He's part of the nightmare though. Only after he's gone would it be over.

No worries! Like I said, missing context from the deletion. For the record, they were conflating sex and gender and thinking they were the same thing.
Which, obviously - no, definitely not the same thing, and both are important.
Edited to add: and I completely understand how the lost context can make things more confusing, so seriously, no worries. I just wanted to be clear that was not what I was saying at all.
We're going well past "these two words mean the same thing!" that I was replying to, probably because they deleted their comment. So there is missing context.
So trans women's brains mirror those of cis women more closely than cis men, and vice versa for trans men.
Because sex is not a binary either. I'm not a geneticist, doctor, etc, but this is fairly well established AFAIK, showing that 'male' and 'female' are more akin to general groupings, with a degree of overlap, than any actual dichotomy.
As a sample reference:

To quote that example:
Gender and sex are closely related yet distinct concepts—sex is considered a collection of biological characteristics, and gender is considered a collection of socially constructed roles, behaviors, expressions, and identities.
Regarding the next bit from you:
Also, treating sex as the only one that is relevant in medicine is reductive and inaccurate.
It would be, but that isnt what I said, right from the quote you have of me:
Sex and gender are still entirely distinct
I never, at any point, said that only sex mattered in medicine. I said they were distinct.
I doubt it was your intention to do so, but youre putting words in my mouth. Please don't misrepresent me.
Once youre talking science, sex and gender are two very different definitions. Colloquial use of words doesnt really factor in.
If you mean sex and gender, gender was used only used for classifying nouns up until around 50 years ago. At that point is when it was used by feminists to create a distinction between sex and gender (and as a means of identifying gendered social constructs), using it as a synonym for sex is more recent.
Sex and gender are still entirely distinct when it comes to medical science, psychology, neuroscience, etc.
(I may be missing another historical usage here, but it would be a modern use of 'gender' definitely. I think the timeline is about right though.)
Well yes, but that's a positive. They are spreading the messages also noted in the article which are important to get out there. The press is a valuable tool to do that.
Personally I avoid external enclosures for data - they can be finicky in many scenarios.
Are you looking to only have one machine, or is it an option to keep the one you have as well? You could put the more intensive stuff on the new machine, and keep the existing as the data store (and maybe lightweight service stuff, like DNS or homepage or whatever).
I don't believe I claimed anything otherwise - just pointing out they exist, and you can find examples here on Lemmy.
How prevalent outside of online spaces.... I don't know, not something I'd be tracking personally.
Would be a fun name for a repo of ttrpg stuff, one pagers, etc
What about it is more complicated? The experience with qsv has always been easier IMO for anything transcode, and I (maybe mistakenly) thought it used ffmpeg for that under the hood?
FWIW, qsv does all my Jellyfin transcoding like an absolute champ, which is why I'm surprised and curious.
Ahah! Thanks I'll give that a try
I can see how your first comment would be construed as if there was a way more significant number of them. While you don't call out a number or say most/all/whatever, its so general that it could be read as implying many of them. A quick edit could clear that up for others.
