Erm. What? Try learning German without speaking to Nazis…

Is the silicone used in anal toys different than the one used for vaginal toys?

I can answer this question specifically, no idea about egg vibrators in general. If it is actual silicone (and be careful, a lot of cheap Amazon sex toys are not actual silicone), then it’s non-porous and body-safe. In terms of pathogenic safety, any silicone toy can be used both vaginally and anally, and shouldn’t grow bacteria/mould/etc inside it. Toys made specifically for anal will be made of harder silicone to make sure it can penetrate, and you probably know this but should have a flared base for anal. But some toys designed for vaginas also satisfy those qualities.

Actual silicone can be safely boiled. I boil my dildos to disinfect them (after washing with soap and water first). I use gentle pH-neutral soap so as to not damage the toys.

I use Prism Launcher offline mode since I only play singleplayer.

That’s interesting… I like getting chunks of carrot and celery in my soups. I deliberately cut them large, about as large as you can get whilst fitting on a spoon, for that reason.

If you use a gtk theme they look fine. Most Linux users will have a gtk theme.

GTK? Depends on how important cross-platform support is for you. I’ve heard GTK programs don’t look great on Windows, but it does support Windows. GTK is written in C as well—Qt is in C++ so that might be where some of your problems are coming from, I’ve not tried making any kind of GUIs in C though.

It does, but people of any gender can be abusers etc. It is a real problem that lesbian survivors of abuse from a female partner find it difficult to escape their partner because their partners are e.g. allowed into women’s shelters. It’s also not hard to understand that the environment of homophobia and misogyny leads to many women and girls getting into toxic relationships with each other where abuse can develop. I say this as a lesbian who was in some unhealthy relationships in my teen years. A lot of lesbians have similar experiences. I’m not saying that lesbians are predatory on a level comparable with straight men, but I am saying that narratives around abuse and violence completely ignore the violence that LGBT people may experience in their own relationships. Judging by OP’s profile picture they are also a young lesbian.

In most cases cutting causes a physical change not a chemical change.

Oh so you’re saying the latter.

Fuh-saad is pretty in line with English pronunciation “rules” (though English doesn’t really have pronunciation rules the same way other languages do—see though, through, cough, bough, etc). Maybe a more “English” way of saying it would be fuh-sayd, but I think the c would be interpreted as a soft c even if it weren’t a loanword. Again, hard to say with English which is notoriously inconsistent though.

Lesbians exist.

New tech isn’t socially neutral. Should we be excited about the possibilities of new missiles and warplanes? If you understand how that new technology can be bad, you can understand how other new technologies can also not be “exciting”. Capitalism produces for the sake of production. We have plenty of useless shit that exists for the ouroboros of profit and marketing rather than to fulfil some natural use case. I think modern LLMs fall into the former, not to mention the energy cost of the current demand. I think LLMs can be cool as toys/for demos/as academic projects/etc but the current prevalence is purely due to marketing and AI companies trying to make something that is quite expensive, profitable.

I’ve never heard anyone of any native language pronounce it fack-aid? The English speakers I hear always say fuh-saad. Or are you saying that fack-aid is how you pronounce it and you struggle with fuh-saad?

That’s because you’re American. That’s how you say it with an American accent. Like think about how Brits say “sure” vs how Americans say “sure”. Americans pronounce the R far more.

I think I was just pronouncing everything wrong for the first several years I was speaking English because I learnt English from books and never heard most words out loud. But I don’t remember anything being physically difficult to pronounce in terms of emulating how it’s said when I first hear it pronounced “correctly”.

Having to replace perfectly functional Pixel phones because GOS stopped making updates for them. I don’t blame GOS as they’re a FOSS project and their end of support coincides with Google’s end of support, but it still feels bad replacing perfectly functional hardware. Wish release cycles were much slower so support for existing devices could be focused on, instead of having to spend time porting to every new phone dropped like every year or whatever.

Any serif font is fine by me. I’ve been going with whatever Zathura’s default epub font is.

I would not say that reading a book is the way to go about it. At least the way I learned was just through using my computer like normal, and naturally I ended up using the terminal for some things e.g. updating packages, doing simple operations like moving files around, etc. I don’t think it’s a good idea to specifically try to “learn the command line” as a directed/targeted goal, because like you said you could end up learning a bunch of stuff you never use.

I just did.

Follow artists you like who don’t use genAI? There are loads of them.

I wasn’t talking about any laws. I was talking about one specific cybersquatter.
