I am skeptical that the browser is the problem.

And you, sir/madam, are you strangling or being strangled in this scenario where you are, “so wet”?

Examiner? I 'ardly know 'er!

Now launch one (1) web browser and watch an elephant drop on your sofa.

The OS is no longer relevant to memory usage, really, not in the way it used to be. The amount of memory required for a usable desktop is peanuts compared to the amount required to run a few web-apps.

The concept of “normal price” doesn’t make sense

And was there this side-chick + exam situation in all of them?

Beats politics

Their logic, such as it is, is that since trans people don’t exist, anybody in the “wrong” bathroom is there for nefarious reasons.

It’s false to anybody with a brain, because trans people do exist. In fact, even if you think gender dysphoria and trans identity are not how they’re commonly described, harsh punishments for using the “wrong” bathroom still don’t make sense, because the logical conclusion would be that those people are misguided or deluded, not predatory.

Still, it behooves us all to understand the emotional reasoning behind gender-segregated bathrooms: in most cultures (at least Western ones, but I think it goes further) there is a deep-seated idea that certain things are wrong if done in the presence of people of the other gender. Cultures with very different attitudes to nudity, for example, still have gender-segregated baths and saunas. I don’t think there’s any logical reason for this, but people (especially conservatives) feel the need to preserve it: the idea of gender-neutral bathrooms is crazy to them.

What, then, do you do with people who say their gender is other than what you, the dominant culture, say it is? Do you let them use the bathroom/shower/sauna they say they should? But then ANYONE could say their gender is different, and you wouldn’t have gender segregation at all! Oh no!

And actually, I agree with this. I think if you’re going to let people pick which bathroom they use according to their self-identification, gender segregated bathrooms are pointless, so we should get rid of them. Of course, this is not a popular view even among moderate left-wingers in Western countries, never mind Republicans, so we have this stupid culture war.

I am not sure this is true, or at least, if it is it wasn’t when I saved my session, because Konsole and Okular don’t restore to the correct workspaces.

At the school I went to if you shat at school someone would bang on the cubicle door and laugh at you. Caused some definite problems for me

You putting your bank balance in your phone’s Bluetooth name or what?

But kwin can’t restore them to the correct workspace

I think you misread

It’s fine, they’ll just be in queue position omega

Back when I was on IRC, I wrote a bash script to upload (via scp) a file to an uploads location on my server, which it knew the public URL for. It then (using xclip) put the resulting URL into the clipboard so I could paste it into IRC. Worked well

There is a philosophical distinction between the essence of science and the human application of scientific method. It’s not that important a distinction in practice, but I don’t refrain from pedantry when replying to people who for some reason can’t bring themselves to post in a political memes community.

Thanks for the correction - misremembered that.

A slight clarification in return: the constructible numbers are a strict subset of the algebraic (i.e. non-transcendental) real numbers.

(The constructible numbers are those numbers resulting from the closure of the rational numbers under square roots.)

This means that although the proof of pi’s transcendentality proved that squaring the circle is impossible, it could have been the case that pi was neither transcendental nor constructible. A simple example of such a number is the cube root of 2.

Science itself is not political, this is not a science meme, and having looked at your post history I won’t be missing anything by not seeing you again.

Oh bugger off. Post in political memes.

Nope, the proof has been known since ancient times!
