As a trans person, if either of them had enough estrogen to make any sort of meaningful impact on someone’s body, trans women would be drinking a gallon a day.

I sometimes wonder why anything is wrapped in plastic at all. So many products are wrapped in plastic for seemingly no other reason than to indicate that it’s unopened.

That depends on your goal. If you want something free, open source and self-hosted then Plex isn’t the best option and you’d do better to look at Jellyfin or Kodi.

I can’t help but think that this is just a ranking of how much people need these things. Everyone needs a grocery store all of the time, so it makes sense to have one nearby whether or not you use a car to get there. But people don’t need a bar or a shopping mall every day. So people might be more willing to have one a bit further away.

Don’t AI models need to be trained on the material they are trying to emulate?

They are saying the husband gets his income from being a sandwich artist and the wife’s income comes from a rebate on purchasing a heat pump.

American living in Canada here. It took me a couple of months at most to get used to both. I still couldn’t give you an accurate conversion between metric and imperial, but my brain understands the metric units now. It’s just a matter of using the units in everyday life.

Speed and distance were probably the easiest ones for me. You set your car’s dash to use km/h instead of mph. Then you just follow the road laws like normal. If it says the speed limit is 100 km/h, you just don’t let the number on the dash go much above that. Or you just drive the same speed everyone else does like you do on American roads anyway.

Temperature was a bit more confusing, but you pretty quickly learn that you’ll be happy if you set the thermostat to 18-24 and that if the temperature outside hits 30, it’s going to be a hot day. That kind of precision is more than enough for your mind.

I genuinely used to think I’d have a hard time switching to metric for most things. In my mind, I’d always have to be converting things back to imperial in my head. But that just isn’t the way it works. You quickly just start to relate the units to the real world and you understand it pretty quick.

Celsius:
0 is freezing
10 is not
20 is pleasing
30 is hot

There are ways to get free or reduced cost therapy.

If you are employed, see if your health insurance plan covers therapy. If not, see if there is an Employee Assistance Program or something similar.

If you are a student, check with your school/college/university, many offer free therapy sessions.

If you aren’t either, you can still get cheaper therapy by asking therapist offices for a potential discount, sliding scale payment plan, income based payment plan, etc. You can also try to book with a clinical intern or therapist in training.

Some universities may offer discounted therapy sessions if you see a student therapist.

Community centers or community health clinics sometimes offer free or reduced cost therapy.

If nothing else works, places of worship also often offer therapy, though make sure it is a place that is welcoming of LGBT+ people.

I think she was trying to play it off like McConnell was just hard of hearing and the reporter wasn’t being loud enough and that’s why McConnell wasn’t answering. It wasn’t a good bluff though seeing as McConnell hadn’t said anything intelligible in like 20 seconds.

Not every package that comes with xfce has a name that starts with xfce4, just most of them do. You may need to identify and remove other packages too.

I think the meme is referring to the first vowel.

I think that: sudo apt purge xfce4* sudo apt autoremove

should do it.

I’ll point out that the other answers here are also correct. It depends on how you want to clean it from your system.

“apt remove” will only remove the packages, not the config files
“apt purge” will remove the packages and config files
“apt autoremove” will clean up the orphaned dependencies
“xfce4” will only remove the DE
“xfce4*” will remove the DE and most of the other packages that come with xfce

I bought an electric car because it was a better car for my needs. I got a good deal on it. Electric cars have fewer, simpler moving parts. They require fewer oil changes and don’t have to deal with heat dissipation. I can also have it plugged into my house each night, which means I always have a “full tank” every morning. I can set the heat or air conditioning to come on on a schedule because it doesn’t produce carbon monoxide. The car is much quieter and drives a lot smoother.

They have a lot of benefits, but they don’t exactly save the environment. Lithium mining is very destructive to the local environment and it’s done in countries with questionable ethics around worker health and safety. Most experts agree that over the lifespan of a car, electric cars are better for the world environment than gas vehicles, but if you really want to make an impact on the environment, taking public transit or biking or walking or other forms of micro-mobility would actually make a way bigger impact. And if those kinds of things are difficult where you live, you should really be supporting public policy to make that better.

I had a similar thing happen, except that instead of a cop, they hit a patch of ice, slid sideways into a light pole completely fucking up the side of their expensive looking SUV, and then they drove off as if nothing happened.

As far as J. J. goes, if you’re curious, he did a video about the Canadian raising accent, where he addresses his use of the word. https://youtu.be/8YTGeIq4pSI

J. J. McCullough on YouTube is a pretty popular YouTuber that says aboot a lot. As an American who moved to Canada, I hear a lot of people use “aboat” a lot instead of the more American “abowt”. Though it can be pretty difficult to distinguish between a Canadian and American accent, especially since both countries have several different accents.

I use PETG on a PEI sheet like OP has. It will stick so hard that it rips the PEI off of the metal plate if I don’t put some hairspray down as layer in between.

I disagree. Linux is run on a large number of servers. It may be a less tempting target for Trojan style malware, but exploits and vulnerabilities for Linux are very valuable since you can gain access to large amounts of valuable data.

To be fair, critical security patches for Windows are often delivered out of band (not on patch Tuesday). And malware definitions for Defender are daily.

Not trying to defend Microsoft entirely, but not everything is delayed until their monthly update schedule.
