$20 camp shower and a storage bin solves the mank, but I burn easy, so its a yes and situation for me. :)

I’m literally taking a break from the sun, packing out from a regional burn at this very moment. So many incredible stories and incredible people. Lots of cool, kind people who are just excited to share something they’re excited about with others (especially at smaller events/regionals).

My hard earned wisdom is that you are not an audience member at a burn- you’re a participant, an integral part of the experience for everyone else, so don’t be afraid to talk to folks and to join in on whatever shenanigans are going down. Also, bring more sunscreen than you think you’ll need and apply it more often than you think you should.

If only we had received a large influx of socialists and anarchists. <sigh>

Make use of the block function. Lemmy makes it super easy to block assholes and it just makes life more pleasant. In ~2 years, I’ve amassed a block list of 39 users. It turns out that the vast majority of shittiness comes from a very small number of people.

I feel like this might be OS/window-manager dependent. There may be a click to focus setting.

Does the same happen if you alt-tab or click on the title bar instead of within the editor?

GrapheneOS.

Incredible!

Better get while the gettin’s good on that one though. Even if the price stays the same, the value of that free admission appears to be set to diminish rapidly.

With respect, this is a short-sighted take. There’s literally no legitimate crime that is made worse because a person tried to avoid it being detected. Plot a murder over tor? Not a good look. But in what universe is someone less morally culpable because they just posted on craigslist?

On the other hand, allowing the use of encryption or other privacy methods to affect the criminality or punishment assigned to an action just creates a backdoor to criminalizing privacy itself. Allowing that serves no real purpose in deterring folks from hurting others, but it sure does further the interests of an oppressive or authoritarian regime.

I am in fact suggesting that one could choose to do injectables from raws. There’s every indication that raws themselves are shelf stable if stored properly and the learning curve is quite shallow, particularly if you’re doing terminal heat sterilization. The numbers I’ve read give a lifetime of ~5 years for prepared vials and indicate that the rubber stoppers are the weak point, but if you’re preparing your own vials, that’s sort of irrelevant. It takes maybe an hour to prep a vial, which if you’re doing 10ml of estradiol enanthate at 50mg/ml, will last most people at least a year at a sane dosage.

Given the fact that many places are literally sliding daily into fascism, I see no other viable way than DIY for folks to ensure their supply going forward and injectables are the cheapest way to do that (and are likely much better for your health than oral, which is what almost every doctor will start you on). The exact price was not my point- those I imagine will be changing somewhat daily given the state of things. I was mostly just letting OP know that she does not have to be subject to waiting lists or hoops to jump through if she doesn’t want to.

1st, congratulations!

2nd, this is a friendly reminder that DIY is safe, reliable, not subject to the gatekeeping of providers or insurance, inexpensive (I.e. $200 can provide you with a lifetime supply), and does not leave a paper trail if you’re in a jurisdiction where that might be a concern.

Pretty close.

This is unlikely to be helpful, but it tastes almost exactly like HP sauce.

It’s getting to be time to educate parents on diy.

Where is this non-capitalist utopia you think we should emulate. It can be from anytime in history, when and where is it?

If that’s a real question and not a gotcha, I strongly recommend the book The Dawn of Everything. The world is and can be more complicated than the choice between various flavors of authoritarianism.

Personally, I don’t believe in utopia, but I do believe we all deserve an opportunity to exist free of the coercive power of others. The fact that any real community striving for this will be in some way imperfect does not diminish the worthiness of efforts toward that end. We don’t need to emulate some extant utopia, but we might, as individuals and groups, seize the freedom to choose what is best for ourselves in as many ways as we see fit.

Great for camping or if you’re just feeling lazy. Just rip it and sip it. 😂

Due to my habit of eating soup straight from the can, my partners refer to it as “bachelorette chow.” I remain unrepentant.

Voters in the U.S. would, unfortunately, continue to believe that locking people up in torturous conditions for decades is both an effective and just means of dealing with antisocial behavior, all evidence to the contrary notwithstanding.

Humans, in their current form, have survived for ~200k years sans the ability to surveil the location of their children at all times, an activity that has dubious safety benefits.

Honestly, I think this will be a bigger boon to folks like Elevated Access than to the billionaires of the world. Makes it a little harder for some chud who doesn’t like what they’re doing to show up at a pilot’s home with a rifle.

Quite right you are. So I did.
