But the idea that physical attraction is a social construct is bullshit.
It is, partly. Standards of beauty have varied over historical times. There are things that haven't changed (preferring smooth skin and symmetrical features) and things that have (preferred breast size)
Very true. At one time, a woman we would consider "chubby" today was considered the height of physical charm. Probably as a sign of health at a time when a lot of people were a lot less healthy than today. In men, a pot belly in older men was considered a sign of success. .
It's funny how after so many years, homosexuals are accepted as a built in preference, and not a choice, that certain groups of feminists are pretending now that everything is a choice, because you can if you want, raise a child to be a male or female, and if you want you can take a child born with a penis, which the evil world of cisgender would demand that he be called a boy social construct, and by social molding have him identify as both a female, and a lesbian. A female who identifies as a lesbian can have sex with this lesbian with a penis. and not be sexual, but a true lesbian who has never had sex with a male, and is repulsed by males. In the world ot total social construct, that is completely valid - if not quite sane.
Um, huh? Where did this come from?
Indeed - sounds crazy. But here is the thing. There are people who are raising their children genderless because they believe that gender is a total social construct. This is a typical one. https://www.huffingtonpost.com...
With the concept of society acting as the enforcer of gender identity - who individuals desire to mate with - the concept is that without enforcement, the child will choose any of the huge number of genders as defined by those who insist gender is a social construct.
The keywords are that the child will make a deliberate and conscious choice.
This means that there is no hard wiring, no natural proclivity, that all is a choice. The mind as a completely blank device that can be programmed any way society wants it to be programmed. Sex with goats? If society wants it. Homosexual behavior? If society wants it.
It is obvious that social mores will determine in several aspects the sexual practices of those societies. But in no way shape or form do they make the basic determination. repression, suppression or expression is not what determines gender "choice".
So here we have people who just like fundamentalist homophobes, have decided that who a person wants to engage in sexual activiteis is a choice that that person makes all by themselves, that they think one day "I have come to the decision that I want to have sex with men, so I will train myself to be sexually aroused by men." In both gender as a social construct and religious homophobia, a person can believe the same thing.
Fuggidaboudit! I knew real young who I was attracted to, and what the physical characteristics of women I found exciting. My gay friends also knew early on, even if they were closeted. I think the traits are what we are born with. Some cisgender, some gay, some bisexual, some asexual.
...the tube amp distortion might sound good to some people, but it is still distortion.
I am getting so sick of this "tubes sound good because they add distortion" meme that I'm ready to spit. A GOOD tube amplifier, (single-ended, built with triodes that have very linear specs), sounds better than just about any solid-state amp.
I use gold plated fuses to counteract the inherent deficiencies in solid state amps. Just kidding.
I even like the sound of tube amps. And insist on them for stringed instrumental use. But once we get into the realm of your GOOD tube amplifier, it starts to resemble No True Scotsman territory.
Anyhow - don't spit. Just enjoy the sound you like.
Can't we keep something around and not dilute and destroy its meaning until it just resembles the same as everything else.
Nope. There's a Star Wars Battle of the 97 Genders coming out in a few years, with the non-binary genderqueer ambidrogynous rebels taking on and destroying the BlackHawk Helicopter Hegemony once and for all.
Men and women are not the same. Both genders are "people", but there are interests and motivations that are different between the genderds. That being said, there is no reason to expect a 50/50 distribution of genders in any particular activity.
Remove any active discrimination and let the cards fall where they may. The line of thinking that says that things must be 50/50 or they are unfair is only applied to areas where people might possibly see an advantage. This is unethical and discriminatory... the EXACT opposite of what all this bullshit is about.
Just stop.
Star Wars Sociall Justice Edition is an interesting example of this. Taking a cowboy movie set in space, and turning it into Identity politics in space hasn't really panned out so well. Some Mary Sue's, a feminist archetype admiral, and purposefully killing off Skywalker and Akbar for no good reason, other than what looks like the preparations for a gynocracy ruled Star Wars universe, and it's now a mess.
The plot holes show that social justice trumped the story line.
Now its true that if Disney wanted to have the simultaneous discovery of parthenogenesis and a virus that killed every man in the universe, and we were left with a lesbian paradise, Star Wars - that's their right, sorta.
But Identity politics in a movie universe that didn't really have them before, that men were the biggest customers, and would go to the movies several times, and buy the promotional toys is kind of risky.
Will the new target audience likewise go to the movie several times and spend millions on Rey figurines?
The rapid drop-off in attendance, poor worldwide reception (ya gotta do well in China) and the poor action figure sales speak otherwise, as well as the rotten tomato non-professional reviews, which RT dresses up a lot by discarding the lowest ranked reviews. So the activists are going to have to step up to the plate, and show the world that they know what makes a good sci-fi movie, and spend the money like they mean it.
The practical me asks "What the fuck were they thinking?"
May be they figured that considering what cruise missile was carrying and circumstances under which it would be used, propulsion system was least of everyones problems.
But cruising around the world long enough would have a bit of the results of nuc bombs - at least on living things. Buildings would be intact. Don't need an explodey thing when you have 24/7/365 firehose delivery of radiation out the exhaust.
"Saner minds" and "ICBMs" should never be juxtaposed in a sentence.
But you know what I mean - the combination of people who thought that constant irradiation waas a bad thing, and the ICBM made the full time scrambled nuc bomb plane concept less attractive.
Are we contemplating a National Museum of English Art? French Art? Spanish Art? Chinese Art?
Do you know - there are some Americans who don't believe that there should be any taxpayer funded museums at all? Perhaps you can contact your congressman or woman, and demand that the museums be sold off to the highest bidder, and the money returned to whichever taxpayers the US house of Representatives decides deserves that money.
I would guess that permanent nuclear flight leave you with issues related to internal part heat.
The Atomic airplane is a fascinating bit of early cold war history. They came fairly close to making it work. It was eventually scuttled because the open cycle design irradiated everything in it's path, the radiation inside the plane, while being attenuated by shadow shielding, caused them to consider using older crew who would be expected to die of other causes before radiation caused leukemia took them out, and of course what would happen in the event of a crash. Even landing presented problems, as landing weight would be the same as takeoff weight.
Fortunately saner minds and ICBM's made the A-Plane unnecessary.
Then if you really want to freak out, research SLAM. A reactor powered cruise missile running open cycle at treetop level. You can guess the side effects of that.
The technogeek in me finds this stuff fascinating. The practical me asks "What the fuck were they thinking?"
A fucking ipad on wheels. Top roboting there Softbank.
I truly hope that I don't have to be entertained by a robot to go through the museums.
I like to contemplate the exhibits, and might want to stop at one for a couple minutes, and especially without that ipad on wheels dancing around volunteering for selfies.
All this bullshit YouTube is doing to building towards their demise.

No, warmth is a qualitative descriptor for sound. If you start with an original recording and compress the hell out of it so that it loses all warmth, the original sounds warmer; that warmth is not distortion -- the lack of it in the remastered version is.
Warmth can also be used to describe the distortion that comes frmo tube amplifiers. I remember the jukebox where my mother used to work as a waitress. It had a full and warm sound that I really liked. And the transistorized amplifiers of the time were lacking in that respect. What I didn't know was that the transistor amps were les distorted.
Anyhow, listening to a tube amp gives me a sort of nostalgic feeling, and that's okay. But I do know what the base of that sound is all about. In the end, if a person likes the sound, it's all good.
One thing I never understood about this debate is why do people care that people care? why do people insist on debating it? If they think they hear a difference then can't they just have their vinyl, and you can have your CDs, and I can have my MP3s, and we all just live in harmony?
The nature of humans, especially the male of the species. That yummy competition, where similar things get ranked, with whatever the person likes being just perfect, and seems like the other options don't work at all. But they do.
Look at Ford versus Chevy, Mac versus PC, iPhone versus Android, Tube amp versus Solid State, Vinyl versus CD versus MP3. Coke vs Pepsi.
You're mkaing the flawed assumption that they're mastered the same. The master on the CD will most certainly be compressed to the point that anyone under 30 should be able to hear the distortion, particularly to the high hats.
That compression depends on the type of music you're listening to. What passes for Pop these days hardly matters if it is compressed or not.
If the vinyl is mastered separately, and it generally is, then it will sound a whole hell of a lot warmer because it's not compressed nearly as brutally.
"Warmth" is also distortion. Just the distortion you like. Yeah, I can enjoy listening to a nice tube amp or the occasional vinyl. But not very often as the record is damaged with every play.
Now those tube amps - I loves me some nice hollow state technology now and again. But yeah, it distorts the sound.
Vinyl often sounds warmer because the master recording has heavy clipping, and vinyl smooths it out a lot. Same with valves for amplification, especially with things like overdriven guitars.
Exactly. The vinyl process distortion and the tube amp distortion might sound good to some people, but it is still distortion.
What is hard for you to understand levels of severity? It's fucking explained right there. Are you not in ANY technical field where there's multiple levels of severity? Like holy fuck, that's some basic newbie type questioning. This is a fucking tech site.
Sure there is various levels of severity. Would you bet 20 years of your life that this is not and will not be a problem? You don't ignor vulnerabilities. Plus, your completely dismissive attitude about this makes you a security risk. You know how many of the security incidents happen? People just like you - If you worked for me, and went into that rant, you'd have an appointment with security waiting for you the second you left my office. You are not the genius you think you are.
I've heard your evolutionary ideas most often from lonely men who take their cue from online dating gurus and pickup artists.
I've heard them least often from men with kids.
That doesn't prove anything, but it does suggest to me that it might not be an evolutionarily successful attitude.
Its complicated. And as far as that goes, I'm not remotely lonely, married and with a child - grown now.
This all depends on how far you want to take the idea that and differences between men and women are 100 percent social construct, and not based upon built in physical attraction.
Note these are general traits, and that of course there are outliers.
Some things are social constructs. We've seen that in the workplace that within physical limitations of both sexes, women are capable of doing the same work as men.
But the idea that physical attraction is a social construct is bullshit. It's funny how after so many years, homosexuals are accepted as a built in preference, and not a choice, that certain groups of feminists are pretending now that everything is a choice, because you can if you want, raise a child to be a male or female, and if you want you can take a child born with a penis, which the evil world of cisgender would demand that he be called a boy social construct, and by social molding have him identify as both a female, and a lesbian. A female who identifies as a lesbian can have sex with this lesbian with a penis. and not be sexual, but a true lesbian who has never had sex with a male, and is repulsed by males. In the world ot total social construct, that is completely valid - if not quite sane.
So men in general have been hard wired to a certain body and face, and the same with women, although they have some added inborn traits as well.
This is not an unusual thing in the rest of the animal world, I've yet to see a convincing argument on why humans are totally exempt. An empty slate that can be molded any which way.
Here is an interesting example - young children were given the choice of I guess what you would call cis gendered toys. Fluffy and soft toys versus wheeled toys. Infant interest versus rough and tumble toys.
The female children were largely interested in soft and fluffy and infant interest toys, while the male children were more interested in wheeled devices and toys they could engage in rough and tumble activities with.
You might say "This is merely the example of cis gendered enforcement of proclivities by humans upon their offspring. This proves our thesis."
I'm attracted to exactly what I'm attracted to. Tall slender women with long hair, long legs, and small to medium bosom, big eyes and pretty face. No one told me this was what I was attracted to. As early as I noticed young ladies I noticed that was my preference. Still is, and ummm, I can sorta still tell that - yaknow?

Otherwise, you hear "We'll work on it after all of the other problems are fixed." Or something. Since than never happens, it means "we'll ignore it."
It also tells me that there are a whole lot of other really critical problems going on that require immediate and intensive work on successful ongoing exploits that are sucking up all of our time.
Either that or "we're just going to ignore it." Take your pick.

If you find an USB stick somewhere - aren't you curious about the content?
I used to keep a sacrificial Windows machine around for the very purpose of plugging in suspect CDs and thumb drives.
Pop 'em in, and see what happens.
A lot of people don't realize how many of us have been exploited.
No, because some of us are aware of USB kill sticks.
Some people are aware, some people are not. I've personally seen computers owned by geek sticks handed out at trade shows. Weird that Windows fans would stand in defense of a big problem by re-defining it as no problem.
