With the recent issues of transgender people in sports, why don’t we move some sports over to a weight-class system?

Obviously this won’t work for all sports, but things like football, track, soccer, it would allow for de-gendered team, even allowing athletes with the skills but not the genetically-endowed physical attributes to have a place to play....

halvar ,

Shouldn’t a woman and a man with the same height, weight, and body-muscle percentage be basically identical in terms of athleticism or am I wrong?

halvar ,

I like this. It’s not really helpful in the sense that it seems almost as hard as being perfect yourself, but nonetheless it’s possible, contrary to the alternative.

Don’t get fooled, that’s called stockholm syndrome.

I know you’re all excited because you just understood the “correlation does not equal causation” principle, but “being religious” generally means being christian in english and I think you are just refusing to see that.

halvar ,

And I removed the “the” in much the same way.

It’s been so long since I geniuenly laughed at a greentext.

I think it’s a paraphrase of a culturally significant webcomic inserted into a more modern context without it’s original meaning being altered.

halvar ,

why is life like this?

Because the whole thing started with anon forgeting their password, the solution for which should be complicated and secure, which it is.

halvar ,

Isn’t that what a password-manager should solve?

A candian probably would start dating anon just to be polite.

I switched to it not even three months ago, after two years on arch and I’m not going back. Just as if not more configurable than arch and it’s actually harder to bloat with something and then forget about it, since you always have user-readable description of your current system.

I didn’t watch it all the way through, but having seen the video it’s criticising I must link this here

One day I realized I developed a skill for correctly inserting the USB on first try and I’m in an existential crisis ever since.

This is such a great reference!

I heard it but I never had an idea what it meant, so I looked it up. NEET means they aren’t in education and don’t have a job employment.

My favourite was “The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don’t.”

Douglas Adams was really a master of subversion.

c and h in my own language (hungarian) and own in english

sounds something like

As far as I know most of our letters are the same.

I held a baby squirrel today! (lemmy.world)

Story time! We recently bought a rural property with a burnt down house on it and are going up every few weekends to clean it up. I’m up there this morning picking up random sheet metal and yeeting it into the trash pile. Suddenly I hear frantic squeaks…I look, and I accidentally yeeted the cover of a squirrel nest (I think...

sorry, but i tend to downvote intrusive thoughts

should have written “can piss while operating tank” at the end

halvar ,

May I ask what does it do?

halvar ,

This feels like cosmic horror for some reason.

halvar ,

I mean I know people who have a lot of ansible knowledge and they were always like “yeah sure it’s declarative, you can ensure files are the correct version and stuff”, but that’s so far away that is from what NixOS does (unless I misunderstood something). I mean, the same task can be accomplished alright, but it’s a bit like writing your own NixOS.

Not being allergic to finely graded rocks that have been bathing in radiation for billions of years seems more unlikely.

I was thinking green, but than I realized that’s biology for sure

I used arch btw until i switched to nixos fr. Kind of like a splinter group, a cult if you would. Less aur. More flakes. Still mostly unusable.

halvar ,

Since I switched just a month or two ago yesterday was flakes-figuring-out-day for me. It’s terrible in the sense, that the first thing I had to do was actually figure out what flakes even do and what is it you can use them for. The guides didn’t help a lot because they assumed I alreary knew that. I think I understand now, but there is an offchance I got it compeletly wrong and that bothers me.

halvar ,

Faults may be found in the reasoning, but even with that, this may just be the truth.

halvar ,

Nuh-uh. Organic/long established ethnostates may be frowned upon, but if they close off their borders to preserve their identity, that’s their right, since I belive in the self-determination of peoples.

It is arguable though, whether these even exist right now, or are there only nation-states and some wannabe ethnostates.

Trying to violently establish an ethnostate is of course something I cannot agree with.

halvar ,
  1. Ethnicity totally can be part of an identity, but that doesn’t mean you have to hate anyone.
  2. Don’t misunderstand “closing off borders”. Making the people stay is not okay. Not letting the people that left back is also not okay. Not letting in a different ethnicity? Arguably racist, but I wouldn’t count not letting them into your country as oppression. I’m a christian, so I can’t visit Mecca, yet I don’t feel oppressed.
  3. That’s why I said “long established” and that’s why I pointed out that those aren’t many. I don’t think the violence you’d have to use to establish an ethnostate is in any way acceptable. If the ethnostate already stands though, you may use certain tools to preserve it, which are not many and are usually “not enough”.

My take wasn’t that ethnostates are good, but that they are not inherently bad either, it’s just the tools usually used to establish and preserve them that we must condemn.

Been using Firefox for what I think is 2 years now, haven’t had any major problems as far as I recall.

I may just have forgot how to english, because I don’t understand this at all

Should have watched Doctor Who then.

Dunno, imagined something like Kowloon Walled City.

halvar ,

Sadly it was torn down once it’s enclave status ceased, but if you want to see how it could have looked like from the inside Stray has a very similar atmosphere.
