What a time to be alive. Nazis wearing chainmail and bringing children to protest drag events. If I didn't follow the news, I'm not sure I would be able to tell this wasn't a LARP event.

Dear god. To be fair, at least these kinds of fascists make me laugh.

[–] Dislodge3233@feddit.de 21 points 2 years ago (5 children)

I shouldn't laugh, but wtf. This is ridiculous.

I have a really long password on Bitwarden like 30+. I use OnlyKey to store this password on a hardware device.

You mentioned phones. My problem with using another 2FA app is that it's still on my phone.

Are there any neutral sources? Or at least more complete accountings? I only find Leif's account and some transphobic accounts.

The only "facts" I could find are that Leif had an AR-15 and maced 2-4 people (depending on the account). The transphobic one says children were maced.

I'm just legitimately interested in what happened.

Yeah it seems to be a series of fallacies like,

Conservatives hate gays, so conservatives are bad. Conservatives love capitalism, so capitalism is bad. The west is mostly capitalistic, so I hate the west. The west sanction Iran and Russia, so they must be good.

I think it's better to draw the line at hating controlling abusive people, rather than geopolitical boundaries.

There's also the bizarre phenomena of "leftist" people who support Russia, Iran, etc.

I was on a date once (gay) and he would shit-talk the US, Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, etc. for being capitalistic. Then in the same breath, talk about how he wanted to go to Iran and Russia.

I honestly didn't know what to say.

Simple physics demands that this use less energy.

E = mv^2/2.

Say cars are 10x the weight and drive 2x the speed of an electric bike. That's 40x energy.

Additionally, bikes are more likely to have less erratic go/stop behavior, so even more efficient. For example, I'm much more careful to coast on a bike than a car because it's my energy.

Here. I have lots of energy since the patriarchy can't fuck me without being gay. Sadly it's empty

Yeah, I'll do it in like a week

This paper is aimed at men who are attracted to women, which covers both straight men and bisexual men’s interactions with women. It is somewhat useful for men who are attracted to men, and for women, though many of the things I say will not apply.

I'm bi leaning gay, but I came out recently and turns out I enjoy sex with men more than women. In a strange twist of irony, I find I get more women when I look for men. I don't date that much since I've got other family responsibilities, but the last two new women I slept with I "got" by talking about my interest in men.

Weird and cool I guess, but I would rather date men. I just live in a homophobic area, so life is hard.

I'm going to introduce a bill that makes it so kids float if they fall off buildings.

Let's see who's physics defying politics wins first.

 
 

I'm trying to run my work profile over VPN. The best thing I've found so far is external GL.iNet router and put my phone on airplane mode.

Are there any better solutions?

 
 

How/where can I buy groceries without plastic? Everything at local stores (like Albert Heijn) is wrapped in plastic.

 

I currently find my parties on Fetlife, but it's mostly just bi women and straight guys. Maybe like 10% of men are bi/gay. The parties are great, but leave some holes in my life unfilled ...

Any other platforms like Fetlife for finding good parties, but with more men?

 
 

I've had to get PrEP in several countries, so here is a cheatsheet. It's not so easy in every country, especially for immigrants.

What is PrEP?!?

United States

  1. Free under the Affordable Care Act (see page 3 under "Coverage of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis")
  2. Any family doctor can prescribe it.
  3. Get it at a pharmacy

Netherlands

https://www.mantotman.nl/nl/snel-regelen/prep-tegen-hiv

At the GGD,

  1. Long waiting lines
  2. Call your local GGD for appointment https://www.ggd.nl/
  3. They will ask you questions like top/bottom, condom use, group sex, etc. Answer honestly, but be as risky as possible. Mentioning things like fear of being stealthed can help.
  4. Insurance might not cover PrEP. No legal mandate AFAIK.

Alternatives are at a family doctor and https://prep-direct.nl/.

Latvia

  1. Get a referral for an "Infectologist" (infektologs) from your GP ("ģimenes ārsts")
  2. Find an infektologist on https://eveselibaspunkts.lv/en. You can also check https://vc4.lv/pakalpojumi/arstnieciba/infektologija/
  3. Ask the infektologist for PrEP to be compensated. According to the law https://likumi.lv/doc.php?id=147522, HIV infection risk (Z20.6 "Iespēja inficēties un kontakts ar humānā imūndeficīta vīrusu") should be 100% compensated. See also drug code J05AR03 in the "A saraksts" https://www.vmnvd.gov.lv/lv/kompensejamo-zalu-saraksti.
  4. After the infektologist prescribes it, your GP can renew the prescription.

Estonia

Currently figuring this out, so below might be wrong

  1. Get an appointment with an infektologist

Other countries?

Can we donate to feddit.de? Is it a registered charity?

I don't have German bank accounts. This is just the closest instance to my country.

 

I have to manage multiple bank cards, and if I lost them, I would have a major problem. I've been using Google Pay to pay via NFC.

Are there any alternatives to Google Pay? I dislike the privacy aspect of it.

 
 

I tried changing the default listing type to subscribed, but it didn't work.

How do I change it to Subscribed as the default?

 

Reading https://overengineer.dev/blog/2019/04/08/very-precarious-narrative.html explains vulnerabilities to VPNs. I was aware of several of them, but some I wasn't.

Are VPNs still useful for torrenting?
