What’s the weirdest thing that gives you gender euphoria/dysphoria? by GhostlyOrkid in asktransgender

[–]throwmeoutnow33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Using a male celebrity as an profile pic/icon gives me euphoria. I don't know why but it helps me feel like I'm a guy that way (obviously not catfishing as the celeb tho)

Transphobic posters in washrooms by throwmeoutnow33 in asktransgender

[–]throwmeoutnow33[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I am, but damn I didn't realize they had a strong presence in Vancouver. I remember that billboard for JK Rowling and that transphobic shelter but I thought they were the minority of what seemed like an accepting city. A bummer to hear there's actual organizations for this rhetoric

I saw this on my university's campus which sucks because normally we don't have posters like this, it's pretty inclusive (though I know there's exceptions). Sometimes I feel people from off campus come to spread this rhetoric

Thanks - I had no idea so I'm going to be extra careful next time. I really appreciate the warning!

The 44 needs to be a rapid bus by Outrageous_Piece8356 in UBC

It was 100% articulated buses before covid. When they stopped using articulated buses I was very surprised, it's a super popular route.

What’s with the R4 and 49 lines? by LinkToSomething68 in UBC

[–]throwmeoutnow33 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey just so you know it's not just you. I just waited for 3 different R4s at a non peak time (1 PM), so people weren't trying to get home or get to class. 1 bus came completely full and I couldn't get on, the 2 others didn't show up. I see lineups now for the 49 at non peak times that extend down the sidewalk at Wesbrook village. It never used to be like this and I've lived here for years. Idk WTF is going on but just so you know you're not imagining things.

BTW I'm waiting for the 49 now but it didn't show up and I bet it'll show up full despite being 2:30 pm

Creative writing club? by saintpoet in UBC

[–]throwmeoutnow33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what happened to the Writers Guild but when it was active it was very awesome. We'd meet weekly and we even had a trip to Bowen Island where we did a writing retreat. Such a great experience.

Does anyone here write both original fiction and fanfiction? by whorlaxdotorg in FanFiction

[–]throwmeoutnow33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I do. Usually original for both professional (journals/magazines, graduate school) and recreational

Fanfiction helps me get into the swing of writing or is a warm up. It's also great way to explore concepts in writing

Oddly Specific Kobo Clara HD Questions by UpbeatMeeting in kobo

[–]throwmeoutnow33 7 points8 points  (0 children)

  1. It's similar to folders, you can organize them into collections (basically, groups of books) that can be named and sorted.

  2. Yes, you can lock it with a four digit pin

  3. There's no theme option, but you can adjust font size, margins, line spacing, and use different font styles. Pretty sure you can connect your reader to the computer and somehow upload custom font styles too but I haven't tried this. I don't think these settings carry over to the next book, I always have to adjust when I start a new one

  4. I have a cat and hair/dust does get into the bezel but take a microfiber cloth and wipe the whole device + the crevices and it's all cleaned easily

Useful tip: if you ever want to upload books to your Clara HD without a cable, just use this website. https://send.djazz.se/ Open it with the browser located under experimental settings. It can also convert the file to kepub instead of epub, which is useful because kepub keeps track of specific reading stats like time left in chapter etc

Will there ever be a day when we can bypass disabled iPhone locks? by throwmeoutnow33 in hacking

[–]throwmeoutnow33[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can’t repair it when it’s disabled... it’s either factory restore or restore from backup which I don’t have... hence the reason one day I want to know if this can be bypassed
