Ever since HowToBasic's vegan recipes taught me how to cook good vegan meals, I've slowly been leveling up on this chart. My aim is to reach level 5 this year.

Unrelated community, and downloading emulators from anywhere except where the developer intended to publish it is sketchy.

Pop OS. Don't use much of its custom features since I have installed sway on top of it and did some custom edits, was thinking of switching to another distro but they announced COSMIC, which looks very cool. Why not stick with the distro that could have the best experience with it?

You can use a duckdns subdomain as a testing ground if you want to make sure if all things work well before buying a domain. Normally you can also host sites under your ipv4 address too; but it might break stuff on lemmy, never tried it.

Beauty of the fediverse is that all are intricately connected using the protocol ActivityPub.

Want to be exempt from tariffs? Don't worry, Troll Physics has got your back.

Step 1: put a small sized SOC to the biggest pc case you can find

Step 2: fill the rest of the case with your preferred good to exempt from tariffs.

Step 3: declare your import/export as a computer

IRS will be mad, Trump will be jelly. Problem?

For that price you could easily get citizenship in 10 different countries AND secure estate to live in each of them.

If I was a millionaire, I'd rather go this option.

My go to trick is to check if they have Huawei VR2 driver game listed on their Steam games list. No real human is going to have it, and its part of an "increase your steam game count" script.

There is, you can join my instance lemmy.bascul.in for 499.99 a month. Its benefits are:

  • Useless
  • Expensive
  • May or may not cause nuclear fallout

But its worth its price. Plus with a tiny addition of 599.99 you can get a T-Shirt that smells like strawberries.

The Turkish president has hit out at military graduates who took a pro-secular oath during their graduation ceremony, promising that those behind it would be “purged” from the military.

Speaking at a conference for Islamic schools in the northwestern city of Kocaeli on Saturday, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan described those involved as “opportunists.” He added that an investigation was underway and vowed that ”the few impertinent individuals responsible will be purged.”

...

Turkey has become more overtly religious under Erdogan, shedding some of the secularist traditions of the original Kemalist republic.

Turkey’s military has traditionally viewed itself as the guarantor of secularism, which has resulted in a series of coups. It led three takeovers between 1960 and 1980 and toppled a conservative government in 1997. However in 2016, an attempt to overthrow Erdogan and his religious-conservative administration was foiled and thousands of people were purged from the armed forces, the judiciary, and other public institutions.

 

Couldn't find international news coverage of this, so I'll do my best to translate it:

CHP spokesman Deniz Yucel has made a statement about his SIM card getting duplicated and WhatsApp account being hijacked by malicious actors:

"While the methods used by malicious actors are not fully clear, my phone number was taken over in 19 August 2024 around 14:40, via malicious actors pretending to be me to request a new SIM card for my 25 year old number. The SIM card on my phone has been automatically deactivated; the malicious actors first changed my Whatsapp profile picture to President Erdogan, then sending the people I've added or to the visible groups pictures of Alpay Ozalan captions similar to 'would you like Alpay Ozalan to hit you too?'(*), Soon after discovery, we've sent a warning message on social media channels about this incident and contacted to people I've added through WhatsApp, and soon after got the account terminated. We've been in official talks to fully resolve this situation.

Note that this issue isn't caused by any security vulnerability caused by me or the party. This attack was done because of my position within the party. If malicious actors can do this to someone within my position, we can assume no one's communications and personal data is truly safe; but I am leaving what to think of this up to the public. I will be suing my operator turkcell for all damages, and will report this incident to the prosecution's office to pursue anyone involved in this attack.

Don't doubt that we will follow this all the way through and ensure similar incidents won't happen against any of 85 million Turkish citizens."

(*) The message is a reference to the previous parliament crisis in Turkey
