Oh no, you!

26·8 hours agoThe most serious charges, racketeering and sex trafficking, are a lot harder to prove in court.
For the example of racketeering, it has to be proven without a doubt that the parties (Diddy and henchman) were both knowingly committing crimes. In this particular case it was hard to produce evidence of the henchmen doing anything more than following instructions which in themselves were not of a criminal nature.
Fuck him, though. Even though he did not get the verdict we all know he deserves, nobody would want the toxicity of working or associating with him again. Well, maybe Kanye.
No. I am convinced that dreams are brain training towards scenarios that may or may not become relevant one day.
Last night I dreamt about being at an airport, unsure about where and when my connecting flight was. Surprisingly realistic, considering how often I fly, but unrealistic in the sense that I always know this beforehand and always carry with me a small paper note listing the following:
- Flight number
- When
- From-To
- Estimated landing time
- Booking code

Iran tried farm-to-table nukes, but they weren’t very popular.
As a scandinavian who have spent many nights in Texas and a few other GoM states, I don’t think I’ve ever worn anything else than 20 while sleeping there. Too warm, hotel windows don’t open (why??) and the bedding is too layered.
18 or 20.
18 If I was wearing boxers before going to bed.
20 if not. Usually it’s the latter. I paid for comfy high-threadcount linen, I want to feel it too.EDIT: 16 on rare occasions such as a nap.
No. It is never morally wrong to ensure your own safety.
“But those who allowed nazis to come to power were doing just that!”
…no. Most of those weren’t ensuring their safety. They were ensuring their own comfort (in the beginning, at least)
If a regime is targeting you or your loved ones: Lay low. If the regime is targeting someone else: Resist, especially if at worst you’re gonna get a slap on the wrist.
Simplified: It’s a crystal ball that allows you to see through space. However, the target can also see you.
Think of it like one of those

EDIT: Just for the record, it’s been over 30 years since I read the books. I may remember it incorrectly.
I think the only “required” one on your list is Instance: It’s one out of many servers. Lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works, etc.
I find it useful to think of it topologically like an IRC server, if you’re familiar with how those work; many of them connect and share content - You’re on an instance/server, but can interact with users and content from different ones.
The rest are more oriented towards Linux, servers (in general), and aren’t really required for Lemmy use in general.
This is where I started to explain what a codebase fork is, but then I realized that I fucking hate typing on my phone.
If it’s urgent, I go down there. If not, I schedule an appointment (how soon usually depends on the severity. Can be the next day, or the next week).
Example: My oldest kid (12 years old at the time) fractured his arm while in school last spring. I was notified right away, so I picked him up at school and took him to the local clinic (3 minutes away) . The doctor wanted some xrays done, so he referred him to the local hospital and gave him some painkillers for the one hour trip (we live kind of in the middle of nowhere).
We arrived at the ICU (it was after “office hours”), so we had to wait 30 minutes for the x-ray tech to be available. Turned out a titanium rod insert was needed, which requires anesthesia, so they couldn’t do it the same day because of fasting requirements. Operation “scheduled” for the next day. He was given a temporary cast.
Day arrived, and while there was a bit of wait since it was something they’d just have to insert into the schedule for the day whenever possible. Surgery went according to plan, and he was given a sandwich upon waking up, as he hadn’t eaten since the day before. He had a new cast on that he had to keep for a couple of weeks. The local clinic could remove it, but they wanted to do it at the hospital so they could do a follow up xray to see that it was healing properly.
A few weeks later, and things looked good. Cast removed.
A couple of months ago he had the titanium rod removed without much ado.
My only expense was the fuel cost for driving to the hospital.
The only negative feedback I have is that my son didn’t get to keep the titanium rod as a souvenir after they removed it. I guess the doctors have better things to do than washing gore off of scrap metal.
Depends on how you define “opposite”. I’m thinking direct democracy or anarchy.
85·2 days agoSome nuance I read recently: The argument from above is basically that they want Ai research to continue as it has national security value. Therefore, any limitations or regulations to AI research should only happen on a federal level.
The idea is that all states should share the same playing field so that any researchers do not have to treat states differently.
Counterpoint: I heard it was Dave
No use for me. DHS and probably every other three letter agency in the US have my prints, name, and picture on file after getting various work visas a while back.
Worst: My sister’s wedding. Because I was so hungover the next day words cannot possibly describe its magnitude.
Best: My friends wedding. I was the best man, so I took it relatively easy, so despite being one of the last people to call it a night, I was relatively fine the day after.
However, I’ve only ever been to two weddings, so the range isn’t that wide: They were both pretty fun events.
