Sadly, that doesn’t always help. I’ve lived in a city with several public toilets. Some people would still rather piss on a wall ~30 metres away from the public toilet rather than use it.

They probably reduced the amount of people doing that, though.

I’ve had issues since kernel 6.4. Since early December, one pair of Bluetooth headphones works again (mostly, with occasional connection issues), but the AirPods still fail to pair at all.

If the community is so large that your post is immediately buried, it’s large enough for a subcommunity.

However, most communities on the threadiverse are not that large. In that case, fragmenting the tiny communities even more just hides your post from the users who might be interested but are not subscribed to a niche subcommunity of a small community.

  1. Refurbished ones are just as good as fresh ones, and basically always "on sale" since their price is reduced.

  2. Valve seems to be moving towards a very likely Steam Deck Refresh. Very little is known about when or how this will happen. Based on previous comments and data-mining, the refresh will have the exact same amount of gaming-power. It may, however, have a better WiFi-chip, better screen, and stuff like that. Nothing is certain and if you want a Deck soon-ish, I wouldn’t recommend waiting for this.

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen several different clips where he repeats the same "I’m a moron" spiel.

While I have only watched what few clips came my way, I was under the impression that was the entire point of his podcast: Invite interesting* people, then validating them in discussion by agreeing to most of their takes regardless of how bizarre they are so that they freely speak of their topic.

*wherein "interesting" is usually something from the categories of fringe beliefs (often conspiracies), drugs, culturally influential people, or experts on whatever is a big topic for his viewership at the time.

Many of the experts are also those of the fringe belief kind.


Basically, if you take Rogan’s views significantly more seriously than the beliefs of your local meth head, you are doing it wrong.

  1. Freeze leftovers. If food is too much, put 1-2 meals in a freezer-ready container, put it away. Eat it a few weeks/months later when you’re too lazy to cook.

  2. Measure ingredient amounts. Usually, I don’t bother, but if I don’t want leftovers, it’s necessary.

you feel dirty

One might argue that this is the issue. Men watching porn feel dirty/wrong. Women masturbating and consuming their porn of choice is normalized.

Male sex toys exist, they are just not advertised. (Aside from hole shaped after specific, often fictional, women. Again, the focus is on the woman, not male pleasure.)

Last I checked, his audience was those self-proclaimed "intellectuals". The kind of atheists who define their identity by dunking on religious people, and the kind of mediocre people who feel superior by laughing others.

People who look at cherry-picked and out-of-context examples of progressivism and then dismiss the entirety as anti-science wokeness. People who cherry-pick scientific beliefs (without deeper research) in the same way most religious people cherry-pick passages from their holy text. Take the (out-of-context) quotes that reaffirm what you already belief in, ignore the rest, and most importantly: Declare that your "truth" is superior to others.

Beim Waschen wird die Kleidung enger. Besonders beim zu heißen Waschen wird Kleidung enger.

Hubi beklagt sich darüber, dass die Kleidung immer enger wird. Hubi wünscht sich, dass Kleidung bei kalten Waschen weiter würde.

Der Wunsch ist: 1) Heißes Wasser macht Kleidung enger. 2) Kaltes Wasser macht Kleidung weiter.

Wild speculation: Might this be for the Deckard instead? While I would expect that to run on a newer processing unit, I’d expect the Deckard to come before any hardware refresh.

Not sure if there is a world where this makes sense, though. Perhaps they are using that APU internally for prototypes? Not sure if it would be added to the kernel for that…

Edit: Reading more detailed rumours and speculation, Deckard or Deckard-related tec seems to be the most plausible explanation.

Is there a big difference between paid and free readers? It seems weird for them to only list readers with monthly cost (+a browser).

The discussion is fascinating. My few cents:

  1. Using female as a noun can be bad, but is it "permaban the user and criticism and locking the thread bad?". Options would have included: removing the post, which wasn’t done, handing out warnings or temp bans, or even just calling it out in a mod comment.

  2. Personally, I read that use as intentional in the context of the image: These titles are written from the perspective of the person in the image. The person depicted was trying to objectify a woman. Objectifying language might be appropriate since that person saw an object of desire, not a person.

  3. Obviously, we lack context.
