I'm not sure what it's like in the US but here in Australia "Nazi" has just come to mean a White man of good character who doesn't want eleventy billion brown foreigners flooding his country.
It's 100% effective for at least one person.
Yes, that's the conclusion I came to as well. The best analogue I can think of is taxation, where men - whose sexual values are impacted far more by control of resources - are typically far more aggrieved by the practice than women (who typically see it as a wonderful practice that ought to be expanded).

It feels odd for them to be advertising this belief though. These are surely a lot of the same people trying to devalue virginity, glorifying public sex positivity, condemning "slut shaming", etc.

Maybe I've got a case of the 'tism, but I really don't see an issue with it. Can someone explain?

It's a fictional creation. Nobody is "taking her clothes off", a bot is fabricating a naked woman and tacking her likeness (ie. face) on to it. If anything, I could see how this could benefit women as they can now start to reasonably claim that any actual leaked nudes are instead worthless AI slop.

I don't think I would care if someone did this to me. Put "me" in the most depraved crap you can think of, I don't care. It's not me. I suspect most men feel similarly.

What's the big deal?

There's nothing you can do. The goyim know!

It's disgraceful! I don't see how this benefits Israel at all!

>because of that I have a really hard time convincing myself that I should be in one too

Did you mean shouldn't? Why would scaring(?) a random cyclist take precedence over your family's safety? Is this the moral circle heatmap meme again?

How on earth did you manage to get this far before learning of the Android app by the same name? You can't call this Tasker.

Are you willing to expand more on the meltdown? Coming to terms with being a grown up? Did your marriage survive?

Playing in Excel one day, I added a button, then double clicked the button, and the world of Visual Basic appeared. It was like peeking behind the curtain. "Is this how they do it!?"

I wrote some surprisingly complex interfaces for online services in Excel, without having much of a clue what I was doing. I didn't understand variables so memory was handled by reading and writing to the spreadsheet - arbitrary cells would hold values, rows were my arrays. In hindsight this very visual way of representing memory was probably helpful to my learning.

This is especially bizarre given that he explains above that "it is rare that copying a partial string is the right choice" and that the previous solution returned an error...

So now it silently fails and sets dest to an empty string without even partially copying anything!?

I don't care about the upgradeability or repairability. I think that people espousing these points need a reality check - other laptops aren't that bad for repairability (I have always had Alienwares, and have had no trouble sourcing and installing parts in laptops even 10+ years old), and piecemeal upgrades really don't make sense in the long term. Framework also seems to have attracted a certain type of activist that I won't get into here (they're very opinionated about the company's donations).

I've ordered a Framework 16, though. Not for any of that crap, but just to be able to customise it. That's what I love. They should really lean in to this.

Once the eco and repairability nonsense has faded - and it will, because it's marketing fluff - you still have a laptop that is extremely versatile from a company that doesn't hate you. It's not bloated with spyware by default, the checkout process isn't full of dark patterns, they support and encourage you to use it how you want to use it.

Lean in. Make more modules. Make better modules. Assist the community more with new and varied modules. It's crazy that eGPU and dual USB modules are primarily driven by amateur forum volunteers rather than being major priorities for Framework's engineers. Design a low-profile mechanical keyboard, I don't care for your excuses. Give us proper touchpad options with buttons. Keyboard modules with scroll wheels and panning for CAD.

These are what makes Framework special. In 3 or 4 years it's going to be thrown on the same pile as all of my other old laptops, never to be upgraded or repaired again. I don't care for that. I just want a laptop customised for my needs over that time, rather than fighting against the antagonistic whims of Dell et al.
