I don't think I really need to explain much, their admins are transphobic. stalin-smokin

Snowe, an admin, complained about a transgender person being offended over being misgendered. Ategon made an apology post but keeps snowe on, no public apologies from snowe to the transgender people affected.

Textbook very-smart

note: conversation about Ategon's use of the word triggered edited out, might be misunderstanding, need clarified

    I'm struggling with this notion of something being hard to grasp. I don't think that's an intrinsic property of the concept itself so much as environmentally determined; they don't need to know what a directory is, so they don't ever learn it, and when it comes up in a classroom, it's so removed from their daily experiences that some of them never seem to grasp it.

    I dunno, it's a dialectic a guess.

      yeah I agree. My main gripe is that instead of one environment that everyone uses for computers, bazingas make this weird caste system where they interact through computers in an actually robust environment, and make the masses interact through a dumbed down interface that can't do anything. The justification is usually some dumb aphorism about "the user being dumb" which is just ego stroking BS.
