There are ways to get free or reduced cost therapy.

If you are employed, see if your health insurance plan covers therapy. If not, see if there is an Employee Assistance Program or something similar.

If you are a student, check with your school/college/university, many offer free therapy sessions.

If you aren’t either, you can still get cheaper therapy by asking therapist offices for a potential discount, sliding scale payment plan, income based payment plan, etc. You can also try to book with a clinical intern or therapist in training.

Some universities may offer discounted therapy sessions if you see a student therapist.

Community centers or community health clinics sometimes offer free or reduced cost therapy.

If nothing else works, places of worship also often offer therapy, though make sure it is a place that is welcoming of LGBT+ people.

I like it a lot. I always feel like I need a third hand when I’m working circuit boards.

I noticed that at the very beginning of the video, the plastic got too close to the iron and melted a bit. I wonder if you could cover the tip with foil tape to act as a sort of heat shield.

I’m so glad I got out of Arizona before I discovered my trans identity. I worry for my friends who still remain there.

Not every package that comes with xfce has a name that starts with xfce4, just most of them do. You may need to identify and remove other packages too.

I think the meme is referring to the first vowel.

[–] AspieEgg@lemmy.blahaj.zone 37 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (5 children)

I think that: sudo apt purge xfce4* sudo apt autoremove

should do it.

I’ll point out that the other answers here are also correct. It depends on how you want to clean it from your system.

“apt remove” will only remove the packages, not the config files
“apt purge” will remove the packages and config files
“apt autoremove” will clean up the orphaned dependencies
“xfce4” will only remove the DE
“xfce4*” will remove the DE and most of the other packages that come with xfce

I think Lower Decks would be difficult to not get a 100%. 4 of 8 starring cast members are women.

The article linked shows voyager pretty high, but DS9 surprisingly low for how many women are part of the show.

I’d be curious to see how the newer shows stack up. I’d bet they’d do a bit better, but it’s hard to know. For example, Discovery has Burnham and Tilly, and they even share quarters so they are likely to talk a lot, but it is still a pretty male dominated cast. Lower Decks on the other hand, I’d be surprised if it didn’t get a 100% since half of the starring characters are women (Mariner, Tendi, Freeman, T’Ana).

There are three separate things going on.

  1. Gamers Nexus made a video exposing LTT for their lack of quality control in their videos regarding providing accurate information after a video where an LTT employee said that they did things better than Gamers Nexus.

  2. Gamers Nexus also brought to light a situation where Billet Labs loaned LTT their prototype liquid cooling block. LTT proceeded to publish a video where they tested it on hardware that it was explicitly not designed for and then proceeded to give it a bad review. In the video, it was clear that LTT knew it was the wrong hardware but Linus specifically said to not waste time on doing it right. After that, they failed to return the prototype and instead they sold it at auction during LTX.

  3. Ex-employee Madison made some pretty serious accusations of sexual harassment and a culture of not taking issues like that seriously. There have been a few “insider sources” that have confirmed her story, though I don’t think we know who they are yet. Nobody has mentioned who the harassment came from yet.

I had a similar thing happen, except that instead of a cop, they hit a patch of ice, slid sideways into a light pole completely fucking up the side of their expensive looking SUV, and then they drove off as if nothing happened.

As far as J. J. goes, if you’re curious, he did a video about the Canadian raising accent, where he addresses his use of the word. https://youtu.be/8YTGeIq4pSI
