  • You have another slot most likely, it’s just populated by the Wifi card, If you’re willing to sacrifice that and use one of those tiny USB wifi adapters you can use that as your second slot with a little adapter to convert between E key to M key. Also have to use a 2230 SSD since the longer ones won’t fit in the spot.





  • Yeah the amount that it’s offensive is dependent on the context, but that’s really true of any descriptive term. In those contexts it’s the insults or animosity that determine offensiveness, not the descriptive terms.

    I.e. “those dirty fucking cyclists” in this phrase which would be offensive to cyclists it is the insult and the animosity that make it offensive, not the descriptive term itself.

    Obviously it’s different when you use actual slurs to describe the person but in the situations described with use of cisgender that usually isn’t the case (there are slur uses of cis but they’re rare and not used much, therefore have low recognition).








  • I don’t and will not use blocking for users basically for that reason, it doesn’t actually solve anything it’s just pretending things are okay for you when they aren’t for everyone else. It’s probably the reason why reporting doesn’t happen as much as it should.

    Even in harassment it is particularly useless because even though you stop seeing them and getting notifications they can continue replying in your threads, they can even use that to turn people against you. If it at least prevented posting and commenting on your profile I’d use it in those situations, but as it stands it doesn’t, so it’s useless to me, because if somebody is harassing me, the last thing I want to do is hide them while allowing them to keep harassing me, it gives them mote opportunities to cause trouble and removes my opportunity to report them for that trouble.







  • Which doesn’t make sense. Therefore my confusion.

    There are people who do not identify as having a gender, this is commonly referred to as “Agender”. People who identify as Agender may not identify with the concept of gender, some may attempt to present gender neutral, while others may not make an effort to present any specific way. It’s one of the many NonBinary identities, that is people who don’t identify as exclusively male or female. I can understand though that for some it might be confusing as it has only been receiving mainstream recognition relatively recently.



  • I think they’re trying to argue that transgender women aren’t real women and that respecting them and allowing them to use spaces that align with their gender identity is endangering women.

    That’s how their comment reads to me, the way they dismissed the meme gives off those vibes.
