ivy, to trans

I was wondering, who was the first person you ever knew?

for me, it was one of my closest friends that I met in cadets. she had put it in her profile on discord but I didn't really think much of it early on.

the next two I met were two trans guys in my highschool's GSA. they were the first trans guys I had ever met and really helped me to realize that not everyone wants to be a girl. they helped me try on pronouns in a safe environment and figure out what I wanted to do :bear_love:

carotte,

@ivy I’ve yet to meet any other trans person irl unfortunately 🙁 at least not to my knowledge

Living in the rural town of Buttfuck Nowhere, Canada certainly doesn’t help, but I’m not giving up. The college I go at is pretty big so I know I can find some trans friends if I put the energy towards it

Non-binary should always be added as an option when picking a gender on a site

I just heard someone ask a ChatGPT expert "what is the first big real human problem that AI will solve".

There were fifteen very long awkward seconds of silence as he tried to come up with an answer, and that is just the perfect metaphor for all this research and fervor into LLMs.

carotte,

@twipped No one knows which problem ChatGPT solves, however it is very easy to see all the problems it creates

"oh."

carotte,

@macronencer You should try out Firefox! It doesn't block ads by default but with some settings changed and a couple of extentions (uBlock Origin for ads and Consent-O-Matic for cookies) it handles most of these problems

uuuuggggg

of course my mom's mad now

I know the house isn't tidy yet. I'm sorry, the groceries took a bit longer than I thought. it sucks that you and dad are mad at each other rn for whatever reason

stop yelling at everyone and antagonizing everyone

I don't give a shit that you feel like it's this big thing for you, you've had two years now get over it

I'm still ivy whether your mad or not. I'm not deadname and you need to stfu or say nothing. I'm so tired of you not making an effort at home and being mad is not an excuse either

I need to live somewhere else, I'm so fucking done with their bullshit

carotte,

@ivy damn I’m so sorry 🫂

I hope it gets better for you soon ❤️

it's crazy we've had super constant growth on the instance
it seems my server can easily handle it and has been overall pretty snappy. I doubt I'll need to rescale it anytime soon, but it's nice my hosting provider makes it really easy if need be
thank you everyone and have fun on the threadiverse ❤️🌐

carotte,

@ivy Thank you for providing such an awesome instance ❤️

carotte,

@GeekFTW @kjr Companies already analyse our life with our activity online and know a ton about us.

What a great idea it would be to give them access to our every fucking thought

I'm absolutely loving this spirit of malicious compliance that's creeping into the subreddits that have been forced to reopen.

/r/pics started it off by holding a vote where their users overwhelmingly said that the only pics they wanted were ones of John Oliver looking lovely.

Now /r/WellThatSucks is purely a place to post pictures of vacuum cleaners.

And /r/iPhone is only permitting posts that are pictures of Tim Cook.

All of these policy changes have been voted and agreed upon by the subreddits' users, so Reddit can't even complain that the mod teams are going against their users' wishes.

carotte,

@losttourist r/egg_irl became a place to post pictures of actual eggs, great stuff

carotte,

@00 @Monologue @DoctorForesight @suslord Would it be feasible for Google to close the source of Chromium and/or Blink or do they have licenses that prevent it?

ivy, to random

what if i self hosted a link aggregator for the reddit 196 community to switch over to

carotte,

@ivy That would be amazing! I’d join that in a heartbeat
