the whole culture of medicine is infected with conservative quacks whose first line of treatment for non-white-men is trying to convince patients they don’t need treatment

There’s loads of people who want whole populations they “disagree” with to not receive care (or anything at all from society). The country is full of fascists who are only sated when others are crushed, it’s basically the whole reason we’ve fallen behind in so many objective measures

this sentiment basically just serve the writer at the expense of the subject and is generally harmful

Graphene has locked itself to google hardware, and google can cripple them at any point by stopping bootloader unlocks. We need to go deeper, or aim higher as it were

Have you seen the courts lately? they’ve turned themselves into a farce with ever more flagrant anti-constitutional rulings. Citing them doesn’t hold the gravity it once did

I think this is all extremely variable from person to person and can’t really be generalized, including the libido thing. Transition brings unusually deep change, including to sexuality, but the way it plays out is extremely individual

It sounds like for you to understand the existence of trans people you probably first need to accept that other people experience gender and sexuality differently than the way you do

All bodies contain the ability to differentiate into what we know as male and female, to varying degrees and in various mixtures. Transgender is just a medical variation in how this normally plays out and spans times and cultures, whereas these other things don’t really have a similar basis.

I don’t fancy myself a genius but the way other people navigate things seems to create a strangely compelling case on its own

I feel like I’m going crazy here with so many comments insisting the fastest way is to wait for everyone in front of them to go first. I could hardly engineer a slower way to go about it

nytimes is more worthless than the tabloids at this point, for they’re equally substantive but the tabloids more entertaining

Biology is super complex. If simply averaging the traits of the parents is how it worked one might expect every child to have a body in between male and female as well

I still work with bash scripts from fish (to interoperate with bash users), but it’s more like how I use python: the interpreter is specified either in the shebang or explicitly on the cli command invoking the script. It works quite well actually

I appreciate your response!

how do you book software work so far out? for some reason my software clients seem to all want their stuff yesterday

I’ve been all over the place tech-wise for at least 15 years now and I keep coming back to debian. Simple, reliable, and impressively enshittification-proof. I was on team xfce but got hooked on i3wm at some point and haven’t seen fit to look back.

I use Sublime for editor - it’s not free which I normally can’t tolerate but it has most of the functionality of vscode without being on the old corporate enshittification slide (and styles on vscode by feeling snappier too)

thank you Hatsune Miku for creating minecraft
