Yep, my point being that a trans man (AFAB) and a cis man (AMAB) both have their bed nucleus of the stria terminalis roughly the same size, twice the size of a woman's. A woman's is half the size of a man's, regardless of whether she's trans (AMAB) or cis (AFAB). So regardless of what the gender is assigned at birth, the relative size of the bed nucleus predicts the gender that the individual feels most comfortable as.

Their bed nucleus of the stria terminalis should be twice as large as a woman's, and that's what guided their gender identities. Not that I'm a biological determinist, just a strict physicalist with no belief in metaphysical choice superceding determinism, but a lot of times the brain's development has recursive feedback loops such that smaller choices early on can alter the size of brain structures along with sex hormones and the development environment in the womb or even outside of it for a while, the earlier the more significant. All I know is that the size of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis is pretty consistently twice the size in men as it is in women regardless of the gender assigned at birth.

As long as we're coming up with overly convoluted reasons that a minor plot device from a fantasy space opera makes sense in a rigorous scientific way, why not assume that they were genetically engineered specifically as a torturous punishment for the Hutt syndicate? Bioengineering is apparently canon, so there's in-universe justification.

I call it asocial media, personally.

Roger Stone's tattoo, right? Definitely one of the trashiest I've seen.

Nah, you can enroll your own keys and set it up so you can be reasonably certain that your boot image hasn't been altered, validating its integrity against the potential threat of bootkits. I do this with my Gentoo install.

Isn't post-quantum cryptography already a thing? Probably not implemented in anything meaningful yet, but still.

Is the reference frame the CMB? You'd think you could just choose the reference frame at that point and move however you want, but arguing the physics of hypothetical metaphysical beings probably doesn't make much sense.

I mean, you can still do that with https, your dns requests will likely still be in the clear unless you're using dns over tls or dns over https.
