hi :)
My daily driver is a PowerEdge T620 with 48 Ivy Bridge cores (2x E5-2969 v2) and 384 GiB of DDR3-1333. It’s a bit of a power hog yes, but it’s still cheaper than upgrading to a more modern system with at least that much DDR4/5, and the only things where performance has been an obstacle has been a few more recent games (most recently Clair Obscur, which was bottlenecked by my GPU with the CPUs at pretty low utilization).
Not sure how meaningful it is to say that Firefox “embeds a web browser”, considering that it IS a web browser :P
This didn’t age well.
I’m on ml and I can see it just fine.
I want to give you a belated “thank you” for writing this up! I had kinda been feeling like I’d reached a dead end with my whole gender exploration adventure, but you have not only inspired me to do a second (longer) trial run using EV instead of EEn (which I have just started), but I’m also gonna go to a local meetup for trans/enby/questioning people later this week. Something about your comment here really helped me get out of the rut I was in. Thanks for all your support!!! ❤️
Re-reading your original question, it should have been pretty obvious in retrospect that I am not really in the target audience. welp, my bad :P
I didn’t get any blood work done unfortunately, since my doctor’s office refuses to do it without a specific request from my GP (and the whole reason I wanted to do a trial run DIY was because I can’t realistically do this kind of stuff the legit way at the moment), so I just went with a dose a bit higher than the dosages I’d seen recommended online for “most” people and figured it was unlikely that that wouldn’t be enough. Since I saw nipple changes almost immediately I assumed that it was doing the trick, but the expected other effects just never came and I stopped when my nipples had become large enough that I was about to start needing a bra to stop them visibly poking through my shirt.
I didn’t really consider that the longer half-life was super relevant to the “startup delay”, most resources I found online seemed to show it nearly reaching the steady state level after only one or two doses. If that was actually the problem that’s a pretty big derp on my part, but I’m already planning to give it another shot once I’m not living at home.
I did estrogen monotherapy for about 2 months earlier this year. Quite frankly, the only changes I noticed was an immediate and significant increase in nipple sensitivity+size, and a reduction of nighttime erections. Other than that I didn’t notice any of the early changes which I had been lead to expect within the first few weeks: no emotional differences, no reduction in skin oiliness, no changes in body temperature, etc.
For what it’s worth, I was taking 1.4ml/week of 40% estradiol enanthate without any antiandrogens, am in my early 20s and have a very low body mass.
It’s a whole bunch of splinter groups who all disagree with the modern “woke” church to varying degrees. For example, my parents follow of the FSSP, which refuses to acknowledge anything post-Vatican II and still insists on performing mass in Latin, plus all the regular “traditional” religious crap. If you listen to my dad discussing politics it’s abundantly clear that he actively supports all the stereotypically Evangelical talking points, and isn’t even particularly Catholic since he hates the Pope for being so “woke”.
“I believe in one holy and apostolic church” my ass, you believe in your own church old man
I wish I’d known this was a thing before I spent 15 minutes searching the manpages and manually upgrading my sources…
I will never touch flatpak for this reason, I’d rather deal with compiling software myself and faffing around with dependency issues than have 8 copies of every system library sitting around.

There are a number of enterprise storage systems optimized specifically for SMR drives. This is targeting actual data centers, not us humble homelabbers masquerading as enterprises.
KDE user here, I still use X11 to play old Minecraft versions. LWJGL2 uses xrandr to read (and sometimes modify? wtf) display configurations on Linux, and the last few times I’ve tried it on Wayland it kept screwing the whole desktop up.
Nouveau is dead, it’s been replaced with Zink on NVK.

There is nothing nuclear about microwaves.
A huge chunk of Linux development is subsidized by the hundreds of corporations which depend on it and pay developers to maintain things. There is no corporate interest in developing and/or maintaining an alternative browser engine when chromium already exists and dominates the market.
If you have infinite monkeys on IDEs, some subset of 1000 of them will eventually make Firefox.
Fair enough, it seems I overlooked the parenthesis in your original comment.
