reposting here because someone sent this to me and i realised how much i needed it actually
a twitter post reading: if you're ever doubting that you may actually be trans, and are considering hrt, wanting to try it, or on hrt. when those doubts hit, just know that i offered a single oestrogen pill to my guy friends in the pub, and every one of them physically recoiled in horror.

KNVB kiest Eurojackpot als nieuwe sponsor, terwijl politiek de gokindustrie en voetbal juist wil scheiden

Sponsoring: De afgelopen jaren zijn tal van maatregelen genomen om de aanwezigheid van gokbedrijven in de sport te verkleinen: geen sponsordeals meer en geen bekende Nederlanders. Toch kiest de KNVB nu een loterij als nieuwe hoofdsponsor.

Installing #linux #mint on a #virtualbox #windows10 host. I don't have enough space so I quit the install, free up ~10 GB, try again. The install doesn't see the freed up space.

How do I make the install process see the freed up space?

If you think you know how evil people think, think again.

Evil people get called that because they managed to surpass in their malice what people couldn’t even fathom.

You don’t know how evil people think. Don’t even start. Assume they’re beyond the ranges of malice you could even conceive.

Well this note I just read after the Vox article that Trump Adminstration now asking SCOTUS to allow deportations without due process AND allow deportations where there is likely to be torture. “Surpassing in their malice what people can’t even fathom”. Indeed.

I'm hoping the internet might be able to help me.

My favourite pen, ever, was a Papermate FelxGrip Ultra MED in Purple, which I bought from the student's union in Huddersfield about 20 years ago.
I've lost it about 10 years ago (i changed the ink inside of it many times), but I've never forgotten about my favourite pen and i deeply regret ever losing it. I've found pictures of it online but it seems out of stock everywhere. If you can help me get another one just like it, I would be ever grateful. I've attached a picture of what it looks like (though I think mine might have had a black cap, but im not THAT picky). Please! help me find my pen!

A Pen! Specifically A Papermate FelxGrip Ultra MED in Purple, featuring a removable cap. This is the best pen in the world. I've tested many others, but none of them measure up to this workhorse.

it really looks like it may have been discontinued. If you can get to someone who *likes* pens at Paper Mate you might be able to work it out. That *colour* sort of exists but not the pen?

@voltagex To be honest with you, even when I had it the original ink ran out within a year of getting it. After that I replaced the ink with the more common blue colour salvaged from the clicky verity. It was the purple shell that made it special! I will reach out to them directly. Thank you.

La start-up britannique Builder.ai, valorisée à 1,5 milliard de dollars, a fait faillite après la découverte d'une fraude massive. Son intelligence artificielle révolutionnaire "Natasha" cachait en réalité 700 développeurs indiens.

@nitot Des revenus gonflés par de fausses factures, c'est ce dont parle un peu l'article de RTS sans donner de détails.

Généralement, les Décrypteurs font un très bon travail d'enquête sur le sujet qu’ils abordent et font des corrections s'ils n’ont pas été exacts.

this means that when I meet someone wearing those glasses I can safely break them if I want to opt out of face recognition? Or at least seize them and delete my data?

Das Bild zeigt einen animierten Charakter mit einem breiten, freudigen Lächeln und einem selbstsicheren Ausdruck. Er hat kurze, blonde Haare und trägt eine breite, beige Sonnenmütze mit einem roten Band. Seine Kleidung besteht aus einem roten Anzug mit einem weißen Hemd und einem roten Krawatten. Der Charakter steht vor einem blauen Hintergrund, der an eine Wand oder eine Tafel erinnert. Seine Hände sind auf seinen Hüften, was seine selbstbewusste Haltung unterstreicht.
