  • You have COMPLETELY misread my comments and missed the point.

    My point was that there are plenty of other better devices suited to these tasks than a little obscure laptop with a crappy keyboard, such as an iPad or Android tablet or eink tablet, or even a phone. My argument wasn’t “hurr durr doing nothing would be better”.

    My opinion is “valid in this context” because I’ve spent countless hours RDPd in to various machines and servers in trains, buses , passenger seats of cars, on the side of the road,etc fixing issues and making changes that saved literal millions of dollars at a time, and the last thing I’ve wanted in those situations was a worse device to do it on simply because it’s “different”.


  • Dunno if you deleted your comment or what but I have the notification for it so I’ll reply to this one:

    XXY karotypes exist, sure - that would be a male with a DSD. All DSDs affect either a male or a female. They are disorders that affect one or both sexes, not different sexes.

    Phenotypes are whole irrelevant. They’re just observable traits , like height or eye colour. There are no “female sex determining phenotypes”.

    It all is very complex, but the number of sexes isn’t - male and female are all there is.

    Also you used a fungus as an example of 20k sexes? This is incorrect. There are “20k” mating types, not sexes.











  • “Trans” means people who are one sex who think they are the other, or think they are a “gender” different to what their sex determined gender is. That’s fine, they can identify themselves however they want in terms of “gender identity”.

    Gender as it is now used is basically a “feeling”. It’s not scientific. It’s not based on science or biology or anything tangible. It’s literally just feelings. This is why there should not be any laws based on “gender”, but instead all based on sex - when anyone can change their gender at any time, basing anything on gender is completely pointless.

    Sex is not “fuzzy”. There are 2 sexes, male and female. 2 gametes. 2 chromosomes. These “men” who can give birth are females/women who “identify” as the gender of “man”.

    For the bearded women, facial hair doesn’t determine sex.


  • You’re just playing semantics.

    I’m playing semantics? I’m not the one saying that a lower interest rate is a discount. An interest rate is by itself a price increase, not a discount. The interest rate is on the LOAN, not on the car. The car is the same price as it was. The LOAN is always more than the price of the car.

    This is like saying that you get a “discount” if you pay the RRP in cash. You don’t, you’re just not paying interest on a loan. It’s not a discount.

    I’m not sure why you think you’re the only person that understands the simple concept of interest here.

    Because you guys calling this a “discount on the price of the new model Y” clearly don’t lol. It is a simple concept, yet you guys are showing again and again that you don’t get it. When interest rates on mortgage decrease you don’t say “house prices have just been discounted!”, do you?
