I’m interested in the viewpoints of gay men on this. I’m happy to retire the term (I don’t even know if I’ve ever actually used it), but it would be good to know if folks are actually getting offended by it.
In modern times I take it to be derogatory in an “involuntary submissive” context. One who sucks cock not because they want to, but because they are in some situation where they must.
My garden patch converted entirely to mint by the end of the warm season. What do?
Yay!
Should I learn iptables or is it more sane to use a front end like ufw?
I have an RPI with dual Ethernet between my modem and consumer router so I don’t have to depend on the obsolete and limited consumer router software. I’m using OpenWRT at the moment but curious if you have other recommendations. I like the Luci gui so if I switched to headless Debian or something then I’d still want a luci equivalent.
I’m self hosting with docker and I want to set up a wireguard vpn container that joins a network with a select set of containers. So I’d have containers that are accessible only by actual LAN users and then others that are in this isolated group that only the VPN (i.e. WAN people) can access. I thought that’s what docker was all about! But by default it seems all authenticated VPN peers just get to be on the LAN. Sure, they can’t get at containers on a different docker bridge network, but they get to access the host itself! This is why I asked about iptables above, but it’s daunting. Any ideas on how to achieve “two levels of trust” for self hosted services?
I’m convinced you could create such a food for humans too, it’s just not many people want that.
I think I’m confused about the term “out of bounds”. Do you mean something that is so extremely left or right that all members of either camp would say, “No no I don’t want to go that far”
Thank you! Good highlight on “without commitment”.
You’re making me feel better about things!
These are valid points from the perspective of the present, near, and even semi distant future. I’m thinking centuries long sci-fi stuff here but I can appreciate not many people would have an interest in that kind of discussion; there are zero things I’m suggesting we do now.
Thanks for coming back with the counterpoints though. I find the “predators would suffer” the most compelling.
Again I’m thinking distant sci fi future here, where life (at least human life) doesn’t require death. But even before that, does life require suffering before that death?
We’re talking philosophy here right? I’m ok if you figure “That’s just your opinion, man…”. But is there anything logically inconsistent with extending “I’d like to reduce suffering” to “We need to control nature, eventually”?
Thanks for your honest feedback and sharing.
What’s a behavioural diet, just like what you said with “if you do this, then that”?
I’m willing to try this if I can introduce it gradually.
I’ve heard talk of this causing “disordered eating” but haven’t done the reading myself on that. Do you think it caused any negative outcomes for yourself?
I am serious but also realize it’s an extreme idea. That’s why I’m putting out there, seeing if I can moderate it a bit with other perspectives. But I see it as a natural extension to animal ethics. I don’t see how we can wash our hands of animal suffering as soon as we’re not involved in it.
Any tips? You’re freaking me out with regards to my little dude.
I don’t know if you or I are on the spectrum, but we’re in whatever club has people that like to explain eating habits in excruciating detail.
I demand X-Ray or shorter wavelengths for my handrail sanitary standards.
Ok I’ll be that guy.
Human problems first. Let’s say we make it past this century, post scarcity, immortal, floating around in space or ascended or something.
Would you think about changing the ecosystem then? Nature’s pretty awful. Whether it’s the carnivores tearing apart herbivores or the herbivores starving themselves from over eating, like, I’d like to change that. Edit their genes maybe?
Ok speaking of this, where do a distro’s config and boot scripts even come from? Are they in a package? Like on Debian so the .debs have metadata that can add cron jobs and such?
I believe you but in the spirit of regex, can you explain?
I guess hyphen is literal outside of square brackets. But then you’re escaping an angle bracket?
Also curious what trouble OP was having. Wouldn’t a trailing space be enough?

That’s what I find so absurd about the “humans need variety in their diet” mantra. If we need some vast unknown combination of things, how is it that letting people loose on supermarkets and choosing their own recipes somehow achieves that, compared to at least some first pass attempt based on macro nutrients?
