The bigger change is that the victim no longer needs to prove they physically fought back for it to be considered non-consentual.

Holy fucking shit.

Glove80 vs Moonlander Mark I? [opinions needed]

I plan to buy my first split keyboard (forever) very soon and would like to hear y'all's opinions on the Glove80 (switch: Kailh Choc v1 Brown Tactile) and Moonlander (switch: Kailh Copper or Cherry MX Brown) two. I've already searched for threads and comments on the matter a few days ago through kbin, so any links to them you...

I've never tried any particular switches. I'm going into this fresh. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Choc V1 browns had no bump for me and were somehow both scratchy and mushy.

This sounds unappealing, especially the "mushy" part. 😬

A while ago, I had a comment auto-removed on WPT and got a message it was because my account was "not in good standing." When I messaged the WPT mods, they explained that they were test piloting a new tool the admins plan to use.

I'mma need some sauce for dat pasta. That's too wild to not post screenshots.

Thanks. Shit's deliciously wrong.

edit: But you know what... having recently watched The Blackenning (2023)... it honestly feels very... White.

it's super irratating to be on a sub, talking about friggin Spiderman's webfluid or something

Having recently watched the latest Spiderman movie, wut?

r/PublicFreakout's constant unrestrained 'isms, especially towards trans, women, and African descended. I only was subbed for the occassional interesting post and to call out the bs for those who couldn't see it.

r/JustUnsubbed's (iirc) noticeable political shift towards (i'mma say it; cover your eyes, children!) the Right after the recent situation with the game that shall not be named and she who shall not be named. Also, see above.

People shitting on and lying about subs specifically made for marginalized groups. e.g.: When r/BlackPeopleTwitter was blessed by Black Jesus with his "Country Club Thread" flair, people elsewhere started calling them racist and supported their claims by over exaggerating the filtration system as "only Blacks allowed" when there was a whole-ass stickied post explaining that people just needed to claim to be Black, BIPOC, or an Ally and prove it by whatever means the mods dictated. My Afro-ass asked if I could just get the Ally userflair and was told (privately and kindly) that, and I'm going off memory here, "Just like we don't allow Blackface we don't allow Whiteface." 🤷🏿‍♂️

Could probably go on, but I'm busy. ✌🏿

Unless I'm thinking of a different sub, I never noticed that about it. Granted, I've only seen a handful of posts on the front page and browsed it a few times recently.

(Kotaku|Tumblr)InAction : I hate Kotaku but not for same reason peops in those subreddits hate them

iirc r/TumblrInAction was one of the documented hate groups I got massbanned for participating in. lul That's when I knew.

r/MenDrawingWomen didn't have a circlejerk feel overall. Quite a bit of disagreement and people saying "actually, I'm okay with this one >.>" while also being helpful. Some artists would submit their stuff for advice on "how to not end up here". People improving their work and others creating good examples of "men actually drawing women well" was celebrated. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Now go back and suggest that there isn't a "good" or "bad" way to draw women

I mean... "bad anatomy" posts were common. So were "where's her spine?" comments. In this context, the issue was unrealistic realism for women but not for men. I'll give an example that comes to mind. At one point (maybe last year), One Piece got dunked on for how the vast majority of its women were drawn. And the fans' defense? (the post was brought up in r/OnePiece, so people were discussing it) "The men are unrealistic too. Most guys don't look like that!"
Before anyone starts, ask yourself what the difference between physique and body-ody is. Before y'all miss the point, were the male and female characters designed the way the were for everyone's enjoyment or for a single demographic's?

As for the both sides of it, when it comes to viewers who're children, there most definitely is a "bad" way to draw people in general. Friendly reminder that people getting the wrong idea about their genitals from pornographic media is common... for both sexes.
inb4 definition of "children" 🙄

and that being horny doesn't make you a bad artist or a bad person, and see how that plays out. I bet you'll get banned, or at the very least downvoted into oblivion.

I'm not gonna bother countering this.
As for the rest of your comment, you've got points.

Shit, never thought about how the skin test could affect a mixed person. 🤔 Thanks for the comment.
I assumed the Ally tests were more thorough and harder to trick, but never looked into it.

Yeah~ I don't doubt anything you're saying. I'm visibly a brotha and "dark-skinned" (actually medium brown back home, but whatevs), so I was spared that shit. Definitely got some other shit, but 'eh. 😅

I will never be black enough or white enough or Latino enough.

Reminding me of (iirc) a Hispanic-American dude who explained a similar situation due to skin tone. As I recall it, he was "too light for the Black kids and too dark for the White kids," so he had nowhere to go growing up. Nobody wanted him at their table. 😐
Also, dat's fucked. Since we can't spoiler tag text, I'mma just speak my unsolicited opinion on it: You're racially all three and culturally which ever ones you identify with. How society treats you is a different matter.

You'd probably benefit from F.D Signifier's "I need a break so here's me reacting to Tik Toks" (timestamped) video and its many~ comments. Nebula version.
Also, here's his Black Men and Colorism on Screen video. Nebula version. Haven't watched it yet myself, but chances are it'll be... relevant atleast.

Well... a cat spits out a web ball in the latest Spiderman... does that work?

And, I'm just saying, those kinds of discussions are the worst place to run into some idiot that can't help but interject their personal politics, or mention their favorite candidates/pols for no reason.

Oh~ yeah, that sounds annoying af.

Majority of Americans Would Like to Return to Time Before Cell Phones, Internet, According to New Poll (www.thewrap.com)

Seventy-seven percent of middle-age Americans (35-54 years old) say they want to return to a time before society was “plugged in,” meaning a time before there was widespread internet and cell phone usage. As told by a new Harris Poll (via Fast Company), 63% of younger folks (18-34 years old) were also keen on returning to a...

F12 and searching that mass of incoherence for "maxdefault" (iirc) is how I grab YouTube thumbnails.

Xtreme Download Manager lets you do this with ease (and more) and can check for the latest yt-dlp version before downloading on its own.

The glove 80 is supposed to be getting a case soon from what their website says which will make that easier to lug around.

Seems like it has one now: https://www.moergo.com/collections/glove80-keyboards/products/glv80-soldered?variant=44253212377361

For whatever reason, the "c" in that link needed to be switched with "m" for it to work: https://kbin.social/m/ergomechkeyboards@lemmy.world
