Aww man, this is not the follow-up I was hoping for..

Ah, I see. Thanks for the explanation

Actually it seems the post body has the same image again so i can read it there. Works for me

Hm.. I count 2, maybe 3 pixels

Sorry but I feel like yapping about this so..

I'd say you are trying to reason against a factual point made in the post. For that your fist step is to remove as much (social) context from the hypothetical as possible by referring to an abstract entity and opinion. And to be honest, your factual reasoning is impeccably, logically true. But are you sure anyone was having this debate with you in the first place? Not to discredit you, but your three step argument here is as succinct as it is obvious (at least to me). I disagree not with your argument, but your choice to engage with the original statement as a factual debate point. There's a chance the OP had intended to communicate a very different message than all men's opinions on oneself being always irrelevant. Removing context to only engage with the factual dimension of their statement deprives you of a chance to learn more about the OPs and the communities intentions and values. Much like past public conversations (remember gamer gate, or more recently the hypothetical of the bear vs man) I personally believe the point of hyperbolic feminist statements is not for you to debate them, or push back against them, but to understand them. After all, saying essentially "not all men" is factually true and very easy, but doesn't actually help anyone/improve anything. I wonder what kind of social interactions would lead to OP posting this (and this community identifying with it)? Perhaps a systemic patriarchy could put unjust pressure on a person to push them into a very understandably unnuanced response to such mistreatment. Either way I gain much more insight by empathizing with the post. Arguing factually would feel like punching ghosts while wasting energy that could be used to improve society a little.

I know that for me anyway, I read similar opinions when I was a young man and felt unfairly discriminated. But to be honest, looking back, I was never entitled to women who had suffered much worse under the patriarchy expertly lecturing me in my relative privilege (and all that without hurting my feelings). Like sure, me feeling unfairly judged for my gender whenever I misunderstood such a post as an attack on me personally was unfair too, but simply not the point, nor a priority here. If I could travel back in time to give some advice and emotional support to the young me, I'd rather find someone else who needs it way more to give it to. Nowadays I like to consider words not just for what they communicate, but also for what they do. And if this post helped someone vent who really needed it and gave a relatable outlet to this community than all I have to do is recognize it for the mutual support it is. I'm writing this because hearing it earlier would have saved me much frustration fighting imaginary misandrist feminists and because I'm also still just figuring much of this out myself.

Oh no, it seems the Germans have broken confinement!

Isn't it the first book in a series? I think I remember reading the whole series a while back

No idea why this is downvoted. Seems like a helpful suggestion

Thank you for pointing that out! I missed the context of the survival backpack and now it makes more sense. When you view this as more of a 'what if' for a somewhat (hopefully) fictional situation this becomes a fun challenge of creating PCBs from limited resources. I'm wondering how I might try to build a PCB under such circumstances now. I'm still not a fan of their 'urban mining' though. If anything I believe there would be better sources for silver in a disaster/post-apocalypse.

Idk, this one is weird to me. I agree that micro electronics production is not conflict free and appreciate a search for alternatives, but clay? From an engineering perspective this isn't just a bad material for PCBs, it's neigh impossible to use. How would that affect device longevity, or recyclability? Their production process is quite failure prone as they mention. Not to mention how their design is easily magnitudes larger than a comparable laminated fiber PCB. Also urban-mined is a needlessly opaque buzzword imo. They mean recycled, right? Just say so, no need for flourishes. Emphasizing that the clay is sourced from a wild forest and burned over a bonfire is meant to feel sustainable via association. There is nothing environmentally conscious about these inefficient methods and it makes this project appear amateurish. Nothing wrong with amateur attempts to help the problem, but somehow I get the feeling no one bothered to ask a PCB fab worker or repair technician along the way. More sustainable PCBs start with open source documentation and freely available replacement parts, not forest clay. Full disclosure, I read the description text on the site and (only) skimmed through the video. Feel free to correct me if I misrepresented anything.

A hero of science! We thank you!

Idk, maybe the collapse of Yugoslavia? Perhaps the Ottoman rule and aftermath. Different religions tied to different cultures as a deviding factor seem to stand out to me

Edit: I can't read apparently, disregard my comment.

Graphene OS only works on Pixel Phones. They're really the gold standard. Pick one from the supported list on the graphene os website that suits your needs.

Thank you. The positive reception so far has really motivated to keep writing!

I think it's fine if a cliffhanger asks new questions, but if there are any unknowns or uncertainties during the story I'd rather have them answered by the end though.

I love to see individual scenes, characters, etc pointed out. Another fun one is questions of any kind. About the plot, or even the intentions behind the writing. I think part of the fun in sharing fanfic is receiving different perspectives on your own creations. This definitely includes critique too. Of course it can be hard to formulate precise and helpful critique but that's often the only critical input a new writer has access to.

Well then why not say that then? I could follow the rest of the screenshot conversation but that part confused me. Anyone should be able to call out homophobia and gatekeeping the right to such critique hardly benefits any oppressed groups. And I think we probably agree on that.

Your statement likely made more sense in context, but that's missing in the screenshot. Generalizations like this are wrong and easy enough to avoid.
