@craiggrannell I’ll miss these while going from the UK airport, used to be my go to magazine to buy. 😕
@Viditb it’s a weird decision, IMO. But then a US company is probably not happy with the kind of subscriber numbers a UK company happily takes.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cis People:
❓ What does it mean to be a cisgender?
🅰️ Cisgender people are just like you and me, except they believe that their "assigned sex at birth" matches up with their "gender identity".
❓ How do they know they are cis?
🅰️ Cisgender people often feel that they "know" their gender internally, many times from a very young age. They feel as if they were "born in the right body".
❓ Who would date a cisgender?
🅰️ Though cisgender people often have a hard time finding partners, they are still able to have healthy relationships. Often, cis people date other cis people.
❓ How do they have sex?
🅰️ Cisgender people can be very inventive with their bodies!
❓ If I have sex with a cisgender does that make me straight?
🅰️ Assigned sex at birth and sexual orientation are two different things. Just like regular people, cisgender people can have any sexual orientation.
❓ Why don't cisgenders get counseling to learn to accept the gift of transition?
🅰️ Counseling aimed at changing someone’s gender identity, sometimes known as "conversion therapy", doesn’t work and can actually be extremely harmful. The belief that someone's identity can be changed through therapy runs counter to the overwhelming consensus in the medical community.
❓ What medical treatments do cisgenders seek out?
🅰️ Some, but not all cisgender people undergo medical treatments to make their bodies more congruent with their assigned sex at birth, and help them live healthier lives. Different cis people may need different types of sex affirming related care. Medical procedures can include:
- Breast enlargement
- Hair growth treatments
- Erectile enhancement drugs
- Hormone therapy
- Various surgeries to make one's face, chest, and anatomy more in line with one's assigned sex at birth
❓ But they don't even look like a cisgender!
🅰️ Cisgender people are everywhere. They might not look how you expect! Understanding is the first step toward acceptance.
I'm getting that itch to buy a #tarot deck again but over the last 25 years I have bought like 7 and still literally only use the Goddess Deck by Kris Waldherr, my first purchase at like 14.
Which is especially strange as a nontheist.
Condé Nast shit the bed so hard when it fired four journalists last year that it's now settled with the union and given three out of the four reporters "two years’ pay and furnished [them] with positive letters of recommendation."
UNIONS, PEOPLE. UNIONS!
I was able to flash CrossPoint 1.3.0 to my XTEINK X4 *using Firefox* for the first time, since Firefox now supports WebSerial.
Nice.
@neil this is awesome. I'll update with Firefox next time!

This is how the AI bubble bursts: https://www.theverge.com/ai-artificial-intelligence/917380/ai-monetization-anthropic-openai-token-economics-revenue
There is no conceivable way to break even for the AI industry—let alone to repay an investment that requires $2Tn a year from now to the end of the decade. That's about 3% of the entire planetary GNP. Just to break even.
@cstross Hopefully all those people losing their jobs now because AI is taking their job will get hired back. Hope this bursts before they build the ones around me where they will suck our source of drinking water dry in less than 10 yrs.
@evan why does that matter?
@renae because people who have been earning and saving for decades are often more used to bigger bank accounts. Median savings at retirement are in the low hundreds of thousands of dollars. If you're not used to being around people with that much money, it might be because you're not around middle-aged or older people.
@401matthall Absolutely!
@401matthall I appreciate that a terminal interface is old fashioned, but for handling email, or reading RSS feeds, or writing something, it takes some beating.
I'm on the fence about web browsing, because so many sites depend on JavaScript (unnecessarily) - but I do like browsing using elinks when I can.
@iorsh I am doing a startup that will compete with QuiverAI but will progressively open source old models while keeping the frontier models proprietary.
But the editor is completely open source and ComfyUI is designed for running local AI. So someone with a $500 GPU gaming card should be able to do their own post training and custom models.
@elih
Ah, cool. Good luck! I was thinking about it a little, and chores like feature files or combined characters seem to be rather low-hanging fruit. Vector is perhaps more complex, but hopefully not tremendously.
