Nope. The survived an explosion, fell a few miles, and got crushed inside the capsule and killed by g forces upon hitting the water...

As a vampire, please don't compare us to those fucking monsters. It's extremely insensitive. Most of us are, in fact, antifascist, probably from the turnings of dying allied soldiers during the war....

Okay but like, the human body does in fact suck in many ways, one of those being that we're naturally filthy as fuck.

It's worth noting that the above is, of course, an opinion. I find human stench repulsive. Many do. Some don't. But regardless, I don't think less of a person or culture for not using or having access to the typical hot water + exfoliating + soap + deodorant + scent + moisturizer method that western culture holds so dear. I couldn't do without it. And yes I'm slightly grossed out as a natural reaction when people don't use it. But I don't think "that uncultured savage pig doesn't bathe* in that situation, that would just be horrible. Unfortunately many do think that way, and I agree that that kind of hostile, accusatory thinking is likely partially due to western marketing.

I personally am a transhumanist in philosophy. I think that if we can make a way to make the human body some radiant vessel that would have been worshipped as a goddess across most of human history, that such an endeavor is worth while. But many look down on others when such standards become normalized. That is the key difference: another main tenant of transhuman philosophy is the idea of bodily autonomy. You inhabit the vessel you want, whether bathed or not.

And I agree that marketing has, in fact, been instrumental in pushing that "your body is fucking disgusting" idea onto others so heavily. Capitalism capitalizes best on making people feel lower or less important without a product.

In many companies access is removed before they're notified so vengeful employees can't go in and fuck things up right after being terminated.

You interact with the fediverse.

You're on at least 3 terrorist watchlists. Period.

It also heavily depends on what hormones if any the transgender woman is on. Monotherapy increases estrogen count well above cis female levels, and both monotherapy and via T blockers reduce testosterone so drastically that agab has absolutely no role in overall strength. I had moderate muscle mass and a very lean build before transitioning (from amateur climbing and track), and quickly lost all of that within four months on monotherapy even with regular gym attendance. My leg strength stayed about the same but overall build and gains are exactly on par with my cisgender peers now. The point being I'm not sure one can even argue that they could train on natural T before transitioning to gain an advantage, as maintaining that muscle mass is near impossible. And if policing hormonal levels becomes a thing if low-dosage is a concern, then many cisgender women would also be barred for competing due to naturally high testosterone.

Fair take. I just always considered Twitter a shithole to begin with. I don't give him the honor of renaming it because he thinks his kids shouldn't get the same rights as a software package in that regard.

I could see LoRa radio nodes making deep-forest IoT sensors possible. Have a solar station with starlink provide internet access, then use it as a LoRa (or other packet radio) modem for a couple-mile radius of sensors. Each sensor package could be a fairly cheap box with sensor, solar power and a radio. Would be super easy to deploy hundreds of those, all served by the same completely autonomous satellite station, and cheap to replace failing hardware (just see which nodes stop talking and send replacements when a bunch fail).

But there shouldn't be an apostrophe there... it's = it is, its = posessive.
