JK Rowling and the other TERFs have kinda ruined that term just like the american right soiled the flag.

I prefer “egalitarian” at this point, less loaded, and gender inclusive. I’m one of those radicals where I want non-traditional families, no gender roles, and all the vanilla straight stuff to all exist side by side in harmony.

Also, women’s clothes needs real pockets. And men need cuter clothes like shortalls. That’s a world I want to be a part of :)

The one thing I’m not egalitarian about- straight men need to be taught to pee sitting down, or at least lift the seat, damn. I know it’s not all of you, but there are a couple of animals out there that need help. :p

My text tone is the fatal error sound from XP:

Storage (tech), bike tires, many consumable parts. Almost all digital goods, too.

Yeah, I’ve given up on bootloaders long ago. After I broke my last phone, finding a decent mid range phone with expandable storage, a headphone jack, stylus and nice colors was pretty nice. The cameras are decent, and the processing power is fine for most stuff. The only time it slows down is if I’m cropping and editing a video or screen recording, which is a pretty seldom thing.

I got Motorola with a headphone jack, and I use it surprisingly often. All my Bluetooth stuff has fallen apart faster than my wired stuff.

I want a watch that isn’t a pain in the ass to set alarms, timers, timezones, etc. I also want 24H time and many days of battery life.

That’s why I’m getting it. It will be nice for cooking and work, haha.

It should be. Once it’s out.

I might ask a librarian for good books on it. Investopedia can also help break things down.

My personal, unsolicited advice (edit: this is US-based advice, I’m not familiar with EU regs): I personally prefer low to medium risk stuff like the S&P 500 index funds and mutual funds. Max your 401k if your company matches it. Dump that into an IRA whenever you switch jobs. HSAs are a pretty decent deal if you live in the US and your company offers one.

Mostly, it’s about saving and investing whatever you have, and not spending all of your money. You don’t need to be a genius on this stuff. Lower risk investments + time = good outcomes. As you get higher paying jobs, keep investing more and more into your retirement and investment accounts.

Transit is pretty good for turn by turn on bikes!

Morningstar sausages are pretty solid. But good Lord, the bacon looks like construction paper.

Honestly, what I’m really hoping for is clean meat, labgrown. It should curb deforestation, reduce the environmental strain, and help wolves curb CWD in deer populations.

I think the only games I’ve bought and haven’t played are VR games that I can’t play because my index is in storage, or bundled/gifted/giveaway games that I got but didn’t really want. Vanishingly few, in other words.

For vocals, probably Constellations (Unplugged) by Dabu. This song can be found on less compressed platforms too, which I recommend

There are none. The two are fundamentally incompatible.

If we are talking in the magical sense, absolutely not, especially if it was proportional to crimes committed. Putin, Trump, XI, and Kim never would have made it to power, not to mention quite a few others.

We used Google maps today, but it put us on an actual stroad with sharrows. Five lane, 35 mph road. We uncomfortably rode on the sidewalk. On the way back, our group noticed that there was a large bike lane on the other side of the road that Google didn’t use, and that it kept us on car lanes, not safer power center parking lots and all that.

Somewhat disheartening, unfortunately. :/

I don’t really like it, but sometimes those types of cases are the only good ones with radiator clearance in a relatively small footprint.

I still miss this one, it was all metal and very close to an Apple G5 case, minus the compatibility issues.

Unfortunately, this case also couldn’t support radiators in any meaningful capacity, so I had to sell it. Currently using a Lian li case that I dislike, but it has damn good radiator support, and my PC is now completely silent.

I like foldables, but I won’t be getting another one until Samsung and other OEMs dramatically overhaul their design and durability. When a ribbon connector went bad, they required repair companies to replace the two screens and hinge, a $600 repair on a phone worth $400. The ribbon connector is a 20¢ component, if that. I ended up getting a Motorola on sale for $250 that can do most of what high end flagships can do.

My buddy started balding at 16. He held on for a number of years, but eventually we helped him rip the bandaid off and he shaved himself bald. Instantly looked younger again just because he didn’t have a ring of hair at 27 anymore. Honestly, it can look really cool if you shave it.

Universities are like little cities. I love all the different styles they have :)

It also shows the strength and resilience of an area. Places like that have weathered many booms and busts. It’s particularly interesting when one building has many styles, having been continuously occupied for hundreds of years. Or in some cases, even longer.
