Trans people are literally just trying to get on with their lives while bigots obsess about them.

The same type of people said the same things about women getting the vote, interracial couples, and homosexuality.

I hope history continues to move in the right direction and leave these nosey fucks as nothing more than shameful memories.

“But he didn’t win, the election was stolen”

You can never hold a narcissist to their word; they’d sooner warp the fabric of reality to match their narrative than be wrong.

Merry Christmas is a popular expression in the UK too.

I think that merriment is actually much easier to attain than happiness. One could be miserable in life, but have a few drinks and be merry.

Any platform has vulnerability to exploit to some degree. But this article is about piggybacking on the Find My network to transmit data without actually compromising the network. It’s a clever technique, and worth reading more than the headline.

Some people guide their behaviour by a sense of morality.

Others are guided by the threat of authority.

This used to happen to me regularly with a Dell panel. It would turn anything white pink. I found creating a custom colour profile and playing around with it until the whites were white again solved it. Then occasionally it would decide to revert to the default colour profile for no reason.

Stupidly frustrating but I’m passing on the tip incase it helps.

Fascinating, thanks for sharing!

The meat industry is a huge driver of climate change. If you don’t want to stop eating meat, you can also choose to eat meat from local farmers. It will probably mean eating less of it, because sustainably farmed meat is necessarily expensive.

If it’s trained on the average Reddit reply: $420.69, nice.

I built my family tree and thought - oh neat, even more ancestors to disappoint.

Just to add some cool etymology to your reply: the word silhouette comes from a type of affordable portrait made by quickly painting or cutting out a persons profile in black paper. These, and portrait miniatures, fell quickly out of favour with the advent of photography.

The word silhouette is derived from the name of Étienne de Silhouette, a French finance minister who, in 1759, was forced by France's credit crisis during the Seven Years' War to impose severe economic demands upon the French people, particularly the wealthy.[3] Because of de Silhouette's austere economies, his name became synonymous with anything done or made cheaply and so with these outline portraits.[4][5] Prior to the advent of photography, silhouette profiles cut from black card were the cheapest way of recording a person's appearance.[6][7]

This is also an interesting article on the subject of pre-photographic portraiture: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portrait_miniature

That pup looks like they’re into craft beer and bands you won’t have heard of.

Tip of the iceberg. I’m perplexed about every 30 minutes working on this codebase.

You have piqued my interest on the thing of milk binding up beneficial chemicals. Can you elaborate?

Well this seems like a thread to put some of those photos.

He’s handsome! I also have a Romanian street dog mutt who got returned before I adopted her. She’s a weirdo but in a great-when-you-get-to-know-her kind of way.

Oh ouch. Haven’t experienced that.

🛼 Yeah, RISC is good ⚗️🔥

Thanks for taking the time to write that! I learned something new today. I usually take tea with oat milk, so now I’m curious what proteins oat milk has and if they act similarly. I’ll do some more reading.

Some people even put the milk in first.
