  • Martens or Solovair? Or an alternative?

    Jump

  • I have a very similar pair of docs. I've worn them generally 5x (or more) per week as their my work shoes. I've had them for almost 3 years, and it shows. They're still pretty comfortable, but most of my job is sitting.

    Edit: I just searched the Jadon III, that's the exact pair I have.

  • California to become first state to sell cheap insulin through state-backed program

  • Adding means testing to programs like this generally cost more money than it saves.

  • Is it possible to Unlock a phone from Verizon, if I've already switched to T-Mobile? EDIT: spoke with VZ, they said it's already "unlocked".

    Jump

  • Are you talking boot loader unlock? Because I'm 99% sure Verizon will not allow you to unlock your boot loader under any circumstances. Phones purchased through Verizon have a locked boot loader and they refuse to unlock it.

    Edit: if they do help you please let us know, I'm in the same boat with my pixel 7 pro!

  • Who do I contact?

    Jump

  • I genuinely like going to bed at like 11am to noon and getting up around 7pm to 9pm. Sadly there's not a lot of career advancement in the jobs that hire for those hours, and I've got student loans to pay.

  • Google's shocking developer decree struggles to justify the urgent threat to F-Droid

    Jump

  • Correct, because there is no argument to be had. Intentionally refusing to use someone's pronouns is unacceptable, every time, with 0 exceptions. If there's a dire need to be explicitly clear you're talking about a single person, you could just use their name in that instance.

    Jump

  • Probably because singular "they" predates singular "you" grammatically. Should we go back to using thou and thee instead of the singular you as well?

  • Singular they is over 600 years old by the way: https://www.oed.com/discover/a-brief-history-of-singular-they/?tl=true

    As a trans person, my gender dysphoria is not something caused entirely by social gender roles. Medical transition has greatly alleviated the majority of it. Anecdotally, within the first week of hormone therapy, my dysphoria improved dramatically while only being out of the closet to 2 people outside of my therapist and the medical professionals who prescribed my hormones. It has continued to improve, although I'm still waiting for the surgery that will resolve the remaining things that hormones can't fix.

    Also, there are studies around brain structure differences between men and women, and transgender people tended to have brain structures in line with their gender, not their assigned sex at birth: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causes_of_gender_incongruence#Brain_structure

    Perhaps you should believe people when they tell you who they are, and get past your discomfort drawing arbitrary lines in grammar regarding pronouns, when singular they predates the fall of the Byzantine Empire by 75 years.

  • Need recommendations for which Pixel to get (will run Graphene)

    Jump

  • I'm going to try to get it unlocked once it's paid off later this year. As for the sensor, it definitely can be blinding but I've never had issues with it not working. Good to know newer ones don't have the blinding problem!

  • Need recommendations for which Pixel to get (will run Graphene)

    Jump

  • It'll be paid off later this year and I'm going to give it a shot, but I'm pretty sure from the research I've done they'll unlock the carrier so you can use it with a different network. The bootloader they refuse to unlock for any phone purchased through them.

  • Need recommendations for which Pixel to get (will run Graphene)

    Jump

  • I sadly can't put Graphene on my pixel because I bought it through Verizon before I knew about their bootloader locking, but I have a 7 pro and the fingerprint sensor works completely fine.

  • How can i find what files are causing the problem? Opening the app shows everything normal

    Jump

  • I stopped using nextcloud after syncing suddenly broke for me, but in the app on my phone I could pull up the list of files with sync errors. It should be somewhere in the sync setting section.

  • Oh Boy!

    Jump

  • If you do shutdown -s -t 1 you can skip the -f and it'll shutdown after 1 second.

  • FBI to Categorize Trans People As "Nihilistic Violent Extremist" Threat Group, Report Says

    Jump

  • From the article: The group defines “TIVE” as “the belief that violence is justified against people who oppose [the trans community],” as well as the belief that opposing trans rights “itself constitutes a form of violence towards people who identify as [trans or gender nonconforming]... or poses an imminent threat to such persons’ emotional, psychological, or physical safety, including through self-harm or suicide.”

  • Why do some gamers invert their controls? Scientists now have answers, but they’re not what you think

    Jump

  • For airplanes yes, for literally any other application no, that's inverted.

    Jump

  • Yeah, that's inverted controls. Push the joystick up to go down, and down to go up.

  • Just another bat

    Jump

  • It might be just so there's less noise/wind inside the car and they can still use the AC without all the outside airflow. Hopefully the dog is strapped in too!

  • Tucker Carlson says Trump admin using Charlie Kirk’s killing to trample free speech

  • AOC voted to stop the amendment but voted no on the actual bill.

  • Not to defend the Democrats or Biden for their inaction, but it would have taken some Republican support to pass a law to protect abortion. The last time the Democrats could have enshrined abortion without help from Republicans was under Obama when they held the house and senate majorities. If Biden did it via executive order, Trump would be able to undo it immediately.

  • Looking to get my first 3d printer, any suggestions?

    Jump

  • If you want to tinker with it (probably quite a bit until you get it nicely tuned), the Ender 3 pro for $75 is a good deal. I've got one, and with some minor upgrades (raspberry pi running Klipper+Mainsail and a bed leveling sensor) it's been great. I saw you mentioned using Linux and tinkering with that, so you'd probably be able to get things working well.

    After you've got a bit of experience, I definitely recommend connecting it to a Pi or other computer to run some kind of web interface for printing, it's much nicer than messing with an SD card every time. Klipper (firmware alternative!) isn't too hard to set up (I'm using Mainsail as the UI) and it's been great. Before that I had Octoprint with the stock firmware which was super easy to set up but more limited.

    If you want to just plug it in and have it work perfectly right away, I've heard Bambu labs is best for that, but they're much more walled garden than other brands.
