Good for her for knowing who she is and taking a stand. But is there any depth here?
Did Vivian do anything BESIDES come out as transfem bi blonde brunette pro sci fi fitchic that makes her notably distanced from her fuck knuckle father?
There’s a weird allocation of “default points” that you apparently get for being gay or bi or trans but it doesn’t seem to be based on… Anything? Vivian is not in the news for opposing her dad or having a good stance or anything besides being born and feeling like her equipment doesn’t match her identity. Did I miss something about her fighting her dad about big issues?

There is no universal measure or INTELLIGENCE. IQ can absolutely be measured but the question is whether or not it’s representative of something we care about. The fact that you open with “dumb” them say something that is patently incorrect is insanely on the nose.
I agree, let’s give more voting power to people who are more likely to have made more considered choices and stop pretending like every vote is the same. Far and away most people are not so bright. In the same way that BMI is not a good measure of health, IQ is not a good measure of intelligence. On the borderline it means nothing, but a BMI of 200 is not good and neither is an IQ of 74 and I’m all for screening at that quality.
In the late 18th century US it made sense to make everyone equal and every vote equal (leaving aside slavery and gender inequality) because by and large access to information and education WAS equal. In the end of 2025, that is unfortunately just not true. People and opinions are striated and that is worth some consideration.

That’s fine, I now own both and I can say objectively that LG is way worse to work with and Sony has been easy.
- Comment on LG Update Installs Unremovable Microsoft Copilot on Smart TVs, Ignites Backlash 1 week ago:
Some best buy asshole convinced me to buy LG this last time because “it’s the same screen as the bravia, but lower price so you can get the sound bar too!”. Yeah fuck that, Sony doesn’t jerk me around. WebOS doesnt even fucking WORK unless you agree to every sharing option and update. Next time I’ll just pay the extra.

New pipe, smart tube, vanced, etc etc. there are about 15 options before I would pay even 1 extra dollar to Google. Every TV manufacturer seems to still have a working option.
If none of those work, I can honestly just do without.
- Comment on Actual theft 1 week ago:
Yeah that is definitely against the grain for me.
I pay for Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon prime, but never in life will I pay for YouTube premium. I have Google one and I pay enough for it. There are plenty of apps that still deliver an ad free, promotion free, bullshit free experience and the fact that Google works so hard to fuck with it makes me even less likely to ever pay.
Paying for YouTube would be like paying for tiktok or whatever dumb shit video service people watch now. It just isn’t going to happen. I will use the service for free, find the content for free, or else it will get cut from the lineup.
Pay for YouTube… Lol no way.

- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 3 weeks ago:
Yes but only for the paid version which I don’t have so I can’t vouch. I’m cheap in that way
- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 3 weeks ago:
The main advantage is, if you keep a lot of “bookmarks” (which I don’t, but I like to be prepared) they are searchable not just by name, but also by tag.
This means when you find that good stack overflow page about resolving cuda issues on a VM you can tag it as “linux” “python” “cuda” “VM” in addition to giving it a name. Then you can search for any of those and find it.
The free version is pretty good and it lets you do one level of folders and as many bookmarks as you want. (Oh yeah. It supports folders so I have one for example that is called Unwatched YouTube, you might guess what I use it for). The paid version is probably better because it includes unlimited folder nesting AND it saves a snapshot of whatever webpage you’re bookmarking so you never lose anything. I would think this would be indespensible if you habitually save things like reddit or Lemmy threads so it doesn’t get deleted from under you.
I don’t use raindrop.io as much as I would like, but I would assume it’s a far cry better than a browser with 200 tabs open.
- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 3 weeks ago:
Idk it’s crazy to see the browser windows of some teammates during screen share.
Read the thing, write down the relevant stuff / copy it to reference notes, bookmark it with raindrop or something that allows you to tag for context, close the whole browser.

I’m sure it’s tough to be neurodivergent, and there are plenty neurotypical folks who would like to understand and make your life easier. I would also like to understand and support other minority positions, and every one is an investment of time and effort.

It is UNUSUAL for an element to not be either hydrogen or helium. There is nothing wrong with it. It is simultaneously totally OK, an ABSOLUTE MINORITY position, and notably UNUSUAL considering statistical evaluation.
You can ascribe whatever meaning to that you want, but it is not a statistically typical position to be an element that is not hydrogen, not helium, and… Well… It’s also pretty unusual to have extra neutrons or something and be BETWEEN hydrogen and helium.
Again, this is TOTALLY FINE. And it is accurate in other hypothetical contexts which are in no way being referenced here. These group sizes are, of course, in no way the same.
It’s not super uncommon to change from hydrogen to helium, but in other contexts… Yes it is. Still totally fine.
Everybody is just getting along the best he/she/they can, but PEOPLE have rights, we don’t need to argue for rights by common-washing. It ain’t common.

Happy cake day. I was asking, before I dive into the hunt, if you saw any docs for doing the same sort of firmware update / swap for plain old irobot vacuums.
Idk how motivated to be to go do this. Just started reading about valetudo.

Except that doesn’t make any sense because you wouldn’t change the name of the thing that inspires the naming of the new thing.
Otherwise it’s not a “frunk” it’s a “frobrunk” and then it’s not a “brunk” either it’s a “bafrobrunk” and on and on.

One of you or your siblings has to be married.
It otherwise doesn’t work: brother/sister in law wouldn’t exist. Unless siblings marry siblings, there’s no other way to create that link if you all habe tobbe married.
