Agreed, masculists, especially the young ones, are mostly socially anxious and socially scared people who find shelter from their anxiety by oppressing another group. The solution is probably to work on this social anxiety from childhood.

I don't deny that the current experience of life is different because of gender/sex. So I am rather talking about the target, a society without sexism.

Is it really so difficult to accept that men might find purpose or value that differs from women?

Yes, I am indeed questioning this point. Is this difference in the essence of the gender or is it a social construct?

For me, it's actually not hard to imagine that men and women could share the same distribution of purposes and values, if the environment in which they grew up supported it. The diversity would be based on the uniqueness of individuals with little to no influence from the gender.

I find it very oppressing to have the specific framework you mention associated to you because of your gender. What about transgender people or people who don't associate with a traditional gender?

Kind of agree, and so are modern cities in Japan in general, everything is asphyxiated under concrete, including river, and there's no attempt at regulating construction to create an aesthetic.

Do we really need to make the framework different for male and female humans? Why not use one for humans and teach tolerance to difference in general? I don't think many of the issues we face will be solved if we keep two different frameworks.

The point is that they don't need to invest in stock to afford healthcare, retirement and education. So, major parts of their life are not tied to the uncertainties of the free market, hence one of the argument of the article about why they have more freedom than the USA citizens who are.

Why do you think it's a generalization on boys rather than a denunciation of the negative impact of masculinists on boys?

Just wanted to report that the latest Nicole spam I received 10 min ago is asking for crypto "donations".
So this may be finally the reason for the phishing, getting crypto donations from gullible people.

Looks like this:

By the way, has anyone contacted Imgur about this? I think they would take it pretty seriously.

Nobody in Europe has spent the past week looking at their stock portfolio, wondering if they could still afford to send their kids to university.

The recent TV show Adolescence is a good watch related to this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolescence_(TV_series)

Rugby star Sébastien Chabal won two Six Nations titles with France, reached a World Cup semifinal and played 62 times for his nation as a powerful forward.

But he does not remember any of it due to memory loss stemming from the concussions he sustained as a player.

“I don’t remember a single second of a rugby match I played. And I don’t remember a single one of the 62 Marseillaises (national anthems) I experienced,”

Some of his plays https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KK7viBLQz8M

The FBI assassination part seems to be corroborated by this National Archive page https://www.archives.gov/research/african-americans/individuals/fred-hampton. I guess NARA being an official USA agency, they would not make a claim against the FBI without being certain.

I have followed this wiki guide: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Localization/Japanese#Japanese_Input, picking Fcitx5 and Mozc, but I still don't have a functioning setup after spending 3 evenings on it.

I have the IME selector in the top bar where I can select Mozc and the Mozc menus display just fine.


(Gnome doesn't let me screenshot this menu, for some reason)

  1. But as you can see, the IME name is replaced by a white rectangle, I guess it should be a Japanese character.
  2. When I try typing with Mozc activated, the popup does appear and the output text is written in Japanese characters, which means I have correctly installed the Japanese font, but the popup contains white rectangles instead of Japanese characters.

I think this means that Gnome doesn't find the Japanese font, but I couldn't find in the guide how to tell Gnome to use it.

Can anyone give me a hint?

よろしくお願いします

Edit: For some reason fcitx5-config-qt, which is the UI to control the IME, started saying it could not find shared library libKF6WindowSystem.so.6 and refused to open, even though it did open before. So I had to install the related package kwindowsystem and the UI works again now.

Edit2:

By re-reading, I understood that Gnome already comes the IMF ibus installed. So I decided to remove everything I did for the IMF fcitx5 and just install the package ibus-mozc.

After that, I was able to set Japanese (Mozc) in Gnome Settings > Keyboard > Input Sources > Add Input Source > Japanese > Japanese (Mozc) > Add.

I am back to the point where I can select Mozc in the top bar, just a bit of a different style from fcitx5, and the Hiragana symbol in the bar still looks like a white rectangle.

Now, there's progress in the candidate pop-up that does display Japanese characters. Except it is white on white and basically unreadable unless the item is selected.

This issue is mentioned here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Mozc#Suggestion_window_is_blindingly_white_in_dark_mode, but the fix mentioned to set up an env var to fall back to the default ibus popup just turns my suggestions into white blocks.

The config entry to do the same documented here https://github.com/google/mozc/blob/master/docs/configurations.md#ibus-candidate-window has the same result.

I think I have to solve at least one of these issues:

  1. Have the Mozc candidate popup correctly render with white text on dark background.
  2. Have the default ibus popup correctly use the Japanese font I have installed.

One would be preferred as Mozc popup is supposed to be more helpful.

J'ai reçu 2 MP de sa part comme illustré sur le poteau de LW lié. https://jlai.lu/post/14946029

 
 

A woman, who was blamed by French courts for her divorce because she no longer had sex with her husband, has won an appeal in Europe's top human rights court, the court said on Thursday, reigniting a debate in France over women's rights.
...
[Lawyer, Lilia Mhissen] "This decision marks the abolition of the marital duty and the archaic, canonical vision of the family," she said in a statement. "Courts will finally stop interpreting French law through the lens of canon law and imposing on women the obligation to have sexual relations within marriage."
