Why, a hexvex of course!

Apples to oranges - open source is generally done as a charitable act; onlyfans is a profit driven industry.

The former is out to make the software ecosystem richer, the latter is out to make themselves richer (or has no choice).

An interesting note is that OF replaced the informal system that had evolved on Tumblr, and was designed to be less exploitative than mainstream pornography - in this the evidence suggests it has been successful. It, of course, exploits male loneliness like a well oiled machine, but that’s (apparently) ok.

Back when software had a soul…
So essentially laying the groundwork to microtransactions for video game guides?
I didn’t know The Enclave had taken over pre-nuclear apocalypse…

Honestly, shout out to the folks who maintain packages, Linux error logs are very searchable and readable.

I usually just scan the terminal logs looking for error flags and then search for them to see if they’re something that can, and should be, fixed.

Amnesty international is a great source for current atrocities nations undertake.

Read the reply again - notice the meaning is not in question, merely the use.
Clearly fake - no-one puts first supervisor in their email signature!

The first times I saw “cis” being used, it was a punch back against anti-trans slurs; the use was intentionally pejorative but it was justified. A bit like calling a white supremacist a cracker.

I suspect the wider use beyond this aim was to teach transphobes a lesson by giving them an undesirable label (“cissys” was used if offence was sought) in an attempt to create empathy. The “it’s a technical term” argument did offer a funny balance to the “biological” argument which helped de-tooth some anti trans talking points…

Of course, this approach also probably drove more of the indifferent to oppose the trans movement, rather than garnering empathic support.

It likely did more harm than good, and is likely a hill a lot of folks are going to die on. Then again, maybe that was the point?
