GREAT change is approaching. NIST will standardise prohibition of requirement of composing passwords from various character styles, and requirement for periodic password changes. These are harmful and obsolete rules. Now they will be treated as a cybersecurity weakness pages.nist.gov/800-63-4/sp800-

So just a quick search and i was able to find gendered language (he, she, they) used for animals back to 1914, there are probably older uses.

@GlasWolf @TabletopBellhop @rdonoghue

Most cases i see are facebook groups where that wouldnt fully track. Maybe

@C @realcaseyrollins

They has plenty of history as a gender neutral si gular back to 1375. As for aninals im not sure when we used they but it obvohsly makes sense since they have sex and is proper engliah today at least.

Generally you will pay a good deal **less** per month with a mortgage even with all the extras. REally wheree i think there is an argument to rent is if you dont want to be locked down to a location. If you want to move every few years a mortgage is **not** the way to go. But if you are going to keep the house until you own it(and perhaps even rent it out rather than sell if you move) then a mortgage is a great economic choice and it certainly isnt "hurting your ability to gain wealth" since it is both giving you collateral and saving you money over renting.

@freeschool I suspect that might piss off quite a few people, I like it :)

@freeschool Spoke to the team, we are about to have some major downtime in the next 24 hours to commit the update. Once the update is committed if everything checks out we will flip the switch on searching next

Agreed, evil with no real motivation, at least most forms of evil is motivated by at least greed lol.

@TabletopBellhop

I can half understand not going out of your way to add credit... but to go out of your way to remove it, like why?

@rdonoghue

@C

Its not about misgendering, thats just proper english. They has been used as the gender-neutral singular pronoun since 1375 (first citation in a dictionary). Its literally just the correct term if your speaking english, nothing more. It is not considered proper when discussing animals, that is reserved for inanimate objects (like casey's cup example).

@janrosenow

This doesnt track with me because they arent mutually exclusive categories. Heat and transport can both be facilitated by either electricity or fossil fuel means.

Iam watching the "A quiet place" movies and all I keep thinking is how the people who snore were likely the first to go...

@Strandjunker Trying to research this as it sounds quite damning... but the sources look highly suspect. For example the key cards not working, I only find the same source repeating this, some admitidly biased news source (progressive) and worse yet the primary source they claim is their own source is anonymous, so basically no source at all.

So unless you have a reliable source that point looks like complete fiction.

As for the presley button being missing, that was explained. She took over the office and had recently moved, the previous congress person she was taking the officer of had their officer marked to be cleared out. So it was simply a clerical error according to official sources. Which of course makes perfect sense since she had no special attachment to Trump and wouldnt be any more of a target than anyone else.

@indivisibleteam

Ironically ive found about the same amount of hate speech in the fediverse as a whole. The difference isnt the network but rather the tools you have to interact with it. Here i can block servers and lets me control my feed. There you cant really block people in large quantities so you cant solve the issue. But the background rate of hate speech seems about the same to me.

@mapto Yes, this particular batch doesnt have any but thats only because the fiber arrives tomorrow, for now it will be almost entierly insoluble but i plan to add in some soluble fiber too if i can find a good source without carbs, of which there are plenty.

@sabbatical psyllium husks was my current top candidate for insoluble fiber at least. I've used flax seeds in this recipie int he past for both fat, fiber, and protein. It works well but the hemp hearts were a bit better in striking a balance. IIRC the hemp hearts had lower carbs or higher protein or something. I need to check again but i do remember flaxseeds were originally in the recipe but i removed them to get a better macro balance.

@sabbatical yea the key would be finding a fiber source with 0 carbs (not counting the fiber itself).. not sure if chia seeds fit that bill, i love their flavor though. Also id want a 50/50 mix of insoluble and soluble fiber, so i need to research the best fiber source still.

@freemo ahh i can almost taste it from those descriptions! don’t think i’ve seen coconut cream on sale around here; i’ll have to look around and give this a go. now that i think about it, i still have a big bag of hemp hearts from when i used to eat them a lot, but have fallen out of the habit! almond milk sounds like a good flavour combo to pair with the hearts as a starting base anyway.
