Even Apple has forgotten about this it seems. There are various places in the UI where this change is not respected, e.g. Stage Manager.

Oversight. Frameworks tend to make it easy to make an API endpoint by casting your model to JSON or something, but it's easy to forget you need to make specific fields hidden.

The US is hardly the only country where this is the case and locking down your phone is almost entirely pointless (see xkcd #538).

If you're concerned about having it searched, don't bring your primary phone. Go to a phone shop, buy an old phone, put your SIM card in it, and use that instead.

It's not a forced binary. There are no in-between gametes. There are large gametes (eggs) and small gametes (sperm).

The law and government doesn't get to decide this, as you say, it just is. How the law reacts to the scientific fact of the sex binary is a different matter.

We've been able to observe that there are two sexes since time immemorial based on secondary sex characteristics. There is a very strong correlation between these characteristics and gametes produced. This isn't what I or anyone else has decided nor is it based on religion or culture.

A less succinct way of phrasing it would be something like: which gametes are produced, were produced, or should have been produced.

There are messy edge cases. Not all people have 8 fingers and two thumbs, but we don't say digit count is on a spectrum because some people are born with more or less, or that some people have had digits amputated.

The vast, vast majority of people are not messy edge cases. And some of them find language like "pregnant people" or "people with protates" awkward and vaguely dehumanising as opposed to the more understandable and specific terms: "women" and "men".

Sex is defined by which gametes are produced, not chromosomes.

This is such a myopic view. The average smartphone user may not immediately understand why increasingly locked down and user hostile devices are bad, but it does not negate the fact they are.

WordPress 3.7, which introduced automatic updates, received security backports all the way to 3.7.41. From 2013 to 2022. 4.1 and above are all still receiving them.

Except for curl, which now has more users familar with it than say wget or aria2.

Sadly Apple picked neither option. 3rd party apps cannot meaningfully interact with Spaces for example, even basic things like moving windows between spaces or adjusting the animation speed so it's not nauseating on ultrawides.
