I highly recommend checking out LGBT organizations in your area, some of them have hobby clubs and meetups and whatnots (if there’s none in your local area try calling one anyway, maybe there are people interested in being online friends).

The question you asked screams lack of confidence and honestly the best cure would be to add some queer friends.

Of course it’s okay to say “when I was a little boy”. Why wouldn’t it be? Did someone told you it’s not okay to say that? Who was it?

but my friend corrected me and said i meant “people who get pregnant”, because men (like trans men but still men) can get pregnant

I think the correct response is to ask that friend why are they trying to pivot the discussion from women abortion. Was she trying to rail you up? Discourage your argument or position by implying you’re not good enough?

Honestly, she sounds like she preemptively gets offended on other people behalf, or like someone who weaponizes “being more PC than you”.

Or she knows a pregnant man (I think the stats were about 100 a year get pregnant, most of them immediately go to a clinic) personally and decided it’s the perfect time to use that fact to win the discussion? Or virtue signaling? I mean I’m assuming something is wrong with her, because that situation is random and unexpected.

I’m all for it. But let’s not forget Russia paying reparations to Poland, Estonia, Finland, Romania, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Georgia and Tuva.

If that was intervention to ‘free Donbas’ it would stop at Donbas and would not include city and civilian infrastructure bombing, would it now?

Americans aren’t being influenced by spooky foreigner actors on the other side of the world

Literally the link you posted contradicts it

Washington Post: Russian trolls on Twitter had little influence on 2016 voters

I feel like we’re going in circles. Happy New Year!

What are you trying to argue here? The OC was removed and you just listed a lot of non aggression pacts - with Polish ones in red for some reason?

You might be confusing using functions with functional programming. Python is Object Oriented language at it’s core, most people use it as procedural, and like most modern languages it supports also functional paradigms.

According to OpenAis internal test suite and system card, hallucination rate is about 50% and the newer the model the worse it gets.

And that fact remains unchanged on other LLM models.

I’m not sure why you think any digital device shouldn’t know what time it is. It’s not leaking any kind of personal information, just literal facts about reality.

My challenge isn’t about NTP but about printer shouldn’t be able to communicate with the internet, as it has no need for it.

You said: It’s common.

Okay, cool. So is cancer.

does not need to be able to talk to the internet at all, just to your router (or designated NTP server if you’re into that)

Exactly! So why allow the printer to go past it!

Me: please explain what kinds of timing attacks can affect a printer and what are the consequences, because I can’t think of any

You: Timing attacks. They are old. They are bad. Therefore printer needs to be protected from them.

I don’t think you answered my question.

Anything that connects to the network needs a synchronized clock with other devices it directly communicates with in order to make sure it’s not being subjected to timing attacks

Please explain what kind of timing attacks because what you wrote doesn’t make sense in the context of a damn printer.

Server? Sure. Printer? Why can it even access public internet?

Printer isn’t responsible for timestamps on your document. If that would be regarding tracking dots, then block it anyway, right? And if it’s a 3d printer then it still doesn’t need to have correct synchronized time, it only needs to be able to count how the time passes.

Again, what would a printer need a clock for?

Why would a printer need time? The only think that cames to mind is freezing cartridges after x months.

Are you telling that to someone on a .ml instance?

Huh. :P

(This is of course a joke)

FOSS to thrive needs people who can afford to spend time and energy on it. With the recent enshittification of workers collective power, developers have less of both, and the trend is pessimistic.

Except that *Fox, *Fennec and *Wolf are downstream to Firefox, so if the main trunk goes shit, they will become outdated soon.

If my cable printer would make a noise I didn’t recognize, I’d shoot it.
