  Yea, kinda. It forces it hard though.

  There is no obvious way to skip the MS account. You can select that it is a managed device and create a local user that way, but afaik that’s the last option left and obviously it is there for a very different intention.

  I am sure that if MS could remove it completely they would.

  I am playing Railbound after it got on sale this week. Some of the extra levels are really hard and I have yet to find a solution.

  Overall it is a fun little game which works great on the Steam Deck.

  Yes, you are correct. That’s not a solution, but leaves all options open and everything is voluntary.

  I don’t believe there is a satisfactory solution for everyone at once, so I don’t think you can do any better than this.

  This is just clickbait.

  I watched the video and he is missing the point by trying to be in the center of the debate. There is either discrimination or acceptance and not much of a middle ground.

  Points 1-5 are obvious and nobody should be confused about any of that. Of course he is right here and water is wet.

  6 is actually a real problem, but it cannot be solved. Either you discolose it yourself which either leads to outing or staying in the closet or people assume for you which also leaves you in the closet. In my groups we stopped asking about pronouns to not put anyone on the spot, but there is no satisfying solution to this problem.

  Of course you can demand others to refer to you in a way, the same way you provide a name. It is very much a social expectation and here the video is missing the point. Either you respect the other person or discriminate them, there exists no middle ground. It is the same as refusing to use their name. There is also no distinction if you disrespect them to their face or behind their back (talking to others about them).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can I keep fried eggs in fridge?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Two weeks? I would throw away the whole fridge if I left any food in there for two weeks.

  Most foods are okay for around two days without any problems. Some foods may last up to 5 days if they are salty or contain some vinegar, but it requires throughout heating to be save at this point.

  I would never eat anything older than that which has been exposed to air. It’s a biohazard!

  Yea, unless used degoratory I don’t think it is a big deal either. It is probably a cultural thing and I respect it.

  Thinking more about it it would also be weird to call a woman female in my native tongue and could also only be used in a degoratory manner. We also have some older words which would be even worse.

  No, I think I get it after putting some more thought into it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean transfem and transmasc are common terms in trans communities. I assume it has nothing to do with trans people but a human female is called a woman hence calling women female is frowned upon. You call a female animal a female, but not a human usually.

  There is some nuance in their I probably don’t fully understand either as a non native speaker.

  Why? The answer is known. You can easily proof it by contradiction. Therefore the halting problem is unsolvable.

  This solution actually provides some good insight into other problems and wether or not they are solvable. It is useful, even though the negative result might seem disappointing.
