That's a B-class my friend :) the Z-class has a much narrower end, plus the trams number is in that range.

You're absolutely correct there. My issue is that I feel like so many of us are almost giving in to the desires of those that spread misinformation, and becoming completely cynical towards anything that's shared online. A healthy amount of skepticism is required. Asking yourself "what does this person gain here if they're lying" and if that answer is "some notes on tumblr" then I'd personally rather choose to believe them. To instead get to have the positive feelings that post provides. Rather than dwell on it and believe that all of humanity are dishonest and disingenuous.
That's just my two cents.

- yeah, i think most people do a single entry per page, no matter the length. that's not uncommon for a journal
- none of these words are particularly complex
- the author's age is unknown
- i'd rather choose to take people at face value until given a reason otherwise

- There's an older comment in this thread that details how you could verify those blobs: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/14458323
- You very much implied that you shouldn't trust all people of Chinese descent. I personally very much dislike the CCP, as a government I think they cause an immeasurable amount* of harm. However, what you are suggesting is on the same level of racism as the US government locking up all Japanese-Americans in internment camps during WWII.
- Seriously, calm down.

Yeah absolutely this. I've seen too often in trans spaces when these sorts of accidents aren't given any leeway or grace. We're all human though, and it bothers me when folks are put down when there was zero malicious intent.
My mum deadnamed me more recently, despite me being out for almost eight years now. But she called me my older brother's name first, then deadname, then Norah. She was mortified, and apologised profusely. How could I hold any ill will against her for that?

Oh god no! Not tape hun, that sounds awful. They're a style of compression underwear. Think a binder for your junk: https://origamicustoms.com/collections/compression-gaffs
Edit: Origami Customs is also the company that partners with Point of Pride to provide the free gaffs I mentioned in my previous comment.

Gaff is the usual term for these, and yeah that's what I came to the comment section to mention too. If you can't afford one (anyone reading) then Point of Pride has a program to get a free one: https://www.pointofpride.org/free-femme-shapewear

Yes, and in the last twelve months those discussions clearly accelerated, and that post made it clear the lead/original dev had made their mind up. Which very much negates you saying this was rushed.

Here's a post from May in the Minetest Luanti forums discussing the name change: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?p=425205#p425205
I'm not going to search further to find the original discussion, but another user in this thread mentions seeing talk of this about a year ago. I agree that it's not very professional for the new website to be in a less than functional state, but it feels like excitement or decision fatigue may be the culprit, not a rushed process. Then again, it's an open source video game, not everything has to be "professional" all the time. Meanwhile, enjoy this meme from luanti.org:

Okay... So it sounds like a dead project to me? When Luanti seems to have a huge community around it already...

Okay, but openblox.org doesn't resolve a website at all, directing users instead to a domain registrar.

Cool so, you linked to some git repositories that haven't been updated in 4-5 years, and looking at their current website there seems to be some sort of crypto involved now.

Except, that doesn't happen in Australia. Places will "bulk bill" to be competitive, aiming for volume to make their profits.
Otherwise, good luck convincing those politicians to transition to a fully nationalised system I guess. I just strongly believe that's never going to happen in the US, and that something is better than nothing. If we can't even manage that in Australia, what hope do you all have?

The point of my comment is that doing it that way would be far more likely to actually be supported in the US politics, given the current state of their system. It feels like so many people there want to skip straight to single-payer. Having that goal is counter-productive, it's never going to happen.

This take really completely misses the point of my comment. US doctors still make much more money than UK ones who work under the NHS. Obviously insurance companies and hospital administration make the vast majority of it. They can safely be ignored if you were transitioning the system, as they provide literally no value. If you try and pay all the doctors less though, and they revolt, you won't have anyone to do the actual work.
I was banned from lemmy.world for “personal attacks” for 3 days because of calling someone a “piece of shit” after they called me a “cunt”. The comment calling me a cunt wasn’t removed and the user hasn’t been punished at all by the lemmy.world admins. The comments in question:  Lemmy.world modlog:   In the interest of full disclosure, this is my other comment that was removed:  And here’s the comment of that user I was referencing, in the Blahaj modlog after it was removed:  This feels like an overreach, especially when the admin clearly didn’t feel it was important to punish their own user for “personal attacks” in the same thread.
please don’t start shit in the comments, i’m too disabled to care
Hey friends, I see you just pushed another test flight build, cheers for all the new updates. However, I just tried changing the App Icon and it doesn’t work at all, just stays on the default one. I tried a bunch to see if it was just one of them glitching out, but none of them work.
It’s just an instance of reposting reddit links. These showed up in my All feed sorted by Hot even though there’s zero interaction. It just feels like spam.
I’m on an instance that has downvotes disabled, and I’m wondering if we could add an option to hide the downvote button from the UI when the signed in instance has it disabled. I’ve changed the swipe so it doesn’t have the downvote, but it still shows up in the feed. As well it could be nice to have a setting for an alternate to the downvote swipe so that auto-changes depending on instance as well.
       [@DroneRights@lemm.ee](https://lemm.ee/u/DroneRights) I’m a chaser and came on to you? Despite telling you I had a partner in the same message? I’m sorry, but you’re just not that interesting. It was a joke because you had a PM_ME username. But yeah, now you’ve accused a trans person of being a chaser. What next? I’m glad the 196 mods saw through your application, yikes. [@HardlightCereal@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/u/HardlightCereal) [@HardlightCereal@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/u/HardlightCereal) [@PM_ME_FAT_ENBIES@lemmy.blahaj.zone](https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/u/PM_ME_FAT_ENBIES) [@clueless_stoner@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/u/clueless_stoner) [@poVoq@slrpnk.net](https://slrpnk.net/u/poVoq) You all need to sort this out because I am **livid** at being accused of being a bloody chaser by some troll when I’m a trans woman, then getting a permanent ban from lemmy.world for trying to alert the admin of a third instance. Clueless Stoner? You sure are, you make us other stoners look switched on by comparison.
I’m on a server that has downvotes disabled. I’m wondering if we can get an update that hides the downvote button/slide when it’s disabled? I accidentally press it 2-3 times per day and the error dialogue can be frustrating. I was thinking there could be an option for what to replace the ‘slide right to downvote’ shortcut with when it’s hidden. Such as share or copy link.

So at the moment, when you share a post, you get a link to the post on the instance the communities on. Obviously, you aren’t always sharing links with people that are also on your instance, so this behaviour is usually fine. But I have a few friends on my local instance, so it would be nice to be able to link them directly. Maybe having the options be Local/Remote/Ask, with a little options list each time if people want that.
It's a personal mash-up of the Agender, Intersex and Transgender symbols, and a little bit of inspiration from dog desexing tattoos. I'd been questioning since late puberty if I might be Intersex, I never grew an Adam's apple and hardly any body hair despite family genetics. I came out as trans femme non-binary in my early 20s, but it wasn't until the third doctor I saw for hormones that questioned if I might have an intersex condition. The first doctor I saw never questioned that my T was well below the male range because I wanted to start HRT anyway. But he also still put me on T-blockers which have some awful side-effects, including dropping my T to completely zero. Thankfully I'm off those these days and estrogen alone keeps my T where it needs to be. The last test that she ran was for sterility, so the day I got that result was when I got my official diagnosis. I'd never really wanted kids of my own, and didn't worry when starting HRT, but it still really shook me to learn that I'm not able too. Hence, I dropped into my local tattoo parlour with a rough sketch, because the adrenaline and pain from that helped me deal with my emotions in a more healthy way. Anyway, hi, I'm Norah and that's my story :)
> A documentary about the first Mardi Gras parade in Sydney, Australia. I found a copy of this earlier in the year and posted it on archive.org. **Content Warning for police brutality.** cross-posted from: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/1330288 I'm cross-posting this here as I thought this community might find it interesting as well. I think the [way I procured it](https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/comment/1493336) also leads to a bigger discussion about the preservation of queer film & media. I think it's important, now more than ever, for younger and freshly realised queer people to see that we've been here and fighting for our rights for a really long. Videos like this one feel like they evoke a more visceral connection to that past.
So the how-to I promised in my last post: 1. Install the `neonmodem` package under your default WSL distro. I'm using Debian. You've got to move the executable to your /bin/ folder. 2. Go to your Windows Terminal settings and click on 'Add a new profile'. Duplicate your default profile. 3. Rename the profile to 'Neon Modem Overdrive'. You can download the favicon from https://neonmodem.com/favicon.png 4. Under 'Command line' you want to change it to show as below. This will launch it within it's own tab, and will close out when you quit NMO. ``` C:\Windows\system32\wsl.exe ~ --shell-type login neonmodem ``` 5. Under 'Additional settings' at the bottom, click on 'Appearance'. 6. I'm using the 'Vintage' colour scheme, and have the 'Retro terminal effects' setting enabled for those crispy old scanline vibes.
