What did you get and for how much? To me it seems the framework (at least the 16) is only a bit (100-200 out of 1600) more expensive than laptops with similar specs.

One possibility is to allow users to join a controlled allowlist (or a blocklist, though that runs more into that problem), where some actor acts as a trust authority (which the user picks). This keeps the P2P model while still allowing for large networks since every individual doesn't have to be a "server admin". A user could also pick several trust authorities.

Essentially, the network would act as a framework for "centralized" groups, while identity remains completely its own.

Yeah, that's why I generally prefer "queer". Plus, it's not an acronym, and reclaiming words is always good!

It... sorta runs. It's a pretty badly designed program on its own (I think it runs some web stuff, but its not electron). It looks terrible on wine, some menus are broken, syncing doesn't work, etc. In the end I just installed it on windows (which I have for VR) and then literally never used it again (calibre-web is great)

What's your opinion on Tauri?

You posted to it lmao, by @ ing linux@lemmy.ml. Fediverse!

First, like the other thread said, eating bugy isn't a conspiracy. It's also not "subpar" or whatever, it's.. food.

Second, I never understand people's aversion to... food that isn't currently alive in your plate. I have eaten bugs, I've eaten a lot of plants, I've eaten a lot of different animals... it's all just food.

Okay but do you expect me to actually know anything about what I'm saying?

(Jokes aside my bad TIL thanks)

I can understand it tho. What other GUI toolkits have a markup language like HTML? It's so easy compared to having 50 billion different widgets, adding stuff through code is so verbose..

It's actually an even worse mess politically than singular they! French is much worse in terms of gender, not only because the translation for plural they is gendered (any group containing something male is "ils", any group of only female stuff is "elles"), but adjectives are also heavily gendered!

My nonbinary friends I know irl just go for either bc it's easier. Some people use newly (ish) invented pronouns like "iel" or "ielle" which... I personally don't like because they don't fit the phonology very well and they're a mix of the two instead of a separate thing. Apparently some dialects used to/use "ul" and "ol" which are much nicer imo, but that still leaves the question of adjectives.

Ofc, all this also has the whole aspect of "the wokes going crazy", plus also France is very against the anglicization (however you spell that) of language and culture so there's that extra aspect (ironically, the right use "le wokeisme" which is a horrible anglicism, while railing against anglicization).

Yeah, but that's also an issue with "you". I'd say make a new pronoun but that's a whole other set of pains (e.g. I don't like xe/xem because it looks bad, doesn't fit with standard english. ze/zem is better or even something like ke or ge).

Hell, I'd be all for moving to an official constructed language for international communication but that's a whole other other set of problems (who makes it, what should it be based on and how do we make it fair, how to get people to use it).

Basically there's no good solution to language problems because prescriptivism doesn't work and all languages suck in some ways.

... you've not heard of singular they, a pronoun used in english by Shakespear himself, that existed before singular you?

"Oh, somebody forgot their jacket" has existed since forever.

Yeah when someone deletes a comment the counter... does that.

^ does not have context, doesn't care, only wants to be mad

Congrats.

(If you do have context, that's even worse lmao a good amount of the comments were pretty clear-cut)

Yeah imo it'd be weird. Like in a theoretical sense you could be attracted to them but a relationship I don't think would work (for a straight dude which I am not so take that with a grain of salt)

You know you can block a community right? And if it's not for you, you can just... not participate, too. It was "thrust upon you" in the same way that every other community in c/all is thrust upon you. You make the active choice of browsing non-curated content, then complain that it doesn't consider you?

Seriously, you're complaining about literally nothing. If you don't feel like this is for you, block it.

It's specifically before transition. Honestly to me the original comment is pretty okay, a bit easy to misunderstand. From what I got it was "yeah since I like women, and a trans man before transitioning looks like a woman, I'd be attracted to them. However the parts attractive to me are dysphoric for them which probably causes conflict" which seems like somebody thinking aloud about something they haven't put a lot of thought into ever.

Anyway the mod's post was bad, the comments were awful, bloody mess.

Why are you showing up in a comment section without having most of the context on a post that doesn't concern you or your communities? Legit asking, what is the point of this comment?

Unrelated to the post: it's so cool that you're replying from mastodon

I think it's because 196 here is "bigger" in relative terms, so it shows up more in c/all, so you get more people from other places getting exposed.
