A place with a high amount of queer and trans socialists that all the cishets on the fediverse mald about. The instance is something like 66% queer / queer adjacent and 51% are trans / trans adjacent. Essentially, a lot of people are very aggro about the fact that they have carved a safe space out for themselves prior to lemmy becoming popular recently. Tldr:
Here’s some of their demographic surveys.
Truly unhinged that they decided to come out on this. Fellas, you are fucking Swiss why throw yourself under the bus for the US election
less bootlicker trans community here than on reddit
yeah you could. though i dont see any evidence that the large open source llm programs like jan.ai or ollama are doing anything wrong with their program or files. chucking it in a sandbox would solve the problem for good though
you can check the process to see if its communicating at all. none of the big ones do. its possible someone could be fucking with the file though, before the safetensors format this was a big issue, and still sort of is afterwards. only DL from reputable sources
the other decent options are matrix and simplex chat, and mayyyybe session. matrix seems to have the most users and kick to it right now. out of those options. but yeah youre not gonna get the average tech illiterate person to get on a more complicated alternative to discord, essentially
Only reason I’d recommend signal to anyone is that its one of the few encrypted apps that doesnt have awful onboarding. A boomer can figure it out.
guess a lot of people that post there got banned? idk. i may make an account on ttrpgnetwork 🤔
itd be bad as a daily driver imo
I use a Windows VM (Tiny10 works ok here) in whatever lightweight linux OS I’m fucking with at the time. All my files and stuff are on a local server so I can swap distros easily if I want.
Usually it runs ok, can game, and I dont have to deal with restarting a bunch of stuff. I’ve been using CachyOS, not sure if I like it yet
why does the female cat have clothes on but tom has no clothes on
with alerts to cart you away if they detect you have trans balls 😔
yeah ive been considering it
i do have integrated graphics and a gpu, though i dont know if the bios has one set to run independently or something
happen to know of any distros that dont have this limitation and operate similarly to qubes? i havent heard of anything i know its a longshot 🙃
but maybe i could work on programming and making this a bit smoother if i like the rest of what qubes offers
for me i will likely play some games or use proprietary apps in windows or something and swap back to linux. i also develop for linux sometimes so being able to swap distros quickly and with good efficiency while being able to share files easily would be nice.
i dont know how viable qubes is for this use case. i like the concept of privacy but i dont need 100% lockdown for each app.
i hate dual booting with a passion, and i also hate how much my base OS interferes with the operation of a virtualized os.
yeah i was just wondering if there was a quick chart somewhere so i could be lazy
i have a ibm laptop with a really old ssd running and the health of everything looks very good. i never wrote a whole lot to the ssd, i feel like this computer could last 30 years or more without going fully obsolete. its just a basic laptop with not very good hardware that i use for looking up information during a tabletop game, read a pdf, or to browse the internet. sometimes i message people on it. perfect for my use case, and probably will never need anything more than this. it always has to be plugged in because the battery sucks now, but its lightweight and portable so its not a big deal.
Well, cool, but you’re a highschooler so you don’t have much real world experience, though being a closeted queer as a highschooler is definitely a hellish and radicalizing experience, I’ve been there. Also, as a trans person thats been transitioned for a long time, you begin to realize the number of allies you have is very few and debate is very much a waste of time (fun for cis people, terrifying for trans people) and its far more important to build independence and resilience for the community and remove awful people from your life. Hexbear has mutual aid drives and housing support groups that have saved many trans people from homelessness and even their lives. Think: does SJW or lemmy.world do the same, or are they just all hot air and complain about ‘tankies’ in a vague way while doing nothing? Is it fine to be rude to people who think debating your existence and the existence of other marginalized people is good fun?
