For the record I do support self-id, the current process for GRC is far too intrusive and over medicallised and it should be reformed. My main concern is the binary (sic) nature of the debate has pushed everything to extremes with most people in the middle too scared to say anything lest they say the &#34;wrong&#34; thing. That is not the context I want legislation to be formed in - that is likely to exacerbate existing harms. 2025-04-20T15:50:52Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrcaq2kfrsvgzpu5sknk4cvjdw2gfunhdtf0g6kmyz5fnqy84wcdszyqavp52akvx5lnx9v3qnnx6jnww2dfdm9tmfj26dfp5japrxez2txq3ge3y In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs8jgutlhjrf6kk2neq3sw8jysmh92av07tscp9fhtq9qtr2u5dkzg5387at'>nevent1q…87at</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>even in the ruling the justices were clear that a trans identity was a protected characteristic. Discrimination is still wrong. Everyone has a right to access healthcare. I agree the arguments about bathrooms are problematic because it becomes a &#34;passing&#34; test which doesn&#39;t help anything. The difficulty I find is people can acknowledge that biology is complex and varied but social constructs like the law are obvious and immune to nuance. 2025-04-20T11:50:30Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsgzjphxurmqhavn8fudxxtqzrkap6u4r9v4u6a7vz908jst4a430czyqavp52akvx5lnx9v3qnnx6jnww2dfdm9tmfj26dfp5japrxez2txuhj6ft In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszmgn2usa2tjr7fsmgvn98cspes6l80jgn6grxrq8f3xpgaepqzwq4p5kvl'>nevent1q…5kvl</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I&#39;m not trying to define anything or making up cases.

The legal ruling may give some temporary clarity on legislation that wasn&#39;t clear in its framing but it certainly shouldn&#39;t be the end point. Future legislation needs to be clearer in its definitions and exemptions. There is always going to be a need to balance the rights of different groups with each other. 2025-04-20T07:54:44Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs874ysxl0jh8l7dv4zah0xftww7pdctsm6hr6xcu8t2uenaszmgwszyqavp52akvx5lnx9v3qnnx6jnww2dfdm9tmfj26dfp5japrxez2txdlz7s3 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs94ujsf5gnl25tcdh8g58vt4hy7vkykndtyn5hqxwjkzse66exahsjzf9mh'>nevent1q…f9mh</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It seems I was premature, this popped up in my feed this morning: <a href="https://developer.apple.com/documentation/virtualization/accelerating_the_performance_of_rosetta">https://developer.apple.com/documentation/virtualization/accelerating_the_performance_of_rosetta</a><br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1g6y83jgazvwv7dyjaxdhujq7sg5walvn0j273z5r2v8rwdh32pdqrajrjv" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>erincandescent 💜</span> (<span class="italic">npub1g6y…jrjv</span>)</a></span> 2024-11-07T07:15:44Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsz62wkenc5rj4yn0h96xvpkg732nk43llmapnp9467gl95yelthxszyqavp52akvx5lnx9v3qnnx6jnww2dfdm9tmfj26dfp5japrxez2txfpu3gy In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9teez4tmgzfq2sve5r800u3kqszdacrn0jw5jlxsjkgkvc64kclqfh9k57'>nevent1q…9k57</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>that was certainly one argument advanced but the main reason was it was an undocumented IMPDEF register with unknown semantics.

But we don&#39;t know that with the silicon feature alone the TSO mode meets the x86 memory model strength which is what I thought people wanted it for. Reading the thread back there looked like support for a global kernel config (so KVM doesn&#39;t need to mess with IMPDEF regs) but the likely result is well written aarch64 code running slower than it otherwise would. 2024-11-04T12:12:18Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsvjzht06z5c7eer9ljhlcf29phcyzuwrcd9hgjnhl85ulu54zwp8qzyqavp52akvx5lnx9v3qnnx6jnww2dfdm9tmfj26dfp5japrxez2tx42gndr In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv2v096nyrdpnvy7ea0vl3mvaehqgzmrx2gek7a6ehp2525mj4gqc4vg5g9'>nevent1q…g5g9</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I think the key is &#34;when Rosetta is in use&#34;.
