It's because more information is encoded on the X chromosome then the Y, having two copies of the X chromosome makes it less likely for a mutation in that chromosome to cause cancer because there's another non-defective copy to potentially diminish the mutation's effect.

However stupid shit like that probably sways the needle as well.

In other news, visibility bias has been classified as communist propaganda. Anyone who says this isn't representative of an actual increase in the incidence rate is a communist and can safely be ignored.

I can't believe buying chickens actually saved me money, I just did it because I wanted chickens. I expected to pay more per egg (considering food and litter) because I don't have economies of scale like the large producers do.

We need to start using this game as a unit to measure mismanagement.

I drove past a car that had its headlights flickering about 15 times every second last year. No clue if it was intentional but it was distracting as all hell. (and probably dangerous to epileptic people)

I bought Sea of Thieves about 5 years ago. Recently, they added kernal-level anticheat (which does precisely fuck-all to actually stop cheating). While that is annoying, I'm not particularly worried because the studio that makes that game is owned by Microsoft, and like all Microsoft products, it was banished to my windows partition with the rest of the spyware.

The virtual machine I installed windows on to play games with kernel-level anticheat and other such spyware apparently isn't compatible with windows 11. That's a positive for 2 reasons, which are:

  1. It can't run Windows 11, so no risk of a forced upgrade
  2. Windows won't constantly harass me to upgrade.

10/10 experience, would not give give Windows access to bare metal again.

An ancient internet relic from days gone by. Next time I have access to a color printer, I'm putting this on my shelf.

My high school used to serve pineapple, ham, and jalapeno pizza. It tasted pretty good.

I've finally banished Windows to a virtual machine, and am gearing up to fistfight Easy: Anti-cheat Rootkit AKA Fucking piece of shit that does precisely fuck-all to stop cheating despite having access to kernel space in order to get Sea of Thieves working on my virtual machine.

I haven't eaten at a Mcdonalds since I was in elementary school because my entire family agrees that their food sucks.

Yeah, I read about that yesterday and I have none of the documents listed as a valid form of ID. If this was passed, I wouldn't be able to vote.

My parents didn't get me a phone until after they forgot to pick me up from school and I was left there for three hours. And even then it was a fliphone.
