I definitely did feel a little out of place around men, and many of my friends were women (even before my egg cracked). Uneasy is probably the wrong word, more just like an outsider.
I definitely wouldn’t make the claim “men are not that well socialized” (although that may well be true - but I couldn’t speak to that purely from my own experience)

As a trans girl, I can confidently say that I have a much easier time hanging out with girls I just met than I ever had hanging out with guys I just met. Although both do happen and aren’t too uncommon.

Last time I used Fetlife it seemed pretty dead. But maybe I could give it another try?
Or maybe I’ll finally meet some people irl 🤣

Where does one find one of these? Asking for a friend

Wow. That’s… so uncommon it’s literally hard to fathom. Congrats to your wife on finding such a good place to work!
- Comment on Makes sense 2 weeks ago:
Wow. Where the heck does your wife work, wall street?

My boss took everyone to dinner this week. Granted, there are about two dozen people in the whole organization, but still, it was really generous of her.

Honestly probably not that serious. Even in their myths/stories, the oracle would tell great doom and then no one would listen. I expect they got inspiration for that from somewhere.

The irony is that you are also cornposting.

Hey, saying you trained a neural network by hand is super impressive.
Just, you know, you conveniently forget to mention whether its an artificial neural network.
- Comment on North Carolina (NC) is just built different 5 weeks ago:
Is this meant to be an advertisement? As someone who grew up in NC I don’t really see it as one, but you do have a point.
If you think posts like this don’t belong here, I’m sure you could persuade the mods to consider an update to the comm rules

Mmm, artisinal small-batch slop
- Comment on North Carolina (NC) is just built different 5 weeks ago:
I would argue that this is the best use of AI. Images that are obviously, patently, undeniably slop.
It’s still destroying the planet for a meme, but hey, at least it’s funny

True, but projects like LibreWolf are the first step to creating a true fork of Firefox that’s completely out of Mozilla’s hands.
- Comment on Mozilla’s Betrayal of Open Source: Google’s Gemini AI is Overwriting Volunteer Work on Support Mozilla 5 weeks ago:
I’m already using librewolf. As soon as I saw Firefox was using ai I figured it was time to switch.
- Comment on Soup 5 weeks ago:
Coke (the soda) is 90% water.
Your soup will still be a soup (or a thin broth, at least) at a far higher percentage of water than you think it will.

I use adblockers… but I also donate montly. Wikipedia is good for humanity, and it needs to stay free from corporate money as long as possible.

If I had to guess, it’s mostly water.
The really scary stuff (in aqueous solutions, anyways) isn’t usually brightly colored, it’s usually clear. Of course there are exceptions - like bromine or iodine - but I know what those look like and nothing on that tree looks like either of those.
The reason for that is that most pigments are conjugated ring systems - complex organic molecules that break down in harsh environments - so anything sufficiently reactive would actually destroy any colorants you added to them.
I’m not saying that bright, friendly colors are always safe… but the easiest way to get a bunch of bright colors is to use food coloring and water.

To be fair, a lot of the credit for that complexity and depth goes to Dave
- Comment on On trees... 7 months ago:
Having recently learned about trees, I actually don’t think I know what a tree is. at least, not enough to create a reasonable, non-blurry definition of “tree.”
You’ve defined fish as being vertebrates, and as such I cannot find an invertebrate that fits that definition. But what you can’t do is just say the word “fish” and expect me to know what you mean - you have to provide a definition, and I could provide a different definition in a different context and neither of us would really be “wrong.”
- Comment on On trees... 7 months ago:
… and Wikipedia states that the category of “fish” is paraphylatic, meaning that it is defined by convention rather than ‘fact’ and its boundaries can be argued, since it excludes some of the descendants of fish.
also, as pointed out, we use the word fish to describe lots of things that are not included in this definition, like starfish and crayfish.
- Comment on On trees... 7 months ago:
Source?
Because all the sources I’ve come across say that “fish” is not a monophylatic classification and is essentially arbitrary.

Some fish are, yeah

I don’t want to be political, but the government decided that me existing should be illegal. So now me posting about fashion or makeup or whatever is automatically political now.

Ideas are cheap. Execution is what matters.
No one here in a lemmy comment section could do enough just by leaving a comment to even deserve a menton in the game’s credits.
- Comment on Game design question : how to make a "trapped" player character? 8 months ago:
You could do part puzzle game, part rts. What I mean by rts is that you can give the knight commands but you can’t control him directly. And maybe he doesn’t always do what he’s told, and you have to account for that somehow?
Could make for an interesting roguelike, too, as you try to help this endless stream of knights rescue you.
