Pretty much this.

I was part of the piracy scene in the early 00’s, and it pretty much went like this:

• Be early. It gets people’s attention when you’re among the first to provide something fresh.
• Be prolific. It builds a brand when you have a lot of scene releases to your name.
• Provide quality. It causes people to prefer and redistribute your releases.

It’s from Everything Everwhere all at Once

That’s why I much prefer the alternate universe equivalent movie Racacoonie

Correct. Because you’re talking about a different government from my government.

Being loved isn’t what should drive you. Your love for something or someone should be.

External validation is always nice, but you should be able to function without it. If you don’t, then you have a truly uphill battle in front of you if being loved is your end goal.

That’s his birth name, yes. But as an artist, his stage name was Joseph Goebbels.

Not to be confused with the R&B propagandist whose birth name is Joseph Goebbels, with stage name Chris Brown

Yes

I love it when I already had you tagged as “LibsBad vatnik weirdo”.

Got any strong feelings on warm water ports you want to share while you’re at it?

Well, we all know what she’s gonna look like… he certainly has a type.

After her disastrous press briefing recently, someone asked if she’d last longer than a head of lettuce (in reference to the Liz Truss lettuce).

Good Work summarized it better than I ever could: https://youtu.be/W0ltbBby9FU

Looking at the map, I think I’ve actually been to all of them except Brandenburg and Saarland.

EDIT: Unsure about Thüringen. And upon checking the autobahn map, I may have briefly been to Saarland.

I can count your ribs faster than I can look up government documentation, and even that’s assuming you’ve already been identified.

I know. I just never bothered to learn them, on the account of being scandinavian.

But I picked up somewhere somehow at some point that Munchen is in Bayern.

I only count one. Mostly because I only know of one and its location with certainty.

Yup, that’s my point. I don’t think a government (should) need this.

On that note, I learned from another commenter that in Germany you can have your gender deleted from their database.

I can think of a handful of ways of confirming someone’s biology without checking official documentation. After all, hospitals still check blood types and tissue types

Does it need to be tied to the legal system, though?

Yeah, that’s what I think some of the replies is missing: Whether or not it needs to be tied to the legal system. I can think of a decent amount of ways of confirming someone’s biology without checking their passport or drivers license.

As for rights and legal protection, I fail to think of a situation in a just society where the same rights and protections shouldn’t apply to both/all.

Optional extra, which I do: Change the SSH port to something non-standard. It’s not more secure, but it does cut down on the logspam.
