It actually kinda makes sense. Two sounds that a U commonly makes are "OO" like in "yule" and "UH" like in "just". If you say "OO-UH" close enough together it makes the sound of a W.

You might want to start taking testosterone blockers (spironolactone for example) asap to avoid any unwanted changes. The T-blockers themselves won't have a huge effect on your body, it might very slightly change your body hair growth and it might make your skin a bit softer but that's about it.

Then once you're ready you can start taking estrogen -- usually in the form of estradiol pills, although there are other options.

Also, if you're from Canada -- Ontario or Alberta specifically, there's a very good service called Foria https://www.foriaclinic.com/

It's not covered through provincial healthcare unfortunately, but it is a not-for-profit service so they keep it as cheap as they can. It winds up being about $200 a year for most patients.

Another thing that wasn't mentioned in the video that Proton does is it also -- sometimes, depending on the game -- checks a list of known requirements for a game and installs them through winetricks, or makes other recommended changes to game files that are known to make the game work.

When Proton is updated and the patch notes mention that a game was fixed, it's something to do with this part of the process. A certain library, or whatever was missing and Proton installs it for you behind the scenes.

It also runs WINE through Steam's launcher (aka Steam Linux Runtime) which has some common redistributables (aka Steamworks SDK Redist) built right into it, and it also runs appropriate anti-cheat solutions (aka Proton EasyAntiCheat Runtime or Proton BattlEye Runtime).

That was intense, but very good!

One thing not left wing and it's all right wing? Only a Sith deals in absolutes.

It sounds like you're thinking of Libertarianism which is a subset of liberalism, but they are distinct.

Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, right to private property and equality before the law. Liberals espouse various and often mutually warring views depending on their understanding of these principles but generally support private property, market economies, individual rights (including civil rights and human rights), liberal democracy, secularism, rule of law, economic and political freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, and freedom of religion. Liberalism is frequently cited as the dominant ideology of modern history.

If you're in Canada, there's an online service called Frida https://www.talkwithfrida.com/

I was personally diagnosed by a psychiatrist who I was referred to by my family doctor. I think you have to go through a psychiatrist at least while you're titrating your dose but then your family doctor may be able to take over once you're about where you need to be.

You're right. Here's the NVIDIA GPU Codec Support Matrix: https://developer.nvidia.com/video-encode-and-decode-gpu-support-matrix-new

and I looked up GTX 1660 Ti, the only codec it doesn't support is av1. That's the issue for sure.

Good luck getting open source maintainers that aren't woke. We're all queer down here!

That's a handsome woman right there!

As a transgender woman, I have personally experienced that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) -- which includes estrogen as well as testosterone blockers -- slowed down my facial hair growth and thinned out of my facial hair. So testosterone levels play a small part in facial hair growth. However, I doubt that the levels within a cisgender male would vary enough to cause any significant changes.

It's probably just that there's a fair bit of hair growth that happens before the hairs reach the surface of your skin, like a millimeter or two. When you shave, it only has to grow back enough to pop out over the surface of the skin. If you were to pluck a hair with a pair of tweezers, it would take at least a couple of weeks to grow back. I have done exactly that many times, so at least for me that's the time frame.
