HardlightCereal got banned from Raddle for doxing someone. The site’s primary admin quite literally uses they pronouns. That doesn’t preclude enbypobia in itself but should at least make you question what HardlightCereal’s actual goal is without more evidence.

Not quite. If you are in so deep that you are worried about color you already past the executive order that defines the layout of the flag as you know it.

If you notice all the flags in the video has a singular blue area. This one has two. Whether that is valid or not dependa on how you interpret “union of the flag shall be forty-eight stars, white in a blue field”.

If you think that means the blue area must be contiguous then this flag does not meet the definition. If you think the blue area does not need to be contiguous then this flag may meet the definition.

So I had a conversation on this in a different community. I’m going to summarize my conclusion here.

Sadly the flag code defines the flag as having a singular blue fied.

I tried to get a good definition of what exactly a field is. Here we have the definition “The backdrop color to a flag. Ex: On the Arkansas state flag, it is the red part.”

I’m not actually finding a better definition and am starting to question if the canton in the US flag counts as a field in vexillology terms since it isn’t a ‘backdrop’.

A better way, and perhaps the more accurate, is to ask how we would construct a flag. The red field in the Arkansas flag is one piece of fabric. The blue canton is one piece of fabric. Two blue stripes could be once piece of fabric with everything else sewn into of it. But I think the better construction would be two pieces of fabric sewn on to the outer two stripes.

But I wouldn’t worry about it since section 5 codifies “existing rules and customs pertaining to the display and use of the flag of the United States” by using an existing executive order. That order’s attachment basically defines the flag as you know it.

Of course none of this is actually has a mechanism of enforcement so you can fly just about anything and just call it the American flag.

I’m not seeing any serious suggestions of that there. Looks more like hypothetical talk.

I actually had a similar thought to that yesterday. Could moderators be classified as employees for the work they do?

However, the Supreme Court has made it clear that the FLSA was not intended “to stamp all persons as employees who without any express or implied compensation agreement might work for their own advantage on the premises of another.”

I think you would have a massive uphill struggle to argue Reddit’s moderators are employees in court. Without that no back pay and no union.

Ah the classic “I’m trans better tell everyone. Wait maybe I’m not. Nope definitely I am better tell everyone again.”

Me typing them out.

“I refuse (voiceover) work that states they’ll take my voice and make an AI model from it,” voice actor Brad Ziffer told CNBC. “The best way to protect myself is to just stay away.”

As you should. There is a big difference between narrating and giving away personality rights.

But the article kind of negates the title.

However, experts say seamlessly replicating the way a human talks with AI is still a ways away. Human beings offer unique intonation, cadence, and emotion when they speak.

Voice artist narration for big title releases isn’t going away anytime soon. And if it does the job is going to be replaced with technical/artistic jobs fine tuning the generated narration.

What I actually see happening in the short term is it becoming profitable to do generative narration of smaller authors and books that would be profitable using traditional voice work.

In time I could see this working it’s way up the budget ladder into larger projects but that’s still a way off.

I don’t fly often but it may be getting better. 🤷‍♀️

Beginning in May 2022, TSA is also updating its screening procedures to better serve transgender, nonbinary, and gender-nonconforming travelers through less invasive screening procedures for passengers who trigger the AIT scanner in a sensitive area. This change will reduce the number of pat downs for TSOs and the travelling public without compromising security, and will be in effect until the gender-neutral AIT screening technology is deployed.

So at least they know at an organizational level they have an issue.

Of course my view is they are a useless organization overall and locked cockpit doors do 99% of their jobs.

Good links. There are more nonmeme communities that are in a better position to answer questions or offer more personalized recommendations that can be linked to as well.

Such as:

!mtf@lemmy.blahaj.zone

!transgender@lemmy.ml

!lgbtq_plus@beehaw.org

I’m sure there are more out there, a lot of community formation is happening right now. I specifically don’t know the tranasc communities But they should be added too.

Two classic sources:

• Steal them from others

• My own anxieties

Some subs went into restricted posting mode and made it so the only post in the past 2 days is that Reddit is killing 3rd-party apps. I’m not sure how you are expecting r/all to actually look. Even if every major subs closed their doors forever, as long as there is any activity on the site r/all will be populated.

Somewhat agree

Have you tried doubling down?

Same here. I can either dwell on how much time I feel I lost or accept that the journey made me who I am today.
