dekken_··on The Mating Psychology of Incels – The Journal of Sex Research
> They also get to decide that it is involuntary,

That doesn't make sense, then it's voluntary.

dekken_··on The Mating Psychology of Incels – The Journal of Sex Research
Please stop using that word, no one but the person in question gets to decide if they are celebate or not, it's really disingenuous, and just indicates you don't understand the notion of consent.
dekken_··on Things to commit just before leaving your job
initial commit is 2013
dekken_··on EU Cyber Resilience Act: What does it mean for open source?
Like that won't still be possible?
dekken_··on Memes and mental health: How teens are coping with increasing stress
I always thought it (memes) was about identifying your peer group.

Comradery can lessen stress I'm sure.

dekken_··on AMD leaps after launching AI chip that could challenge Nvidia dominance
it's called hip, and it's mostly the same

AMD have their own thrust gpu impls, so from a high level they are somewhat interchangeable

dekken_··on Salad Fingers and the dawn of ‘weird YouTube’
arrowed!
dekken_··on Scientists succeed in growing dolomite in the lab
obligatory: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfgKJ9G_2fg
dekken_··on New York State Prisons: How to Avoid Rape in Prison – Men's Orientation [video]
I think part of the problem might be the population that think people who are sent to prison "deserve" to be raped.

Glad to be wrong here tho

dekken_··on Woman wins 12-year legal battle against Google
And it's only defamation if it's false, which I'm not sure was investigated.
dekken_··on Woman wins 12-year legal battle against Google
yep, while I agree defamation is bad, I find the whole "publisher" argument somewhat obsolete. If everyone can be a publisher, then no one is.
dekken_··on Vectorpea: Online Tool for Vector Graphics
that's good, but it's also more movement than alt-d which I can do one handed without moving.

That was just one example anyway, other shortcuts are blocked too

dekken_··on Vectorpea: Online Tool for Vector Graphics
I think there should be options, that are opt-in
dekken_··on Vectorpea: Online Tool for Vector Graphics
Are you everyone?

That is only one example of a shortcut which doesn't work.

dekken_··on Vectorpea: Online Tool for Vector Graphics
please don't hijack regular browser shortcuts, or prevent them from working.

alt-d to select url bar is not working

dekken_··on Windows 10 warns me to use a "Microsoft-verified" app
I used Linux when working at Intel, but I'm a programmer, so maybe not general case.
dekken_··on Windows 10 warns me to use a "Microsoft-verified" app
I can too play a lot of games on Linux, just not all games that I want to play, yet at least
dekken_··on Windows 10 warns me to use a "Microsoft-verified" app
So you might say, Linux is not on par with Windows, which is what I said?
dekken_··on Windows 10 warns me to use a "Microsoft-verified" app
Once gaming is on par on Linux, windows is doomed, and I'm sure they know this, so this is their death spiral
dekken_··on MiniOS – a lightweight Linux distribution designed for USB drive
it's super obnoxious, even when it's only slight sensitivity changes (which it isn't here) I notice it and feel violated
dekken_··on What every software developer must know about Unicode in 2023
not just you, this is what my other comment is about (indirectly)
dekken_··on What every software developer must know about Unicode in 2023
Am I supposed to hate this website, cause I kinda do
dekken_··on France prepares to ban vegetarian products from using meaty language
Grilling isn't a meat thing tho, it's an operator.

Arbitrary nonsense serves no one except those paid to put it in place.

dekken_··on Paris Becomes the First European Capital to Ban Rented Electric Scooters
partially, rented escooters, not owned, so some percentage
dekken_··on Paris Becomes the First European Capital to Ban Rented Electric Scooters
> not the fact that scooters are allowed.

If you read my comment, you will notice I didn't say anything about this.

dekken_··on Paris Becomes the First European Capital to Ban Rented Electric Scooters
Anecdote: I'm not far from Paris, I was walking around a corner, dude on the footpath on a escooter runs right into me, luckily I am 188cm/100 kilos and he pretty much bounced off me, but a kid might have been less fortunate.

Paris is nice to cycle, cars can't typically go fast enough to be too much of a hinderance, better for bikes will be good tho, the bike lanes need some work

dekken_··on The EU’s Digital Services Act is now in effect
Or, advertising is harassment.
dekken_··on Cash payments above €3000 to be outlawed in Netherlands
I never said it wasn't useful ;) It's a collective hallucination since it's not based on anything anymore
dekken_··on Cash payments above €3000 to be outlawed in Netherlands
Money is a fiction, and it's not yours. Central banks merely let you use it.
dekken_··on Cash payments above €3000 to be outlawed in Netherlands
This, in itself is another issue, and should not be the case.

Banks fail, and no one should be forced to need one.
