@emmy@transfem.social

I'm a person. I'm trans, programmer, stutterer, Muslim, married person.

I like interacting with people. All replies, boosts, quote posts, and DMs welcome. Unless I explicitly tell you to stop. This is reciprocal: I assume people post because they want interactions, and if they tell me to stop I will stop and I won't take it badly.

When I post about something I don't like, feel free to tell me if I'm wrong and the thing is good actually.

If I post something vague, it's because I want to talk about it but I'm not sure if anyone is interested. If you reply I will give more details.

My default reaction is ๐Ÿ’™. All my hug reactions are platonic. I want to squish the cheeks of all the cuties on my timeline.

Current yak-shaving goal: watching Neon Genesis Evangelion so I can read an article about the Nix situation.

Something called Android System Intelligence used 46% of my battery today and what the fuck, man

emmy,

@onelson Huh. Yesterday my phone was at less than 40% by noon. It usually doesn't get this low until 7-8 PM. Maybe I'm having the same issue.

If anyone has any more useful key plugin ideas I'm listening.

emmy,

@ChaosKitsune Is it possible to add a button (widget?) that takes me directly to a list? I find switching lists kinda slow in the current UI.

Me, 1 day after spending Herculean effort to keep my WordPress website running I should shut down my WordPress website

emmy,

@mcc Shutting it down is your reward for keeping it running. You earned it.

Dear autocomplete,

Can you please stop being weird about the word "body"?

Letting video uploaders to choose a thumbnail was a mistake.

Back in my day, YouTube just chose a random frame from the video and things were fine.

Now everyone tries to make their best shocked face to get clicks. Also red arrows and circles? I have no idea what these are supposed to mean.

So when will we have tech companies who are going to disrupt time zones... and not in the useless "everyone should just use UTC" way!

I want it so that morning in, say, idk, KL happens at the same instant in time as morning in Delhi happens at the same instant in time as morning in Makkah happens at the same instant in time as morning in Moscow happens at the same instant in time as morning in Berlin happens at the same instant in time as morning in Madrid happens at the same instant in time as morning in Montreal happens at the same instant in time as morning in SF happens at the same instant in time as morning in Seattle happens at the same instant in time as morning in Tokyo happens at the same instant in time as morning in [insert placename here]...
I believe there's gonna be a huge market for that! :02smile:

emmy,

@koakuma They should invent an earth that's flat, so the sun shines on all of it at the same time.

Judging from the reactions, I wasn't the only one who saw that?

You know what would be funny? A honeypot unauthenticated VNC server that, when connected, shows @vncresolver page. It's the equivalent of someone staring at a supposedly-hidden camera.

OMG finally LLMs are useful for something.

Now excuse me while I go some, uhh, research with Google Gemini.

RE: https://botsin.space/users/egg_irl_bot/statuses/112245596274851537

emmy,

I changed my mind. LLMs are useless. โ€‹:bugcat_angry:โ€‹

Stage 2.7 of TC39

What? โ€‹:neocat_confused:โ€‹

emmy,

I know what TC39 is. I'm just confused why there are decimal stage numbers.

Hi, I'm Emmy.

I'm a person. I'm trans, programmer, stutterer, Muslim, married person.

I'm a person, and I have needs and wants. I have to keep reminding myself of this because I tend to forget it and revert to an NPC-like entity that just does what society/other people expect. I'm trying to actually enjoy existing for once.

I'm trans. I was born with a male physical body, but I wish I wasn't. The major sign that made me realize this is that when I think of myself as a woman, I feel like a person. But when I think of myself as a man, I feel absolutely nothing. However, I have not, and will not, transition biologically or socially (except this Fediverse account) for reasons that will be clear later in this post. I can manage dysphoria most of the time by having an intense feeling of depersonalization. This body is not mine, I just live in it and direct its every action.

I'm a programmer. I love computers and programming and nerdy technical things and hyper niche details about topics only a handful of people know about. Reading documentation is a perfectly fine way to spend my free time. I'm obviously a Linux user, and I use Fedora.

I'm a stutterer. I've had a very bad stutter ever since I can remember. I can't finish a single sentence without stuttering at least twice. I let it haunt my life for a very long time but now I have accepted it. If someone can't understand me, it's on them to ask me to repeat myself. I'm done beating myself over it and avoiding situations for fear of stuttering. However, I still hate phone calls and voice chat because the other parties can't tell when I pause because of a stutter or if I finished talking.

I'm a Muslim. I'm religious and I believe in it and I do everything that being a Muslim implies. This is the main reason I don't want to transition. I understand some people here get hurt when I talk about the details in public, but I'm happy to discuss it in private (DMs or CW'ed follower-only posts).

I'm married to a wonderful woman. I was wrong to keep her in the dark about my transness for so long. But I have finally came out to her and she is very supportive of me. We also have two kids.

Miscellaneous things about me if anyone cares enough: I'm a millennial, so that puts a range on my age. I live north of the equator and east of the Prime Meridian. My native language is Arabic.

Since the migration has been delayed, I might as well post the introduction post I wrote.

Cool, we have drake emojis now: โ€‹:drakeNope:โ€‹ โ€‹:drakeDope:โ€‹
I used neocat thumbs down and thumbs up for this earlier (โ€‹:neocat_thumbsdown:โ€‹ โ€‹:neocat_thumbsup:โ€‹) but they don't capture the spirit of the meme.

emmy,

Now I think we need that pink haired girl they keep using at r/egg_irl.
