  • The fediverse has been getting a rash of these types of comics designed to specifically widen the online gender divide with seemingly innocuous comics.

    Make no mistake, this comic in particular is not bad, and has already engendered some good discussion. The issue is these brand new accounts posting one or two comics about how men suck, or women suck, or whatever, and then leaving.


  • I think the general consensus was that he was weird and creepy, but we didn’t actually have proof that he was a pederast.

    Sorta like the creepy old man in the van down by the river; nobody saw him do anything weird so he’s not in jail, but everyone and their mothers makes sure he doesn’t ever get any alone time with a vulnerable person.










  • People are being brainwashed with crap like “calories in, calories out” or “exercise more” but that’s just bullshit. It pushes the idea that too much weight comes from a personality flaw and not health issues, but yet any actual (and by that, I mean proper) doctor will quickly search for medical reasons for weight gain because there’s a million of them.

    Genetics affects how the caloric intake is handled. It does not change the fact that adjusting caloric intake will directly adjust how much weight is even possible to gain.

    Studies concluded that the presence of these genes increases the risk of obesity but does not necessitate obesity. This risk can be ameliorated by healthy food choices, increased physical activity and avoiding other causes of obesity mentioned in this review.

  • I have used this card for a couple years.

    Pros:

    • five m.2 sata slots
    • single slot pcie, and short / not extending past top of slot
    • incredibly cheap
    • mine has been reliable
    • no extra power needed
    • no pcie bifurcation or other special motherboard features required (works in anything)
    • the individual drives do show up as individual drives in Debian for me and can be accessed separately (not a hardware raid card)

    Cons:

    • pcie 3.0x2 speed in an x16 slot (2GBps)
    • doesn’t support m.2 pci
    • doesn’t support booting from the installed drives

    If all you’re looking for is cheap, quiet, storage, and you don’t mind losing out on total read/write speeds, thisll actually do great just about anywhere.
