@Kloi I think me too and maybe a lot of guys. Is it something about being thirsty and uncertain that is the drying agent? You want her and yet you are not sure about whether to push the escalation because she doesn't seem quite ready. It leaves you awkward, conflicted and weak looking. Women want you to be confidently, smoothly led to bed, not doubtingly persuaded by some guy who is a heap of self doubt and appears to not even be sure if he does right to desire them.

I think the best Chads can read women very well, back down effortlessly when they see they can't push through smoothly and navigate the situation with an attitude of "It doesn't matter, we are enjoying each other. The next best thing to playing and winning is playing and losing. We will win another day" Lesser specimens like myself have been known to quietly drown in a sea of frustration and self recrimination.

Didn't there used to be a Tech Talk tribe? I couldn't find it in the mobile interface.

Anyway, for Android users: have you noticed autocorrect started performing much WORSE than it did for years prior, in the last 2 weeks or so?

I've been trying to use my phone instead of laptop more lately, and have never wanted to throw the fucking thing into the caldera of an active volcano so many times per hour!

The word suggestions while typing look more like a Reddit post overwriter bot's output than influenced by what gets typed. It regularly changes conjugation and tense after a space character follows. Sometimes even completely substitutes a different word. When editing, it ends up mashing the words together without spaces you damn sure included, or add an extra space that doesn't belong.

I swear I'm not imagining this, it makes my writing look 25 iq points lower if I don't check before hitting send!

@Vermillion-Rx Kloi's perspective is interesting, but I think it's more down to this: once a male goes through puberty, features of the skull develop distinctively male proportions.

Trying to feminize such a face with a uniform layer of foundation and makeup, doesn't alter or hide these basic masculine features, but makes them stand out in an Untranny Valley manner, to coin a punny phrase.

Puberty blockers would result in a legit feminine looking face, but would need to get administered before the subject could legally and ethically decide on such a profound and permanent alteration. Grown people looking to vicariously fulfill their wishes and regrets, are in no position to ethically push this option onto minors.

It's something that medical ethics needs a generation or more still, to track outcomes in the first wave of people who take this path over decades, before it should ever become more generally available.
