Television@piefed.social•What are you watching and what do you recommend this week?English
2·9 days agoI’m on season 4 of Episodes and it’s still quite funny. It’s shot and dialogue are a bit calmpy at times, but then they build up some hilarious moments that work really well.
I’m also on season 3 of The Diplomat. It’s okay, kind of lost me a bit compared to first two seasons but I’m interested to see where it ends up.
I also really enjoy The Pitt, but waiting a week between episodes is annoying with the constant cliffhangers. Season 2 of Fallout was good but not as good as season 1. I’m looking forward to season 3.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I have a rasberry pi 5 collecting dust, what are some neat useful things i can do with it?English
2·10 days agoLook at selfhosting apps. Pihole is popular since it has some immediate benefits for other devices in your network. HomeAssistant is amazing if you’re into automation. But there’s hundreds of cool selfhosted apps that can improve your life depending on your interests. Getting familia with Docker will open up a lot of doors for easily launching servers hosted on the pi. What are your hobbies?

News@lemmy.world•New Mexico warns against consuming raw milk after newborn dies from listeriaEnglish
34·17 days agoPersonally I think we’ll continue to have problems if misinformation is never found culpable of the deaths that they cause. There’s no way this person decided to drink unpasteurized milk alone. Who was her community and why aren’t they being held accountable? I have the same concerns with the head of the HHS, and previous cases of stochastic terrorism. Our system of justice (or what it once was…) is just illprepared for this.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•To those who are new to this whole fediverse/threadiverse/this thing, how has your experience been?English
3·17 days agoI am wondering if this is presented better in different UIs. I’m regularly using the Summit Android app and there’s at least a button to see cross-posted communities with a comment counter to see if there’s more action traction somewhere else. It might be nice if it had some indicator that there’s a more active thread than the one I am currently on. I am not sure how other front ends handle it.
Or maybe the issue is dual posted content that isn’t cross-linked because it was submitted independently. Not sure of a solution to that that isn’t a lot of work.

News@lemmy.world•“This Job Sucks”: DOJ Attorney Asks Judge to Hold Her in ContemptEnglish
1·17 days agoI think the problem is her not properly informing the judge WHY she is being stonewalled or ignored by her company. The judge holding her in contempt is probably not going to do anything because ICE doesn’t give a fuck. So she should name names who WILL give a fuck so that they will be held in contempt.
The judicial branch could do something, include holding federal employees in contempt.

11·19 days agoFriend, you are the one that brought a legal argument to the discussion. You’re being disingenuous by saying it’s now irrelevant when I asked for specific evidence supporting your claims.
I don’t know what a formal right is.
A “healthy kid” can also understand the need for parental guidance, particularly before teen years.
There is no general case. We’re discussing minors. Kids are not being victimized by being raised by competent, privacy minded parents. They don’t need the privacy in their digital communications while they are a minor. They need it when they are an adult, and my kids will know the value of that privacy better than you understand it.
Take care.

Pravda News!@news.abolish.capital•Cook County State’s Attorney has “taken no action whatsoever” against feds, new lawsuit allegesEnglish
1·19 days agoThank you Attorney Sheryl Weikal!
I don’t understand how the federal government gets a pass breaking all these fucking laws. It was ALREADY the law! Where are the consequences? Rule of law my fucking ass. Are the officers that arrested Representative LaMonica McIver and Mayor Ras Baraka facing ANY consequences?
Me and two of my siblings went for PhDs, and only one came out successful. I got to teach a ton during my attempt which I really loved, and having the PhD would open up a few of those doors. In my career (tech) there were only a couple short times where I thought having the PhD would help, but over time I managed fine without it.
As to why I didn’t get the PhD, my advisor was truly awful and I didn’t recognize the signs since I was just going hard at the work. Tons of red flags were there in hindsight. I wised up and quit a few years into PhD (after already earning a masters) and went software engineering, and by all measures have had an excellent software career. Several years later he was convicted of federal crimes and disgracefully removed from the university. So somewhat of a vindication of my experience; I regularly imagine what could have been, but not because I have any specific regrets.
I still love learning and think I may still go for the PhD some day. Another sibling just had too much happening in life. Tried to do a work sponsored PhD and couldn’t get it over the line before having to move on. She may revisit it some day, but it’s tough juggling a slightly different job career and now she has kids to make it more complicated.
For my sibling that made it, it was tough. They had alot of anxiety and stress. They use their degree to teach now so I guess it was nevessary, but it’s not glorious by any means. They don’t make a ton, and have had to move universities and programs. They were able to leverage a lot of skills from their degree (biology) but it’s still a pretty regular battle even when not doing research. They aren’t able to support a family on a single income, but that is increasingly common.
If you have the time and passion, I don’t see why not. I am getting some textbooks in some fields and will see where it goes. Maybe I’ll go for a PhD when my kids go off to get their bachelors! I guess my advice is making sure you fully evaluate the program, the advisors available, the time commitment, what different exits look like, and if needed, what doors the PhD is actually opening up.

cybersecurity@infosec.pub•"Without carrying out any actual hacking, simply by logging in with an arbitrary Google account"
12·22 days agoI guess I didn’t explicitly say this in my original comment, but my intended point is that kids do not have a right to privacy. I explained from a personal POV why I as a parent make this choice, but since you’re interested in the legal side: kids cannot provide or revoke consent because they do not even have this right. Legal guardians have this right on behalf of their kids. This is true pretty much universally across governments. If you have a specific example I am happy to change my mind. Particularly for ages 3 to 9, which is what this toy is targets to (which I would never buy heh).
The government provides many legal safety protections for kids (so we can skip the arguments related to invasive privacy that is violating some other protections), but by and far most countries and US states do NOT provide kids a self-managed right to privacy. Parents/legal guardians control the consent of their kids. So you’re simply wrong.
With that said, kids should absolutely bring up home problems and concerns with other trusted adults. If privacy is being violating another legal safety protection for kids, then they should absolutely bring it up. If the kids don’t like that the parents are violating their privacy (even if it’s legal), they should bring it up. I personally would never hide any monitoring I have on my kids, and wouldn’t recommend that approach to any parent.
There could be a legal issue for violating a second party in a two-party consent state, or third-party monitoring. But it’s almost universally true again that single party monitoring is allowed for minors. And I’d be happy if you brought any specific claims if you disagree.

cybersecurity@infosec.pub•"Without carrying out any actual hacking, simply by logging in with an arbitrary Google account"
22·22 days agoI think you’re missing the major thesis of my comment. This is not at all about trust. For example, they literally do not understand when they are behaving like a bully. It requires educating them. They don’t understand when they are being rude sometimes. They don’t understand many aspects of culture, why would they? I’m not going to let middle school group dynamics shape my kids moral compass. Empathy needs to be taught, sometimes very explicitly.
I’m sure they will come to us for advice and help, and I also know they won’t come going to us for everything, which is fine. But I’m not going to half ass raising my kids. That goes for dozens of topics.
