Why does ml crew defend modern day Russia? Modern day Russia is not a communist country. I’m confused why any communist would defend the USSR in general, especially after Stalin took power. Makes no damn sense to me.
Also a drop safety to prevent the gun from going off if you drop it.
That said it doesn’t have a safety that most people would think is meant by the word, which is a switch that prevents the trigger from being pulled (that is not built into the trigger itself)
And yes, that second paragraph is BS.
Another alternative is don’t connect your TV to the internet.

I see multiple courtroom sketches of him in the article, but the fake one is linked on X
“OP wants to pay an American middleman to import the Chinese junk for him”
Listen to the episode from last week “why cynicism is bad for you” … you’re on to something with your post here that is covered a lot in the episode.
What is a computer?
Right? Imagine if Iran did this to Israel.
Maybe it’s because Israel recently pulled something similar with a bunch of pagers.
I doubt this will have any impact on employee day to day. This will be management telling employees to deliver the same exact amount of work at the same speed as before with no extra time to address security. However, they will now be judged on the security components of their work retroactively when things break.
He did so by playing a cover from Third Eye Blind
I think most people in California support the crackdown. California tried the compassionate approach for many years, but we are sick of seeing meth heads in our downtowns. From the article, these people are being offered shelter beds and are refusing them. They are turning down help. There has to be a limit.
I play a fair amount of games, and picked this one up because of all the hype. I probably played 5-6 hours, but the game just did not grab me. I’ve tried 2-3 times to get into it, but it’s not clicking.
Meh, as much as I hate Trump, I’m not a fan of the idea that someone could be sued for tweeting video with a song in it.
It's my first time building a computer. I also haven't really done much PC gaming in the past 15 years, except on my Steam Deck. Actually, it is the Steam Deck that has convinced me to invest in a desktop PC with some more power. I like the Linux experience on Steam Deck and would like to stick with that if possible. I haven't used Windows in 15 years either, as I tend to use Mac OS and a bit of Linux for personal and work. Windows seems to just get worse and worse and I'd like to avoid it if possible.

In any case, I went with an AMD CPU because I've heard about Intel's recent corrosion issues. And, chose an NVidia GPU since I'd like to take advantage of ray tracing. I've heard the driver support can be a bit mixed on Linux, but I'm open to trying to make it work unless folks think it really is terrible. Any feedback is helpful.
Anyone recently watch the docuseries American Conspiracy about The Octopus Murders on Netflix? Any theories on who killed Danny Casolaro or any interesting information on some of his connections? I had never heard of the case before but, my god it’s like a rabbit hole that pulls you in.
I’m always surprised by the quality of comments on Lemmy and the analysis provided, often by experts in their field. It gives a sense that the average Lemmy user is a lot smarter than the average member of the public.
Also, when it comes to politics, I think the average Lemmy user is pretty perceptive of what real power dynamics are at play and what interests society should be looking to promote.
It's been a pleasure to be on this platform with you all. Where do you all come from? And why is it so hard to find people like you in the real world?
There can be a lot of junk on Temu admittedly, but it’s kind of fun to find a few deals.
Found a pair of Leatherman Raptor shears ($99 USD) for $12
Also found a Benchmade Follow Up Fixed Blade ($120 USD) for $16
Bought a drone for $15. It’s not high quality, but it’s a drone, for $15. Fun to mess around and learn with.
Anyone else find some deals? Or, got another suggestion besides Temu?

My favorite part is the way my grooming kit and pen fit into my minimalist wallet. Always handy to have a nail clipper, comb, and pen in your back pocket taking up as little space as few credit cards.
Global conflicts have a habit of sneaking up on money-managers
Other kinds of posts in the feed are sensitive to actions to scroll, but videos are not scroll sensitive, so you can end up having difficulty getting past them.
I see lots of communities with hundreds of subscribers, but no posts. What is with that? If you’re going to register a community, at least help it get going. Post some content regularly, until it becomes self-sustaining. It’s disappointing to open a community with hundreds of subscribers and not a single post.
I already get rate-limited like crazy on lemmy and there are only like 60,000 users on my instance. Is each instance really just one server or are there multiple containers running across several hosts? I’m concerned that federation will mean an inconsistent user experience. Some instances many be beefy, others will be under resourced… so the average person might think Lemmy overall is slow or error-prone.
Reddit has millions of users. How the hell is this going to scale? Does anyone have any information about Lemmy’s DB and architecture?
I found this post about Reddit’s DB from 2012. Not sure if Lemmy has a similar approach to ensure speed and reliability as the user base and traffic grows.
