Satire is no excuse for landphobia, you're still putting out problematic content that could be taken out of context and weaponized to trigger Persons of Land. Delete this

Scott added he would say to historians questioning the accuracy of his storytelling:

“Were you there? Oh you weren’t there. Then how do you know?”

Because the people who were there wrote it down, and now we can read it. Scott's line of reasoning is inherently inconsistent because if followed it would mean we have to evidence of Napoleon Bonaparte existing in the first place. Boy is Ridley Scott going to feel dumb when he realizes he made a biopic of a mythical character combined from the real stories of several French generals after the revolution—if there even was a French Revolution, I mean, we weren't there.

Is there anything more embarrassing than people who think they know better than historians and reject the entire discipline of historiography? It's like being anti-vax but extended to everything you don't personally see.

Simpsons called it:

Say "go fuck yourself lul" into the mirror to save yourself some time.

This reads like one of those pious hip-hop memes that compares Nas against Soulja Boy, but with country music it's actually accurate.

Do you do literally anything besides endless serial shitposting about how much you hate Joe Biden? It's incessant. Get a grip, fucking weirdo.

Given the number of times I've seen cops on police forums and r/protectandserve use terms like "bikefags", I think it's just the typical cop disgust of anything they perceive to be weak or effeminate.

In his veto message, Newsom cites concern about creating a costly precedent by adding benefits to the state’s Affordable Care Act insurance exchange, known as Covered California. A legislative analysis estimates the added cost at about $11 million.

In 2019 a similar bill passed unanimously and was sent to Newsom. At the time, [...] Newsom asked [the bill author] to rescind the bill with a promise to create a budget fix. That “fix” came in the form of the Hearing Aid Coverage for Children Program. The program, which received $16 million its first year, distributed hearing aids to 39 children

"$11 million actually going to children is completely unacceptable, but $16 million going through my sketchy slush fund is A-OK"

Teddy Roosevelt's ghost, come back and bust this trust.

This will keep happening till we legislate financial and criminal liability for data breaches. As it is, the losses from this are the cost of doing business and probably cost 23andMe less than better security would have.

As a token of appreciation for this achievement, I'll help equitably redistribute wealth by doubling gold for anyone who wants. Us workers have to show solidarity! I know an unpatched secret method you can use that only works in level 20 wilderness, so bring your entire cash stack to save time. FYI, for the exploit to work your prayer points to have to be 0, you can't have anything equipped, and you can't have anything besides gp or plat tokens in your inventory.

If Lenovo's multiple rootkit fiascos are anything to go by for Chinese-corporation-designed electronics, yes.

That is also a faux pas in the United States, it's overly formal and the preferred vernacular is "GET ON THE GROUND, BOY! STOP RESISTING!"

Off Lemmy I've already been assured by several dickhead accelerationists that this is actually bad, because it's against the rules to successfully progress a liberal democracy when the One Right Way to effect change is revolution only. They'd rather people suffer more if it meant an end to capitalism, revolting "ends justify the means" mentality.

For one thing, being gay is not something to be ashamed of.

The Basque language, also known as Euskara, is a language isolate and the last remaining language descended from pre-Indo-European roots after all the others were displaced during the Bronze Age. Though it borrows a lot of vocabulary from other languages now, its roots predate both Romance and Celtic languages.

My cat will run from the kitchen to throw up on the carpet right beside it, then go back and flop on the floor beside his dish and keep eating like a drunk middle aged man.

I did the same thing with my parents, mostly because they'd just say "quarter after" but would never say any number. If you made a word cloud of everything I've ever said in my life, "after what" would be gigantic in the center with every other word tiny around the edges.

Chromium is a dead end, I use Firefox because it respects my privacy but also because it works better.

Lies about what this is created for:

  • monitoring customer responses
  • scanning for ‘distressed’ women in danger

Comprehensive list of all things this is created for:

  • ads
  • demoralization
  • identifying, stalking, and punishing malcontents
  • stalking prospective rape victims

I got fined by the city for violating the ordinance against having my trash bin sitting in the street. THANKS SLEEPY JOE!

In case you weren't aware, the President isn't allowed to draft and ratify his own legislation.

Inb4 the totally-not-shills arrive to add "No no no fellow poors! Voting changes nothing, do you know what I be saying, my dog? You should not even try to vote, surely it will not make a difference. Working within the "system" can never succeed, dude, so I just stay at home playing among us and catching pokeyman creatures. On no account should you ever vote, for rizzle."

Did they really need an AI tool? I worked in healthcare for years before this stuff came out, and back then they didn't need AI to blanket-deny 90% of claims without reading them. United Healthcare was/is even worse.

Things I agree with George W. Bush on:

  1. Stay out of a brawl if Bo Jackson is on the other side
  2. This

Less harmful to Earth's environment, anyway. The environment on those asteroids is going to be all kinds of fucked up, hard luck for any giant space slugs that might be living there.
