Progressive open minded mycologist: "Which of the 23,328 sexes are you?"
Me: "Stop trying to put me in a box!!!" 💃

And the full version of windows. Honestly I love Linux with Wine for the same reason. I just encounter more hiccups that way rather than the WSL route. It's just more complicated to emulate GUIs.

I believe the "fight" is to change their mind about trying to take away your rights. It may be anecdotal, but I've seen people's minds change on this topic through respectful conversation. Never after being told to shut the fuck up. I can only imagine they're more likely to vote against you and basic human rights after being told "eat my ass" by a trans rights supporter online.

If you wish them the same, do you expect them to suddenly start treating you with respect? If you find yourself in a mentally dangerous place after interacting with these people, I would suggest avoiding these interactions as much as possible. But if you have the capacity to bring them towards a better way of thinking with some respect, I sincerely suggest you do. I just don't see how we're going to get out of this cycle of hate without someone stepping up and trying to bridge the gap. I doubt the people that want you dead for just being yourself have the maturity to start that journey on their own.

Ok well while they do that, they're still voting and spreading their ideas to like minded individuals. I'm not saying we normalize their behavior. Fuck that backwards shit. But your dismissive attitude only serves to alleviate your own burden of interacting with them and entrenching them further in their hatred of those with other options.

Feel free to disagree, because I definitely understand the mental difficulty of dealing with people that just want to hate. So I'd love an alternative. But treating people as disposable ain't it, I'm afraid.

This comment restored a little of my faith in humanity today. Thanks. I know a lot of people understand this. But the loudest people on the internet don't and that can be discouraging.

Sounds like some people I'd need some time away from too lmao. Good to have people that care tho.

Not OP, But WSL and its recent improvements come to mind. If you're deploying on a Linux box it makes it pretty seamless to develop.

My random conjure if anyone cares:
I see it like many 'real' medicines that alleviate symptoms. Sometimes the symptoms are the ones causing the issues, EX. a fever to kill germs can kill braincells. But like any medicine that alleviates symptoms, it can also hide problems. So I see it as a case by case thing.

I like Snapchat, it encourages video communications really well. Of course many other platforms have video, but the fact that by default, there's not going to be a saved log of you being dumb on video really gets people to engage. I know it's possible to save snaps and other platforms have a 'delete after' option for video. But Snapchat just makes it so easy to send a dumb snap to a friend and really inconvenient for them to share it with someone you don't want.

Who?

Yeah I loved Blacklist, even the multiplayer was an interesting evolution of the asymmetrical style the splinter cell series is known for. Since then? 👻

Yeah, that's good info. But these people know they can't take the information from people that already know about it. They're trying to keep new people from learning about it.
