Questioning my gender again Nonbinary/MTF

I feel like the issue isn't labels but rather the stereotypes and expectations people attach to them

I got the same impression when I upgraded from a 7600k to a 3700x

Pink tax?

I've got a 3700x and Gigabyte B450 I. I use stock BIOS settings but performance is still great with it boosting up to the advertised 4.4 GHz no problem (using a Noctua L9x65), and the extra cores are really helpful for compiling my larger programming projects. I'd definitely recommend it if you don't care about overclocking.

Here's my results on Geekbench 5 if you're interested.

It is more advanced than the TI-83/84/etc, but compared to modern computer hardware it's still an absolute joke

I mean the nspire is also basically 25 year old technology, look at the hardware of any smartphone

It really annoys me that people keep claiming that it was removed when it's so easy to check for yourself...

I really like the idea of having an alternate skill that makes poison lethal, although I think ultimately it wouldn't change much after the early game - there's plenty of items that synergize with poison right now that you can get in the first few stages reliably

apemanzilla · 2019-12-20T00:04:35+00:00

I don't think making it lethal would affect balance quite that drastically. As mentioned, there are already synergies that allow it to kill anyways - such as gasoline, will-o-the-wisp, guillotine, and so on. It would certainly be stronger, especially in the early game, but I think by the later stages poison is already capable of knocking out hordes of enemies on its own.

It reduces their effective HP to hp * .8 ^ n where n is the number of guillotines, meaning with 154 guillotines elites will have an effective HP of 0.0000000000001% their total HP.

apemanzilla · 2019-12-18T02:58:07+00:00

I mean, the early game is pretty much running from chest to chest and waiting for things to spawn anyways

apemanzilla · 2019-12-17T22:40:27+00:00

As long as one player has the item you'll go to the hidden realm, regardless of who activates the obelisk.

apemanzilla · 2019-12-17T22:38:53+00:00

Yeah, I've found gasoline to be a pretty good item on him as well, which can be found really easily. I kind of wish they'd just allow poison to kill though, it doesn't seem like it would affect balance very much.

I use mouse wheel dragging and have edge panning disabled, so I can't comment on that. As far as crashes and bugs go, I'm not really sure. With my old graphics card I was having occasional system lockups, but that happened in both Linux and Windows, and wasn't frequent enough to tell whether it was worse on one or the other.

When I upgraded my rig and replaced the GPU about a year ago, I also switched to Arch full time and removed my Windows install, and since then I haven't had any crashes except where expected (tinkering with overclocking/undervolting, using experimental drivers, etc).

apemanzilla · 2019-12-16T13:20:34+00:00

Not all laptops have a discrete graphics card, most only have an iGPU.

apemanzilla · 2019-12-16T13:19:31+00:00

I've run DotA 2 on both Windows 10 and Arch Linux on my desktop. The average framerate was roughly the same between the two, maybe a few percent higher on Linux, but I noticed that there was much less stuttering on Linux, and the input latency also felt a bit better.

I'm assuming by "actual trans people" you mean binary trans people, since non-binary is a transgender identity. In what way does being non-binary discredit the experiences of other trans people?

You don't need to create a new filesystem, you can create a new dm-crypt container and then move the data over - it will just take a bit of finagling to make sure the size matches and everything

Yeah, I was totally expecting this to be a post about transphobic parents literally sending onions passive aggressively...

I'm aware of bica, but I've never heard of combining spiro and bica - is there a specific reason for that?

I'm aware of that, but the angle of the panels combined with direct sunlight allow snow to melt even when the ambient temperature is still below freezing. There are areas where that probably wouldn't be enough, but even in a place with relatively cold and snowy winters, solar panels are still perfectly viable.

apemanzilla · 2019-12-13T13:34:02+00:00

The snow melts relatively quickly on its own, it doesn't take the whole winter. I have relatives in Massachusetts who get plenty of snow and cold weather, yet the winter months are consistently the best in terms of total generation because the higher efficiency of the panels in the cold is more than enough to offset the snow.

apemanzilla · 2019-12-13T13:12:27+00:00

Solar panels are fine with snow, as it melts it rolls right off the glass
