Cypher

The vast majority of cruise ship passengers are middle class. This hatred on lemmy for anyone and everyone who has even some form of disposable income is ridiculous.

The USSR was only in the fight thanks to lend lease and even Stalin admitted as much.

From school close to when the street lights came on my parents had zero idea where I was.

I was usually within 20km of home on my bike. Usually.

Congrats you just realised the mygov ID is being slowly but surely pushed towards being mandatory for access to any online services.

I didn't say sex was a spectrum

It helps if you read and comprehend the comment chain to understand what is being discussed before you jump in with ‘I didn’t say that’ when I never claimed you did.

I don’t see why it’s so hard for you to actually read the comment chain. It is right there. You can re-read it at any time.

I think I was fairly clear, it is a binary system that has some rare exceptions.

Saying sex is a binary is saying there are only males and only females.

In healthy examples of mammals where development has occurred normally this is true.

This whole ‘its a spectrum’ argument is like saying humans aren’t bipedal, there’s a spectrum because some people are born without legs! It doesn’t make any sense.

That doesn’t mean that society should refuse to accept, include and support people born without the ability to walk.

I received a refund in 2018 though they have since tried changing their EULA and TOS to make it harder, they have no legal standing to refuse a refund to Australian customers.

I was refunded for around $750 USD IIRC and at one point was in email contact with Will Leverett prior to my refund being approved.

their existence proves that sex isn't just a binary.

This argument has always struck me as odd as in virtually every other discussion we would accept that the exception ‘proves the rule’.

Humans have two hands, except when they don’t due to something impacting fetal development.

Humans have two kidneys, except when they don’t due to an error in fetal development or as a result of disease or injury.

There's diversity to sex that requires a more complicated scheme to account for everybody.

Or just let the exceptions be exceptions with no social stigma rather than refusing to recognise that the vast majority of humans, and mammals, can be accurately identified as one of two distinct sexes.

Honestly Korean brands are just not options anymore, between the ads from LG and Samsung, and the spying by Hyundai and Kia there's simply no reason to buy their products.

There is a whole universe of resources and our needs for them will never be fully satisfied. Every step towards cleaner, more sustainable energy is a good one.

The fact I have never tasted the dreaded bowl splash dispels this myth.

The problem is that it isn’t an alternative, it is an additional and it does not benefit users in any way.
