jacksilver@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Covid․gov now points to a ‘lab leak’ conspiracy website4·1 hour agoFor the US maybe, but right now it seems like the wider world may survive.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Political Humor@lemmy.world•Not a real quote.... Or is it?English4·1 hour agoI mean the Levitt just held a briefing where she literally acted like no one had a question at the end and just thanked everyone and walked away - here is an article about it.
Literally asks “any questions?”, repeats it (while ignoring raised hands and callout), then walks away.
Edit: Realized the meme was originally about Levitt so updated names.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts?3·2 hours agoWhile I’m all for glfree sudoku “Studio Goya” and their series of sudoku apps are more than worth the cost, especially Miracle Sudoku
I know this is a thread about Foss, but they really put some crazy thought into these puzzles.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Nearly $1 billion of DOGE ‘savings’ vanish overnight4·19 hours agoAt the rate we’re going, I fear that may be an understatement.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Global News@lemmy.zip•Trump admin proposes redefining 'harm' to endangered animals11·19 hours agoThere is no one in the US who will benefit from what Trump is doing (besides maybe Trump and some cronies). The only people who seem to be benefiting are Russia and maybe China.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Global News@lemmy.zip•Trump admin proposes redefining 'harm' to endangered animals1·19 hours agoThe long term impacts of Trump and the current Republicans is going to be larger than anyone is estimating. All those tech companies will be hurting in the long run.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Maggie Haberman says ‘Trump is smiling’ as law firms that ‘bent the knee’ face lost clients and worse4·19 hours agoI mean the “damned if they dont” is cause everyone is just bending over for him, if everyone fought him he wouldn’t have the resources to fight back.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•What's a cancelled game you really miss?English3·2 days agoThanks for this, I was confused cause I thought it was still being released.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Judge Enters Contempt Order in Venezuelan Deportations Case7·2 days agoIf we get to the point where the senate convicts him, I think it’s game over. That means that republican party has finally turned on him (meaning they think the public has too).
US is sliding towards authoritarianism, but having the whole country against you is still not something he can overcome.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Judge Enters Contempt Order in Venezuelan Deportations Case4·2 days agoIf this, republican majority impeached him, then the senate would definitely convict. In that case Trump is no longer the president.
The past two times dems held the house, but not the senate, so Republicans in the senate prevented a conviction.
Impeachment means there is evidence of misconduct (at a significant level). Senate conviction means you’re out as president.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•The Jewish community is waking up to this administration using them, and I'm here for it301·2 days agoI honestly don’t think I know a single Jewish person who supports Trump and the current batch of Republicans. Nor do I think any of them approve of what is happening with Palestine (although this topic has a lot more variety in opinions and emotions).
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Programming•Any suggestions for a self-hosted CI that can also be run locally?1·2 days agoAhh, I see what you mean.
At that point I feel like you may as well just use makefiles. Did that at an old company, it had params for local deployment testing vs CICD. This also let’s you define how you break the local deployment tests, as usually you can’t really fully test a CICD locally.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Programming•Any suggestions for a self-hosted CI that can also be run locally?4·3 days agoI don’t think that’s accurate, the post is from seven years ago. Additionally there are a lot of materials online that indicate your still can - https://virtualizare.net/devops/how-to-run-gitlab-runner-locally-best-practices.html
I actually think their song for Mashle season 2 might be better - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZN98D5_N4M
Edit: should’ve mentioned the band is Creepy Nuts
jacksilver@lemmy.worldBanned from communityto Liberty Hub@lemmy.blahaj.zone•American politics truly is "status quo good, facism bad"23·3 days agoExactly, we can’t even get the country to agree facisim is bad. Kinda happy to settle for incremental steps forwards compared to massive leaps backward.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Television@lemm.ee•What's the worst instance of plot armour on characters you've seen in TV?English2·3 days agoI think it’s really just supposed to be more of a narrative device. The purely logical AI with the almost robotic human drawn together by luck of the draw.
In the books, they definitely lean a bit more into him “making” his own luck. There is a whole bit with him predicting coin flips and it’s presented in a way that implies he knows how to twist the odds in his favor (whether purposefully or unconsciously).
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Buy European@feddit.uk•TIL Weber, the barbecue brand, is American (the founder was a German immigrant who created the company in the USA). What European brands do you recommend?4·4 days agoWeber may as well be Chinese at this point. Broil King is Canadian and actually manufactures their European grills in Canada (if I read this right)
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Rubio says another 10 people have been sent to El Salvador12·4 days agoWhat vote are you referencing? Rubio’s appointment?
Tariffs can work, but they should be targeted and executed in a planned way. Completely decoupling China and US is more likely to break things than fix them.
If you look at Biden maintaining tariffs, export controls on chips, and the Chips act you see a very coordinated and purposeful policy to keep the US at the center of chip design and manufacturing.
