The actual fuck did they think was gonna happen? Literally everyone saw this coming except the FTC somehow I guess.

Ok but will this run on my TI-83? It’s a + model.
I think the next thing they’re gonna do is go after people who sub for a month and then unsub. Probably by charging a good bit more for month-to-month than paying annually.
Password crackdown aside, I don’t really get the appeal of the service unless you have kids or an abnormally large boner for Star Wars and MCU
For my particular niche (illustration) it has a way better concentration of active (and also importantly) high quality actual working professional artists on it than mastodon.
The art scene on mastodon is pretty meh and the largest art centric instance is run by unstable authoritarians that are some of the biggest sources of drama on mastodon.
Not a gotcha question, but what things did the LHC discover that have real practical applications right now other than validating some hypothesis? Because I’ve looked into it before and turned up nothing so I’m wondering what I’m missing.
Yeah I’m just not sure how much I believe this thing is worth the investment at all and the fact that it’s 100km just proves these guys were like “uhhh, let’s make it BIG NUMBER KM LONG.”
I think there’s likely quite a lot of other worthier expenditures in science research than this indulgent toy.
Yeah for sure they both have their pros and cons, I’ve used both extensively. This just happens to be something that would particularly fucking infuriate me and I’m glad I don’t have to deal with it on my daily driver.
Sorta feels like someone kicking the door into your house and tacking up billboards on your walls or something.
Say what you will about Apple but I don’t have to put up with this insane shit at least on their computers. I really wonder how long they hold out on this stuff.
I had a post of mine flagged for multiple days on there because it had an illustration of a woman in a full length wool coat completely covering her and not in any way sexual. Shit is so stupid
Pretty interesting. I’m gonna take a wild guess that most of the low level (green) jamming is just plain old electromagnetic interference?
Really curious to know what’s going on over Poland. Found this article talking about it. Seems to think Russia is responsible which I suppose isn’t a surprise.

Yeah this is just childish bullshit journalism. Orban is for sure a piece of shit but like… who wrote this trash?
That’s how you know everything’s going great
They really have just given up on being a good search engine at this point huh?
Well I sure have. Especially before multiple servers defederated with Lemmygrad and Hexbear.
As if tankies aren’t constantly simping for both Russia and China on here.
A little history refresher on the origin of the term
The term “tankie” was originally used by dissident Marxist–Leninists to describe members of the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) who followed the party line of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU). Specifically, it was used to distinguish party members who spoke out in defense of the Soviet use of tanks to crush the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and the 1968 Prague Spring uprising, or who more broadly adhered to pro-Soviet positions.
So specifically being a tankie and supporting fascist bullshit go hand in hand and always have.
Being that the exterior is some sort of stucco/earthen kind of material, it would have been refinished on the outside multiple times in 600 years. There’s buildings around 800 years old where I live that are in great condition because they’ve been well maintained. Also it’s pretty typical for old religious buildings to have been added onto and modified in phases. Quite a lot of the big old churches in Europe changed in design and grew in size over 100s of years, for example.
Really? I’ve heard it kinda sucks these days. I used to use it years back though and am a big Firefox supporter.
There’s a book called The Media Monopoly that details how media companies have consolidated to just a handful of mega corps and the book had to be republished 5 times since the 80s because every few years the number keeps shrinking dramatically. The author later released a brand new book called The New Media Monopoly which is essentially the 7th edition of the original book and at this point we’re in a fucked up late stage version of the problem he originally detailed.
From the Wiki on the author:
The Onion is a bit too accurate sometimes.
