ShaunaTheDead, to memes in Japan is on its own wavelength.

It makes sense to either go general to specific or specific to general. MM-DD-YYYY is neither.

Yeah, either put quotes around it '/like this/you can incorporate/spaces/into your paths' or /just\ escape/your\ spaces/like\ this

ShaunaTheDead, to newcommunities in Feminine Boys - A text based SFW community for discussion on the Femboy experience
@ShaunaTheDead@kbin.social avatar

I personally love that these boys can still fully identify as men and use he/him pronouns while still exploring their personal styles and fashion choices. Men deserve the freedom to explore and be creative with their appearance. Being pretty shouldn't be exclusive to women!

ShaunaTheDead, to cyanideandhappiness in 14 October 2023
@ShaunaTheDead@kbin.social avatar

It's a combination of all of the above, I'm sure. Probably some sexism, but it could also be that now that I'm happier I project a friendlier attitude making me more approachable. I guess I'll never know!

I've definitely noticed that women are muuuuuuch friendlier toward me since transitioning which is really nice. Other women meet me eyes instead of averting it and usually flash a genuine smile (not a sheepish one like before), and will usually say something even if just a quick "hi!".

On the other hand, men are much more standoffish and weird around me, which I'm totally fine with lol

Egg - a transgender person that has yet to come out of their "shell".

When a person first makes the realization that they might be transgender, it's referred to as "cracking your egg" in the trans community.

Also, in popular culture it's commonplace to say that a person who is in denial is "putting up walls", so an egg is like a type of wall that completely surrounds you. Cracking your egg involves tearing down those walls.

ShaunaTheDead, to lemmy_support in The user numbers in Lemmy communities don't add up
@ShaunaTheDead@kbin.social avatar

It's definitely from other instances voting on it. For example. I'm on the @kbin.social instance but I'm commenting on your post from @jeemy.jeena.net

Also, this doesn't really have to do with your point but it's interesting none-the-less, it's really hard to keep view count numbers accurate when you've got multiple servers involved. The view count is accurate and every view is being counted, but any time you look at it, it's not exactly correct. If you think about how each server might get a view count update from the server at different times, and then add the views that only it sees to the view count, and then when it goes to add it's view counts to the central count and get a new updated number there may have been dozens of other server that have updated the view count at various times between then and now.

It all gets very complicated but I think it's kind of neat that a view count number can be accurately kept track of and yet every time you look at it, it's not exactly correct.

ShaunaTheDead, to movies in Henry Cavill's Highlander reboot is moving forward with John Wick director at the helm
@ShaunaTheDead@kbin.social avatar

YESSSSS! I've been saying for years that it's time for a Highlander reboot. The original series is hard to watch now because TV writing, special effects, and stunt choreography is so much better now! A Highlander series would be amaaaaazing today! SO PUMPED!

Also, Henry Cavill is SUCH A GOOD CHOICE! He's a huge nerd that takes his roles very seriously and loves to keep the show lore accurate and deep!

ShaunaTheDead, to memes in A meme for math people
@ShaunaTheDead@kbin.social avatar

I see other people have posted good explanations, but I think the simplest explanation has to do with how you break down numbers. Lets take a number, say, 124. We can rewrite it as 100 + 20 + 4 and we can rewrite that as 1 * 10^2 + 2 * 10^1 + 4 * 10^0 and I think you can see why anything raised to the 0th power has to equal 1. Numbers and math wouldn't work if it didn't.

Garak is a Bashir-sexual and Keiko is not Bashir enough for him.

ShaunaTheDead, to historyporn in Cavalry of Nazi Germany training to fire from horseback, 1935?
@ShaunaTheDead@kbin.social avatar

Oh god... Imagine the horse bolting after hearing the gunshot and you're falling from your own height plus the height of the horse. I bet a lot of necks were broken from this experiment before they cancelled it.

ShaunaTheDead, to piracy in Tutorial for docker selfhost of sonarr and *Arr family
@ShaunaTheDead@kbin.social avatar

Ezarr is a pretty great little project for getting started. Just clone the repo and follow the README and it should just be plug and play.

ShaunaTheDead, (edited ) to linux in What's the best way to have a .bashrc that I can use throughout systems?
@ShaunaTheDead@kbin.social avatar

You need to learn bash scripting. Also, there are a few default files that the .bashrc uses which can be helpful to compartmentalize the custom things you do to it so that it's easier to undo if you screw something up. To do that, just add this to the bottom of your .bashrc

if [ -f ~/.bash_custom ]; then
    . ~/.bash_custom
fi

What that will do is check if the .bash_custom file exists and then run the .bash_custom file in your home directory and apply anything in there. Also, you can call the file whatever you like, but bash does have some defaults that it will check for and run them without editing the .bashrc at all. It's kind of hard to find a list of the the files that it automatically checks for, but I know that .bash_aliases is one of them, and I think it checks .bash_commands as well, but I'm not entirely sure. Either way, you can force it to check your custom one by using the code above.

Then you can create the file and add any custom things in there that you like. For example, I like to frequently update through the terminal but running sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt autoremove && flatpak upgrade was a bit tedious and I wanted a bit less feedback so I made a custom alias for my personal use.

alias update='echo "Updating packages..."; sudo apt update -y &> /dev/null; echo "Packages updated."; echo "Upgrading packages..."; sudo apt upgrade -y &> /dev/null; echo "Packages upgraded."; echo "Cleaning up packges..."; sudo apt autoremove -y &> /dev/null; echo "Packages cleaned up."; echo "Updating flatpaks..."; flatpak update -y &> /dev/null; echo "Flatpaks updated."'

Which hides most of the text from updating and just gives me feedback on what it's currently doing if I don't really care to know all of the details. So now I just run update in the terminal and plug in my password and it updates and upgrades everything in a human readable way.

There's a lot that can be done with bash scripting, like editing files, iterating over files and directories, setting environment variables. It's basically a full programming language so the limits are mostly your imagination.

ShaunaTheDead, to archaeology in Byzantine gold coin with 'face of Jesus' unearthed by metal detectorist in Norway
@ShaunaTheDead@kbin.social avatar

lol but it's definitely a typo. If you click on the link the actual article says "700 year old".

Thanks! :)

You can just choose not to use it. They still release everything through their regular repositories for now.
