Somebody help me out. Is afab a trans acronym or something? I haven't heard that one.

You're basically correct, but with a caveat or two. Disease tend to boil down to only a few basic etiologies: cancers = improperly dividing cells, autoimmune = body attacking itself, etc. There's a LOT of specific diseases out there, and the mind is finite. We discreetly go around the corner to check references (hopefully not Google) on our phones ALL THE TIME in the medical community, MDs to RNs. We might not know your exact symptoms off the top of our head, but even that varies from patient to patient within a single diagnosis. That's part of why a face to face consult is so important, and assuming that a doctor asking questions about your condition is ignorance is probably (usually) wrong... Also, I had a patient last week explain to me that high-voltage power lines cause cancer, and as a survivor of breast cancer, she was more knowledgeable about this than I was, so... It goes both ways sometimes.

As with cats, could be both at the same time.

He looks like he's either cozy, or he's trying to summon and focus the unadulterated life energy of every living being in the universe like Goku to destroy you.

Tell us your wisdom oh Baker of the Mountain. Do you just use the same recipe or is it modified somehow to benefit from the dwell time? Best type of cookie for this treatment? Teach me something new that's not another reason to be depressed please.

You're a nice person.

Ya, I got that much. I've seen the movie. I appreciate the thorough explanation though. I'm just saying that I think that the edit were done with/by an AI photo editor and people are losing their entire minds at the very insinuation.

So I asked OP instead of flinging vaguely articulated insults based on assumptions. He (they?) said he's not 100% sure based on the source, but "possibly AI edits" based on "the too perfect uniform texture I usually associate with AI". So....

Period costume? From the terrible NINTENDO Wars of '04?

 

I started wondering about this for no particular reason I can think of. Who's idea was it? Was it supposed to be symbolic of something? Did they just start passing out pamphlets at rallies titled: "Forget everything you THINK you know about public greetings!"?

 

Looking for game recommendations for my 4 year old who just got a Switch for Christmas. He's having a good time with Donut County, and likes running around the town in Stardew Valley, but looking for something else. Doesn't have to be super kids-y, but easy, chill, no lose condition or time limits. Thoughts?

 

This may be a bit hyper specific, but I have a 2021 Ford Mustang Mach E, which I got used a couple weeks ago. I use my Galaxy Fold 5 as the key via Bluetooth, and it worked fine until a few days ago when I installed the security update 20.0. it drove to work fine, I installed the update while at work, and then it did not work to get me home. I tried to reinitiate the key generation process in the app, but it claims it cannot connect to the car, when my wife's iPhone still can. I was just curious if anyone has any thoughts on if the recent update deprecated a feature the app uses, or if they had had a similar experience. The update seem to be pushed by Samsung, and not from within Android, so I figured I would ask here first. Thanks.

 

My wife and I make okay money in a middle class area, but, due to a combination of good luck, and contrived to circumstances, we recently got to watch a college football game in the stadium's super executive corporate sponsor level suite. It was awesome. Open bar, amazing catered food, and people networking all around me who are clearly in the c-suite of their respective companies. I had a list of crazy things I was going to say if someone asked me what I did, but it never came up.

 

It's been a long ol time since I've known any lesbians well enough to ask such things, but I followed my brain down a weird line of inquiry, and got to wondering about the current state of the art for the gay gals. I guess I had always assumed it was similar to the dynamics of a gay guy relationship, but then I realized that since men have both an input and an output, they can choose, but it's mechanically a bit different for cis women. Is there any relationship between that, and the slightly more masculine versus feminine flavors? Asking for a friend, who is me. I want to know. Thanks.

 

Sorry to be a bother, but I'm hitting a wall here, and my google-fu is not strong enough apparently. I'm trying to reinstall a Home Assistant VM on my server, (It's been a while, and I have no idea how I did it originally). Running: virt-install --name haos --description "Home Assistant OS" --os-variant=generic --ram=16384 --vcpus=4 --disk /home/chris/haos_ova-12.4.qcow2,bus=scsi --controller type=scsi,model=virtio-scsi --import --graphics none --boot uefi

Returns:

`WARNING KVM acceleration not available, using 'qemu' WARNING Using --osinfo generic, VM performance may suffer. Specify an accurate OS for optimal results.

Starting install... ERROR internal error: Could not run '/usr/bin/swtpm_setup'. exitstatus: 1; Check error log '/home/chris/.cache/libvirt/qemu/log/haos-swtpm.log' for details. Domain installation does not appear to have been successful. If it was, you can restart your domain by running: virsh --connect qemu:///session start haos otherwise, please restart your installation.`

Checking the 'haos-swtpm.log' shows repeated entries of:

I gather that it seems to be a issue with the vTPM, but I usually deal in containers, so this is all new on me.

Thanks in advance.
