This sums up my experience with chicken

Cows aren’t stupid (by animal standards). Just slow. Calves are like puppies.

What nobody foresaw was that the internet allowed these benign isolated idiots to connect and form a super-cell, and begin coordinated recruitment.

Mr Bombastic

Literally the victims and the perpetrator both were advocating for the indiscriminate murder of Arabs. The hate is mind boggling.

You can set up a “personal cloud” on a machine in your house that you can use as a “cloud” from anywhere. There are a lot of free software options to achieve such a thing.

“Nextcloud” it a pretty broad way to do that. You can run it from an always-on desktop.

There are a ton of nerds (myself included) who do this kinda thing, and we have our nerd communities on Lemmy and elsewhere. The general term is “self hosted”.

“THIS MESSAGE BROUGHT TO YOU BY RAID SHADOW LEGENDS”

No kidding. That’s like half of Lithuania.

There is a joke they say sometimes, something along the lines of “ok but just remember if you’re the last to leave remember to turn off the lights”

When you’re 18 you have a nearly fully developed brain but almost zero experience of the adult world (which was graciously shielded from them by adults who deep down know the adult world fucking sucks).

I love them. I envy them. They absolutely should have the vote. Their perspective is invaluable. They have to be in the conversation and at the table.

But like… They’re still incredibly naive, generally speaking.

I hope so. I hope the motivating factor was a shift in his beliefs, and not being told they couldn’t let him in the ring with it.

I mean, there probably is: you can’t have trillions of dollars moving through that many hands without something shady happening.

But like, DOGE isn’t going to find it. They can’t. They’re operating as if fraud means money just “vanished”. Like they’re going to find some account is missing a billion dollars nobody can account for. That’s not what fraud looks like at scale.

It’ll be more like, contracts awarded (or not awarded) based on listening to businesses say things that they know not to be true, intentionally misrepresenting information and their positions to shape public spending. For example, convincing California to not build transit because you promise you can dig them tunnels, when you know full well you’re never going to build them tunnels.

That’s what fraud looks like, and there isn’t a DB query for that.

Not saying he hasn’t tried. “SELECT * FROM government WHERE fraud_flag = ‘fraud’;”

“Damn, didn’t work”

“Maybe the flag is ‘secret_fraud’…”

I strongly recommend not disclosing that you intend to use the monthly savings on vodka and gummies

I can’t believe that a convicted felon could get so many votes…

Kerbal made me just as worried about getting stuck in orbit as I was about getting there.

I looked into this, because I was curious.

Sounds like the common thread in all the complaints revolve around HostPapa being unable to handle the constant barrage of pen-testing that a WordPress site gets exposed to, and trying to alleviate by forcing WP sites off shared hosting.

So, ya, if you’re running a WP site, would not recommend. By my read, it’s probably a legitimate issue and users are probably not overreacting.

I’ve never ran anything aside from bespoke PHP on hostpapa, and I had no issues with that… But honestly my read of the WP situation would scare me off HostPapa for sure.

Godot has been making leaps and bounds. Obviously not close to UE, but if it maintains its rate of improvement, I can see it becoming a more and more common choice in the indie space over the next few years

I’ve worked with hostpapa on very small projects years ago, so I can’t speak to their capacity to operate on high powered commercial projects… But they’ve been around for a long time,at least. My experience with them was good!

JD is drawing false equivalence, to lead to the conclusion that law doesn’t matter.

Does a judge plan a military operation? No. But they can establish if it is legal.

That’s their whole job, to establish if actions violate the law. If they violate the law, they can order them to stop.

Judges don’t write the law. You don’t like the judge’s ruling? Change the law. Judges don’t write the laws, they just interpret the ones that exist.

JD is arguing that judges (and by extension, the law, and by extension the fundamental concept of the rule of law) don’t apply to him and Trump. It’s literally an argument for monarchy.

Things have changed a lot since '14.

Like “on the one hand it’s a hassle having your husband be president”

“… Buton the other hand… I want my daughters to have rights…”
