sapient [they/them]

I just wish we’d get solid, affordable RISC-V already. Especially with the arbitrary-length vector instruction extension, which I find to be a much better design for hardware compatibility than the fixed width extensions in x86 (and ARM too, AFAIK).

Life Pro Tip

ITT: people advocating eugenics on themselves. I hate it. I hate seeing it. And stuff like this is psychologically destructive to read for me.

If people here don’t like others with similar traits to them advocating that their life and perspective is not valuable and that they should hate it and wish no-one new experience it, I recommend avoiding this thread - even moreso if you have suicidal tendencies. It was very upsetting for me ;-;, even though I personally have no intent to have kids.

I’m not sure they’ll succeed in extinguishing linux. But I do get the worry, especially with WSL.

What I am more worried about is them potentially extinguishing git via their control of github. In particular, with their github cli tool and such >.<

I’ve always thought of “blob” in yerms of ot being opaque and hard to understand, like a blob of putty with little structure you can dig into to get at it, you just have to take it as one solid barely understandable mass to use it.

Never thought of it as Binary Large OBject ;p

We shouldn’t get bullied into believing people can be any sex they want to be. They can’t

They can’t

Sounds like a challenge for transhumanist tech to solve 😎✊⚧️Ⓐ💻.

(Other people have covered the factual incorrectness here - the short of it is that (1) gender =/= sex and (2) “sex” isnt some monolithic thing but a complex, multi-axis thing itself - most of these axes are changeable to various degrees as well ^.)

If they’d called it Dogs arse Flu you wouldn’t even comment.

This is totally irrelevant?? It was a coronavirus, not a flu virus, which is why it’s not called as some kind of flu strain.

P.S. Sar-cov2 is the alleged infection agent and not Covid19, which is a list of basic symptoms.

It is the infection agent. Not the “”“alleged”“” infection agent. Also casual conversation and speech is a thing ^.

I assure you i’m not capable of having been infected by a computer model, and I have absolutely been infected with covid-19 in the past.

The uk has a serious surveillance state cultural problem.

And holy fuck is this dumb.

I like:

• fryup + frying
• dish + cooking

It lives!

Here’s the data, from Sensor Tower

Hopefully not associated with scientology this time ;p

I came up with an idea (on my alt account ^.^) to improve discoverability… it’s more focused on instance or group discovery, though it may be doable for users with a probabalistic reverse index for efficiency. See: https://infosec.pub/post/429743

I think folks would like some actual evidence before bandwagoning.

Though good on you for starting your own instance ^.^

“Normal” is a social construct that hardly anyone probably fits into. Most people have at least some major traits that diverge from the average.

The reason people dislike the use of “normal” is because it’s usually used with the connotation that being outside of whatever is being described/considered as “normal” is bad, and describing a group as “abnormal” is usually meant as an insult and used to dehumanise.

I’m not ashamed of being trans regardless of whether it’s “”“normal”" ^.^, and I don’t think being whatever our society deems “”“normal”“” is even desireable - though as I said before, most people are likely outside society’s definition of a “”“normal”“” personl in at least a couple categories.
