God I love the "Bypass Paywalls Clean" extension. NYTimes always thinks I'm a bot.

Well what happened is it tried to update, got stuck, and now won't start. tried starting it over and over and over again while hitting F1 and F2 and it just spins it's fans. Though it randomly will start-up into a weird BIOS safe mode and give me a couple options, but I've yet to find the magic option that let's me boot it up using the previous version of windows just so I can turn it into a Linux machine. It's gotten to the point that I'm willing to pay someone to take it and convert it into Linux Fedora or Debian for me (and then pay for a quick tutorial in how tf Linux works 😭 )

EDIT is this actually a service? If this exists I'll fucking do it, I swear

I mean, yes, we need to study women's health more. It's a big glaring hole in a ton of medical research. I'm just trying to stay with the vibe of the thread. I think that just like with cutting edge cancer research being done that focuses on tailoring the specific drug/method of action to that persons specific cancer, so too should most of our medical treatments be tailored not just to what's between your legs, but to you, specifically. More research into everyone, but especially the largely ignored demographic of women, is needed to accomplish this. So... you're right, but I think I'm right too.

Yo ARCO was fantastic. I've been recommending it to everyone since I saw it.

but what they really need to know is the average hormonal balance for that specific person, before they started going out of whack.

This also I think could be fixed by taking a more human-centric holistic approach. Don't need to know you're a woman, just that you're experiencing drastic hormone changes. BAM, we gotta help regulate those hormones. Men love finding out they're low on testosterone, so they can start taking a bunch. Women should be able to get their hormones just as easily.

Trans people should go to the doctor and be like, I appear to be missing a bunch of estrogen and progesterone! and the doctor should be like "no shit, that sucks, here's a prescription for them."

So if we extrapolate here, that means everybody should have a gun! Then, when this happens every day, maybe 1 out of 50 or so will have a chance of the shooter being stopped by a second shooter! Then everyone will be safe!

perhaps instead you should ask why republicans block every attempt at federal gun regulation? Especially after SandyHook... you'd have to be a heartless monster not to support gun control after that. Which, Yeah, I'm pretty comfortable calling all elected republicans heartless monsters.

He's a russian troll, and regular contributor to the cesspool that is the latestagecapitalism instance. They're all just trying to what-aboutism democrats out of voting. That's their only goal. That's all they do.

u/Godlesscommie, u/saltyamerican, and u/tropicaldingdong. They're all just the same bullshit.

need to know weight for dosing, not genitals

 

Lemmy has it's share of trolls, but we also have our share of russian propaganda trying to influence our election. This specific moderator of a very large Lemmy community (LateStageCapitalism) has been posting "democrats are actually the fascists!" memes, while banning/censoring everyone who speaks out in favor of the very people attempting to thwart the literal fascist regime in power right now.
