7 Things You Should Know Before Switching to GrapheneOS
  • Here's some completely unrelated crap

    ArE yOU StILL prO GAY!!??

    Yes? People should have the right to be gay

    CW: SA

    The fact that some men rape and assault other people has nothing to do with anyone else being gay or not.

    It would also be helpful for you to know that most pedophiles who attack boys (and probably the men doing the raping in prison) are actually straight. [1] Again, nothing to do with gay.

    Wtf are you on lol

    [1] https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/intelligence-report/2011/10-anti-gay-myths-debunked

    Anti-gay activists who make that claim allege that all men who molest male children should be seen as homosexual. But research by A. Nicholas Groth, a pioneer in the field of sexual abuse of children, shows that is not so. Groth found that there are two types of child molesters: fixated and regressive. The fixated child molester — the stereotypical pedophile — cannot be considered homosexual or heterosexual because "he often finds adults of either sex repulsive" and often molests children of both sexes. Regressive child molesters are generally attracted to other adults, but may "regress" to focusing on children when confronted with stressful situations. Groth found, as Herek notes, that the majority of regressed offenders were heterosexual in their adult relationships.

    The Child Molestation Research & Prevention Institute notes that 90% of child molesters target children in their network of family and friends, and the majority are men married to women. Most child molesters, therefore, are not gay people lingering outside schools waiting to snatch children from the playground, as much religious-right rhetoric suggests.

    They won't let me reproduce

    I have a lot of questions but the answer to those questions is probably incel bs so I'm not gonna start haha

  • Where do I start to make something like this?

    Apologies if this is the wrong community, happy to remove and post elsewhere.

    I'm essentially a beginner to programming. I know some python (made a game of hangman with ASCII art for example) but nothing more complicated than that.

    I've been wanting to learn some programming, whether it's python or something else, and I think I've decided on a project I want to make (if possible?).

    I aiming to make an emulation front end/GUI selector. I know there are things like RetroArch that are great, but it doesn't have access to all emulation tools (e.g. doesn't have Xbox/PS2/switch).

    I'd picture just opening one program GUI that can select the "system" you want to use, then it provides a list of games.

    The complexity that I can see is that even if I can run the actual emulator in a container or use a custom GUI to open the emulator it won't 1) be able to show a games list within the same GUI and 2) it won't be an easy back and forth to change emulators.

    Not looking for anyone to solve the problem for me, just hoping for some advice on where to start like languages and what I should be trying to learn etc. or if it's even possible. I'm aware there's a high chance it's not!

    I've got years to learn and build before my kid might use it, not in a rush.

    Thanks!

    Progress Tuesday - What is your child's latest achievement?
  • We've gotten our 1yo eating more solid foods rather than purees and I've found an oats recipe that is generally liked. If they eat enough of it at dinner then we've gotten a sleep in until 5:30am without a 3am bottle. It's a slow process but now there's more solids I'm optimistic we'll be able to sleep through the night soon. They apparently eat a heap at daycare but they've been hesitant with solid foods with us, maybe we just need to go for the stuff with more flavor. Terrified about choking though so maybe it's more our hesitance.

    Also walking with only one hand held for a while rather than holding up both hands.

    Growing up really quickly every day.

  • Please let this be a turning point...

    We've transitioned our 1yo out of our bed and to their own cot. We had to co-sleep after they puked on their old cot and refused to sleep at all once it was cleaned. Every time we've gotten them used to the cot something messes it up like travelling etc. but it's finally looking like something stable.

    I was amazed the other night because it was the first time ever we didn't need to hold a hand or pat them to sleep, I could just lay them down in bed and watched them drift off.

    The sleep is a little better but still not sleeping through the night and also constantly sick from daycare so they keep waking up cause of the coughing. When they were with us it was a lot easier to put the pacifier back in and go back to sleep but now we have to get out of bed to send them back to sleep.

    Then there's also the night feeds... we're still doing a 10:30pm bottle and another bottle anywhere from 3am to 7am, it all depends on how much they ate during the day. Which they've now decided they don't like any of the food we make even though it's exactly the same stuff that would be at daycare. Which then prolongs the cycle of not eating enough and needing night feeds and then not eating much because there was milk overnight. I feel like we have to cut the night feeds somehow but it feels really cruel to starve them when they're used to it...

    I just hope getting them to their own bed will be a positive turning point and we'll actually be sleeping through the night soon. I know other people have it worse but everyone I talk to directly has babies that sleep from 8pm to 8am with no stirring and no bottle, it's making me feel like I'm messing something up. Overall still feels like we're taking positive steps though.

    Thanks for reading the rant.

    Noob Question Thread: Ask Any Questions About Linux!
  • I feel like I'm getting performance below what I've been getting on windows for the same games when I'm booting in Linux. Top of the head example is COD WWII, the gameplay and cutscenes stagger a lot but runs fine on windows with the same hardware. I've checked that my graphics card is being used by Linux but I just feel like I'm missing some settings that would optimise it.

    I'm running Linux mint with a NVIDIA GTX1070. I know there's some issues with NVIDIA and Linux but would that be the full reason?

  • When you're writing a song, how do you know it isn't just a song you've heard before but don't recognise?

    I'm currently in the process of writing a song. I've got a tune and I'm putting the lyrics together but I'm always concerned that any tune I think of might just be another song I've heard somewhere randomly that I don't remember hearing.

    Do I just have a shitty memory or is this a problem that other people have too?

    Nahiri's Lithoforming

    Hi! I'm tweaking my burn deck and had a question about the wording/rules around Nahiri's Lithoforming.

    The text states:

    > Sacrifice X lands. For each land sacrificed this way, draw a card. You may play X additional lands this turn. Lands you control enter the battlefield tapped this turn.

    My question was whether the additional lands have to be played while the spell is resolving or at any time during the rest of the turn? I'm guessing the latter because otherwise it would say "you may play X additional lands", but just wanted to check.

    Looking to combine this with acidic soil and valakut for some fun where I don't take much/any damage.

  • GrapheneOS often picks up security flaws in the android open source project and fixes them before google goes. I won't claim they fix everything but I've seen enough examples of things they fix over AOSP that make me doubt they wouldn't have fixed something like that (on top of keeping everything updated). Maybe you weren't referring to Graphene but still worth a shoutout for being a very (the most?) secure operating system.
