Elinvynia··on Show HN: I help LGBT people to find LGBT homes
As long as arguments like the "trans panic" defense exist and are viable in courts, I feel like it's better for queer people to stick together.

Your idea while honorable ignores the reality that queer people experience and that one of the two parties in the US is planning to strip away more of their rights. (See: Recent RvW ruling that had their next targets set, like same sex marriage)

Mask off moment there.

That's because their raises, if they happen, are factually pay cuts (aka lower than inflation).
Elinvynia··on Two types of privacy
That's why GDPR complying webservers either disable logs or keep them on a rotating 30 day basis (a real legitimate interest to have insight into potential DDoS attacks).

Elinvynia··on Most of the world’s grain is not eaten by humans

How is AGPL not FOSS as defined by both OSI and FSF?

The ideological left of neoliberalism, which has only been gaining ground everywhere since the 70's :)
Elinvynia··on Norway to track all supermarket purchases?

Elinvynia··on Google’s AI-powered ‘inclusive warnings’ feature is very broken
Not being able to strike is not the win you think it is, as striking is the most powerful action that labor has and has lead to the very things you enjoy today - weekends and a 40 hour work week.
Elinvynia··on World’s first octopus farm stirs ethical debate
Are you okay with male chicks being grinded alive to enjoy your eggs, female cows being artificially inseminated by humans and their babies taken away and murdered just so you can enjoy your milk?
Elinvynia··on I was wrong, we need crypto

Why don't you fully trust mRNA vaccines?
Elinvynia··on Comparing SARS-CoV-2 natural immunity to vaccine-induced immunity [pdf]
Name calling is okay, if true. If someone is an anti-vaxxer, not calling them such only supports that extremely harmful movement. Preventing calling them anti-vaxxes is literally censorship, and likely something that you are against.
