Hi, I’m Shauna! I’m a 37 year old transgender woman from Ontario, Canada. I’m also a Linux enthusiast, and a Web Developer by trade. Huge Star Trek fan, huge Soulsborne fan, and all-around huge nerd.

I wonder if others have some favourite posters that you they quite often?
For me, it’s @Stamets and ThePicardManuever but I’ve noticed a couple other prominent posters lately although their names haven’t stuck for me just yet.
Christmas is basically a secular holiday for a lot of people these days anyway, but if optics really matter to you, just call it “Yule” or something.
Gitlab is quite good and used by a lot of open source developers.
There are considered to be 10 stages of genocide as described by Wikipedia here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_stages_of_genocide
The stages ramp up in severity until we’re at full gas chamber Nazi status by stage 9 and stage 10 is denying any crime occurred.
I’d say Israel and Palestine were already at like stage 6 before this, now it’s at like stage 8. It’s not clear if Israel actually plans on exterminating all Palestinians, but it sure seems like that’s where they’re leading things.
lol no way! I just watched a video on Extra Mythology about this guy! The guy with 10 heads is Ravana whose grandfather was a Rakshasa demon and the guy on the left is Vibhishana who is Ravana’s brother who will ultimately betray him.

It looks like they used these statues are inspiration in the video because they look identical
I don’t think it has to do with being female or anime. I think OP is saying that they’re either a transgender woman or a femboy who is still in the closet
Do you think using a custom ssh key directory would prevent these malicious apps from working correctly or is there some environment variable that always points to the ssh key folder or I guess they could just run a search on the system for any files like *.pub. Are there any safety procedures that one can take to circumvent these kinds of attacks?
This feels like a great application of AI to root around through the code of packages in these repos and find ones that access the ssh key directory at all to be looked at more thoroughly by a human.
My biggest concern with Epic is their insistence on kernel level anti-cheat which is just ridiculous overkill and probably being used as spyware let’s be honest. They have many ties to China’s Tencent which has a 40% stake in the company and is known to basically just be an extension of the Chinese government.
There’s also the very odd fact that just having the Epic Games Store open in the background will deplete your laptops battery life by up to 20%. Is it just horribly optimized and uses all that battery even when idling, or is it doing something nefarious in the background? We don’t know.
As for exclusives, they have bought exclusives that were mostly crowd funded from the start which is quite the kick in the teeth to the early investors that helped get the project off the ground. And there were even some exclusives that were already listed for pre-order through Steam, forcing everyone to need to get a refund.
Plus, any good will that they’ve purchased so far is just in service of making a good name for themselves. They’ve been losing around $400 million per year since 2019 just to bring in new users. They’re going to suddenly turn around and start being cut-throat as soon as they think they can.
They are not consumer friendly, they want to dictate trends in gaming. Valve is already the king of that throne and they’re fairly benevolent and have pushed trends that are good for gaming and consumers overall. I have serious doubt that Epic would be anywhere near as good for gaming as Valve has been if they should actually become profitable, and an industry leader. Especially when it’s projected that they won’t be profitable until 2027, which means they’ll need to recoup their investment of nearly $3.2 billion since 2019.
There’s something about the way you type that comes across as juvenile. I think it’s the lack of capitalization and grammatical errors. Are you not a native English speaker? That would definitely explain it.
I may be wrong but I think it only does that if you enable proton compatibility in the settings.
I can’t believe nobody has said religion. All of it. Praying to god being a prime example.
Pretty sure they showed on Mythbusters that tapping the side of the can is actually much more effective. The reason is that bubbles form all around the edges (and top) of the can and they cause the massive bubbling up when the can opens.
Ezarr is a pretty great little project for getting started. Just clone the repo and follow the README and it should just be plug and play.
They’re probably saying that because scientific conclusions usually err on the side of caution. Plus they’re using anecdotal evidence to make their claim which is known to be unreliable. However, there’s really no other way to gather data about this except asking people or maybe sticking them in an MRI machine while they achieve orgasm which would be awkward and expensive, so it’s kind of the best we’ve got.
They can then compare cisgender orgasm descriptions to transgender orgasm descriptions and see if they match up. And despite the shaky foundation of anecdotal evidence, this is a very long term study and they used a pretty large sample size (130 participants) so it should weed out any anomalies.
It’s certainly still possible that the participants are imagining or embellishing the results, but I think the people behind the study did the best they could to gather accurate data.
You’re right, my mistake. I was thinking of Existential Nihilism which is a school of thought within Nihilism, but is different in it’s interpretation as I described in my original post.
Existential nihilism is the philosophical theory that life has no objective meaning or purpose… The inherent meaninglessness of life is largely explored in the philosophical school of existentialism, where one can potentially create their own subjective “meaning” or “purpose”.
… Friedrich Nietzsche further expanded on these ideas, and … has become a major figure in existential nihilism.
There are also some quotes of note in the main Nihilism Wikipedia article
Nietzsche distinguishes a morality that is strong or healthy, meaning that the person in question is aware that he constructs it himself, from weak morality, where the interpretation is projected on to something external.
As such, the self-dissolution of Christianity constitutes yet another form of nihilism. Because Christianity was an interpretation that posited itself as the interpretation, Nietzsche states that this dissolution leads beyond skepticism to a distrust of all meaning.
I think Absurdism is more what people are generally describing when they use the term Nihilism in popular culture. Here are a couple of excerpts from the same Existential Nihilism Wikipedia article I linked.
The supposed conflict between our desire for meaning and the reality of a meaningless world is explored in the philosophical school of absurdism.
With Kierkegaard, the concept of absurdism was developed, which explains the concept of humans trying to find meaning in a meaningless world.
Because I’m transgender and have personally experienced both. And yes, there is evidence to support the idea that transgender women experience the same type of orgasm as cisgender women. Here’s a long-term study into transgender orgasms: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0090429523000341
And here’s just the excerpt for the conclusion if you don’t want to read the whole article:
Our findings suggest that TW [transgender women] and TM [transgender men] experience considerable changes in several orgasm function domains after commencing GAHT [gender affirming hormone therapy]. For TW, many of these changes align with what cis-women describe for the same orgasm function domains. GAHT related changes are for the most part experienced positively by patients, and both TW and TM generally report improved overall orgasm quality and satisfaction.
I’m so tired of people thinking that nihilism (Nietzsche’s main philosophy for those unaware) is depressing. It’s not at all, it’s actually very hopeful and liberating. Nihilism can basically be boiled down to “nothing matters” which sounds depressing, but what it really means is that “nobody can tell you what matters from your perspective, only you can decide what matters to you”. It was considered depressing and was railed against by the public at the time because it goes against religious teaching which tells you that religion matters objectively and unquestioningly.
It’s extremely liberating even today despite religion not having a choke hold on society as much as it did during Nietsche’s time. It’s liberating because if what truly matters to you is shitposting on Lemmy, then that’s great! Go live your most meaningful existence! Enjoy yourself and be proud of your accomplishments in that field! You choose your own worldview and what matters to you, and that’s obviously a very a positive thing, it’s not depressing or morose or narrow-minded and I’m tired of people just boiling it down to “Nihilism is for depressed people”.
I think upgrading the RAM as you mentioned is going to make a big difference. While the physical RAM might be soldered to the motherboard, you could buy a fairly cheap SD card or USB and set the system up to use that as virtual memory. It won’t be as fast as actual RAM but it might help and large SD cards are honestly really cheap these days.
