Yeah I don’t think teens are particularly pro-Palestine or anti-Israel.

Teens throughout history have just been anti-war and anti-killing-children.

Wait until you learn about the government. To get your birth or marriage certificate, my county requires that you go to a totally shady URL of a private company that actually is in the business of printing those and shipping them, for a fee of course. Oh and enter your SSN and ID please, without knowing if there’s any security standards they follow.

Am I the only one spooked that the government would not keep those records itself??? And ask a private entity that returns almost nothing if googled by name?!?

That’s why you don’t write a virus for Linux…

Having worked at quite a few startups that grew to LTT’s size, there are basically two kinds of CEO/COO; those who want to drive the culture, and those who don’t believe in corporate culture.

I feel Linus is of the second brand, and I’ve seen it enough to know that culture emerging in those conditions get out of control and becomes almost impossible to rectify.

Good luck to LMG, but the top is where culture starts.

“We tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas!”

We need UBI, like, 5 centuries ago.

Hot take: people who don’t like code reviews have never been part of a good code review culture.

Do they not have children?

It’s even funnier when considering they could suggest climate denying policies and still don’t.

They have no platform. Literally. Not even a regressive one.

Dan Simmons: We’re headed for some bleak imperialism nonsense but humanity’s salvation will come from serving AIs we haven’t discovered yet.

Unpopular opinion? Mastodon is a better Twitter than Lemmy is a better Reddit.

So many duplicated communities in Lemmy makes managing subscription impossible.

That’s why it’s a spectrum… we’re all on it, but some are higher than others.

Also having to manually bring the pigeon back to the launching site, because pigeons only work one way.

The study acknowledges that piracy is a way to play, but it isn’t legal. Basically we need an equivalent of the Library of Congress for video games, which is a reasonable request and conclusion. There is no way to play without ripping your own cartridges, and even that is still legally gray. See https://youtu.be/yj9Gk84jRiE

You can do SSH tunneling over DNS, so everything is possible.

It’s closer to how you (as a person) know things than, say, how a database know things.

I still remember my childhood home phone number. You could ask me to forget it a million times I wouldn’t be able to. It’s useless information today. I just can’t stop remembering it.

It would save money. On average citizens would pay less than they do right now.

Americans don’t vote with their brain, they vote with their limbic system.

Yes, that’s in the US where shady things are done like this a lot. Having lived in diffeeent countries abroad this doesn’t happen anywhere else as far as I can tell.

M’minem! /tips fedora
