There is no standard what red USB A ports mean. Could be fast charging through some proprietary protocol or other special features. Or just a design choice.

USB ports with no symbol just don't advertise what they're capable of. Most phones support super speed data transfer. Basic USB-PD and display port output support is also common. They may also support other stuff, like pretending to be a webcam, audio output and much more. But you usually have to look in the manual or data sheet to know what is supported.

A "strawberry" is a berry only by names (it's closest relative is the hazelnut, IIRC),

Close relatives to strawberries are other similar plants like Sibbaldia. More distantly related are roses and lots of other fruits like raspberries, apples, peaches and so on. Hazelnuts are even more distantly related (not super far, but also not super close). You're probably thinking of hazelnuts because the small seeds on strawberries are technically nuts.

Not the easiest option, but you can sew your own clothes.

Https://Freesewing.org was created by a large guy who couldn't find good clothes in his size, so he started to design his own ones.

Depends what you count. Seconds? Milliseconds? Nanoseconds?

To be completely fair, I picked up sewing recently as a new special interest and I'm still in the learning phase.

I prefer pure cotton (or linen or other cotton based fabrics like viscose or modal) and then the fabric you choose depends on how thick it needs to be and if it should be elastic (jersey, sweat) or not (eg. standard woven dress shirt fabric, denim, canvas,...). I buy most of my fabric online as I don't like interacting with people, but going into stores definitely has advantages in that you can touch the fabric.

I only machine sew (unless hand sewing small parts is kinda necessary). My fine motor functions are pretty bad (probably autism related), so I got a cheap standard sewing machine and a used serger from eBay.

So far I've made a hoodie, some tops/t-shirts, some underwear ( didn't come out very well tbh, had not the right fabric) and I've changed some store bought jeans and t-shirts to fit me better.

Check out freesewing if you're interested, there are lots of neurodiverse people on their discord server who can help you and the website can create sewing patterns for your sizes.

They stayed mostly the same, experience wise, but as an adult I can make more choices myself. And I have more experience about what causes issues and what I should avoid in general.

I however still have issues with loud noise, itchy clothing, bright light and too much touch. But as an adult I can just buy (or sew) the clothing I can tolerate, I can wear noise cancelling headphones and wear sunglasses and just don't touch people and pretty much nobody can force me to do otherwise.

Too many lunatic idiots on the internet to be able to tell between one and one who makes a joke.

USB devices are also hotpluggable, but that doesn't mean that the data stays in the system if you just pull out the HDD.

"Bescheissen" is not as vulgar as you might think, even if it contains Scheisse (shit).

A more literal translation would be "little Good Lords cheat". The "*le" at the end is a local (South German) dialect thing, a diminutive suffix meaning "little", just like "doggy" means "little dog".

Yeah, stuff like where the direction of flow depends on the order you've built the pipes isn't realistic at all.

I'm looking forward to try the new mechanics and I don't think the new system will make trains obsolete. Using tons of pipes will create large buffers, which will have low throughput until the pipes are filled sufficiently. You might still need to build pumps regularly to prevent backflow into large buffers, e.g. to not cause huge backflow into the entry pipes when connecting another new oil pumping outpost.

They could also add other mechanics for balance, for example if a pipe gets destroyed that could empty out the whole associated buffer (as the fluid would've leaked out), again making huge pipe networks dangerous.
