Some trans people know at age 6, some at 26, some at 86. This used to be a thing that gatekeepers got in a huff about but even they don't care so much anymore.

Whatever age you figure out how to be happy is the right age for you. Seize it. Be beautiful. I believe in you.

Can't help but feel like a bunch of small/mid-sized companies are increasingly making the NixOS community their personal battleground, and I hate it

The various replies I've been getting to my Congress COVID thread are certainly a very good illustration of why I do not "trust in the [orga] process".

To angry straights and respectability gays everywhere:

If your day can be ruined by the mere fact of me wearing tights that make me happy

You deserve to have your day ruined

does anyone have an OBS preset that adds 'Unregistered Hypercam 2' in the corner

@psy Yeah, you're pretty much proving my point here. And as I've already told you, I'm done with this topic. I've exhaustively explained my reasons and given concrete criticisms. If you keep going, then the next step is a block.

@psy @satanskrapfen@chaos.social @snoopy@chaos.social Like, honestly, I'm very much done with this conversation. I'm getting nothing but shit, with no real attempt to understand my reasons, and see: social.pixie.town/@joepie91/10

@psy @satanskrapfen@chaos.social @snoopy@chaos.social Considering that there's basically zero communication from orga already, I honestly don't see how it could get any worse. And as I've said before, the needs of vulnerable/disabled people are more important here. Maybe your complaint shouldn't be levelled at me.

The whole PolyMC thing is tragic but its successor has a gay logo now sooo it was Worth it

And if you don't have an answer to "how will the supply chain have been improved if my company folds tomorrow", then you're not rescuing the supply chain at all, you're just running a business

Like, all the systemic industry-wide security issues weren't solved with More Capitalism the last 3 times people tried that either, and in the end it was always some frustrated unpaid random creature with an angry blog post who did the actual work, if it was ever solved at all

Show thread

Not so excited about the sudden explosion of "supply chain security startups" whose sales pitch seems to basically be that we can solve systemic problems with FOSS dependency security and funding by just Buying Their Specific Magical Product, rather than a commons-based solution.

@dreiwert@chaos.social I have repeatedly complained over the years about the exclusionary characteristics of the ticketing process (not just in terms of scarcity), but at least an attempt was made there to find a workable solution, in the form of a replicating-voucher system.

That is not remotely comparable to "Congress without any attempt at safety precautions whatsoever". And this was never meant to guilt-trip attendees to begin with; it was meant to warn them about the very real dangers, and pressure the orga.

And no, I didn't "win". As I've stated further down the thread, I would have much rather seen an attempt to make it continue with the appropriate safety measures. This is barely a "win" in the sense that at least it's not going to be a superspreader event.
