Gender Abolitionist Proposals

Gender Abolitionist Proposals - Lemmy.World

3 places where I feel like gender separation doesn’t really make sense — #### Sports Separation of men and women in sports is fairly admirable as it gives people a chance to showcase their skill that would otherwise be outcompeted. It additionally is nice as women are a group that are often discriminated against and exposure in previously limited areas is nice. However, I don’t think that a strict gender separation is really necessary. I think that an ideal system would allow anyone with higher skill to go to the top of their league, relative to the physical ability determined by their genetics. I’m not very into sports, but I get the impression that people’s enjoyment often comes more from people’s character and effort than the absolute magnitude of their ability. Short v.s. tall people in basketball are one example that comes to mind; a shorter person would require much more skill to reach the same level as a taller person currently. I’m not much of a wrestling person, but I think this is addressed there through weight classes. A possible wider idea is be some meta-classification into classes based on the characteristics that cannot be changed with more practice or other self-improvement. — #### Bathrooms this is basically a summary of this very silly 2kliksphilip video [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy_fElYFzI8] Urinals are more space-efficient than toilets, but typically only are found in men’s restrooms. Therefore, with equally sized men’s and women’s restrooms, the men’s restroom gets higher throughput assuming an equally sized demand, and has under-occupied stalls compared to the women’s room. Even if both are perfectly sized for average demand, there will still be inefficiencies when outlier groups come in. There’s really no reason other than tradition to not just separate out the urinals (if desired) and unify all of the stalls, with full height walls if you think it isn’t private enough (Really, as a 6 foot 2 guy, it’s silly how low stall wall tops usually are). — #### Pronouns I was working on a thing recently and had to refer back to someone in a sentence that already included 2 men. I know that some other languages have primarily gender neutral pronouns, but a concern that I have had is that it would make it harder to tell who someone is talking about. I think there are some alternate systems that are better at resolving general ambiguity though, like having different pronouns for the person most recently named vs. 2nd most recently named, etc. There might be languages that do this already, idk, I just speak English and a teeny bit of Spanish lol. I haven’t put all that much thought into this but I’m sure there are ways that could make this problem in communication even easier than it is currently. If we could ever get an opportunity to modify common speech.

ATT SMTP port 25 unblocking

ATT SMTP port 25 unblocking - Lemmy.World

I was trying to set up mail for my server, to send status emails, gitlab emails, etc. I know this can be done with relays but I was interested in sending mail directly using SMTP. Apparently my ATT residential internet blocks outbound signals on that port by default, although there are several reports of people calling customer support and getting that changed. The most recent thing I can find was someone on Reddit 3 years ago: > xnojack: Probably depends on the rep. Just got mine unblocked a week ago. I read online though its better to say you’re looking to allow SMTP outbound rather than port 25 outbound. Cause on the reps end its called something like SMTP outbound filter. (link [https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/comments/up49zt/psa_att_residential_fiber_allows_you_to_request/]) I tried to call in and get this changed, the rep was very helpful but either something’s changed on their end or he was looking in the wrong place. Anyways, I was wondering if any of you have gone through this process recently and know if this is still a thing, or have any advice.

"secure screenshot" idea

https://lemmy.world/post/24632752

"secure screenshot" idea - Lemmy.World

I was thinking about how hard it is to accurately determine whether a screenshot posted online is real or not. I’m thinking there could be an option in the browser to take a “secure screenshot”, which would tag the screenshot with the date, url, and whether the page was modified on your computer. It could then hash both the tag and the image data and automatically upload this hash to some secure server somehow. There would need to be a way to guarantee that only the browser could do this, or at least some way to tell exactly what the source was. I’m not much of a cryptography person, but I would be surprised if it isn’t possible to do this. Then, you could check if the screenshot you see is legitimate by seeing if it’s hash exists in the list of real hashes.
