JasonDJ,

Foster kid is a different situation but in general seriously don’t bring someone else’s kid to their first haircut. Thats an important moment for parents. It’s a major milestone, especially with girls. That original in-utero hair behaves different.

Three years isn’t that weird. I know a girl who was 4 for her first. She had the most gorgeous, long curls. It was really hard for her mom to get rid of those.

Know a couple boys who were each three too. They look like totally different kids once they lost all their baby curls.

JasonDJ,

Same. I remember getting interested in Linux in like 1997 or so, and it seemed like RedHat was preferred for newbies.

Of course, what were the alternatives then? It was basically Slackware (or Suse), Debian, and RedHat (or Caldera). There was no RHEL or Canonical or SElinux back then. It was a different time.

Hell one of the language packs for installing RedHat was “Redneck”. It was a gimmick to demonstrate localization options.

JasonDJ,

I’m sure a person can have a bad opinion. I’m simply amazed so many people have such a shit opinion.

We’re not talking about pineapple on pizzas. We’re talking about basic human decency.

Both of you are coming vague. His “leaning more hetero at the time” and your emphasis on ACTUALLY, you sound like you’re doubting that a person can like penises and vaginas, or just straight up not care.

He’s probably bi or pan. Probably always had been. He probably didn’t realize it in school, or wouldn’t admit it to himself due to societal pressure. He seems to be more comfortable about it now. It really doesn’t need much more detail.

JasonDJ,

I feel like lemmy is sticking more to the old reddiquette upvote/downvote culture of “upvote if it contributes to the conversation, downvote if not”, and not the modern culture of “upvote is if lols”.

….windows 10 came out in 2015. I wouldn’t say it just came out, 8 and a half years ago. Thats a pretty good run for a retail OS. There was only 5 between the release of 3.0 and 95.

My big gripe with 11 was that it seemed like MS was going to go away from major releases and go to something somewhat closer to a rolling release model. My big gripe with 10 was all the telemetry.

It’s actually pretty telling that from “insert installation media” to “working web browser”, just about any Linux distro is a faster, easier, and less demanding installation experience than 10 or 11.

Friendly reminder that sexual side effects of SSRIs are incredibly common, some medications effect more than one in four, but it is something that’s typically wildly underreported unless the practitioner brings it up, specifically, first. Not just “any side effects”.

There are multiple treatment options for people who encounter those side effects. They can range from poor libido/drive, to inability to obtain an erection or adequate vaginal moisture, to delayed or absent orgasm. All are common and all are frustrating. All can occur alone or with one or more partners.

If it’s impacting treatment or quality of life or your ability to stay compliant with meds, it’s absolutely worth discussing with your provider. There are other medications or alternative schedules to taking SSRIs. There are other meds that can be prescribed alongside SSRIs to accommodate for the side effects.

SSRIs were super lucky in that they helped alleviate depression caused by my anxiety which then helped me find other roots of the anxiety

You hit the nail on the head.

SSRIs are terrific at clearing some of the noise and making you more receptive to other therapy (namely talk therapy) and striking at the root of what’s causing the issue. I wouldn’t have even thought about talking to a therapist a year ago and it’s been revolutionary understanding my behaviors (especially those that I learned in childhood) and how I’m inadvertently passing them down to my kids.

Consequentially I’ve also been more aware of my wife’s behaviors and how she’s passing them down to the kids and she’s not quite as receptive to the criticism as I’ve been.

It really is eye opening to have a good long conversation about what’s troubling you with someone who understands the intricacies of how the mind works and how it pieces things together.
