overgrown arms dealer with a flag upset they can't do whatever they want anymore! oh no!!

lol get fucked

i didn't expect to see the Hague Invasion Act be tested in my lifetime

one of my two reasons to have orchiectomy was, explicitly and specifically, "so that i can be on testosterone", which i feel is by far the single funniest reason to have orchiectomy

OH: "i think death is scary until you die. and then it feels less bad"

@munin but yeah i ended up on
- yes, i'm asexual
- no, i don't *hate* sexuality
- it serves a perfectly clear and reliable instrmental purpose for me that doesn't match what people assume. yes, you have to read the proverbial manual

gender

bitstuffing

@munin i _think_ she did it so that she'd have an easier time raping me? she did something similar (not literally the same actions but same general idea) to someone else

@munin i spent a year with no hrt at all after orchi and to this day it feels better to exist that way

the main reason we still use estradiol (injectables, too) is to reduce fatigue (primary) and prevent bone density loss (secondary)

it does not bring me joy, i don't really like the mental state it puts me in, and (unsurprisingly) i do not really enjoy any sort of sexuality while on it, vs. with no sex hormones at all

wait, the linux tap device is secretly a _socket_?

the type of python application development where you read a decent amount of linux kernel code

ok so i was looking at the wrong file. tap.c is only used for macvtap.c and ipvtap.c

however, the tun device is also secretly a socket, so the conclusion still holds

cursed

everything about this is horrible and undocumented

type of girl who feels that living spaces are acutely unsafe. not specific ones, just... all of them

meanwhile, "a literal hole under a building" or "a shack in the woods" feel comfortable to curl up in

@foone @manawyrm lmfao https://mastodon.social/@whitequark/112282304748081968

43/48 Mbps is about the highest throughput we could get with basically unoptimized [for this application] Python code so far

@manawyrm hey, i get 1-2 ms end to end ping! that's not so bad

@manawyrm it feels like normal web browsing for the most part

re bufferbloat, buffer management with glasgow gets really hard due to the complex interplay between usb, fx2 bus, and python... i'm actually quite happy how it works with the default settings

@foone uh... so, what you do is you take More Progesterone until it makes you high.

however!

it might very well cause you to suddenly lose consciousness. so please do not do this in any situation where you might fall. because you could seriously hurt yourself. (i did once! six broken bones. though i was also on a scooter)
