We did it Reddit!
But wait, really? It does not sound like a real victory here. Lots of quality mods retired, people left for Lemmy, and F--K SPEZ written all over the r/place?
Is that victory?
My school strictly prohibits vehicle use, and considers all violations a strong offense that is on a three-strikes out rule.
Yes, it includes e-scooters and swan boats.
Yes, it includes whether you are in uniform or not.
Yes, it includes whether you are in school or not.
Yes, even if you are licensed.
Yes, it is enforceable anywhere.
The rule is obnoxiously blanket.
They let the intern access the production db. The company is one of the biggest hosting and internet service companies in the country. The db was SQL but had no primary key.
I was the intern. I normalized it to 3NF as part of my internship project.
As a person from a country that has near zero knowledge, awareness, and enthusiasm for American Football, I agree.
It is illegal but so far nobody wants to raise an issue with it because it's a school that has a lot of govt officials, diplomats, expats, and businessmen sending their kids there. No one wants to risk stinking their own reputation by raising an issue.
As for "how", apparently if someone accidentally snaps a picture of those kids riding things they shouldn't be, anytime, and a school disciplinary officer sees it, anywhere, he can give out the warning. Has done so a few times actually.
The rationale of the rule is that vehicle operation is something not befitting the image of a student, especially a student at this (supposedly) prestigious school.
Suffice to say the damn rule made me apprehensive of riding in a friend's car for a while, and of the idea of getting my own license when I became of age.
When I decided to ask the school about the apprppriateness and legality of the rule (as an alumnus), they said "we are disappointed in you. You were a great student. We did not expect you to become someone who tries to force us to change our ways of life." That said, unless you grow up to become a nationalist or a right-winger, you are a disappointment to them, so maybe even without this vehicle use thing I'm still a disppointment to them anyway.
This story sounds absurd but yes it is supposed to be this absurd.
I still pass by this school many times as it's on my way to work. I wish I could tell those kids and new parents who might not be aware of "the system" something they should know ...
Yes
There's also a guy who says that Lemmy was created by a communist.
Well, this time "at least it's not spez" works even if it's a fallacy.
Traditionally chess has been a men's game, and female adoption is limited. The creation of an exclusive women's division is to generate a pathway to success for women, even if it's known to have a lower ceiling compared to men. Basically, it is to foster the game in females.
I learned a lot, but one thing: use a coconut for its intended purpose only.
You can unilaterally create another status code. What do you create?
I think we should also have a review on non-functional (decorative) LEDs on the gadgets we buy, especially those cheap chargers that decide to light up the whole room with blue.
It's Cartmanland and you can't come!
I'm still waiting for our legend rimjob_steve.
My take for the fediverse would include:
Again, downvote not for disagreement but for content that clearly does not contribute to the discussion. Reason should not be given, as downvoting should be done sparingly and should not require a reason (for most sane human beings).
Be aware when interacting cross-instances. Culture, norms, and rules may differ.
Unless the instance operator is fine with it, limit your self-content sharing and self-promotion.
Remember that most of the fediverse instances are independent and they owe you nothing. The instance operator's decisions are final.
Do not squat names on multiple servers unless it's what you generally have been using.
Cats are still the supreme beings. The fediverse resides on the Internet (assuming that it runs on TCP/IP), so the cat supremacy rule applies.
RimWorld.
Yes, I am a degenerate.
But the beans are not fucking. I am now fucking disappointed.
Do you like it in this position, Disappointed?
As a man I appreciate your concerns. However, in my country the problem is much larger on the women's side as female professionals are struggling for their rights to wear trousers in professional settings. The recent progress? The lawyers just got allowed to wear pants instead of skirts only.
Why the fuck is this something that must be permitted in the first place? My rights to wear a kilt can wait until women can wear pants.
I'm from Thailand. We have a term called เกมหมา (dog game) which means a shitty game that gets you raging. The list varies from person to person but every list so far includes Dota 2 and League of Legends (which I have personally played). Other honorable mentions include:
Touchy issue.
I come from a country with no gun rights, at least not for civilians.
A spare magazine is not a restricted article. Anyone can buy or make. If the matter is 10 rounds, well, you can have as many mags as you want.
Or, have a big mag with fillers in it for inspection. When you step outside the police or whatever office, you just take those fillers out.
The doctor has diagnosed your problem. You should lower the screen frequency as you complained that it Hertz a lot.
In Lemmy, karma is not important.
Alignment, however, is paramount.
Mine seems to be chaotic ADHD asshole. Wait, is this even a proper alignment?!
The image contains my language but I don't understand anything. Interesting.
He could just have bought that video website and call it X Videos.
Five assholes, four idiots, and then there's me.
Keep doing the same damn show over and over, the definition of insanity.
Might refer to more games than one, but just let it be.
Because anyway, you eventually lose your humanity.
Are you sure about this picture? I'm sure that instead of nice cool looking ships most I make are just flying bricks or dicks.
Errrmmm, disks, I mean disks.
NO FREE SLOTS IN SUIT INVENTORY
Many subs seem to have lost most of their activity.
Maybe the people who would leave have already left?
Unfortunately I'm not in the business of working for them. They are mostly govt sites in my country and we simply have to work with them sometimes. Their web devs are underpaid general workers who know a bit of Joomla but added this and that shit to the point that it works only on Chrome.
That would be a big plus though.
It's said that when Jesus comes back, you get to go to heaven if you paid for it.
In Thailand, a university provides a four-year standard higher education. A college is either:
In our language, if you are going to take a four-year higher ed program, you always say university not college.
Yes Yes Yes NO
No homo
Yes homies
Good. At my work there is another term for PQI. I can use this one nicely.
It's still criminal in my country, which means even if RWS does not complain, the ISP can still complain and the police will still arrest.
The law is incredibly stupid at times.

As the rule is blanket, you can ride one maybe in your school uniform but on a Saturday (maybe after you're done with cram school -- some crams ask you to wear your uniform because it's how they improve their reputation by recording live sessions with students from many good schools). If that happens and the disciplinary officer knows, you're given a strike.
Clusterfuck is happening!
In my country all the influencers are announcing the same things using the same template. I wonder if it's a subsidized or monetized shill.
