One thing that exacerbates the problem is the values for gender and sex are reused. 'Male' can mean 'I identity as male gendered' or 'my chromosomes are XY' (choose one or both). If sex were consistently represented with different values (maybe as chromosomes XX, XY, others?), that might provide some clarity in good faith discussions. Finally, I'm not in medicine so YMMV.

Update: One thing I wanted to add: I also recognize that many discussions are 'not' in good faith and an informed participant will deliberately conflate the meanings of gender's and sex's values. Unfortunately, no recommendation can help a person whose mind is closed.

Edit: Added "Update". Adjusted original comment's casing.

It's pronounced 'Data'

The usage described by small44 is an excellent way to use social media. Real life hobbies and interests bring personal fulfillment, and using social media as a tool for exploring those interests is smart, not dumb.

Excellent. He's had enough delays. Five months is more than enough time as he'll have had 3 years to prepare for a trial such as this.

I'd taken for granted that he was dead, but now that Russian authorities are saying it, there's a chance he's still alive.

Haha, yeah, looks like they found Don Corneo's new lair.

I don't know if I'd want to live there, but I kind of like the aesthetic.

I've avoided Microsoft for years, but recently I've been reducing my Google use. I'm still on Gmail, and Street View is special, but I've been slowly replacing Google utilization:

  • Search: Duck Duck Go
  • Maps: Open Street Map, OsmAnd
  • Drive: Extra Hard Drives
  • Chrome: Firefox
  • Home: Home Assistant (WIP)

Upcoming projects include replacing my phone's Google-built Android image and transitioning to ProtonMail.

It's not one big project, it's lots of projects. It's worthwhile, though. Along the way, I've reconnected with my love of good tech and I've gained new hobbies like privacy and contributing to OSM.

Hearing Snake Man's level music was an unexpected surprise today. Mega Man 3 is my favorite of the orignal NES titles. Dr. Wily Stage 3 and 4 is also really good: https://piped.video/watch?v=2Y0pXbtvop0
