textbooks and I'm tired of being forced to learn things exclusively through them without much practice.

That would've helped tremendously in my "logic and algorithms" class that it felt like never got any practical practice to see in code. So much of my computer classes based in the theory of it all without allowing me to attempt it in practical applications. It's either that or not being based in reality on languages and technologies we need to learn. Like heck I want to get into tinkering too and there's not much for that in schools where I wouldn't have to have a better paying job to afford the materials myself.

Plus with things like history it's bonkers how much stuff I've found out after the fact bc of living in the south. Esp since I know they tried to push states rights bs on us, and definitely make columbus seem like the Saint he's not. Among other stuff bc people who shouldn't be involved in education are dictating things like this.

Well there's a bunch of content some of my teachers have pulled from that's just as good. Hell with history it's a good idea not to have a state textbook anyway. Shiz omits so much it's unreal. Or it tries to paint times before the Civil war as the best of times despite us yknow owning people o_O

I mean yea but it looks like it's fairly high up tho.....or at least to me it does....

I mean lucky you. Usually my problem was shiz would get slow all the time on it. Haven't ever had that issue when I switched. Windows was just constantly getting more and more unstable for me....and I didn't ever mess with anything to make it act like that....

I mean yea sounds about right. The moderates are wolves in sheep's clothing. Esp when they randomly flip parties and screw us over on rights and encourage the gerrymandering to get worse 🙃

That was the point. Bc I have AuDHD and have always struggled with textbooks but no one has offered a accommodation(which most accommodations have been lackluster in how much help they provide) that worked for me. I wanted to be done with college by now, but so many things on top of the lack of hands-on stuff means I feel like I've learned absolutely nothing.

Don't yell or be abusive. And yknow generally not a dick....

Big plus if they're not toxic af, and kinda understand shiz I deal with being audhd. Like I'd love not to need special shiz but I do. But also fights for us to have better wages. Shiz most bosses don't do in one way or another lol

One of many reasons I'm on Linux now and have been for years. I got tired of the bs and the increasing need fo reinstall often they forced on me....At least when I do it, it's my fault or I'm jumping distros lol
