Sleepwear is definitely a hack, I used that a lot early in my transition too as a low stakes method of affirmation.

With respect to dysphoria I’ve frankly reached a point where it’s not so prevalent in my day to day life, ca 5 years into my social transition. It crops up of course but it’s much less pronounced, to the point where I was technically misgendered by a colleague (who did the right thing and immediately and discretely corrected himself), and that didn’t even feel bad at all.

This also applies to euphoria though.

people are always calling for the ‘year of the linux desktop’ and then turn around and do backlash to try to keep things obfuscated and unfriendly to the average human

To be fair to both of these groups in my impression those are usually separate people. People definitely have different visions for what good design is here.

The thing that strikes me as bad is when Unix conservatives (for lack of a better term) actively resists features to support use in modern, bit-mapped graphics as opposed to 70’s teletype terminals etc. But that’s just a terrible position, not necessarily hypocrisy, assuming they don’t care about Linux as the kernel in a desktop operating system for people whose hobby is not configuring their computer.

Now that is news, and a much, much worse thing when it’s an expressed policy than when it’s “please don’t submit a tiny change to only documentation as a PR that’s just annoying”.

It must be an allusion to Stalingrad and presumably the battle there where the red army beat the crap out of the nazis, so you’re not wrong.

You’re joking but this is literally a plan I have

Look, it’s my favourite energy drink Peal Doul!

Joking aside that image is disgusting? Why is it so disgusting?

You joke but I realised I feel exactly the same about this as I do about the choice of C++, which is: deep sigh ok sure

This framing made me read the comment in the link as a transphobic joke (“ha ha I won’t accept your change of gender ie will misgender you”) which would have been a pretty smoking gun if left there, and in case anyone else makes the same incorrect interpretation I’d like to warn them that they’re talking about grammatical gender, in the PR.

I think it’s a stretch to call this transphobia; if anything it’s good ol’fashioned sexism, but a pretty tame one.

Apparently the instruction set is off-brand MIPS64?!

I’m not an American but my impression is the Supreme Court is mainly designed as a last bulwark to ensure the US never under any circumstances ever does anything remotely good and this isn’t exactly improving that impression.

Am I doing something wrong, it scrolls fine for me?

I’m a bit worried about their choice of name

Sweden’s mostly on Meta Messenger. WhatsApp is the foreign exchange student protocol.

Can you (or a human) expand NPM, presumably not the Node Package Manager?

It’s also a lot better than doing it in 100% C++ templates!

I tried but it turns out writing device drivers it very very boring

Has anyone been able to find an actual description of what this does? I clicked two layers deep and neither explains the details. It does sound like they’re doing CPU scheduling in the hardware, which is cool and makes some sense, but the descriptions are too vague to explain what the hell this is except “more parallelism goes brrrr” and it’s not clear to me why current GPUs aren’t already that.

The hell? This is precisely what atomic desktops were supposed to save us from!

I’m planning on making Linux from super scratch where I start with the kernel and write every other component myself. ETA: 9000000 years

Oh no we’ve gone full circle
