There's a noticable influx of trans kids in my job. Are there any topics I should avoid or considerations I should take into account when training them?

  • Yeah... since you are asking, try not to do anything. They're people. They like jokes too.

    Of course, all advise given in this thread is valuable, but I mean being overcautious may be the "special treatment" that is there routinely reminding them "oh you're different". They don't need that. Just respect.

    • lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month

    Jump

  • Yet, they're entitled to their own decisions, triumphs and failures. So, they can shutdown the instance. Now, it would be a different thing if people really want them to be around again, raise some money, grab a backup, buy the domain name, let's gooo!! ..or not. Fine by me. If only 2 users from the instance decided to start a new one this is a huge win :)

    Maybe won't be all entirely too bad or doom... I would like to see a silver lining, some FLOSS developers are smarter than trolls.

    • 30M After divorce I got literally zero support from anyone, why?

    Jump

  • Sounds like that toxic relationship continued through divorce with her making everyone "take sides" and stealing all support. Can't give you any advice, you could reach out to some of your closest friends... Or, just start fresh with new people.. like, moving to a new city or neighborhood.

    Good luck! Stay safe and strong :)

  • Good take. Jokes aside, to me it only sounded like a terf or an ignorant. All women are women. Plus, the detail didn't add to what they said in the next sentences..

  • Peasants? In one of the top capitalist countries?? Haha, good one... They certainly have farms, but that's just one end of the production ..

    • I'm guilty of not reading the f..ing documentation

    Jump

  • I do read the docs. Even before trying software, to judge if ot will fulfill my requirements... Rocky Linux is one such example. Great docs, I'd love to try their distro one day :)

    • We did the math on AI’s energy footprint. Here’s the story you haven’t heard.

    Jump

  • I just wanted to clarify the confusion that was in my head for a moment after going after the truth and fact checking. If I buy a pizza with Bitcoin and Lightning Network (which is the only one in use at most legal places), it's not like I'm using 1600 kWh... The original message is misleading in that regard.. Practical and concrete reality are different. But theoretical, if that pizza wanted a normal transaction it would use such amount of energy and take days (that's why they wouldn't use that)... So... There's that.

    Anyway, the dichotomy 'AI or Crypto' is false. I am not taking sides. But you do you, enjoy.

  • That's not true if you were to use off-chain transactions (i.e. lightning network)

    • Vibe Coders might be serious, but I cannot take them seriously, especially when they say "It is a must-have skill".

  • Continued expansion or ever-increasing profits is a definitive characteristic of the system though. Enshittification is just the latest feature it found, for software-based companies.

    One could also argue that enshittification is independent to software, like diluting juice or other "innovations" that products received...

  • It could be that not many users see that issue with the phone not waking up because they may be using the fingerprint sensor. Was the other person also having it disabled? If so, you may have something to start debugging... Good luck!

    • Were you aware?

    Jump

  • Shitpost. Indeed... From Wikipedia:

    In a letter to Yvonne Davet, Orwell described Animal Farm as a satirical tale against Stalin ("un conte satirique contre Staline"),[7] and in his essay, "Why I Write" (1946), wrote: "Animal Farm was the first book in which I tried, with full consciousness of what I was doing, to fuse political purpose and artistic purpose into one whole".

    Jump

  • Instances can close registrations if there are too many bots, and somehow it could be okay. Bots aren't impossible to fight, the problem is that capitalist platforms support or ignore the issue since for them is somewhat convenient driving engagement... Or whatever ad-revenue system is behind that.
