Personally, I block pretty much all exclusionary communities for a few reasons:

• I frequently do not see the community name before looking at a thread and finding something interesting to converse on, partly because of my neurodivergences. This leads to breaking rules without intending to. Safer to block.

• I sometimes have experienced RSD as a symptom of my neurodivergences and thus intentionally take action to prevent it.

• I value inclusivity and anarchic social organization as fundamental parts of my ethical framework and find social exclusion based upon a person’s immutable traits incredibly offensive (the intensity of this is definitely related to my neurodivergences as well).

This is not to say that I don’t believe that women deserve a space where they have control and agency, especially with the immense amounts of misogyny on the Internet and meatspace. Nor do they need to consider my feelings nor any other man’s when deciding their rules and whether to be inclusive or exclusive.

I do, however, think that the hard-line exclusionary practices diminish the perspective, both for the participants and for men who could definitely use the insights into the bullshit that women have to continue to deal with. Lots of missed opportunity to build understanding and strengthen allyship. It also makes it easier for toxic exclusionary ideologies, like TERFs to take root (every group excluded makes it easier to excuse excluding another) while also preventing people who have not discovered their feminine gender identities from participating in conversation with other women in ways that could help them to uncover important things about themselves.

Anyway, enjoy and I hope that you find your space helpful to you, regardless of what myself out any other man feels about it. If the community does become inclusive, I’d definitely like to to know so that I can unblock it.

Maybe use satellite imaging or the like.

I think that they would be necessary still to respect the memory of the fiercely independent people and prevent corporate exploitation of the land.

“But if we avoid using the tools of democracy to create positive change and instead encourage people to not vote and be apathetic, we can make the human experience objectively worse for everyone. And, if we do it hard enough, and ensure that enough vulnerable people are sacrificed, it will magically turn those apathetic people into class l-conscious revolutionaries that are willing to die violent deaths for our version of utopia.”

I wish this were a “/s”.

Appinages are fine. Needing to apply changes as patchsets rather than just building normally sucks. Especially in deb and rpm distros.

I agree and disagree at the same time. Bars/clubs/etc can be good for quick hookups. Social hobbies can lay groundwork for much greater depths of sustained sluttery.

Honestly, one doesn’t really have to have low standards when taking that approach. Just go to bars that fit one’s vibe and talk to people, and don’t be judgemental on superficial things. Either it’ll click with someone or not.

To be fair, it does help if one finds the majority of people of their preferred gender(s) to have something beautiful about them.

And being a bit of a slut. I can state from personal experience that that helps. Embrace your inner slut (ethically).

I recently started the anime. Yeah. Pretty accurate. Luffy (main character) wants to become king of the pirates but has an ethical code similar to a knight-errant. His crew is very much the same. In one arc, they all risk their lives (including one of them who was still recovering from near-fatal wounds), initially because one of the crew was enslaved as a child by pirates that murdered their mother.

So, yeah. Pretty accurate.

Here’s a cross-over mineral and biology:

Teeth are not bone. They are made of a variety of the mineral apatite called hydroxyapatite (fluoride treatment converts some of it into fluorapatite, which has stronger chemical bonds).

Further, apatite is a homophone for appetite but they come from completely different root words.

How will this impact the people in the Epstein Files?

I thought that name sounded familiar. I keep seeing people float the idea of her relative as a presidential candidate as if we need another fucking ultra-wealthy dickhead in a high position of governmental power.

Would have been nice if automobile companies hadn’t sabotage public transport infrastructure to make a demand for their product and then barely received a slap on the wrist for it.

Honestly, I didn’t expect great reading comprehension or other skills necessary for clerical work from people who knowingly choose to be neo-nazis.

Easy to find them with a Geiger counter.

Fortunately, it looks like that was done already with Swanstation, which also has many more contributors.

Yes. The license doesn’t technically appear to forbid forking, just sharing the fork.

I have some issues with flatpak, myself, but that mainly stems from having trouble finding documentation to clear up how to properly use extensions and non-standard dependencies that are easy to do with OCI images.

Ex. I had a really hard time trying to get Vega Strike built as a flatpak.

Yeah… That’s pretty terrible. I was meaning packaging patchsets for other distros. Hopefully the GPL-preserving fork is better.

Hopefully, in a less destructive and more symbiotic manner. As much as I have a grudge against odorous house ants, I wouldn’t wish cordyceps on them, much less our future crab descendents.

Yeah. It was admittedly a bit heartbreaking to discover that it appears that there are no extant descendents of any sauropod or ornithischia species. :(
