u/MossyFeathers — Mossy Feathers (She/Her)

Did she get snubbed by someone who's ace or something? Asexuality is possibly the most inoffensive sexuality in existence.

Like, oh no.

They don't experience sexual attraction.

That means they're probably significantly less likely to objectify or assault you than someone who isn't ace. Isn't that a *good thing* for someone supposedly so concerned with being objectified and violated, Miss Rowling?

What a wildly brain-dead take from someone who loves claiming to be a feminist.

(Yes, I know she's not actually a feminist, but it's another piece of hypocrisy to throw on the pile)

Damn, you must be a pretty shallow-minded person to miss the fact that the culture war is perpetuated by the rich to keep us from working together. Racism, religious institutions, sexism, queerphobia, these are tools that the rich and powerful use to keep us divided. When you allow them to wage a culture war unopposed, you are letting them use their ideological "weapons of war" without retaliation.

And no, this isn't just about wanting to be called a woman. This is about being made illegal for who I am. I can't fight against the wealth gap if I'm in prison for having tits and a dick, now can I? I can't fight against the wealth gap if I'm struggling from derealization, depersonalization, dissociation, and suicidal depression brought about by crippling dysphoria as a result of being unable to access estrogen, now can I?

If I dared to suggest we prioritize reducing the disparity in wealth over fighting a culture war, you people immediately assume I'm an enemy.

No, because doing one means doing the other. Who do you think is waging the culture war in the first place?

Personally, as a trans person, I don't want your loyalty. I don't care about your loyalty. We don't know one another *at all* so I don't even know if you're someone I'd actually want to hang around; and I'm not gonna ask for loyalty from a total stranger.

What I want is for you to act like a decent human being and understand that the culture war is part of a much larger war about wealth inequality; and that you're going to struggle if you allow your allies to slowly get picked off by the ones waging the war in the first place. If *that* occurred then the best you could hope for would be a pyrrhic victory that leaves you asking, "we won, but at what cost?"

Here's an article on the two bills that got voted out in Montana: https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/powerful-speeches-from-trans-dems

Most of the anti-trans legislation is as bad or worse; Texas has a couple nutjobs trying to make being trans illegal as a whole.

They can't see that attacks on trans rights are also attacks on cis rights. I think that's part of the reason why Rep. Zoey Zephyr and Rep. SJ Howell were so effective at stopping a couple pieces of anti-trans legislation in Montana yesterday. They talked about the fact that the legislation would potentially effect cis people as well as the fact that it'd take "parental rights" away from parents. They also did it in a way that created a narrative which both cis and trans people can identify with, creating a common ground to further convince people that the legislation was wrong. And it was successful. They got a number of *Republican* lawmakers to switch sides, despite the fact that the GOP prides itself on being in lockstep. They even had a *Republican* lawmaker make a stand too, saying that the people introducing this legislation were basically just wasting everyone's time.

People say, "trans rights are human rights" and they're serious. We embody the extreme of gender non-conformity that cis people occasionally dabble in, and when you start taking away our rights, you start taking away cis rights too.

It would be for DS and Wii U emulators.

Nah, that's centered on Oklahoma. It includes DFW, but that's basically all of Oklahoma.

I personally would have loved it if they'd actually carried through with physically swappable components. While the touchpads are awesome for games that don't have normal gamepad support or require faster turn speeds, they just don't have the same feel as a physical analog stick for the games that *do* support it.

Damn, you know shit's getting serious when they add green to a temperature color gradient.

Many of the games are made to be run on windows, windows is still a effecient os, it's just a lot of bloat, which can be disabled.

A) as someone else pointed out, "bloat" and "efficient" are exclusive to one another. Now, you can argue that windows is efficient in some areas and bloated in others, but "bloat" and "efficiency" are mutually exclusive when applied generally.

B) yes, most, if not all of it, can be disabled through registry edits and 3rd party hacks. However, in my experience, the more you try to debloat windows, the more unstable it gets. Then, it will all come back eventually via updates, which means you get to disable it all again. Finally, again *in my experience*, the more you try to debloat windows, the less stable it gets, and this carries over even when the OS reinstalls/reenables bloat you tried to get rid of. Seriously, my experience is that even after windows updates rebloat everything, the OS remains unstable, and becomes even more unstable after you debloat again. Granted this was with windows 10, but I imagine the same is more or less true for windows 11.

Also a lot of optimizations in nt has been done for gaming, features which are missing in the linux kernel, but there are RFCs to add nt like synchronization primitives, in the linux kernel.

C) and yet, iirc, recent Linux vs Windows 11 benchmarks show *Windows* games running on Linux via Proton/Proton-GE anywhere from slightly slower to slightly faster than Windows, *despite requiring translation layers to run*; while the Linux-native games typically run faster than their Windows counterparts.

Windows is just *that bloated*.

Same. I just can't imagine using anything other than Linux for this kinda handheld. Like, I'm mainly a Windows user and I can't imagine trying to use windows on my steam deck. When you want to make a gaming-focueed handheld like this, you want as much performance as you can squeeze out of the hardware. You're not doing that with windows.

Could still be ones available. Got in at the moment orders opened, never got to check out.

Edit: what the fuck, now I'm being told that it thinks I'm a bot. Fuck off.


Edit 2: kept having issues with getting the limited edition and decided to just get the normal version instead. Checked out without an issue.

I would agree with this, except that afaik both groups have a legitimate historical/religious claim to the territory. Additionally, you're basically saying that Hamas is justified in slaughtering hundreds of unarmed people. I was sympathetic until they made the Las Vegas shooting look like a minor scuffle.
