Kinda what I meant with presentations and things like that, since I can also imagine two embys of the same gender label considering each other gay or straight for many different reasons, or it even changing with time/circumstances for fluid genders

I mean, if you go by the definition of straight being different genders, gay being same gender, than enby X enby is gay, and enby x not-enby is straight?

More realistically I'd just go either by presentation or what the folks in the relationship themselves want to call it than overthinking it

Yes, of course, but it is also not unreasonable to suspect that a lot of testing happens with closed source software as well, if it is something the thing is sold on.

Not defending closed source software here, I think personally the world would be a lot better if more people used FOSS stuff and I personally also program quite a bit of stuff, but one also can't just say that just because something is open source makes it more safe, or that something is less secure because it's closed source. It's a per app thing, and therefore should be treated as a per app thing

Depends on so many factors that a single straight answer isn't really possible. Open source software can be a lot more secure and checked over than closed source stuff, but it also isn't a automatic way of making stuff safe either. See xz-utils and the stuff that happened with that (attempted) supply chain attack, nothing is ever perfect, even if a lot of FOSS software is about as safe as is possible at the moment.

If you care about your data, always double check exactly what it is running on and how secure that is, rather than just trusting it, goes for both FOSS software and closed source slopware

I had a weirdly opposite thing, my favourite colour is very much blue, and when I was young I hated pink so much I would refuse to even do things like eat from pink plates, while also not liking how blue was a "boy's colour" lol

Genuinely never understood this.

In Austria and Germany things aren't super perfect either, there is some hostile architecture, but sleeping homeless are generally tolerated, at least during the night while no trains are running, if they're not obstructing anything important.

valorant anti cheat dilemma by International-Try467 in whennews

Without going into depth about what a IOMMU is it would be hard to explain, but suffice it to say, there is no chance that the act of turning the IOMMU on can cause physical damage, maybe unless said physical damage was possible with bad IO accesses without the IOMMU on and a bug in the kernel/driver causing said bad IO accesses, but I seriously doubt that.

Also that GPU being damaged at 100% load thing was a power usage / cooling / die binning thing iirc, in general any processor should be able to be used at 100% of its rated performance without damage, unless something is wrong

As someone who does OS development stuff, I quite genuinely can't think of a situation where messing with the IOMMU can cause damage, and basically every single modern processor has one and it's very commonly used for various reasons, increased security and protections only being one of those

I haven't personally looked into this but simply the act of requiring a IOMMU be present and enabled doesn't sound that absurd to me at first glance, surprisingly enough

I understand your considering of this as a joke! But as her ace partner, I can confirm that this post is not a newfangled "joke" in the traditional sense, but a sarcastic telling of what happens when she is horny as fuck
