After checking, you can’t really make any conclusions with a sample size this small

It tested 19 cisgender men and 12 trans men, along with 23 trans women and 21 cisgender women

It could give an indicator but clearly not a definitive answer. This has little to no proof value, but hey, in this field, we’re pretty limited with sample size, so we’ll have to do with it.

The reality seems to be that both sides lack scientific and statistical data to back 'em up. The only thing we know rn is that hormonotherapy should be required.

This is no longer a science matter. Unfortunately, it’s become a political matter

Totally agree with this however. This discussion and my recents bans are proof of this.

What is “optimized Windows”? Windows is Windows. There’s no gaming-focused version.

Removing / disabling useless services, tweaking registry…

There’s no such thing, to my knowledge.

SteamOS sure looks like one. Gaming focused if you prefer. I’ve seen a couple on Linux, though I don’t remember their name rn.

What is a “base distro”?

Something like Ubuntu or Mint, which would be more comparable to a desktop experience like windows, ready for productivity

Well, SteamOS vs base Windows isn’t really a good comparison. Best would be optimized Windows vs gaming only distro, or base windows vs base distro

I’d still take this with a grain of salt. Not many games tested, and the SteamOS build might’ve been tweaked and worked on more to be more optimized.

To be fair that’s the state of many people rn. The rest goes for food and other expenses, and savings

Me, critical about Google because they passed a deal with Israel against Palestinians

You:

you are just a Pro-Apple Pro-Israel supporter that hate Palestinians, you literally cannot claim to have the “moral high ground”.

Ok buddy

Apart from that, where did I say that would make Apple better? I asked for proof that Apple donated money to a fascist. I’m still waiting for that, because afaik it did not.

Plus about you original comment, I don’t see any link with them not selling my data and being able to donate to a so-called fascist.

1. I never said to buy a pixel, I merely refuted your claim of apple being “the good guys”

I’ve never said they were. I was just saying what was my preferred phone for privacy and convenience. I also said I hated them. That’s straw man fallacy.

2-3 hours a day

Then I would worry about OP’s health

Else, then you discovered an IRL exploit to get rich

(I know this was not meant seriously)

What? Who?

You prefer Google, a company that actively works with Israel for military purposes, against Palestinians, by offering them their cloud services, and then firing the employees that were protesting? It must feel good to purchase a Pixel from them, heh?

I know

GrapheneOS tested and I ended up going back to Apple.

It’s good in concept but in reality you’re just forced to used play services because most apps require it, but you lose mobile payment and access to some apps because you’re not running a whitelisted OS. App makers don’t give a fuck because custom ROM users are fewer than Linux users, and we all know most software and games don’t give a fuck about Linux users.

Stock GrapheneOS also feels like a jump in the past in terms of UI and accessibility. I felt like I was always going out of my way to make it somewhat usable.

The Pixel also has a battery that doesn’t last long and poor charge retention on idle (Android phones do be like that though). I found out that many tasks cause it to heat a lot. Something like updating an app takes ages and shows visual bugs, like no progress indicator.

I hate Apple but at least I trust that they don’t sell my data to everyone, and they have a good UI.

If the end it’s about how much you’re willing to trade your convenience for privacy. I realized I wasn’t ready.

But it can be cleaned, right?

I’m obviously talking about things other than water. You should obviously drink and use the water from your house

Glass, stainless steel I guess.

Use a water bottle in stainless steel: safe to drink from and to wash, not really heavy, and keeps the temperature. Stainless steel is for reusable containers, but I’m not sure you can recycle it easily and efficiently. It’s also a bit expensive.

Glass is infinitely recyclable but it needs a lot of energy to be produced and recycled (you need to heat it a lot), is fragile, relatively expensive, and a lot is needed to make a good container, so it gets heavy, which might outweigh the positives sides it has.

Short distribution channels would be the best

Else, fruits and food that don’t really need packaging because they have a natural bacteria barrier, or something similar

But yea I don’t see any good sanitary alternative. Since we’re bound to get microplastics I guess reusable containers that are only washed and reused a couple of times would be beneficial, at the cost of a little more microplastics.

Some kind of paper to a certain extend for some things, but yea, nothing is as good as plastic :(

Don’t use plastic where you don’t need to. And then maybe use cardboard+thin plastic for the rest: less recyclable, but less plastic 🤔. Depends on the route you want to choose: less pollution or less plastic waste

I’m just saying that doesn’t really sound efficient, I’m not trying to be a dick

You can do that if you want to eat a lot of microplastics

I read it as “ban glass and cardboard as well”

There is no such thing as an indefinitely recyclable plastic. The best kind can only be recycled a few times.
