Never dehumanize fascists or fascist-sympathizers (redundant but ok), it's always important to remember that bad faith actors or their stooges are human and cannot be entirely eliminated from society, which is why people that fight for positive change have to set the rules such that bad faith actors' actions are either quickly recognized and mitigated, or have society structured such that even those motivated solely by unempathetic selfishness can only achieve status by masking and contributing positively anyway.

Yep, my point being that a trans man (AFAB) and a cis man (AMAB) both have their bed nucleus of the stria terminalis roughly the same size, twice the size of a woman's. A woman's is half the size of a man's, regardless of whether she's trans (AMAB) or cis (AFAB). So regardless of what the gender is assigned at birth, the relative size of the bed nucleus predicts the gender that the individual feels most comfortable as.

Their bed nucleus of the stria terminalis should be twice as large as a woman's, and that's what guided their gender identities. Not that I'm a biological determinist, just a strict physicalist with no belief in metaphysical choice superceding determinism, but a lot of times the brain's development has recursive feedback loops such that smaller choices early on can alter the size of brain structures along with sex hormones and the development environment in the womb or even outside of it for a while, the earlier the more significant. All I know is that the size of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis is pretty consistently twice the size in men as it is in women regardless of the gender assigned at birth.

I call it asocial media, personally.

Nah, you can enroll your own keys and set it up so you can be reasonably certain that your boot image hasn't been altered, validating its integrity against the potential threat of bootkits. I do this with my Gentoo install.

Isn't post-quantum cryptography already a thing? Probably not implemented in anything meaningful yet, but still.

Is the reference frame the CMB? You'd think you could just choose the reference frame at that point and move however you want, but arguing the physics of hypothetical metaphysical beings probably doesn't make much sense.

I mean, you can still do that with https, your dns requests will likely still be in the clear unless you're using dns over tls or dns over https.

I would agree with you that something similar to metric would eventually arise, but I would consider duodecimal to make more sense than decimal, as 12 is a superior highly composite number and the terminating representation is much shorter for more commonly used fractions (e.g. 1⁄4 would be represented as 0.3, 1⁄3 as 0.4, 1⁄2 as 0.6, etc). I would also argue that groupings in powers of 12² make more sense than 10³.

I would also argue that it would make more sense for measurements to be based on natural units (such as Planck length) for all the basic measurements (second, metre, kilogram, ampere, kelvin, mole, and candela), such that the anthropic unit (the one you'd most commonly refer to without prefixes) would be some multiple of 12 away from the natural unit.

Sounds painful with a high possibility of breaking bones then drowning while conscious. I'd recommend an inert gas that's not CO2 and readily available, like nitrogen or something (CO2 buildup in the blood is what gives the sensation of suffocation). If you're worried about people finding you and a mess, get an enema and stay a bit dehydrated first, and also ensure your body's found within the first 2-3 days if possible (the first thing your corpse does is shit itself, and rot sets in pretty quickly).

This of course presumes you're making the decision to end yourself while of sound mind, not in some panic, feeling trapped or completely hopeless. There's usually a way out that's not as permanent and can lead to future positive interactions that make continued living worth the pain. That said, I'll never judge someone whose pain outweighs their will to live.

Mine is IBM Plex Mono, but the nerdfont 'Blex' variety.
