This makes sense, from both a manpower and long term stance.

First, Colorado is going to survive climate change much better than Alabama will. Not having to do PT at 2am because that's the only time it's cool enough is kinda nice.

Second, since Alabama keeps rejecting and making things illegal that the majority of Americans want (e.g. Abortion, porn), moving there doesn't make sense for the military. When you have to ship people to other states for medical care, it's better to just build in other states in the first place.

I don't think so. You can put your own money into running a political campaign.

However, the IMPLICATION that he uses campaign donations for his legal defense is there. And stupid MAGA donors will believe that's how their money could be spent and that it's OK.

I expect they had some or mostly legitimate clients. Really hard to hide a drug distribution network in the open without legitimate traffic to hide in.

You gotta link, brah?

Community can't grow if you don't tell people where to go.

... feel that much of the anger from our recent decision around the downstream sources comes from either those who do not want to pay for the time, effort and resources going into RHEL or those who want to repackage it for their own profit. This demand for RHEL code is disingenuous.

Then remove all open source code from your code base. I don't mean some, I mean all. Let's see whose code you're repackaging for your own profit.

Purebred mutt. 100% good boy.

Short term? You probably have some leverage if the upkeep of the stuff is in your rent contract. Try to report them someplace? Idk.

Long term? Form a tenant union and vote for pro-tenant policies, e.g., rent control policies, owner transparency laws, limitations on the number/length of time empty properties can sit, etc. The only way to fight big power is with more-equal power.

There have been some news pieces put out, but most importantly

... the Physicians Committee (PCRM) said records it obtained for the 23 monkeys used in the experiments reflect a “pattern of extreme suffering and staff negligence.” The committee said that the letter to the USDA is based on nearly 600 pages of what it calls “disturbing” documents released after the committee filed an initial public records lawsuit in 2021.

Now, CNN did link to Nueralink's site, but not to PCRM. That, to me, says a lot about who you they're supporting.

If you want to read PCRMs report, it's here. Because reading the sources is always a good idea.

That's probably better answered in a forum where you are more likely to have Iraqis and probably should be asked in Arabic.

The dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed.

Why do I feel like some has gotten lost over the years and we're just gonna "find" it if we ever get into another world war? Or we got rid of the weapons, but it was juuuust long enough to make sure we stored the info on how to make them?

Don't get me wrong, I'm super happy if we did get rid of them, I'm just skeptical.

For right now, I believe there is no way to move a user account so you will need to create a new one. Can be the same name, tho!

I believe there is a feature in the works to be able to move accounts between instances but I am unsure of where in the development pipeline it is.

It's all a way for the CCP to gain power over other countries. "Oh, you're using OUR infrastructure, you need to do X thing that's bad for you or we will turn it off/fuck you over with it".

The CCP cannot be trusted.

That was not my experience. The classes I was required to take were technical in nature. While I was required to take electives, these could be pretty much anything from computer science to English to foreign policy. The only power dynamics I studied were between nation states.

Don't know why this is getting down voted. Seems like some good examples of why Russia and it's troops are bastards, to Ukraine and their own people.

I mean, it does but they weren't reporting that particular spyware

Yeah, Lemmy being in a very "alpha" state makes some of the things a user wants to do difficult.

Practically same story here. Pixel 7 Pro here, also running Graphene. Switched off my trusty Note9 only because graphene only supports Pixels.

At what point do people start protesting?

Also, in what world is 'modify' not an equivalent word to 'transform'? The literal DEFINITION is "verb. ['ˈmɑːdəˌfaɪ'] cause to change; make different; cause a transformation."

Its got a team doing active updates, too. Been playing for a couple of years now and its only gotten better.

Not really - it only matters if the instance where you have your account (e.g. lemmy.world, in your case) is not federated with another instance (e.g., beehaw.org).

As long as your instances are federated, you'll be able to see everything on the other instance and vice versa.

There are weird states, such as instance A being federated to instance B but B not being federated to A. This means that users on A can see, comment, and (potentially? I think?) create posts for communities on B but no other instance (B, C, or otherwise) can see those comments/posts.

Probably not. But remember that ~4% of all death row inmates are innocent, so it may be that he didn't kill anyone.

Also, shouldn't the state be better than a murderer? Shouldn't the mere fact that we believe we, as a society, are civilized mandate allowing a death row inmate respect before they die?

I'm not religious, so I don't think praying and final words will do anything. But it won't harm anyone, and if it makes him more comfortable as he goes out, especially in light of the likelihood he didn't that to his victim, I'm not against it.

They called it like "alpha+" or something. But yeah, I think I've only had a couple of bugs over the two+ years I've been playing. I've had more bugs in fully released AAA titles.

Yeah, i've only recently started watching some 8v8's but there is so much to keep track of

Lol somebody else replied above with this, but I figured you should definitely see it too: An infographic explaining how Lemmy is like Reddit, but with different communities on different servers, users can use one account to access all of lemmy, and how Mastodon is similar because it uses the same underlying framework

I pay the $20 a year for full access to the other like 4 models, mostly because I want the programmer to be able to eat so they can keep putting the app out.

Definitely scratches the itch my friends and Ihadd

It really is, the team has done such a good job on it

You could probably try building it on Mac, but YRMV.

I have not tried modding it, so I have no clue. Might ask in the discord! Its super active, I'm just a lone guy who likes to play.

I am not one of the programmers, so I don't know, but I hope so!

My mess up. I didn't add YTD. So for us right now, pretty much nothing.

But look at where you got the numbers from.

Total CBP Enforcement Actions

Numbers below reflect Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 - FY 2024.

Fiscal Year 2024 runs October 1, 2023 - September 30, 2024.

Totally fair! Same engine, so they're both very similar. I just found the community around BAR to be better and the updates a little faster and more consistent.

FY2024YTD is from October 1, 2023 to now, so that doesn't mean 7 days, it's more like 3 months.

EDIT: Added YTD because I derped.

I've only ever beat those modes with friends. Being able to eco the hell out of em and then switch damage types a ton was the only way we found. I'm also not the person to ask - i am definitely not the best at the game, i just enjoy it a ton.

Not really. After working with CentOS (RIP) for a half decade, that Firefox version was so out of date I was practically in diapers when it came out. Getting the latest version of Firefox was such a pain that my org didn't bother even if it would have given us some niceties.

LTS and other "enterprise" distros don't push the latest version precisely because of dependencies.

That is so much more elegant than I put it lol thank you!

Why would they spell out that sort of requirement? You are assuming they are operating in the open, in good faith.

They have a history of doing this sort of thing.

I don't think the IMF or anybody should be screwing over borrowers but at least it's in the open where you and I, the concerned public, can do something.
