  • long term ruleationship

    Jump

  • Really? Maybe I'm just weird about intimacy or something but my shortest relationship that wasn't a literal joke was like 3 years, most being 4. If people are frequently under that then I wonder why they're diving into relationships they don't have high confidence in... Do people count grindr hookups as relationship?.. I guess I've never been one for dating so...

  • So... How long term are we talking? "Til death do us part" like, two hours?

  • AI has a lot of pitfalls. It helps knowing how they work: tokens, context, training, harnesses and tools,... Because then nonsense like this makes a lot more sense; same for "count the R's in strawberry" type things. (For the record, I later told it to use JavaScript to manipulate strings to accomplish this task and it did a much better job. Still needed touchups of course)

    They work best when you know how to accomplish whatever it is you're asking it to do, and can point it in a direction that leverages its strengths, and avoid weeknesses (often tied to perception and dexterity). Something like ASCII art is nearly a worst-case scenario, aside from maybe asking a general purpose LLM to do math.

  • About the author...

    In March 2022, O'Malley was slated to speak at an NHS conference on gender dysphoria. The event was cancelled following complaints by NHS whistleblowers, researchers, and trans rights activists, who accused a majority of the speakers as having a "record of extreme prejudice towards trans people". Open Democracy said the speakers had "close links to proponents of anti-trans conversion therapies".

    On 10 May 2022, TD Mick Barry raised issue with O'Malley's invitation to the [education] conference, referring to a Twitter Spaces conversation in which she stated "I don't think you need to give empathy at all, none, zero. I think I should because I'm trying to understand them" when asked why woman should have sympathy for who they describe as autogynephiles.

    LGBTQIA+ activist Izzy Kamikaze also shared link to the released audio. O'Malley has sent a legal letter to Barry accusing him of defamation and sent similar language to Kamikaze for sharing the link

    In 2022, O'Malley appeared in a video produced by the Ickonic film company, which is largely owned by antisemitic conspiracy theorist David Icke

    (The space-lizards guy)

    In August 2025, the Irish Association for Counseling and Psychotherapy published a piece in which they criticised O'Malley and Genspect as holding an "anti-trans stance" and wanting to marginalise trans people, saying that psychotherapists needed to be alert to disinformation. In response, O'Malley initiated a legal case against them and the writer of the article for defamation.

    But I don't think her books should be banned or anything like that, even if she was malicious. And there's certainly an ounce of truth in her therapeutic work: there's a whole lot of people who are gender-questioning, nonbinary, or nonconforming, and they should be encouraged to explore those possibilities rather than just be smacked with the trans label. In that sense, I'm of the opinion that clinical psychology has broadly made an overcorrection (understandably...) and can be too eager to see patients as having GD. But for every person sharing a story about feeling like they were influenced into seeing themselves thru a trans lens by providers, there are many more who felt oppressed or denied or disbelieved when they sought care... So it's a difficult subject with a wide range of experiences.

    Having space and time for exploration and deconstruction is important. The problem is that there are lots of bad actors who hedge their bigotry with the same language as this to disguise their prejudice and push an agenda informed by nothing but fundamentalism or essentialism...

  • Hey, guys. Is it a good idea to dunk PC parts in isopropyl alcohol?

  • Help making sense of IPs and A records

    Jump

  • When port forwarding, you want that internal IP to be the internal address of the server on your LAN. That way, all port 443 traffic sent to your external ipv4 (as received by your router) is sent to whatever machine is hosting the web server or reverse proxy.

    Regarding the www sub domain cname, idk what your registrar is doing but it's common practice to redirected www to your base domain, or vise versa; so web visitors get a consistent experience whether they type www or not. It would probably be best to start fresh though

    I don't agree with all of those points, but that's the gist. The metadata issue is becoming a bigger factor. I hope things like katzenpost find massive success...

    As for the ecosystem: Element and Synapse are really the only viable implementations. Fluffychat is okay on android but that's about it; most lack features or are using outdated and vulnerable dependencies / are poorly maintained / etc.

    But it's not all negatives. One great thing about Matrix is how well they handle multiple devices. It's also been a security weak point, but not too bad and has (relatively) excellent ux (depending on impl...)

  • My group has been tinkering with matrix but the ecosystem is such a mess that I think we'll be going to xmpp-based solutions, and once the kinks are ironed out, migrating it to i2p

    Not to go all conspiracy-nut, but it feels like the net (at least the social spaces) is decaying, and it feels intentional / coordinated.
