Re-reading your original question, it should have been pretty obvious in retrospect that I am not really in the target audience. welp, my bad :P

I didn’t get any blood work done unfortunately, since my doctor’s office refuses to do it without a specific request from my GP (and the whole reason I wanted to do a trial run DIY was because I can’t realistically do this kind of stuff the legit way at the moment), so I just went with a dose a bit higher than the dosages I’d seen recommended online for “most” people and figured it was unlikely that that wouldn’t be enough. Since I saw nipple changes almost immediately I assumed that it was doing the trick, but the expected other effects just never came and I stopped when my nipples had become large enough that I was about to start needing a bra to stop them visibly poking through my shirt.

I didn’t really consider that the longer half-life was super relevant to the “startup delay”, most resources I found online seemed to show it nearly reaching the steady state level after only one or two doses. If that was actually the problem that’s a pretty big derp on my part, but I’m already planning to give it another shot once I’m not living at home.

I did estrogen monotherapy for about 2 months earlier this year. Quite frankly, the only changes I noticed was an immediate and significant increase in nipple sensitivity+size, and a reduction of nighttime erections. Other than that I didn’t notice any of the early changes which I had been lead to expect within the first few weeks: no emotional differences, no reduction in skin oiliness, no changes in body temperature, etc.

For what it’s worth, I was taking 1.4ml/week of 40% estradiol enanthate without any antiandrogens, am in my early 20s and have a very low body mass.

shit

Yes, the top-level domain is still just a domain. I’m not aware of any public Internet services which are reachable from a TLD directly, and it’s strongly discouraged by ICANN, but there isn’t any technical limitation preventing e.g. someone at Verisign from setting up example@com.

My sister has this printed on a t-shirt.

Thinking of a modern GPU as a “graphics processor” is a bit misleading. GPUs haven’t been purely graphics processors for 15 years or so, they’ve morphed into general-purpose parallel compute processors with a few graphics-specific things implemented in hardware as separate components (e.g. rasterization, fragment blending).

Those hardware stages generally take so little time compared to the rest of the graphics pipeline that it normally makes the most sense to have far more silicon dedicated to general-purpose shader cores than the fixed-function graphics hardware. A single rasterizer unit might be able to produce up to 16 shader threads worth of fragments per cycle, so even if your fragment shader is very simple and only takes 8 cycles per pixel, you can keep 8x16 cores busy with only one rasterizer in this example.

The result is that GPUs are basically just a chip packed full of a staggering number of fully programmable floating-point and integer ALUs, with only a little bit of fixed hardware dedicated to graphics squeezed in between. Any application which doesn’t need the graphics stuff and just wants to run a program on thousands of threads in parallel can simply ignore the graphics hardware and stick to the programmable shader cores, and still be able to leverage nearly all of the chip’s computational power. Heck, a growing number of games are bypassing the fixed-function hardware for some parts of rendering (e.g. compositing with compute shaders instead of drawing screen-sized rectangles, etc.) because it’s faster to simply start a bunch of threads and read+write a bunch of pixels in software.

It takes like half a second on my Fairphone 3, and the CPU in this thing is absolute dogshit. I also doubt that the power consumption is particularly significant compared to the overhead of parsing, executing and JIT-compiling the 14MiB of JavaScript frameworks on the actual website.

True, but there are also some legitimate applications for 100s of gigabytes of RAM. I’ve been working on a thing for processing historical OpenStreetMap data and it is quite a few orders of magnitude faster to fill the database by loading the 300GiB or so of point data into memory, sorting it in memory, and then partitioning and compressing it into pre-sorted table files which RocksDB can ingest directly without additional processing. I had to get 24x16GiB of RAM in order to do that, though.

I mean, there are plenty of wealthy immigrants here, but I would say there are probably more immigrant families from regular or (relatively) poor families around. Like, people with a regular income who are working a regular job, not your average finance expat from an English-speaking country on an all-expenses-paid expat package plus a neat half million bucks per year salary on top.

That said, the non-expat immigrants I know are overwhelmingly from eastern European countries, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the acceptance policy is biased against non-Europeans. You don’t see many average working-class Americans around here unless they married a Swiss person.

I have tried hosting a Tor relay on a VPS in the past and it was bottlenecked by the CPU at barely 20MB/s, although to be fair this was without hardware AES. More importantly for you, the server’s IP started getting DDoSed constantly and a whole bunch of big internet services just immediately blocked the address (the list of relay IPs is public and many things just block every address on that list instead of only exit nodes). So any of your machines are probably at least somewhat up to the task (ideally if they have hardware AES support), but this is definitely not something I’d do on my home network.

I think they’re on the end of the catwalk right above the small building in the corner, which would make sense since they’d have to appear in the middle of the sphere unless the image is cropped. Hard to be sure with this resolution, but I’d bet those few lighter pixels are the person holding the camera.

I have a blanket I’ve slept with every day since I was barely a month old (am 23 now), wouldn’t trade it for anything. I can definitely relate :)

This is me, I have had the same thing for breakfast every day for the last 5? maybe 6 years.

Okay, you can’t just drop that bombshell without elaborating. What sort of bug could exist in a program which contains a single return instruction?!?

I’d like my BMI to be higher as well though, I have to pay higher life insurance rates because mine is so low they’ve decided I am “at risk” despite being perfectly healthy :|
