There are two and only two genders.
Okay, then there are two and only two biological genders.
Gender is determined solely by biology.
Okay, it’s mostly determined by biology, right?
Please tell me it’s determined by DNA.
Gender can be reliably determined through visual means. After all, no man would ever wear a burka.
Once gender is set, it never changes.
Even if the gender can change, it will only change from the one value to the other value.
Only one gender can be “active” at the same time.
We’re tracking gender now, so we’ve always tracked it.

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

	# This script uses only zsh builtins so its fast, there's no needless
