Here's the list of Intel and AMD processors NOT supported in 11. My Celeron N2840 is not supported. https://allthings.how/list-of-all-intel-and-amd-processors-not-supported-by-windows-11/

Yeah, the biggest liars in the world are fisherman. Oneupmanship is alive and well amongst UK anglers.

Distilling fermented material for drinking carries a real risk of methanol poisoning if you aren't aware of how to deal with it. Make sure you familiarise yourself on the process of removal if you intend to consume your efforts. To could start you could learn about evaporation temperatures for liquids.

That will probably have more teething problems than the usual major update. I myself will wait at least six months for issues to be fixed and consolidated in the first major update for windows 11. Curiosity wins sometimes though...

OK, list the quantitative physiological parameters of each sex. That means the measurable elements of what encompasses and defines what each sex is. I think that gets to the heart of whether sex, as you seem to think it is, is compactly definable.

You better archivally store your dvd players as well because in a decade, probably, they will start to take a back seat to streaming films. It'll go the way of my thousands of pounds of chemical photography gear that lives in my attic.

It's not a sharp dichotomy. It's not male and female, it's a continuum: maleness to femaleness and vice versa. In the world of science, 'commonsense' is what it tries to avoid and is not a defence... it's a subjective position.

Did you read my link. Nobody has ever consciously misrepresented their gender in high-level sport at the time of writing.

Sorry, I was being a bit flippant. Just had coffee with a friend and, mentioning this subject to him, he has fixed assumptions about gender; one is born with it and your genitals tell you what you are. He is not scientifically-minded in anyway.

What we going to do when disabled athletes have bionic limbs and they start thrashing the able-bodied.... reverse discrimination protests on the horizon? :D Rules of this nature can only ever be arbitrary.

This paper on Intersex and the Olympics, I think, illuminates the difficulties with this subject, and these people are naturally in the grey zone gender-wise.

That's ok.

I thought we were discussing pathways to accommodating rather than banning.

I see a parallel here with classifying levels and types of disabilities in sport and levelling the field. I'm not aware there is the same level of actual controversy though, as in Paralympics, for example.

Maybe language is changing and we just aren't keeping up.

TBH, it comes across like a bot has put it together. I'm not saying it is, but it's difficult/impossible to make sense of it in a holistic way. Unless I'm being dense...

I have no anti-gay or transgender agenda. I'm quite ok with them. It shouldn't matter in amateur situations but if a transgender youth is pro standard as an adult, then there will likely be issues, in terms of consistency from school level to pro/international.

But it only takes one to upset the apple cart. Let's say Usain Bolt has had his bits snipped and tucked and is now 'Lily Bolt'. It's not likely, but what what do we do, turn a blind eye? Will the reassignment weaken Bolt in a way that is fair?. You can't say it doesn't matter and is too rare because Lily Bolt would likely be in the record books... as the fastest human, let alone woman. At the highest levels, where fractions of a second matter, it would seem to me to be consequential. I don't know the solution.

Asking for a citation or or evidence is not being hostile.

The incidence of collision of matter may be stochastic, but their behaviour when they react is not.

Given sufficient time, I think, the probability of life tended towards certainty. The ingredients were there.

Many/most people didn't/don't understand that the point of masks is to inhibit widespread diffusion of breathe spray. Even now, I hear people say they aren't bothered about catching it, when in fact the issue is them spreading it by not wearing a mask. The science of that is sound.

He's probably read about Galileo...

@PeterBushMan. Don't use the registry cleaner. app in it It can cause problems by erroneously removing registry keys that are still needed.

I wonder if they did them in the dessicated state as well as hydrated state? Maybe they can survive greater extremes in the dessicated state.
