Honestly you should ! Unless you want to do crazy stuff you actually don’t need to learn the entire documentation.

I was able to setup full disk encryption with encrypted boot loader pretty easily, there are great tutorials out there. I’m going to figure out Secure Boot next.

The nice thing is that once you’ve managed to do something, it’s in your config forever. My main problem with Arch was the absence of rollbacks, and having to remember all the stuff you do when installing it that you inevitably forget before the next time your system breaks and needs a reinstall. There’s none of that with Nix, and it’s awesome.

Now I’m not a shill but I did switch from Arch to Nix (because my Bluetooth was irremediably broken on Arch, and no one responded to any of my posts) and it’s honestly a lot less complicated than the documentation suggests 😆

The config file thing works better for NixOS, but the même is still very funny !

Sounds like family planning ? At least ours is kinda like that ! (I’m French)

What even is a teen center ?

I don’t know if this applies to all or even most other autistic people, but my autism has almost been exclusively positive for me.

Really the only negative thing that ever happens is people being mean or making fun of me because I don’t understand the social rules. But it happens less and less as I both learn the rules and frequent more mature people who don’t care if you’re slightly awkward and don’t always know how to end a conversation 🤷🏻‍♀️

Autism is not a handicap in my case. Not even slightly.

Either they think they’re better than everyone else, or they hate themselves and project ?

That’s why I personally try very hard to only rely on POSIX stuff, even when it’s massively inconvenient. The only thing I haven’t gotten around to replacing yet is GNU make.

Does it ? I thought it was never completed !

On the other hand, if you want a microkernel that does exist, there’s Mach. But I don’t think you can replace Linux with it 😆

But 1:1 is technically a scale !

This is pointless nitpicking. I agree with the definition, but presenting it this way is not useful. None of them think menopause removes your sex, that is not what anyone means by “sex change”. Not us, not them. I’m not lending credence to anything.

“Sex” as it is usually defined is the ability to either be fertilized and bear children, or fertilize someone who can. To my knowledge, no human who has ever possessed either ability has ever possessed the other one. We are getting close to making one of those possible, though (in the MtF direction).

This is what they mean when they say sex can’t change, and this is what they think you’re telling them is possible.

The other things you mention, which may scientifically be part of sex, is not what anyone means in casual conversation. Those may change, voluntarily or not, yes. But the main thing people mean when they talk about someone’s “sex” cannot change yet, although it can be lost, or never obtained at all.

Gotta sell those climate un-changing pills somehow 🤷🏻‍♀️

Being trans myself, I will gladly tell you no one can change their biological sex yet (meaning, reproductive sex). I do hope science gets there though !

I don’t even think anyone can change their gender ! Some people’s gender changes on its own, but I’ve just always been a woman ; and most trans people are like me.

The thing we actually disagree about is whether someone’s gender and biological sex can be separate. But it’s just a scientific fact that they are.

I always patch them with cobblestone so next time they only break the surface !

I would do obsidian but I have better things to do than mine obsidian 😂

“Let’s-a-go !” 🍄

zswap is broken right now anyway, can’t use it on encrypted disks (which every disk should always be)

Rule 6: Unreal does the same thing, everyone switches to Godot 😂
