    Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

    Had lasik in one eye, wear a lens in the other one; I currently wear lenses that are slightly stronger than my actual prescription to help counter the astigmatism but it's not keeping up. Next eye doctor appointment in January and I expect I'll be either wearing 2 lenses or glasses again. *sigh*

    How can you tell? I can only see her toes. She may well have 11 fingers.

    [News] The USA Police State will never satisfy its lust for beating, gassing, and imprisoning minorities

    Djeezes Christ. That'll definitely improve the odds of anyone in that community ever calling the cops for anything not warranting immediate execution ever again. Obviously this is one source and all that, but assuming their depiction of events holds true - and it sounds pretty damn credible -...

    Weird weather

    Not that I want to be a downer, but that project has faltered and is now pretty much dead in the water, since literally every country it runs through has had a Wagner-backed coup, an Islamist Jihad, or a Russia-backed civil rebellion over the past decade. Which, coincidentally, is driving up...

    People often ask me how to know for sure if an image was created by artificial intelligence. So I marked in the attached photo (in the red circles) some clues that make me suspect that it's a fabricated photo, although it's not possible to say with absolute certainty in this case.

    [Rant] Tech Minor Rant Thread

    There's a lot of crap to be said about FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL and co (a LOT), but Amazon's own delivery service is without a doubt the crappiest one with among the worst service and highest delays. Something about paying peanuts and getting monkeys. r/fedexers and similar are all full of people...

    Gender Issues Thread

    OK, I badly expressed myself there, I think. To be clear: I think transpeople (and everyone else) should be able to use any damn bathroom they very well please. I don't care about your biological sex, or the gender you're presenting as, or whatever. If you're going to use a urinal, you better...

    Gender Issues Thread

    Well, duh. I mean, I understand why trans (and allies) people care about this type of laws, and their own safety. What I don't get is why they don't strive/push more towards other solutions than "I want to keep bathrooms clearly segregated into men and women, and then never want to encounter...

    Gender Issues Thread

    I still don't understand why people are so hung up on this. And I mean both sides, to be clear. There are a billion good ways of skirting this issue without problems. Plenty of places I visit just have gender neutral bathrooms (or, in case of smaller establishments, just plain one single toilet...

    [News] Face, meet Leopard.

    "Conservatives approaching enlightenment" is such a misleading title. To be clear, they're not going "whoa these guys are more extreme than we thought", they're more concerned about "these folks might not be competent enough to push through our extreme agenda". Which might actually be a saving...
