Can a neurotypical person please explain their definition of a reason vs an excuse? Because I am genuinely confused.

When asked "why did you do it this way?", I'm going to explain my process to you, because you asked. But as I start talking you go "I don't want your excuses"?

the entire interface of this machine consisted of:
- one designer who was not used to the scale of 320x240 pixels and had no software that would directly accommodate it because they came from a mobile design background
- me doing skunkworks "i can put images on this screen"

fun fact: yes this machine is using ubuntu mono for fonts

because: it was the only font we found at short notice that would scale down to bitmap with proper pixel hinting and wasn't a licensing nightmare

the one thing that keeps me going is hearing from people who believe in me more than i believe in myself
