Can Iran hit Los Alamos then?

Learning how to use documentation should be the first thing you do when you try the Linux terminal. man vim, Vim page on the archwiki, etc.

I mean, just type :help and then use your arrow keys to scroll around and read how to use vim/neovim.

It’s like that straight from the source. This guy is just taking from the government.

There are more delivered 737’s than any other commercial aircraft, ever.

I came into that article thinking “it’s been nearly 150 years since emancipation, it can’t be that bad, right?”, but then I saw “current median net worth five times larger than their peers whose ancestors were not slaveholders: $5.6 million vs. $1.1 million”. That’s fucked up.

I can’t find any hard numbers on how many Americans are descended from slave owners, but from my rough back of the napkin math it looks like they are represented in congress disproportionately high.

American racism being deep and ingrained isn’t new, but this study shows it’s not something to be taken lightly.

Maybe, maybe not. They probably would’ve been hacked regardless, things went downhill quick. The hackers weren’t ever identified, and it’s unlikely they had the capability to do that.

Wasn’t exactly my workplace, but a contractor. Basically, as a cost saving measure, they layed off half of the IT department. And then they got hacked. They just re-flashed everything, and the threat was out of their system, but they messed up big time. The new images weren’t locked down properly, so they almost immediately got hacked again. I noticed that they’d messed up, and pointed it out to a few people, but it was too late.

Now the execs need a scapegoat, so they gut the IT department again. I don’t work for them, not even close to the business relationship, but their managers call me to a meeting room and try to get me in trouble? Try to make me admit to doing something wrong? And it was just their admin people there, not like my heads or anything. It was kind of a surreal experience.

This was a while ago, and their tech is still a bit funky. (Some details are lightly fuzzed, but this all is basically true)

Oh darn, it seems the website isn’t up anymore. It was, to my knowledge, never archived and never properly indexed by a search engine. I have no screenshots, so it’s basically lost media. All this to say it’s unlikely anyone here has heard of it.

Well, it was an IWW split called the “International Workers of the World” (it seemed to be composed of at most 3 people). If my notes are right it was internationalworkersoftheworld.org (seems even DNS is completely dead now). Their webpage was simple HTML, from the dates it hadn’t been updated in years, and most of the body was complaining about IWW internal politics, and people who had long moved on from the union.

Did Lemmy always have it so sites can be embedded?

It’s a bit of a false dichotomy, there’s a broad spectrum in both.

A lot of the benefit of religion doesn’t come from the beliefs itself, but the community around them. You could just have a community built around other things, or even a religion that doesn’t mandate theism (UU’s and Quakers come to mind, they have fairly large atheist populations. There’s also less “serious” religions, like TST).

It’s not really something we can do, sadly. Reddit closing it’s API was more about getting money than actually stopping it’s use as a training set.

Having an allow-list is a start though, as it means that a company can’t just make an instance and suck all the data out through that. Common corporate crawlers could be added to the robots.txt, but that would mean that you might not be able to find lemmy instances in search results. We could make it against ToS, but what are we going to do, sue the massive corporation? They have plenty of lawyer and payout money, so very little would fundamentally change.

Ultimately, if content can be served to us, it can be served to them.

No, SDF doesn’t have any particular bad rap, most of you are nice. There’s a reason there hasn’t been any serious discussion of defedding Hexbear from SDF.

But all the same, not being from Hexbear or Lemmygrad (and to a lesser extent lemmy.ml) means that foreign policy takes I don’t agree with are more common. Especially since there’s often people that will have leftist beliefs about domestic politics, but have different feelings about foreign policy. Not to say that Hexbears can’t have bad takes, but but it’s fewer, farther between, and they often end up with the comment removed or are banned quickly.

Perhaps my wording was a bit misleading, though.

If they were from a different instance, I’d probably think they were being serious.

A long, long time ago (before I can even remember, I was that young) I attempted to pick up something heavy, and fell into the corner of a wall (like, the outside, so it was pointy). I needed stitches, and I still have a scar.

The details I all got second hand, but I can still just barely see the scar.

If you’ve ever tried DMT, that’s what heaven is like.

Hell is basically a speedball gone wrong.

Why wouldn’t they be in the olympics? Unless a country is banned, it’s just something a country does. Even places that aren’t technically countries participate! There is 206 delegations at this years Olympics, and the UN only recognized a total of 195 nations.
