  • You have another slot most likely, it’s just populated by the Wifi card, If you’re willing to sacrifice that and use one of those tiny USB wifi adapters you can use that as your second slot with a little adapter to convert between E key to M key. Also have to use a 2230 SSD since the longer ones won’t fit in the spot.





  • Yeah the amount that it’s offensive is dependent on the context, but that’s really true of any descriptive term. In those contexts it’s the insults or animosity that determine offensiveness, not the descriptive terms.

    I.e. “those dirty fucking cyclists” in this phrase which would be offensive to cyclists it is the insult and the animosity that make it offensive, not the descriptive term itself.

    Obviously it’s different when you use actual slurs to describe the person but in the situations described with use of cisgender that usually isn’t the case (there are slur uses of cis but they’re rare and not used much, therefore have low recognition).






  • I don’t and will not use blocking for users basically for that reason, it doesn’t actually solve anything it’s just pretending things are okay for you when they aren’t for everyone else. It’s probably the reason why reporting doesn’t happen as much as it should.

    Even in harassment it is particularly useless because even though you stop seeing them and getting notifications they can continue replying in your threads, they can even use that to turn people against you. If it at least prevented posting and commenting on your profile I’d use it in those situations, but as it stands it doesn’t, so it’s useless to me, because if somebody is harassing me, the last thing I want to do is hide them while allowing them to keep harassing me, it gives them mote opportunities to cause trouble and removes my opportunity to report them for that trouble.

    I don’t think that would really work since in order to make it anonymous it would need to be hidden from the other servers as well which would cause issues with moderation since if it’s never dealt with On the origin server a person could cause a lot of trouble with it, yeah you could have so that it would only be visible by moderators and admins but that also doesn’t really work if admins can view it since anyone can set up a server.

    Yeah that would be very difficult to implement safely, and probably wouldn’t be worth the effort since the Federated model means that signing up for an account somewhere on the Fediverse is much easier already.

    Anonymous posting might have been a necessary evil on the early internet before you had all these Federated servers, but nowadays having other servers fills the role of granting easier access since you can sign up to another one where that process may be easier.
