Chatgpt is wrong here, sex is more like a series of bimodal bell curves measuring traits like gonad type, chromosomes, hormone levels, secondary sex characteristics, neurobiology, and probably some more I'm forgetting. For each trait, one bimodal peak can be labeled something like "typically male" and the other "typically female". For instance, hormones would have "higher testosterone" for one peak and "higher estrogen" for the other. You can usually categorize male vs female by weighing where an animal falls on these bell curves across all traits, but that's more of an art than a science, since the scientific perspective is more "sex is a composite profile" than "sex is a binary to be categorized".

That's why you always hear people say 'it's a spectrum" or "it's socially constructed", because that's the easiest way to explain it in simple terms (even if it is non-descriptive and annoying to hear as a shibboleth)

It was an online instant message, not a phone message. That would be illegal where I live, too.

Relatable, my mom got a cancer diagnosis from an automated message through her healthcare portal. Their offices were closed and she wasn't able to ask any questions about it until the next day. She just knew she had some type of breast cancer, but nothing else, for that whole time. Only other time I've seen her cry that hard is when her dad died.

Man, I wouldn't even eat that shit fresh. Are you from the US? I've heard their quality is better in other countries, but here it's disgusting.

The article seems to actually be about how media like anime can be used as a tool to help therapy patients break through mental barriers to treatment by helping normalize or explain concepts that might be unfamiliar to them. Unless I'm misunderstanding?

The inside and outside of all drumsticks are chocolate-coated. They put it in their ads and in their packaging so I'm not sure how it surprised you. If you don't want that, then maybe try a different product lol.

You think this is old? Where are the stone tablets with chisels? Kids the days...

Too many vegetables? No such thing. Just means it isn't traditional but I'm sure it's still delish!

I feel like it also put heavy emphasis on being fun first compared to previous films, but yeah it's still the same Marvel style of humor.

If anyone finds this, the solution I ended up going with was to just make it a part of a startup bash script and put it in the file system of the ISO so it runs on login for every user. Couldn't figure out how to put it in the preseed.

Same guy here. Looked it up and no. My info was out of date.

 

I’m working on a custom Linux Mint ISO (using Cubic) for a dedicated system with auto-login. I’m trying to automate Vino (VNC server) setup during installation using preseed, but I’m running into two issues:

  1. Changing Vino settings in preseed commands

I need to set org.gnome.Vino authentication-methods to ['vnc'] for the autologin user. I’ve tried variations of:

in-target su -c "gsettings set org.gnome.Vino authentication-methods \"['vnc']\"" username

But the setting doesn’t persist. I’ve also tested in-target sh -c and direct gsettings calls without luck.

What’s the correct way to apply gsettings changes for a specific user during preseed?

  1. Autostarting Vino Server

I need /usr/lib/vino/vino-server to start automatically after login. Since this is an auto-login system, I’d prefer a method that:

  • Works via preseed (e.g., adding to startup apps).
  • Can be toggled later via Cinnamon’s startup settings (if possible).

What’s the best way to set this up? .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart/? Or another approach? Preferably, it would be more easily configurable in userspace, but if this is the only option then I understand.

 

I think maybe because they had a command with su but I have no way of knowing. Seems extremely stupid that you can be banned for posting Linux commands to a Linux subreddit.

 
 

I'm procrastinating at work and installing random packages with CLI that are just fun to mess with. Recently I've been looking up all my co-workers with Sherlock, just for fun. Does anyone else have CLI stuff that they like to screw with when they're bored?

 

I took this at Muskallonge State Park in Michigan. It's the only place within a few hundred miles of my house that's Bortle class 1, meaning zero light pollution. It was fantastic and I absolutely want to go back sometime.

 

Thinking about this because of a greentext I saw earlier complaining about OF models.

It feels like a lot of the stigma surrounding sex work in the modern day (that doesn't just boil down to misogyny/gender norms/religion) is based on the fact that selling intimate aspects of one's self places a set value on something that many see as sacred; something that shouldn't have monetary value.

Not to say anything about the economic validity of a society without currency, but I think that, hypothetically, if that were to exist, sex work would be less stigmatized since this would no longer be a factor. Those engaged in sex work would be more likely to be seen as doing it because it's something they are good at/enjoy, and less because it's an "easy" way to make money, as some think. It would also eliminate the fear of placing set value on social, non sex-work related intimacy (not that those fears were well-founded to begin with).

 

Found this in the middle of nowhere in Kentucky on a road trip.

 

I've been having pre-carpal tunnel symptoms lately and I really want to switch to a vertical mouse, but I've heard from a lot of people that they just don't have the same sensory quality that you get with a traditional mid-high end gaming mouse. This would be an issue for me since constantly do quick flicks and don't think I can just tollerate an inferior sensor. Does anyone have experience with this sort of thing, and if so do you have any good recommendations?
