As a workaround with the default directory fuckery, I always just made new ones.

I’m not confident my tax documents aren’t saved to my dektop.

I usually air gap onto an external disk, but I’ve been busy recently.

No I fucking don’t

Look to nature. Butterfly wing patterns.

By the way (you’re quicker than duckduckgoing) Are you able to view and export password in plain text if you want to discontinue using the firefox password manager?

I’ve resisted using password managers up to this point, but it’s getting to be a pain

Can I get “Frost guard socks of the wintery north”?

My feet are basically made of ice.

Ah, so because I am a transgender woman, I am a Roman!

We contract for a regional bank and we use a Vigenère cipher to store passwords

I have successfully disageed with the Blahaj admin about this issue and I remain unbanned.

The problem is that we do not want to spend our entire life “influencing” others. The admin of Blahaj specifically made the instance in order to be a place where we don’t have to deal with that burden.

If you want to go deal with transphobic fucktards and try to advocate for tolerance then you go right ahead. No one is stopping you.

I couldn’t agree more (Also, for formality: I dislike you)

Anyway, this wrong loser is right: If you’re not going to vibe with the place, it’s not a big deal if you’re not welcomed. The beauty of the fediverse is that the admin of blahaj, who is quite open about their zero tolerance of nontolerance policy, does not have the capability to ban you from lemmy.

Like, if you were dating a chick who you weren’t compatible with, why the hell would you want to stick around? Accept the incompatibility and move on.

Step 1: go to a trans instance.

Step 2: Tell them that the supporters of a party that wants to erradicate them aren’t so bad.

Step 3: ???

Step 4: Whine about how they banned you.

Read the room smart guy. It ain’t a site wide ban anyhow.

I think you’re close to grasping my point. We, as people, determine whether someone is male or female based off of things other than chromosomes.

We, as average people conducting our daily lives, do not observe chromosomes.

The word “sex” is made up just as much as the word “ten” is made up; it describes a concept. In this way, the meanings of both words are socially constructed even if they describe something in reality.

Because you, as an average person, do not observe chromosomes then you, as an average person, do not use the words male and female to describe chromosomes. You are describing something else. People have used the word “sex” to refer to a concept which has existed long before chromosomes were discovered.

So please engage with some introspection and tell me what YOU mean when you say sex. I am not defining the word, and I’m not asking you to accept anyone’s definition but your own. What concept are you ACTUALLY describing when you say you’re female? Have you gotten your genome sequenced?

No, chromosomes do not determine your sex.

In a lab, depending on the species involved reproductive cells might exchange information and cells with certain chromosomes might be compatible such as ZW and ZZ chromosomes or XY and XX chromosomes. There’s also gamete size and a whole host of complex interactions.

Then there is issue of whether an organism actively produces or contains these reproductive cells at a particular time. Some species, such as frogs, are capable of producing different types of reproductive cells depending on environmental conditions.

If you base your sex categorization based solely in terms of reproductive functionality then there is a significant portion of the human population which cannot be said to have any sex, as they do not contain any reproductive cells nor are they capable of producing them. Additionally, we would not know the sex of most of the population since over 99% of humans have not had their chromosomes checked.

You’re trying to apply a standard definition of sex which is not compatible with how society functions. If I accept that chromosomes determine sex and you arbitrarily define the word “male” to mean something with ZZ chromosomes then it has no real use case outside of a laboratory. How would I know whether Donald Trump is male or not? Chromosomes were discovered in the 1880s; How do we know if George Washington was male?

Your definition of sex is untenable. Try again.

We aren’t going to mention ice type?

Ask any post menopausal woman. (estrogen pills)

Or teenage girl with acne. (anti androgen pills(sometimes))

Trans women take both.

I mean it’s an incredibly difficult job to refine the chemicals enough to produce a usable product. There’s a finite number of instalations which can actually pull off the delicate chemistry. The materials to make it are fairly common enough; essentially just SiO2,Al2O3, Na2O, and K2O, but it’s much easier to obtain it from the hardware store. I’m definitely not suggesting you attempt to make your own clear glass.

Good catch, but that’s a common misconception. You can actually use woodworking tools on glass, such as drills and saws, but you need to go a lot slower and make sure to keep vibrations under controll.
