I feel attacked.

I may be wrong since it seemed to mostly gloss over deriving new errors, but this article gave me the impression that it’s not much different from a predefined thiserror type.

It’s always laissez-faire capitalism until some big company has issues, then all of a sudden it’s state capitalism.

Anyway, supposedly the government doesn’t have a board seat, so it should have limited power. However, who knows what the unspecified “limited exceptions” are for it to be allowed to vote. I don’t really think this makes much difference from the status quo other than the US being able to pressure Intel slightly more easily and further tying Intel to the US. However, it’s probably something to watch in case the government starts trying to vacuum up other shares to gain majority control, voting power, etc. If something like that happens, I’d be wary of using consumer Intel products.

Mm, sounds about what I’d expect of you.

Just doing my part to provide as little empathy to you as you provide to others.

Compared to other competitive swimmers, yes, he was. 500th ranked in just the USA college system means you’re never getting anywhere close to being a professional swimmer competing at world championships or the olympics. Never. Not even close.

You really love ignoring everything other than the 500 free.

Since you brought up the Olympics, I wonder how many of her competitors (other than obviously Douglass) actually made it.

Incorrect.

Unless you’re talking about pretty much worthless pool records, I am indeed correct. Since you love calling me incorrect, how about you actually provide some numbers other than an unsubstantiated ranking from a letter written by someone supposedly om behalf of anomymous teammates. She did not set NCAA records, USA records, etc., unlike someone else she competed against.

Grow up.

Right back at you, ma’am.

Where?

I literally wrote in the parenthetical which term you used. Are you blind?

Went from a “bad” mens swimmer to the best womens swimmer while swimming basically the same times as pre-transition. There’s nothing to say that even if Lia didn’t “transition” that he would have improved his times.

I think I’m done. You’re just repeating conservative talking points without actually thinking about what you’re writing. Lia Thomas was never a bad swimmer. As mentioned, the improvement in her rankings was within normal bounds for three years. You’ve also curiously avoided noticing how the other rankings were below 1st despite her starting at a higher ranking in men’s competitions. Likewise, none of her times have ever blown away the competition. She didn’t set records. The 1st place finish isn’t even in the top 50 all-time for NCAA.

I feel like I’m talking with my relatives who voted for Trump. Given that you don’t even have the decency to use the correct pronouns, kindly go fuck yourself conservacuck.

Lmao joining north korea in having an “encrypted” messenger pre-installed I see.

It’s obvious you don’t actually have a researched opinion since you just used the wrong term for a trans woman (they said trans men, in case they edit it).

You seem to, once again, be ignoring that on top of the decrease from transitioning, they are still a human being, and thus age and practice like any other human being. From sophomore year to their redshirt senior year, they grew, trained, etc. like any athlete. Expecting them to just drop 15% or whatever from their sophomore time and never improve from that is completely idiotic.

The numbers you are using I’ve only seen from that letter made by people complaining about her, frequently posted everywhere by conservative sources. Also, it’s fucking obvious she’d have slower times. That is the entire purpose of requiring trans atheletes to be on hormones for a couple years.

EDIT: I’ve looked into the 462 number more, and I’m further convinced it’s either made up or not an official ranking (i.e. from some practice run). Also, if you’re gonna pull some random quote, give your source. One of the very first results when I search “lia thomas 462” is the Daily Wire, which does not inspire much confidence in your sources. The other results are a Wikipedia quote from the letter I mentioned, and a random comment on the site for a swimming magazine.

She swam for the men’s team 2019-2020 while undergoing hormone therapy. Then there was a year break because of COVID. Then she swam for the women’s team 2021-2022. The difference was over two years.

EDIT: Actually, the 500th place stat was from 2018-2019, so it was over three years.

EDIT 2: Also, she went from 554th to 5th. The other two are basically not even worth mentioning since she went from 65th to 1st and 32nd to 8th over three years.

EDIT 3: Also, regarding your “the same people” bit, a large chunk of the people she’d have competed against would have graduated and been replaced by underclassmen. This is how college works.

It should also be noted that a college athlete’s times and rankings would presumably improve every year. Freshmen competing against seniors are just less likely to win (in most sports at least). IIRC I saw an analysis of her rankings that indicated the jump was within normal bounds for year-over-year improvement.

The constant kernel drama is honestly kind of frustrating.

I think if they kept the features but made it close everything by default it’d be pretty good (asking if you want to save before closing). I basically don’t see a real reason to keep stuff open with apps like this, honestly.

I’m ngl this looks somewhat useful minus the copilot crap. Having lists and headers and so on are useful for actually taking notes.

I’m building multiple patchsets on a laptop. How tf do you expect millions of lines of even somewhat optimized code to compile in a minute or two? The configuration by itself wastes like half of that, not to mention nix taking 2 minutes to evaluate because specializations are slow af. It in fact takes more like 2-3 hours for them to finish.

I’ve never used them, but if you want streaming, you can use Moonlight/Sunshine. It’d be very cool if a project integrated everything together, so you could choose whether to download the games or stream them from the server.

I’m planning to, I’m waiting for the kernel to finish building rn lol

EDIT: PR got merged BTW (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/431115).

You’re supposed to be able to use lib.kernel.unset to unset them. In any case, that’s just one problem. The main issue is the entire option is ignored because of a typo in nixpkgs.

I’m gonna be honest, I use NixOS, but the docs fucking suck, and a number of things are just broken in nixpkgs. For instance, I recently discovered the structuredExtraConfig option for patching the kernel straight up does not work. This means you cannot unset any kernel options, which means some kernel patches won’t work unless you manually supply the entire kernel config.

EDIT: what’s even more annoying about it not working is that it fails to apply silently. In other words, your kernel tries to compile and then an hour later it fails because your config changes weren’t applied.
