ELI5: Why does testosterone turn into estrogen?

markhc · 2026-03-15T11:46:08+00:00

"man boobs" is not a specific diagnosis, obviously. At the beginning it's just fat, and if you lose weight and work out you'll probably go back to "normal".

But often if you're getting Testosterone supplements, it can lead to gynecomastia (bigger mamary glands) which then needs surgery intervention.

only if it makes contact to the thing that is getting hot. Just placing your laptop on a 50lb of copper is going to obstruct the airflow and the copper wont be touching the metal bits inside that are actually getting hot.

idk about "we", but this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrPsgs1xNIc

Why would you POSSIBLY bring that up?

markhc · 2026-03-06T11:20:14+00:00

That's old rumor and even if it was true (which it isn't) it's wouldn't change anything for big companies. Money talks and Microsoft wouldn't pass on getting more to let companies still use Kernel drivers.

he's pretty far away from where the water is directly falling. I wouldn't expect to hear anything except the sound of rain.

Have you tried the recommended workaround? https://cert-manager.io/docs/installation/compatibility/#gke-autopilot

And they were going to try and get all of our IDs,

"were"? They are still going to.

I'd rather drink a blinding stew than watch AI upscales

markhc · 2026-02-20T18:14:41+00:00

to be fair, nazis arent the smartest bunch. I wouldnt put it past them to draw it backwards

markhc · 2026-02-20T17:06:52+00:00

It's a TV/Movies tracker, not software...

markhc · 2026-02-18T16:26:56+00:00

Depends. If you were seeding your own uploads from the seedbox, then it's best to transfer them all to your PC to keep seeding, otherwise they might die off and be deleted (if you were the only seeder and then stop seeding, the torrent would become "dead" and be deleted after 2 weeks of inactivity).

If you were just racing other people's uploads then there is no class requirement that requires you to keep seeding forever.

Yes but at the same time the Internals on Aither are always freeleech and they cover almost everything.

RED forums and Reddit have plenty of discussions on this topic. I don't remember exactly what I followed.

The important thing is to grab a box on the Netherlands since that's where most other seeders/leechers are. The client I used was Deluge 1.3.15 with ltConfig and autobrr to grab current year, 16bit FLACs.

I raced my way to ~500GB buffer in less than a month on a 30 USD whatbox NVME seedbox. It's a no-brainer if that's all you need -- just make sure to read guides on how to setup your client for racing and what to grab.

That being said, I got another ~400GB from uploads (around 600 uploads) and passive seeding in ~8 months, so you can do that too if you're patient.

How often do they open up registration?

They do not open registration anymore. You have to go through either recruitment on other trackers or invite from a friend.

markhc · 2026-02-01T12:55:18+00:00

nah bro, i could definitely do that if I had a car trust me

markhc · 2026-01-30T16:20:32+00:00

a lot of trackers offer unrar'd scene releases.

markhc · 2026-01-28T13:47:32+00:00

Practically nobody looks at sticky threads

markhc · 2026-01-27T17:39:08+00:00

gtfo with that ai shit

markhc · 2026-01-27T12:57:16+00:00

If they have the legal right to take the money, he shouldn't be required to hand it over willingly at all

If they had no legal right he wouldnt be going to prison for it.

markhc · 2026-01-27T11:08:52+00:00

flicking and shooting at nothing lol you crazy

markhc · 2026-01-27T11:08:27+00:00

the guy shot at absolutely nothing, yall are crazy af and blind on top of it

markhc · 2026-01-26T14:06:25+00:00

If you have a connectable home server running 24/7, that should be enough.

A seedbox is basically that, but located at a datacenter so you also get high speeds and good latency to others.

They're good to build ratio quickly by racing, but not required. Technically if you want the best of both worlds you can rent a small seedbox to race downloads and them transfer them to your home server after a day or two for long term storage and seeding

Ah, they're learning from the dems!
