This comment is how I always hope my info dumps go when someone asks me a technical question about something I have good experience in using. 10/10 comment, love it.

I can choose for this to make sense to me. I think it's intended as gibberish though, so I don't know what that means for me.

My thinly-veiled lack of understanding of Linux is in shambles. CPU optional?

From what I can tell, it's a juxtaposition thing. Many of the other shooters used in memes have stances that appear outlandish, and have gear that looks a little strange, almost trending towards ridiculous. The man you're referencing, Yusuf looks incredibly casual in comparison. His stance is at least recognizable as a shooting stance (even if it's almost appears too casual), his hand is in his pocket, and he isn't visibly using any of the gear that many other shooters are.

I haven't kept track very closely outside of the memes, so I can't comment on Yusuf's performance in comparison to the others, but the memes paint his character to be someone that gets the task done with minimal resources, where the others are given the role of a "tryhard" for the sake of the meme.

Evidently the imagery of these competitive shooters resonated with enough people that Lemmy had a small breakdown, but I always love to see my Lemmy feed trend into one topic for an evening or two. We all remember the beef stroganoff incident.

I do love me a blurry graph. Really helps me understand how fast.

I definitely agree that whatever decision the courts make, this person is not going to be properly rehabilitated via the sentence.

I obviously have no expertise in the matter, but I really do wonder what the appropriate "consequence" would be for something like this. They're still a child, basically at 12. But they committed to doing something VERY permanent. Do they have any understanding for what it is they've done? I would think they have a semblance of it. Emotions, hormones, and everything about a pre-pubescant can run hot at those ages, but this was an egregious failure for self control.

I'm very likely just being a fence sitter about it. Murdering someone over something petty like this would be an obvious charge for an assumed adult. Just hard to wrap my head around it when I see news like this I guess.

I can only sympathise, and thank you for posting this because I need to hear good things right now too.

I've seen this meme before with a follow-up comment along the lines of:

"Gandalf, as an immortal, extremely powerful being, is functionally doing this by putting the ring on hobbits and driving them to Mordor"

What the fuck that's a good stick

I'm a little out of the loop on webp. What makes it problematic?

I'm moving soon, and won't be taking the cat that has lived with me for their entire life, since he is my roommate's cat.

I wish I could sit down and explain to him why he won't see me as much anymore, and that I love him, and will miss him. Also to stop eating every god damn thing he finds on the floor.
