To me it looks like the judge wants something to be seen. Wealthy-and-connected privilege? Maybe even these documents show how deep into the known names this hole runs? Without the ambiguity of "the only documented thing is a dinner"

But I'm not an expert on the issue and judges in general, so maybe I'm misinterpreting something

Captive animal facilities where game species can be raised and hunted were banned in Montana under a 2000 ballot initiative

I think they took too big swig from twistonium bottle. Instead of "guy was organizing an illegal thing and it turned out he jumped through quite a few hoops to get to that point", they made it sound like the breeding part was bad

24h for people to react to a comment in some post?

I think you under-advertised your proposal

Everything that travels via a wave (wifi, gsm, radio, tv, etc) travels in more or less planar dimension. in order to stop it, you'd have to have some kind of wave blocking shutter (physical requirements for such a block would depend on the length of the waves you want to block) around the whole planet. Blocking waves is not feasible as long as we want to have sun

Tinkering is all fun and games, until it’s 4 am, your vision is blurry, and thinking straight becomes a non-option, or perhaps you just get overly confident, type something and press enter before considering the consequences of the command you’re about to execute… And then all you have is a kernel panic and one thought bouncing in your head: “damn, what did I expect to happen?”.

Nah, that's when the fun really starts! ;)

The package refused to either work or install complaining that the version of glibc was incorrect… So, I installed glibc from Debian’s repos.

:D That one is a classic. Most distributions don't include packagers from other distros because 99% of the time it's a bad idea. But with Arch you can do whatever you want, of course

My two things:

  • I've heard about some new coreutils (rm, cp, cat... this time the name really fits the contents :D) and I decided to test it out. Of course it was conflicting with my current coreutils package and I couldn't just replace it because deleting the old package would break requirements. So without thinking I forced the package manager to delete it "I'll install a new one in just a second". Turns out it's hard to install a package without cp, etc :D
  • I don't remember what I was doing but I overwrote the first bytes of hdd. Meaning my partition table disappeared. Nothing could be mounted, no partitions found. Seemingly a brick.
    Turns out, if you run a rescue iso, ask it to try and recognize partitions and recreate the table without formatting, Linux will come back to life as if nothing happened

So when they decide to save storage by stopping serving 20 years old game me and my one buddy play I have to pray it comes back one day? Fuck no. We are already loosing cinema history because of streaming.
There are games that are supposed to be consumed like fast-food (like online shooters that depend on large number of players) but these aren't even majority.

I propose a deal: they serve us games via subscriptions but the moment they pull a plug on a game they are bound by law to make it available on torrents

I'm not convinced by the premise of this statement

Scientific innovations should make ‘zero to one’ breakthroughs, such as the mobile phone or the combustion engine, but are instead making ‘one to many’ improvements to existing innovations

Maybe we are simply past the curve where a few people can innovate a breakthrough and now it has to come from a lot of data gathered from existing implementations? In order to invent a cellphone a lot of technologies had to be improved compared to their first introduction. And get cheap enough to enable experimentation

Buying any game after 3-5 years is the way to go. The bugs are fixed, patches are out, so mods are stable and most of the time you can find a sale where it costs 10-20€. And if you forget about it before that time, that means the game was not worth it

I agree that this is important news but what does it have to do with technology?

I use OsmAnd~. Mainly to analyze my skating routes (average speed, distance, etc) and planning sightseeing routes when on vacation.

For finding commute an app from local public transport is still the best and google maps are better than osmand, but for navigation on foot it's very good. And you can download the region earlier, so when you use it, you don't need that much data.

I stumbled upon this channel long time ago. Since then he claims to have Grown Real Spider Silk Using Yeast or taught rat neurons to play Doom.
The way he presents the content doesn't sound like a complete fantasy but my understanding of the topics is very rudimentary.

What do Lemmy biologists think about this channel?

And what do Lemmy scientists in general think?

My characters are organizing an extraction of local (country) MCT head of security. He is Japanese, raised by the corp from birth, but not completely beguiled as his son is an orc and he had to pull some levers to get him into school etc.
He's aware of extraction and agreed to it.

But the twist is that he decided to get extracted because he's taking the fall for a secret lab getting blown up in the middle of MCT office campus. So in a way he was made responsible for actions of some shadowrunners and now he's hiring (technically it's his mother organizing this but that's a detail) another ones. I think that can evoke some ambivalent emotions.
They are going to meet in secret soon to get some of his blood, pass the details of the plan, etc.
What are your thoughts on how to roleplay his attitude towards the characters and the whole thing?

P.S. He doesn't know that but, of course, it was our jolly bunch of psychos that have blown the lab up.

When I was joining ~a month ago the situation was very different

I tried lemmy.one - had some issues joining
I saw beehaw.org - no downvotes - not my jam
I saw lemmygrad.ml - too political for my tastes
I saw sopuli.xyz - most of local posts and server maintenance posts were in language I don't speak - maybe I can find something fitting me more?
I saw lemmy.world - small but not looking like private, in Europe, so pings should be ok and description seemed fine
I also saw lemmy.ml - seemed like the main instance with the most users - having some understanding of federation from Mastodon migration I decided to spread the load...

And here we are :D

Today I seem to be unable to comment in a local comunity. The "Post" button keeps spinning.

I tried reloading the page, reload the cache (ctrl+f5), waiting more. Yesterday posting was working for me.

If the old ones (in my case these came with the skates, made out of aluminium or some other metal) seem to be working fine, is there any gain in replacing these with some "higher quality" ones?

Sometimes I see an interesting question but since I prefer to watch "New" these are usually without any responses. I would like to be able to "watch" the post and get notified about new comments on it.

I know that there is the save button and when I list the saved posts it will show me if there are some new messages. But still a notification would be nicer.

Any way to have that currently?

As in the title. I know that the word jailbreak comes from rooting Apple phones or something similar. But I am not sure what can be gained from jailbreaking a language model.

It will be able to say "I can't do that Dave" instead of hallucinating?
Or will only start spewing less sanitary responses?
