Yep, this is a huge fucking problem.

Top bad the often proposed suggestion of “let’s just skip right to the end” isn’t actually a solution.

We’re all in better Ask Lemmy on .world

Probably the thing about a lemy.ml admin doxing some random user some 25 times. Which is VERY not ok.

Person A wants to kill 1 million people.

Person B wants to kill 50 million people.

You: “what’s a trolley?”

“Unlike Kamala, I will support Israel’s right to win its war on terror. They have to win! And instead of pandering to the Jihad sympathizers and America-hating radicals, we will deport them.”

• D. Trump, verbatim, on Nov 6th.

But yeah no, this will definitely improve things.

It’s usually not the LED that fails, but the driver

Buddy, you’re not the main character

I’m in the Netherlands, helping out at a station in a school gym. This station had three booths, with one low-height voting booth, both for shorter people, but also for people in wheelchairs and whatever other reason. A man in his mid-30’s comes up in a wheelchair, we check his ID, hand him a ballot and the famous red pencil, and point to the direct of the booths, where someone has the temerity of allready occupying the wheelchair booth! GASP, SHOCK!

The guy proceeds to absolutely flip his shit, calling us bigots, racists, haters and nazis for not letting him vote from a wheelchair. That “people like us” have always hated him. For what’s it worth, note that both him and me are roughly the colour of fresh milk.

It was super awkward, because the man was “punch-your-face” angry, and I was the only person there who was under 60… But like… he’s in a wheelchair, and I’m sure he’d hurt himself a lot more than me. I was seriously considering just wheeling him out, but he hadn’t voted yet, and assholes have rights too, and the optics aren’t exactly great on that. One of the old ladies who also volunteered told me “Don’t worry girl, we get a few like that every time, just let him go and laugh about it over dinner”.

The kept ranting on his way out the door.

Luckily the home had their own staff join the groups that came to vote and resuscitated him and he continued exactly where he left off at tortoise pace.

That seems terrifying

Despite being really really invasive here in Europe, I love the Staghorn Sumac.

It’s very pretty, with great flowers and soft furry branches (like antlers). You can make an amazing “lemonade” from the fruits and you can eat the shoots raw.

And eating the shoots raw is a great idea, because it branches out like crazy. If your neighbors have one of these, you’ll soon have half a dozen too.

They also grow pretty fast, and the wood is super pretty (and super curvy, so you won’t be making any boards out of it)

A life-ectomy, so to say

Oh, that certainly explains your answers.

Are you a Lemmy sock puppetry expert? Because I am.

Oh wow, a real sock puppetry expert! That’s so amazing, can I have your autograph to show to my children?

Funny, good one

If Adolf Orban hates it, then by default it must be a good thing!

On a somewhat lower pedestal: Eragon. What a hugely derivative poorly written piece of crap. I’ve run D&D campaigns with better dialogue and pacing than that.

It’s also FULL of errors

Can you truly brick a computer just by adjusting GRUB? Seems like a very fixable problem for someone who can make an LLM rush bash commands. Then again, that is a supremely dumb thing to do.

The Python-based tool was designed to generate and execute bash commands based on natural language input.

Emphasis mine, because anyone who does this might as well let a toddler bash the keyboard. The toddler will most likely just break the keyboard, instead of the whole machine.

Nah, I’m also not on Iran’s side in this. Probably even less so.
