@RoughEdgeBarb @Laramaxinecross @sugarGSP Well you said I had no basis discriminating against them, hence my rebuttal.
English
@thedailymeghan @Laramaxinecross @sugarGSP The WPBSA has discriminated against them, as I pointed out in my first comment.
English
@RoughEdgeBarb @Laramaxinecross @sugarGSP I haven't discriminated against them. I have no problem with trans men in the women's category, as they are biological women. If they're exemptions in doping regulations, then great, I'll not stand in your way in pointing out that bio females taking testosterone should be allowed
English
@thedailymeghan @Laramaxinecross @sugarGSP And FWIW doping regulations have a therapeutic use exemption. If you consider a trans man taking T to be a "biological woman" then you have no basis for discriminating against them.

@thedailymeghan @Laramaxinecross @sugarGSP They're banned from snooker now if they take testosterone actually, even though it isn't a sex affected sport and they haven't justified the discrimination. Even in your wacko interpretation of the law it's still unlawful discrimination.
English
@Laramaxinecross @sugarGSP They are biologically female, so they are not banned from female sports.

@Figglewatts That looks smoother than a simple lerp, how are you getting that? How does it handle more spaced out steps?
English
game development is weird because sometimes simple things like climbing steps smoothly takes combined days of work to get working

@ItsJoshTyler I don't pay for any services, I don't see any ads, the only way I "contribute" to X is increasing the MAU which abstractly contributes to the share value of a company that is losing a lot of money. If I were a popular account I might have more value to X but I'm not.

Maybe I’m not “woke” enough, but the moral grandstanding about Harry Potter on here is so ironic. If avoiding projects and platforms that directly fund transphobia is that important to you, you would not be on this app.

@RoughEdgeBarb The point of this entire thread just totally went over your head, didn’t it?

@KindaSortaMaebe People yearn for monopolies that should exist were it not for capitalism, I want all my games in one place

The hate for Epic Games Launcher was manufactured.

What gaming opinion will you defend like this?🚀

> Julie Bindel goes to Iceland

Foucault and Judith Butler have supplanted Jesus Christ” because there are Pride flags out
> speaks to a Bishop’s secretary
> “Jesus stood with the marginalised”

@Saeko_Cut The point you are making is that it's a slippery slope, I checked the slope and it's not slippery so it's fine.
English
@RoughEdgeBarb If you do not understand the point I am making then you have a small mind.

I think we should very strongly oppose machines that can autonomously issue legal violations, especially in an era where machines can generate faked footage of anything.

@jsmacked traffic cams generate revenue. they definitionally can't be a waste of resources. they create more resources

@hikiegg @KindaSortaMaebe Valorant uses an entirely custom forward renderer, If you need to hire a large amount of staff to fix the rendering of an engine that was sold on its ease of use, or disable those features entirely, then it's not a great engine.
English
@KindaSortaMaebe I don’t play it but the switch of Valorant on UE5 seems like it’s way better looking and improved performance with less storage needed.
English
Unreal 5 is a great engine that allows artists to get technical empowering games to be more innovative than ever. bad performance comes from poor planning from the start, and not enough engineering staff, not inherently from the engine.

@The_Bunny_Doll I think the most likely outcome is that they ban HRT for non-binary people who want "partial physical feminisation/masculinisation" based on the way they set up the adolescent review, which will just lead to even more people lying to gatekeeping doctors
English
Had an appointment with my gender service therapist and asked her about this stuff and she tried to reassure me that it might only affect people not currently involved with the NHS or are on the waiting list for treatment, those who are already receiving gender affirming care should be safe as from a medical standpoint it's very dangerous to suddenly withhold care, either way I am still terrified, I hate this country so much :((((

@BannoShaun @AdnanHussainMP US/Israel destroying Iranian oil infrastructure, and Iran destroying US-allied oil infrastructure, will cause long term problems even in best case scenario. A US allied(not democratic) regime in Iran wouldn't be producing any more oil(and producing more oil wouldn't "help world")
English
@AdnanHussainMP Is that not a short term rise tho? If they manage to win this war and bring the Iranians into regime that can help benefit the world there’s chances oil prices could go down long term?
English
Claim they’ll lower fuel prices, yet would have the UK follow Trump and Netanyahu into war in the Middle East that would drive them higher, makes sense?
Politics UK@PolitlcsUK
🚨 WATCH: Nigel Farage and Robert Jenrick change fuel prices in Buxton at a Reform UK petrol station They have pledged to reinstate the 5p fuel duty cut in their first Budget

@MikeBre14267200 @EdwardJDavey No it isn't US citizens already have this
English
@RoughEdgeBarb @EdwardJDavey Oh, and most people are paying their taxes in full to the nation they reside in, demanding they also pay you is not only a human rights issue but it is a clear breach of the sovereignty of other nations.
English
We rightly expect our Armed Forces to protect British citizens abroad.
So it’s right that tax exiles should pay UK tax like the rest of us, whether they’re right-wing political pundits or washed-up footballers.
Politics UK@PolitlcsUK
🚨 WATCH: Ed Davey says British tax exiles in Dubai should now be made to pay tax in the UK "As we protect them, it's only right for tax exiles to start paying taxes to fund our Armed Forces just like the rest of us do"
English
@MikeBre14267200 @EdwardJDavey They are linked, this is a fundamental part of social contract going back to Hobbes and Locke and so on, you give up things for protection. I'm happy to support abandoning these people if they don't want to pay tax, but the reality is that the military is protecting them
English
@RoughEdgeBarb @EdwardJDavey Citizenship and taxation are not linked, you are merely trying to abuse the very concept of citizenship and turn it into government ownership of people for financial gain.
The UAE is protecting those people, UK government nowhere to be seen.
English
@MikeBre14267200 @EdwardJDavey If they are receiving the benefits of citizenship(which including voting) it follows that they should also bear the burdens. Do you have an actual reason why they should be protected without being subject to the same expectations as residents?
English
@RoughEdgeBarb @EdwardJDavey Dubai residents do not live in the UK, just like millions of Brits all over the world. The principle of protection of citizens abroad is not linked to taxation.
