  • I really, really wish we could degender “guy” and “guys”. I know plenty of people of all genders that use the words in general to describe people, objects, concepts, everything. The only holdouts are people that insist on it specifically meaning males. Ironically, these people are often the hardcore feminists.

    If other English words can change their meanings and be claimed/reclaimed by certain groups, why can’t others?

    Take guy! Use it to describe whatever you want! Free it of its historically phallic shackles!


  • Not necessarily. The LLC will pay out as much as it can and then filler for bankruptcy. The individuals will likely get off scott free since they’ve not actually been convicted of any wrongdoing.

    I imagine that developing Yuzu and Citra would be a huge item on their CVs, too. Honestly, if Nintendo were smart, they would have tried to buy the project somehow and hire the developers to work on backwards compatibility for whatever the console that comes after the Switch 2 is…





  • I have a Boox Nova Air. It’s a 7" B&W e-reader. It’s nice to have a boring Android tablet that also happens to be an e-reader.

    I wouldn’t recommend ePaper for anything but the very lightest of web browsing. The like refresh rate really is a lot to take in.

    Using the pen is nice. It feels a lot like black magic, really. It’s just like drawing on paper.

    If like to get a colour version to read comics, but let’s face it, I can’t even remember where my current one is, let alone the last time I turned it on…

    I started paying for YT Premium a few years ago when there was an election on, and one of the absolute worst minor parties that’s run by a billionaire just threw money at YouTube advertising.

    I haven’t looked back. I watch YT content on my ShieldTV poetry much exclusively, so adblock doesn’t work anyway :/





  • Then you are a good agent! My last job was for the ATO, processing tax returns & activity statements, managing written-off debt, doing the call centre stuff. I got a pretty bad taste in my mouth from some of the tax agent stuff I saw going on. Especially those big firms, especially eTax. Agents like yourself with business tax returns and activity statements were almost universally legends to deal with.

    So many of my current colleagues absolutely insist that they must use a tax agent because it’s all so complicated. “Do you have investments? Rental income? Run a side hustle? No? Then just go to myGov”

    …only to find out that they just went straight back to their dodgy agent.


  • You missed the “for my use case” part. I won’t go into all the details, but browser and search are pretty much the only things that I can ditch at the moment.

    Unfortunately, degoogled Android is still… Android. That OS has been made considerably less fun and enjoyable over the last few years by Google themselves, regardless of any of their additional services. :(
