If you have to engage, swear at them. Most LLMs don’t swear without a lot of cajoling.

I don’t buy into the “anyone can build a gun” argument anyway.

Bullets in america are not tracked, logged, or otherwise managed in any way by the american government. They don’t matter for making a gun because literally anyone can walk up to their local pawn shop and get some without any identity checks or other hassle.

Guns made by 3d printers are kinda shitty, in the exact same way that jellyfin is kinda shitty compared to Netflix. They both do the job, but one just takes more time and effort to get running.

Making a untracked 3d-printed glock is entirely doable by the average Joe.

What you’re talking about has existed for decades at this point. Most grey/black hat forums rightfully ban collective ddos tools when they see them. Turns out that the difference between duplicating a copyrighted work, and actively attacking a private server are vastly different, legally speaking, and get prosecuted a lot more forcefully when found.

I suspect that the usual alcohol/weed choices don’t actually change anything. They just deaden our ability to care as much about not messing up and whatever the current sensory shit is doing. So, less autism, but only because it’s less of our experience as a whole.

Lmao at Dwayne’s knife belt. It’s so over the top it’s goofy.

One accusation from her abusive family, as an excuse for not taking proper care of her, does not make for a credible diagnosis or reason to post this here.

My dns config options always have at least two spots. Obviously, this means I need two piholes to fill them both up.

More seriously, it has actually saved my network from going down a couple times already.

Ah, I think there’s a bit of a disagreement here between what types of art are respectable and what types aren’t. For context, I subscribe to the definition of art that says “everything made with intent” is some form or other of art.

Suppose you go to a gallery. Would you consider handicap-hostile architecture, which is part of the exhibit itself, to be worth respecting as a art enthusiast? (Stairs required to be used in order to see a painting, specifically because the artist wants you tired from walking, not pushing a wheelchair, which they don’t like, when you look at it, for example.)

I could see it both ways, but I fall more on the side of accessibility. If an artist requires someone to use stairs to see their art, they are an asshole, regardless of how good their paintings actually are.

One step forward, two steps back. I always hate how politicians can be so accommodating of the popular minority while still being so discriminatory against the less popular ones.

I’ll give you ‘satire’. But I don’t really agree with ‘critiques’. The lesson i got from the movie was “stupid people can’t really have empathy, so they just need to shut up and let actual smart people do the important work”, and also eugenics.

If it was critiquing the modern corporate structure, it would have included actual critiques of the modern corporate structure, rather than a single poor idiot in charge of a big company who should have just let the smart guy fix it all for him. In short, comapnies as they are would’ve worked if only the smart people were in charge of them.

It’s very much a thing. The smaller the company you’re purchasing from, the more likely you’ll find a counterfeit product of theirs available for cheaper. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/10/06/how-us-small-businesses-are-fighting-counterfeiting-in-china.html

I get the white-label / drop shipping distinction. It’s why I mentioned them both. I also get that chinese manufacturers can make new stuff too. It’s why I didn’t say shit like “china never innovates or makes new products, they only steal”.

The difference between a white label (drop shipped) product and a counterfeit made at the same factory on a different work shift is impossible to discern.

You literally can’t know if what you’re buying is original or not anymore.

China has a huge counterfeit industry, and amazon is complicit in helping them out with it. https://daxueconsulting.com/counterfeit-products-in-china/ https://www.marketingscoop.com/consumer/amazon-fake-products-policy/

Basically, anyone wanting to make anything has two options for manufacturing; in house, and in china. In house is way more expensive, and much less likely to result in profits. In china is incredibly easy and much cheaper, but as soon as you ask for them to pause making your product, they turn around and rebrand it and sell it for much cheaper everywhere they can (Temu, amazon, etc).

Another part is that a lot of manufacturing companies don’t speak English, so there is a whole industry of people who know Chinese manufacturers who will sell their translation and industry contact services. Super helpful when you have a good relationship with them, but the instant that turns even slightly sour, you discover the major downside of having a middleman between you and your product tooling: you have absolutely no power to stop anyone in china from using your tooling to make cheap knockoffs of your product, legal or otherwise.

The other part is that they depicted the corporations as completely innocent idiots too; “the computer said the money went away so I had to fire people and now they’re all rioting in the streets!” As if the company wasn’t at fault for all of that.

It’s not completely out yet. That was likely AWS being down.

Also, the new quantum protected message encryption headers are about 2kb. If that’s causing issues with your internet, you may want to consider looking at new internet.

When you do get around to changing the graphics, maybe you can ditch the ovaries and uterus look of the logo.

Lmao I hadn’t even noticed, but yes, definitely that.

It costs money for them to attempt to sort between honest/upfront advertising and the scummy kind.

You kinda have to play the lottery with the HDMI cards; some of the can strip it, some of them can’t. And it looks like some of them strip it and get detected.

They can’t advertise that as a feature either, so it’s a bit of a crapshoot. It may be worth finding the latest reddit post about it to see if anyone has a specific model that was working in the past year.

Honestly? Don’t do the whole switch, or even a big switch from a few services to another.

Start small. Very small. Try doing just one service you rely on, like your images or music. Immich just announced their first stable release. I use navidrome for my music. Make sure to test these on a copy of your data, not your actual data.

Once you’ve got one service working as you want it to do, then you can try your hand at another service. This way, you don’t get stuck trying to do everything all at once.

It may be worth considering how much (if any) you want to spend at the start, too. That’ll inform your next immediate task; setting up basic backups for your data. A spare drive is a good start, but it may be worth keeping another one at your parents house, or similar.
