I usually read the articles linked in Lemmy but I haven’t managed to bring myself to read the whole of this one. It’s utter lunacy, linked (of course) to the EA and the cult of Yudkowsky.

Apparently the Wikipedia for The Collins is also an endless source of crazy.

To be fair, it’s such a load of nonsense that it isn’t really worth reading…

At least those are big, the ones that woman is wearing have both a thick and small frame which makes a truly horrible effect.

I always was on the “nerd” side at school but boy do those faces look punchable.

No, I think that’s talking about Aria Babu, a person from London who’s changed the focus of her career to become a “pronatalist”. The woman in the photos is Simone Collins, and I haven’t read about her age. I’m usually the kind that reads the whole articles on links but I could only bring myself to skim through this lunacy.

I’m one of those people that throughout the day sits in about 10 different positions, 8 of those being things that Health & Safety wouldn’t approve of.

But still looking at this is making my back hurt, it’s wild that people would work 8+ hours like this before office ergonomics were a concept.

After the 6th of Jan, I can’t be convinced that the USA takes treason seriously.

The budget can work, but you’d have to get creative. For example, a used A6000 series camera and an “old”, probably manual focus zoom.

You lose some niceties (AF for starters) but it’s better than not having a camera!

No, -r and -f are two different switches. -r is recursive, used so that it also removes folders within the directory. -f is force (so overriding all confirmations, etc).

Also queen, “James, you’re such an Excel queen”. I’ve seen this sort of use many times at my workplace. It doesn’t have anything to do with gender or sexual orientation.

It’s obviously more niche than “dude” but I’ve seen it before.

Do a search on yourself - try to find out your real identity based on information online, and do it as thoroughly as if you were searching for your worst enemy.

If you can find who you are yourself, chances are they will.

Make sure you don’t have anything “hairy” tied to an email with an email address you’d use for anything uncompromising. E.g. keep the email you use to login on Lemmy and the email you use to login on netflix separate.

Use 2 factor authentication and a password manager. Treat your password leaks seriously and consider any leaked accounts burnt - assume the details you had in there are now known.

Avoid using your real name on anything you can.

Best wishes. Take care my friend!

I don’t care if it’s single ply. I just fold tp until it has the appropriate thickness anyway.

If it’s single ply, I just use a lot of TP and make it many-ply.

It’s because they’re not AAA anymore. They went AAAA so I guess they’ve had a financial rating overflow and now they’ve gone negative.

Trump will fix it. Concepts of thoughts and prayers.

Need more storage for windows bloat…

I had that too. When you’re a cis male adult you’ve had decades of social conditioning telling you that’s not allowed. I’m gay but being born in Spain I was brought up in a traditional macho culture. I’d “pass” except for those with the most finely tuned gaydar, not because I tried hiding it by the time I realised but because I was conditioned to fit in the straight cis male behaviour box.

It took me a few years of unlearning trying to shake it off myself and what helped most, a loving partner who is in tune with his emotions. I have gotten immensely better at understanding and expressing my emotions, verbally or otherwise, and also doing that without channelling them into “proxy” emotions that are acceptable for macho expectations and culture.

Lessons will be available at least, even if nobody decides to take away anything from them.

Once a cheater, always a cheater.

That’s true, but the person perceived to be “in power” in the relationship (what was called traditionally the breadwinner) is less likely to complain about the situation. I don’t think many working people, women or otherwise, think “I wish I could work at home tidying up the house for no salary and have no income of my own!”

I agree with your point still - once children are in the equation some women might shift towards the traditional view if that means they’d get to stay at home spending time with them.

No, I meant flats in the city of Oviedo. With heating. And I said 2 bedrooms. I think two basic necessities for a couple with kids in a city that gets into negative degrees in the winter?

Not flats within “6 hours walk of Oviedo”.

Anyway, you’re missing my point entirely. Whatever.
