You can just ask to be pegged, many women are happy to do it nowadays.

"most" is the keyword here.

Not necessarily. A car by itself does not have a big carbon footprint at all, the problem with cars is that basically everyone has one, uses it for everything, and gets a new one every X years.

I drive a small car that I own since 2008, at that point it was already used, and it has 85000 km on it. If everyone of my age and up did that and drove so little, we'd have like 20-100 times less carbon footprint from cars.

It wouldn't even make sense for me to upgrade to an electric car. Yes, it'd use less and greener fuel, but the amount of carbon it'd cost to produce probably wouldn't "break even" until soooo many years in the future, maybe even after I die, at which point it'd even be a bad investment, carbon-wise.

So, like almost anything, it depends.

People always like to think of themselves that they aren't judgy and totally inclusive and tolerant. But it's a natural human behavior to judge others and make it known. Most people think of themselves and say they don't judge, but in the background, subconsciously, still do it.

So your doubt is probably justified. You have to get the real answer from how your friends actually behave, not from what they think or say.

Oh, I know that. Doesn't change my statement though, what I said is what's happening; how to handle it, I didn't really want to go into.

But yes, the solution is to not give a fuck, like you say. But that's only the second best solution, the first one is for that not to be necessary in the first place.

I mean, if you simply want your code to be available somewhere so that you can access it from anywhere/have a backup, you can just not use any "service" at all. Just make a bare git repo on your server and expose it via ssh.

Only if you really need the collaboration features should you be using these kind of services, otherwise you just don't really need them. (I would use Forgejo from Codeberg.)

Dancing with trusted people, yes. But in many/most places, how you dance is subject to social stigma, which is much much worse than any benefit of dancing.

And if you only know the stigma-attached dancing, then it poisons "healthy" dance for you, because humans think of the bad thing first.

But if you use this app, you would be using BT, so turn it on...
