carrying a bulky Z fold phone in my pocket only to be able to have a tablet once in a while and watch a movie is not interesting enough.

It suits my needs perfectly though! You can take my folding phone out of my cold dead hands

Until some folks can't afford to cleanse their genes and are denied the right to have children for "safety reasons" and suddenly, fertility and genetics are under state control.

It's not hard.

If you meet a trans woman, treat her as you would any other woman and don't ask invasive personal questions.

If you don't know someone's pronouns, then don't assume you do, and use gender neutral terms until either they or one of their friends/colleagues communicates their pronouns.

The whole "walking on eggshells" thing is because there are transphobes out there who deliberately paint us that way. They push and push until they get a reaction, and then use that reaction to push some more. If you're not doing that, it'll be ok, even if you fuck up

Though I'm currently testing out Quiblr, to see how its custom feed works for me.

I was responding to someone who saw no need for Wayland to exist, not advocating for everyone to use it

You should have Undetermined selected and any languages you speak. Or you can just select them all

Your posts are there and visible

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 1 week ago (4 children)

My guess would be your language settings aren't setup correctly. You need to have any languages you speak selected and "Undetermined"

You won't see any posts tagged with languages you haven't enabled, and if you don't enable "Undetermined" you won't see posts in which people haven't set a language tag

but it works

For some definitions of "works"

Our biggest cities normally have bus and train. About half of them have some sort of light rail/tram equivalent too. The coverage isn't completely comprehensive, so it's possible to find suburbs that don't have great coverage, but by and large, it's pretty good. Footpaths and bicycle paths are common too. The cycling infrastructure is often gappy, so you on commutes etc, you can find yourself navigating spaces without dedicated cycling infrastructure, but generally, you can get a good portion of a cycle commute on dedicated bike spaces. The only roads without a pedestrian corridor of some sort are generally major highways

In our smaller and medium cities, the trains are normally inter city, not local, so they're not so much use as public transport, but there are generally buses, though with less coverage. Good pedestrian infrastructure even in smaller cities though. It's harder to survive in smaller cities without a car, but possible.

Once you get out of smaller cities and in to towns and villages though, it gets harder again.

Australian manages pretty good urban public transport, with a much lower density than the US

(Our rural public transport effectively doesn't exist though)

It's not a matter of "fixing" so much as things moving around. After bottom surgery, the vaginal canal sits between the prostate and the anal canal, so sensation to the prostate is reduced with anal sex. However, the prostate ends up sitting approximately where the "g spot" is in AFAB folk, and so is more easily accessed via the vaginal canal

Kaity has been working away for hours, and had to recompile ImageMagick from scratch to get things work, but now, they're working!

As a bonus, you should be able to upload a wider variety of image formats now.

And as an extra bonus, here is a photo of a random Australian Water Dragon we encountered last weekend!
