Sync has a biometric lock in its settings. I've not used it.
What a weird article. Makes sweeping conclusions like "women are fine with trans" issues, casually ignoring the ~50% that responded unsure or negatively.
The numbers are generally evenly split positive-to-negative and whilst, yes men are between 5-10% or so more likely to respond negatively, phrasing it in a way where you treat men and women as monoliths isn't very helpful to addressing the goal of trans positivity.
Eh - it depends on the test.
Laboratory tests for pure absorbency makes sense for blood volume.
Functional absorbency is always going to be so much more nuanced as each woman has multiple factors in play. You're better off calibrating pure absorbency first, then carrying those results forward to study and understand functional usage.
Because testing things in laboratories for healthcare requires stringent and rigorous controls. It's a lot easier to standardise animal blood than human blood, and as the comment above highlighted - animal blood is already a waste product, whereas human blood is highly valuable for directly saving lives.
Arguing for less animal usage is a nobler cause, but this is not the fight to pick for it.
4 billion people, affected 5 days a month, for 40 years.
Nah, you're right - not worth the paperwork.
I mean, the ridiculousness of the disparity is highlighted in the article: we have a standardised measure for hot sauce, but not menstrual product absorbency.
Having been guilty of that at least once - you press the button and then realise there is sufficient gap in the traffic that you didn't need the assistance of the lights to cross safely. You cross with each step layering the burden of guilt until you escape line-of-sight of the crossing. Then you can continue in blissful ignorance of the two drivers that just lost 20 seconds of their day and 5p in petrol.
And in guessing the Kyoto Protocol had minimal affect as most countries continued on with the attitude 'so anyway, growth.'
For context, Bungiefan_ak has no fewer than 4 alts that I've seen (all on different instances with the same username)
I mean, this is one of the benefits of the lemmyverse - using the same username across different instances. It's not subversive.
That's not to lend a defence of this guy - just didn't want having Lemmy alts presented as a bad thing.
Makes me a bit suspicious that there is any credibility to the claim. We're going off a supposed screenshot of what looks like a Discord message?
Yup. Very, thanks. The question is will I remember for when I next need it...
Only if you're an EU citizen.
I was just playing around with settings and noticed it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
WHAT?! SPEAK UP BROTHER, I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER ALL THESE HOGS CRANKING!
