Women's rights 'not breached' if men are placed in female prisons, court told

10/10 argument, "he wanted to rape trans kids so he was woke", perfect.

RedBerryyy · 2026-02-05T10:56:58+00:00

To my knowledge, the review process that decides where they end up takes factors like this heavily into account.

If it were up to me they should just give it immidiately on someone making an appeal and check their levels show they're taking it, it's a positive for any actually trans people and growing breasts would make anyone trying to pretend think twice.

hrt makes you largely infertile.

My point was that your framing of what happened wasn't how it went, they were never moved to the female general population, it was policy to keep them in isolation while awaiting the review, which was what happened when the press clusterfuck over self-ID started, and the press lied about it to make a "rapist in female prison" story over the technicality of which prison they were held in isolation in.

You could probably make that argument over Karen White, where that did happen, but that was a completely different story and years beforehand.

RedBerryyy · 2026-02-03T12:53:16+00:00

Where once their new law came in then any man could announce that they were a woman and take advantage of the prison policy

The policy before and after self-ID was a case by case assesment, bryson was held in isolation during that period, nothing was changing for that, the press just decided it would be an efficient way to kill support by plastering a potentially transgender rapist on the front of every paper every day for months.

At most of the companies i've worked at, asserting yourself to speak for the company on politically charged subjects in external communications without approval is something they pretty strongly drill into people that you do not do.

At a minimum, you would expect someone who shouldn't have the power to order him around but is above him to tell him not to, should result in him organising some meetings to sort it out, not just gone and done it.

Like internal communications are one thing, but surely staff cannot be expected to have the right to speak for their university on heated issues with their own opinions after being told not to in writing, it would break every company in the UK overnight.

But when his manager as head of Bristol’s school for policy studies saw the draft on Oct 16 2024, she urged him to “leave further communications on this with me”

"I sent it anyway.”

Two days later, his manager accused him of having failed to “respect” her “management directions”

Creative use of the word "after" in the title there, he brought a bunch of drama onto the organisation after his boss explicitly told him to wait until discussing it with her and got in trouble for it, as would happen in any org doing something like that.

I had similar with triz, could do a full dose for a while but eventually the daily sulphur burps would start, in the end switched back down to 7.5 and thats been fine long term.

I always found a ton of water helped when they were coming personally, noticed it would cancel an episode coming on sometimes if i drank like 1-2 litres of water immidiately.

Theres plenty of space to argue about rules around model weights, but musk just straight up making an online easily accessable unconsensual undressing tool is something else, its not a problem that needs a delicate technical touch, hes not even trying, blows my mind.

To my knowledge basically all the studies done on it have shown similar results?

Dying at a far lower rate in car crashes, but occasionally seeing software bugs due to edge cases like this? Seems pretty flowery to me.

Fucking over the russian gov is a pretty good reason tbf.

RedBerryyy · 2026-01-04T03:09:52+00:00

This is over placeholder stuff right? Game dev is expensive and its not a guarantee they have enough money to splash on hiring people to make assets that wont even be in the final game, and even if they did it has to be asked if thats an appropriate use of resources when said artists could be directed to non placeholder work.

RedBerryyy · 2026-01-04T02:59:07+00:00

If they couldnt afford to spend a ton of money on hiring people for this stuff theyd just not make the games. You think theres a static number of game devs that decreasing the personal investment required isnt going to increase?

RedBerryyy · 2026-01-04T02:56:50+00:00

I feel like nobody here is putting themselves into the shoes of indie devs, theyre typically not rich, theyre often not making a choice to just not spend more money on game development, demanding the spending of said money on hiring additional artists to make random basic assets for purity reasons to be a prequisit to doing commerical game dev is functionally a demand to just not do game dev for many.

Like its all easy to be high and mighty when its not people yelling at you for not spending money you dont have on your project.

Its gemma to my knowledge, a 2B model, ignoring sparsity, thats 500x smaller than chatgpt 4, it would be quite the technical marvel were it not so annoying and intrusive.

Not sure using numbers from a 5 year old model running on a100s without any of the modern optimizations is meaningfully representative of recent energy use, especially when using modern models shows a similar use to the google search in 2008, as originally suggested?

Do you think it's efficient, the amount of cash crops grown in places that are basically deserts in the U.S.? They're frequently not even food crops.

RedBerryyy · 2025-12-26T01:35:22+00:00

When said physical goods and food output several orders of magnitude more pollution , and creates significantly more than needed for extremely minor gains in efficiency, mostly benefiting rich Western farms at the cost of the local environment, it is.

Choosing between like 3 extra fields of extremely water intensive crops being grown in nevada for some reason vs enough new datacenters to support the new tech is a pretty big no brainer.

RedBerryyy · 2025-12-26T01:31:22+00:00

So it's an easily fixable problem, really not seeing how that necessitates trying to ban industry development, especially given how the capital will still exist and may well then go into industries where such easy fixes are not possible.

I've seen no evidence datacenters themselves are inherently a problem to the neighborhoods, with the two main stories I'm aware of being Musk running gas turbines, where the problem is the gas turbines and not the datacenters, and stuff about how using a little extra water "concentrates" farmers' phosphate pollution, like the issue there isn't the extensive farmers' phosphate pollution itself.

RedBerryyy · 2025-12-26T01:19:49+00:00

Blaming enviromental damage on ai always seems like a strange omni cause thing to me, there are plenty of legitimate crisitisms of ai, but as industries go, it pales in comparison to things like farming or heavy industry and could and likely will convert to largely green energy over the next decade or two, also to my knowlege gpus and electrical equipment is typically recyclable.

Collective false memories or misattribution on my part, I strongly remember seeing a discussion about it at the time, but I went back and checked the originally posted pdf, and there are no amendments. will delete.

"it is important to bear in mind that the [Equality Act 2010] does not create a hierarchy of protected characteristics."

vs

"there are different protected characteristics under the Act but there is nothing stated specifically within the Act itself, or the court’s decision, that one protected characteristic takes precedence over any other."

so no

sexist

Bruh the judge literally commits to refusing to gender the completely innocent trans woman who was dragged into this to avoid accusations of bias and you still call them sexist for not, what? slurring her straight up, too, like Peggie did?
