You already have to go through tons of therapy and other conservative treatments before you get a sex change operation. That exists TODAY. Same with abortion.

No one can get it on a whim. Doctors require requisites to make sure it's right for you, and it should stay up to the doctors' discretion.

It's nonsense saying it's overused as if doctors and the patient don't know what they're about to go through.

I think it's the 3 dot menu at the top right

How many people do you think majored in gender studies? The biggest field by far is STEM. Engineers, scientists, mathematicians/physicists, and IT still find it hard to find a job and are facing unprecedented layoffs.

That's a cop out. Blocking requires engagement with the content, and some of us want a blanket ban so it doesn't seep into our space.

I just want to post about fun stuff without having to wade waist deep in content that wants people to kill themselves.

No. The point is so that servers can do what they want without influence. If a server hates Nazis, then they don't have to participate with them. That's their right.

If a server wants free speech, they can do that, but it'll always eat itself and that's fun to watch as people piss and moan now that people don't want to engage with them.

If you think this is about free speech, I think you should join a free speech server. I'll laugh when you find out free speech servers are just hateful places without consequences, though!

Same, and I was active on hobby forums where I answered questions. I feel bad for the people who responded to me year(s) later thanking me, but reddit doesn't need the SEO boost

I was about to ask why they put Leftists on there 8 times, but maybe it's just us!

I have a 5.1 as well, and I use software normalization (Plex and through my Shield) to fix it. I know there's a way to tune it via hardware, but my setup is an ancient Yamaha receiver and I prefer the software normalization.

Mixing can be a mixed bag, as everyone uses different hardware to master their sound, but normalization or boosting center fixes it 99% of the time.

Because the terminology is Master and Slave. That's been device terminology for half a century, and has been phased out over the last decade. It's silly to complain that they would change it.

I now say Primary and Secondary for device terminology, and Main, Stage, and Dev for branch terminology. It doesn't impact my daily life enough to be mad they don't keep Master/Slave terminology.

Yeah, Mac is a competent *NIX BSD system. The problem is the price and lack of control. Anyone who thinks Mac isn't on the Linux side 50% of the time hasn't used it.

Work only gives me the option between Mac and Windows, and I'll pick the *NIX 100% of the time.

They're definitely swapped

It's because they're mixing dialogue for the center channel speaker. Most people don't have a center channel on their TV or sound bar, but some "Dialogue Mode"s will exclusively play the center channel and drown out the sound effects. It's a trade off, but one that most manufacturers don't even give the option for.
