Bit-breaker working in cybersecurity/IT. Only languages I know are English and Programming ones.

Sometimes I write things about technology.

If I told you the SHA256 for this sentence starts with 'c, 5, four, a, and a', would you believe me?

    Conventions I have are:

    • Downloads folder is ephemeral, don’t store/keep things in there I might want
    • ~/scripts - personal scripts and one offs
    • ~/Documents/projects/[subdir] - any tech project I may be working on, gets homed here
    • /tmp - always mount it noexec

    I also start off allocating ~ 50GB to / (root) volumegroup. Wine and proton have been taking up nearly the full space though, may need to expand it on my desktop soon.

    It’s not really worth it. A lot more complexity for the trigger and firing mechanisms, barrel alignment; etc. Weight is also a concern with any carry weapon. There were a couple of weapons in history that tried a dual mag setup

    MP40I
    The Burton
    AF2011 (More double barrel but does fire simultaneously)

    There’s also the DIY jungle style

    coupled magazines, refers to detachable box magazines, and thereof, that are fixed together side by side, for example, with tape, or purpose made magazine clamps, also called magazine couplers. The spare magazine may be pointing downwards in relation to the one fitted to the weapon, as to keep the feeding lips clear for insertion into the weapon.

    In general these days, belt fed weapons are used for more capacity where needed.

    Appreciate the in depth reply. I don’t have experience being a trans person or dating one or even hitting it off enough to get to that point. So my words are purely from a heterosexual male perspective without evidence to support it.

    For your bullet points and me specifically.

    • possibly. Sexual intimacy is an important component of a relationship, to me. I cannot have sexual enjoyment or attraction with another penis.

    • I don’t feel there would be any hangups, just would want to make sure my lady is happy and medically safe, though that means more work as a partner

    • don’t see an issue with this either, as long as it was disclose it. same as above for potential concerns. Finding out after a wedding or a few years dating would definitely cause me some issues.

    If I hit it off with a woman and before we got to the stage of dating offically, and we had that conversation, no it would not be a deal breaker for me. Communication is important though
