That is an incredibly frustrating email to have received. One thing really stands out to me though:

You have lived in a very privileged, unusual time

That privilege may be over.

It’s not a fucking privilege! It’s a basic human right!

On a more fundamental level though, she’s clearly scared, and I don’t blame her. But ye, her conclusions about what to do about that are bass ackwards.

I remember the Wallace & Gromit doco about this…

It seems like no matter which way this election goes, it’s going to be an absolute shit show. (which is no excuse to not vote, just so we’re clear)

Thanks. I was really just wondering why all the standalone ui’s were so similar, which I think you’ve answered. I’ve heard of emudeck, but not tried it. Will give it a look

THERE… ARE… THREE… R’s IN STRAWBERRY

I do worry about that.

It theoretically shouldn’t be a problem here. We’re listed as each others primary emergency contacts, and we’ve been together longer than 2 years, which over here grants you most of the same privileges as marriage anyway. So it hopefully won’t be an issue. I just hope we never have to test that.

Actually, where I know it will matter is if one of us had to die unexpectedly, but that can be negated by just having a proper will drawn up… which, come to think of it, we should really do…

My partner is not a girl, she’s a woman, and she more than a friend to me. She is my partner in life. So yes, it is more formal than “girlfriend.” That’s the point.

And no, I won’t marry her. We’re not religious, and we don’t believe the government should have any input in our relationship. We’ll happily have a ceremony, but she will still be my partner at the end of it.

The mindset of the whole Israeli government is pretty astounding. It’s like they feel entitled to do what they’re doing, and anyone who vaguely hints at “maybe genocide isn’t your strongest play?” is vilified. Israel is always the victim, no matter who or what is being done. It has strong “the left stole the election” vibes

Didn’t that come from 4chan? The pooper of the internet? No wonder it was filled with sharpies

If they are capable of giving consent, they are capable of activating the system themselves.

You’re thinking of a big red push button, but a button can be a pad that you bite down on, or a eye twitch activated electrode, or any number of things.

The important thing is they initiate the process themselves, so that they have the option to withdraw consent as easily as they gave it.

True consent is not immutable.

It’s assisted in the sense that a doctor can help them insert an IV, load up the correct drugs, make sure they understand the procedure, and monitor to ensure it goes smoothly, but the patient themselves need to press the button that releases the drugs (or nitrogen in the sarco pods case)

I think they start on 0 here though. Reddit automatically upvotes your own posts, but not here

worst Bethesda DLC’s released of all time

Are we including Horse Armor here?

Looks like it supports a decent amount of features. Needs to be transferred from a windows install though

Because Wallpaper Engine lets you do a hell of a lot more than just static images. It’s exactly what it says on the tin. A software engine that you can set as a wallpaper. Think video wallpapers, touch effects, audio responsiveness, or straight up fully rendered 3D environments *

* I have no idea how much of this actually works on Android. I’ve only used it on PC

Make good, free games. I want to be financially stable enough that I can just make cool stuff and give it away, and not worry about trying to monetize it, or protect it from pirates. I just want to create for the sake of creating. I’ve got no interest in starting a business/company/indie studio/whatever the fuck else it is people think I should be doing. Added bonus, if anybody ever takes issue with something I’ve made, I can happily tell them where to stick it. It’s free, you have no right to complain

It’s just a rom hack, so I don’t see why not?
