The research was fundamentally flawed and should not be used as evidence that one group is better than the other. It does, however, highlight the problem of biased research that stigmatises everything about us.

A cishet guy in my FB timeline lost a bet and has to spend all day wearing the jersey of a sportsball team he hates.

At first I didn't understand why it was such a big deal. It's just sportsball. It's just clothes... oh.

This must be like the cishet guy version of dysphoria.

I'm coining this as 'Sportsball Dysphoria'.

Apparently mathematicians think I should use the term "large positive integers" and not "big naturals"

So like... which one of you is the handler, and which one of you is the mech pilot?

remember kids: the point of the html "class" attribute is to list out the explicit formatting of every element on your webpage.

CSS was supposed to split formatting from HTML! and it did.

now instead of horrible HTML like <font size="7" color="red">, we have CSS!
So our HTML can instead look like:
<div class="size-7 color-red">

note: you'll need to include a few hundred KB of CSS libraries to make this work properly, but that's the price we have to pay for elegance

The previous post was inspired by me having to extract the bluetooth link key from one OS and import it to the other, again.

So, a fun thing about dual booting and bluetooth is that your different OS will be using the same hardware and so they'll have the same address, which means that your bluetooth device will not be able to tell them apart.

This has consequences when your device is paired with one OS, and is trying to connect to the other OS.

Either you need to pair your device again every time you switch OS, or you need to extract the link key from one OS and import it to the other.

Touch & Go (2009) is a game that works in touchHLE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wecX4c0mUN8), but one of the most obscure; it's very difficult to get hold of it. But now, The Game Creators have very graciously given me permission to redistribute it on the touchHLE website!

https://touchhle.org/app-archive/

This is the beginning of a new touchHLE-related project: archiving of old games with developer permission. If you were a indie developer who made games in the early days of the iOS App Store and would like to help future generations to enjoy them, please get in touch! Thanks!

oh, the only way to pay for parking in this place I'm visiting is to download a regional parking app I will never use again? no thank you, I will simply drive directly into the sea

I have lived long enough to see the phase "there's an app for that" go from a marketing slogan to a threat
