I’m on ml and I can see it just fine.

I want to give you a belated “thank you” for writing this up! I had kinda been feeling like I’d reached a dead end with my whole gender exploration adventure, but you have not only inspired me to do a second (longer) trial run using EV instead of EEn (which I have just started), but I’m also gonna go to a local meetup for trans/enby/questioning people later this week. Something about your comment here really helped me get out of the rut I was in. Thanks for all your support!!! ❤️

Re-reading your original question, it should have been pretty obvious in retrospect that I am not really in the target audience. welp, my bad :P

I didn’t get any blood work done unfortunately, since my doctor’s office refuses to do it without a specific request from my GP (and the whole reason I wanted to do a trial run DIY was because I can’t realistically do this kind of stuff the legit way at the moment), so I just went with a dose a bit higher than the dosages I’d seen recommended online for “most” people and figured it was unlikely that that wouldn’t be enough. Since I saw nipple changes almost immediately I assumed that it was doing the trick, but the expected other effects just never came and I stopped when my nipples had become large enough that I was about to start needing a bra to stop them visibly poking through my shirt.

I didn’t really consider that the longer half-life was super relevant to the “startup delay”, most resources I found online seemed to show it nearly reaching the steady state level after only one or two doses. If that was actually the problem that’s a pretty big derp on my part, but I’m already planning to give it another shot once I’m not living at home.

I did estrogen monotherapy for about 2 months earlier this year. Quite frankly, the only changes I noticed was an immediate and significant increase in nipple sensitivity+size, and a reduction of nighttime erections. Other than that I didn’t notice any of the early changes which I had been lead to expect within the first few weeks: no emotional differences, no reduction in skin oiliness, no changes in body temperature, etc.

For what it’s worth, I was taking 1.4ml/week of 40% estradiol enanthate without any antiandrogens, am in my early 20s and have a very low body mass.

Even if the SYN packets were being ignored, the connection would still be unusable if there’s enough incoming traffic for most legitimate packets to get dropped. And as mentioned in other comments, the router in question is a shitty ISP router which can’t be replaced (although I do have a much fancier router with OpenWRT running behind that).

That doesn’t help against a SYN flood.

I spent multiple days getting SYN flooded to the point my router would crash and reboot over and over, and it stopped the moment I set up cloudflare and asked my ISP to change my IP. This was the instance which pushed me over the edge, but there had been smaller attacks lasting a few minutes each for years leading up to this.

It’s the reason I set up cloudflare in the first place, so yeah. I was getting SYN flood-ed to the point that my router would just crash almost immediately, and after rebooting it the attack would resume after a minute or two.

if you can provide me a better way to keep my homelab from getting DDoSed every five minutes then by all means, please share it

Yes, the top-level domain is still just a domain. I’m not aware of any public Internet services which are reachable from a TLD directly, and it’s strongly discouraged by ICANN, but there isn’t any technical limitation preventing e.g. someone at Verisign from setting up example@com.

My sister has this printed on a t-shirt.

Again, that would be TIFF. TIFF images can be encoded either with each line compressed separately or with rectangular tiles compressed separately, and separately compressed blocks can be read and decompressed in parallel. I have some >100GiB TIFFs containing elevation maps for entire countries, and my very old laptop can happily zoom and pan around in them with virtually no delay.

Real or Cake?

There is a reason why TIFF is one of the most popular formats for raster geographic datasets :)

I feel like this could work using a tiny generator attached to the drive’s motorized wheel, but that’s probably too complex to be cost-effective for something like this unfortunately.

Okay, you can’t just drop that bombshell without elaborating. What sort of bug could exist in a program which contains a single return instruction?!?

why did you take a 4chan greentext and reformat it like it’s taken from some kind of corporate slideshow
