I don’t think I’ve ever had that impression more strongly yeah. I’ll report back if I find something!

Sleepwear is definitely a hack, I used that a lot early in my transition too as a low stakes method of affirmation.

With respect to dysphoria I’ve frankly reached a point where it’s not so prevalent in my day to day life, ca 5 years into my social transition. It crops up of course but it’s much less pronounced, to the point where I was technically misgendered by a colleague (who did the right thing and immediately and discretely corrected himself), and that didn’t even feel bad at all.

This also applies to euphoria though.

people are always calling for the ‘year of the linux desktop’ and then turn around and do backlash to try to keep things obfuscated and unfriendly to the average human

To be fair to both of these groups in my impression those are usually separate people. People definitely have different visions for what good design is here.

The thing that strikes me as bad is when Unix conservatives (for lack of a better term) actively resists features to support use in modern, bit-mapped graphics as opposed to 70’s teletype terminals etc. But that’s just a terrible position, not necessarily hypocrisy, assuming they don’t care about Linux as the kernel in a desktop operating system for people whose hobby is not configuring their computer.

Now that is news, and a much, much worse thing when it’s an expressed policy than when it’s “please don’t submit a tiny change to only documentation as a PR that’s just annoying”.

It must be an allusion to Stalingrad and presumably the battle there where the red army beat the crap out of the nazis, so you’re not wrong.

You’re joking but this is literally a plan I have

Look, it’s my favourite energy drink Peal Doul!

Joking aside that image is disgusting? Why is it so disgusting?

You joke but I realised I feel exactly the same about this as I do about the choice of C++, which is: deep sigh ok sure

This framing made me read the comment in the link as a transphobic joke (“ha ha I won’t accept your change of gender ie will misgender you”) which would have been a pretty smoking gun if left there, and in case anyone else makes the same incorrect interpretation I’d like to warn them that they’re talking about grammatical gender, in the PR.

I think it’s a stretch to call this transphobia; if anything it’s good ol’fashioned sexism, but a pretty tame one.

Yep, and also she’s there between 08:30-16:10 every day so quite a lot more than 15 h/week.

Ah, sorry, didn’t see the second bullet point. Yep, she’s one and nine months.

I checked now and we pay 1688 SEK / month, which I think is the maximum.

To add to what @victorz@lemmy.world was saying above, you usually also have the right to work fewer hours if you have as small child (unpaid), but I’m not sure about the caveats. I work 75% through that mechanism. In my case it’s not really a choice; if I’d work 100% like my wife too many chores wouldn’t get done. I also wouldn’t be able to do that on the amount of sleep and rest I’m getting (a few hours too few and almost none).

I should also add that you are explicitly only given subsidised childcare when doing paid wage work. You’re not allowed to for example pop in and do some shopping on the way to pick-up, which I presume most people do anyway from time to time because who is going to check.

This system is nice in the traditionally social democrat smoke stack sense of allowing you and everyone else the freedom to do paid wage work at the factory and very little else. With a more or less private system you’re paying for the service of “please take care of my children”, which means that the marginal cost of “please take care of my child for an extra hour while I talk to my wife/go shopping/clean at home” is huge by comparison, but what you get for that is a greater degree of equality and availability.

I write the last part mainly to work against the stereotype of Sweden as a socialist utopia; sure this is a socialist policy, but it’s a pretty boring one that’s very 1950s.

For smaller children there is heavily subsidised preschool (max monthly fee 1600 SEK or so where I live) that you have a right to if you are working (i.e. not on vacation), I think there is “fritids” for older children? It’s so far away for me that I haven’t looked into it, but AFAICT if your kids are not old enough to take care of themselves at home they are usually entitled to some sort of care.

I keep forgetting that childcare is generally unavailable, unaffordable, or both since where I’m from I’ve never heard of anyone unable to afford childcare.

Apparently the instruction set is off-brand MIPS64?!

I’m not an American but my impression is the Supreme Court is mainly designed as a last bulwark to ensure the US never under any circumstances ever does anything remotely good and this isn’t exactly improving that impression.

Am I doing something wrong, it scrolls fine for me?

It’s even funnier if you know I’m a trans woman rather early in my transition and that I do, in fact, just barely have boobs

I’m a bit worried about their choice of name

Our 21-months old torpedo jumped my wife, who was quietly drinking tea in our sofa. Naturally, my wife did the only safe thing; a controlled spill of most of her tea on the side of the sofa that didn’t have the violence toddler attacking. Seeing this, said toddler commented “mommy spilled” and kept laughing like a maniac.

She’s also very fond of pulling out the top of whomever is holding her, shouting BOOOOB.

Today she also saw the sun in the morning after yesterday’s thunderstorm (it’s always bright outside here now as far as she knows since the sun sets long after her bedtime and rises long before she wakes up) and yelled “look! The lamp is on!”.

Sweden’s mostly on Meta Messenger. WhatsApp is the foreign exchange student protocol.
