I think there’s probably no such thing as womens problems or mens problems. Only human problems that bounce around and affect everyone.
To your point, yes absolutely these issues affect us all, because we’re all connected as humans. But you might want to reconsider how you phrase that. This has big “I don’t see color” energy.
Both men and women absolutely have unique and specific issues that need recognition if we are to meaningfully address them.
I understand what you are saying, but you don’t need a lived female experience to be a feminist.
I will declare you one. You are a feminist. Be proud.
Please reconsider the brother in christ phrase.
It’s problematic, because even if you don’t mean anything by it, it still normalizes and perpetuates christianity at a time when christian nationalism and Dominionism are on the rise and have taken over the US government. It also assumes the person you are talking to is also christian. Third, it reinforces patriarchy by assuming the person you are talking to is male.
I have no idea how it caught on and become popular, but I’m hoping that with a little self-reflection, we can all move away from it.
As others have said, at this point you don’t have a whole lot of choice; you pretty much have to use what the school provides you.
BUT, what you can do is try to rally other students to your cause. You pay the university, which means that students in numbers have influence over how the the university operates. I think your best chance to enact change is to create a petition to get the university to change to a more privacy-friendly alternative, and put together a proposal on how google and microsoft are harmful, and why your proposed alternative is better.

I have a Kinekt dual-spring suspension seatpost that I have been riding on for years. For the most part, I really like it and it works well to smooth out bumps in my ride. It has a decent amount of travel for shock absorption.
However, it requires having the correct springs installed for the rider’s weight. If the springs are too soft, you’ll bottom out or bounce up and down as you pedal. Springs that are too stiff will nullify any benefit of having a suspension.
It takes time to dial it in, but for anyone who suffers from back or pelvic pain, I recommend a good suspension seatpost.
I recently did a rpi media player project and tried volumio, picoreplayer, moode, and others. I ultimately settled on installing android from konstakang.com. It was so much easier to set up imo for my use case, which was a focus on local music playback and keeping the files sync’d via my LAN. It even supported my hat DAC and my remote control.
+1 for Pangya!
What a fun and silly story this has! I have spent countless hours playing this! Overall my favorite game on the PSP.
Honestly the only real negative is the gotcha system for getting most of the accessories.
Years ago, I once started a new warehouse job, and on day 4, as I was moving inventory on a pallet jack, I see a guy in a forklift zipping by…wearing headphones…plugged into an ipod.
Everyone just accepted this. I didn’t, and I quit at the end of my shift, and told them why. I wasn’t about to get killed by someone driving a forklift who can’t hear their surroundings. Maybe I overreacted, but with how common forklift accidents are, I wasn’t taking the chance.
Thank you for saying that.
A lot of people learn this kind of pranking from others and they don’t see the harm in it, but it really is toxic behavior. I don’t know why anyone would want to make a loved one feel bad on purpose.
A good prank will have everyone enjoying it.
As someone who has both the Switch 2 and the Switch 1 OLED, I appreciate the performance boost that some of my games get with the 2, but I miss my OLED after giving it to my partner. I have even borrowed it a few times for handheld play because of the better screen and longer battery life.
Ultimately it’s up to you and how badly you want to play Switch 2 exclusives right now. Devs are going to keep making Switch 1 compatible games for years, especially given current global economic trends and the scaling back of larger game dev studios.
Personally, I would wait for Nintendo to make a Switch 2 with a better display. The display on mine is full of ghosting and once you notice it, you can’t un-see it and it’s disappointing.
Didn’t GoPro start requiring online activation of their cameras a while back? Like customers couldn’t use it out of the box until they installed the smartphone app and activated it?
Edit: Looks like GoPro did try doing it by using dark patterns first and then getting more aggressive.

My mind has been changed by comments on here.
People can be quite informative, patient, and empathetic. They can write eloquently and persuasively. I’m glad for those people who have helped me change my mind on topics where my view was wrong because of my ignorance or flawed logic.
But in all honesty, I probably would have been better served by in-person public discourse on those topics instead of spending my time reading a bunch of takes from strangers on the internet. In person, you (usually) know everyone participating is real. You can gauge their sincerity by their tone & inflection, facial cues, and body language.
While my mind has been changed by people on here commenting, I still would much rather step away from the internet and talk to people face to face about the topics that effect us the most.
The way you talk to people on Lemmy is unacceptable. The name calling and aggression is not okay. Please do better.
Deezer was playing ICE recruitment ads last year. I think it’s important for people to know so they can make a more informed decision.
FYI Pandora was playing ICE recruitment ads on their service last year.

Trans women in the UK are not even close to legally equal, and that’s just the first group that popped into my head. Imagine how many more women might not actually have equal rights.
