It also strangely made me glad I don't do "interpreting" or subtlety. People are told upfront what I want to say, no "did they notice it was a date invitation" horror.

I'm too busy not wanting to have a body or expression to think of which gender this body should express itself as. To be fair, I'm not sure if this counts as cis, but it's similarly easy.

This video by Vihart encapsulates my feelings on gender pretty well.

But on the "straight" part, attraction is a very complicated thing. Lots of people will never or hardly ever feel any sexual attraction to people of a gender for a myriad of reasons.

And I suppose that, for a lot of cis people here, they actually like the role at least a little bit. Considering how toxic the enforcement of those roles are, I think we should also cherish our cis comrades who feel the most comfortable in them while being receptive of trans people and being good people in general.

Nothing wrong with being cis, just with being an asshole about it.

Thanks for that, I was starting to get hopeful for Britain. Only hope for that island is as a future Atlantis.

You know and I know it’s the toughest, most efficient, most effective border security bill this country’s ever seen

I dare you to guess which one said this.

An actual leftist British political party? Idk man, sounds antisemitic to me.

Who wants to bet on whether Corbyn will join? Idealistic and conciliatory as he was, at least Gaza was one of the good wedge issues he never seemed to back away from. He also got a lot of flak for his "Stop the War Coalition" thing for ending Ukraine's War.

Whenever I'm stressed I get some very scary and vivid nightmares of being attacked by large dogs.

But other than that I also constantly have very realistic and boring dreams that feed me inconvenient false information.

Just the other day I completely dreamed up a couple of comments from a colleague about a project, and was very confident that they actually had said that until I went back in the message history to double check.

The worst dreams are the ones that follow you while awake.

Ryujinx will still exist, and is much more stable in my experience.

github(dot)io markdown pages are free and accouts require no personal information to create.

I agree, but it somehow took me by surprise a CIA (or ex-CIA) person would use their own personal Twitter account to engage in twitter fights.

You'd think the intelligence guy would be a bit more savvy about how to use social media pseudonymously.

Se rolar esse impeachment, acho que vai ser muito flopado. Tirando os doidos politizados e os doidos do whatsapp, ninguém parece nem ligar muito pra situação me Israel.

Pode até acontecer, mas não vai ter muito apoio popular, e em política interna vai continuar Alckmin e Haddad. Mas seria uma ótima oportunidade pro Lula fazer o que a Dilma não conseguiu e chamar a base e talvez até se solidificar no governo.

Tfw when you want to demilitarise the police, but the civilian police also sucks.

Movie AI apocalypse: Skynet takes over every computer on the internet and nukes all urban centres

Real "AI" apocalypse: clueless general asks a probabilistic chatbot what to do every day, accidentally starts war

 

Get a load of this guy. Apparently, putting forward "beliefs and ideology" are against their code of conduct.

His comment about blocking lemmygrad don't seem that bad to me, it's getting a bit annoying seeing lost dotworlders thinking they're the first one to ever say "communism bad."

 

Edit disclaimer: Obviously don't do protests such as these without proper consideration of the consequences. Some countries have facial recognition cameras and lots of them have laws against this. Even if I believe it's less risky than the usual headline grabbing stuff (XR gluing themselves) you are still in danger of both being tagged and arrested or being attacked by civilians. This should only be done as part of an organisation that supports this idea and can help you understand and deal with whatever consequences arise, and should not be taken as an endorsement of "lone wolf protesting". Change can only come through organised group effort.

A lot of the car people I've talked to in car cities usually cite cars being "individually convenient" as a reason why they use them. I randomly thought of a way to turn that around with very little effort.

Lots of car cities have these traffic sign buttons that operate on intervals of 30 to 60 seconds in their high traffic roads. It just so happens that some of those are where people are already waiting for the bus.

Just doing a minor experiment by triggering that button every time the sign went green for some 10 minutes it clearly caused some disturbance on a low traffic hour as an individual action. I bet even a very small group doing something like that during rush hour could cause traffic jams that XR could only dream of without having to glue yourself or risk arrests too much.

What do y'all think? It's very likely others have thought of this and I'm late to the party.

 

Does Musk gain anything for making Mastodon such a good alternative?

 

I've been perusing the wiki looking for some sources, and I think I may even want to contribute to it in a month or so. But I noticed a lot of the book references include libgen links. While I think it's a great convenience, couldn't having it be so prominent eventually get the project in legal trouble?

 

A couple lib conclusions, but a good exploration of yet another instance of enshitification of the internet monopolies. Also it mentions adNauseam and I like to remind people that Google banned adNauseam directly in Chromium.

After google took down Vanced (a custom hacked youtube viewer with no ads and a ton of features), some people on github have made an even more robust and open version called ReVanced. Since the youtube monopoly implies we're forced to use this shit platform anyways, what do y'all think of this tool for android phones?

Edit: I should've made it "Youtube alternative frontend appreciation thread" because y'all suggested many good ones I hadn't heard of.
