Exactly my thoughts as well. At 1000 nits peak the OLED screens I have are already painfully bright under "ideal" viewing conditions (i.e., dim lighting), and easily visible in poor conditions (sunny day, curtains/blinds open). What on earth are they building them brighter for? Outdoor daytime viewing?

If they are they haven't pushed it to general release yet. Unless someone can point out where in the settings app I can adjust my audio device speaker configuration.

I identify as a cis male but essentially feel the same way. The social trappings of my gender are just that. It has about as much to do with my actual identity as my hair colour does. "Factory default" because I don't care enough to bother.

A feminine body, I am happy with, but not female.

...they literally said "feminine" and "masculine", not "male" or "female". Specifically using language you say you're okay with, but still prompting this response. What exactly is your problem with what they said?

There are harmful chemicals in some vegetables. Solanine in potatoes, for example. Not enough to be dangerous though unless you ingest a truly remarkable volume of potato skin. The dose makes the poison, as they say.

It no longer working is basically the entire reason I'm here now. I paid $2 for "rif golden platinum" while sitting in an A&W back in 2013 and absolutely got my money's worth from that purchase. The mobile Reddit experience is such utter misery in comparison it baffles me that anyone uses it at all.

Roll20 actually has a list of public games on their platform looking for players. You could check out there.

In my specific case this is for a group that plays online. We use a virtual tabletop called FoundryVTT.

This is the best use I've found for it as well. Especially if I want to quickly create a unique token for an NPC.

Generally speaking I'll commission actual artists for pictures of PCs, but for a named NPC sorcerer who's just going to be in a handful of scenes? AI has been great.

Not necessarily. Non-repeating doesn't mean the are no repeated sections. For example, in the first hundred million digits "1412" is found three times.

I don't understand your question, both of those are correct.

how do we balance that hate speech should have the same footing as voicing concerns around oppression?

Nowhere in the 1st amendment does it require that all speech have the same footing. It just means that it cannot be illegal at the federal level to say what you want. It carries no stipulations that platforms need to tolerate it being present, or that anyone has to listen to it, or that you can't kick someone out of your home or business for it.
