Also not that it matters anymore but the Supreme Court already ruled it unconstitutional a long time ago as it’s a form of poll tax. Remember when Supreme Court decisions weren’t just “whatever Trump wants today” and actually were based on the constitution? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
So overall a very good change it sounds like.
Sure, but that’s not the way the story is framed. The framing makes it seem like the FBI having the records is the story rather than the FBI firing agents for doing their jobs. The headline is just terrible and is blatantly biased to try to make the agents actions seem nefarious. To be clear I wasn’t criticizing the posting of this story or trying to suggest that the poster shouldn’t have submitted it, it’s more a criticism of reuters and the way they’ve chosen to approach this story. It would have been nice to see an article posted about this that focused more on the blatantly corrupt firing of the agents rather than dedicating most of the story to discussing the seizing of the records and getting sound bites from politicians.
… and? They were private citizens and the records were relevant to the case. The only reason they’ve got their panties in a knot over this is because they’re trying to cover things up which is exactly why the investigation was happening in the first place. As long as the FBI had a warrant for those records they seized this is a non-story, just an intelligence agency literally doing their job exactly as they’re supposed to.
Internet of Things is a terrible no good idea, but Intranet of Things has some potential. Entirely local mesh networks like Zigbee and Z-wave solve most of your problems, doubly so if you properly confine their controllers into their own non Internet routable subnets.
It’s honestly my biggest complaint with the Matter standard, it has Internet bridging baked into the design while the prior standards made that completely optional.
Part of the problem is that it’s a feedback loop. People use social media and somebody makes some misogynistic content which angers people which then gets the algorithm to promote it heavily. Then somebody else who’s inspired by that content makes their own misogynistic content and the cycle repeats. Once enough of that content is circulating it becomes the norm and a bunch of people start dogpiling on it to be part of the in crowd. It’s particularly pernicious when it’s being used to blame people’s problems on others which is how the incel and red pill groups got their start.
It’s not just the girls/women that need to get off these platforms, it’s the boys/men as well. Algorithms that reward anger and controversy are a significant part of the problem and really should be looked at to be regulated the same way gambling and addictive drugs are.
It was claimed by someone (an Israeli government official I think?) that there’s evidence in the files that shows Trump committed cannibalism. I don’t necessarily trust the source of the claim at all but I’m also not going to categorically say it’s not true. I don’t think it’s likely but there’s been a laundry list of things I would have said are unlikely that keep happening.
Because it proves they’re incompetent.
Unfortunately the EU has no say in the tariffs that the US charges its own citizens. US customs can just ignore the Supreme Court ruling and keep charging people to get their stuff out of lockdown and there’s not a whole lot anyone can do. In theory the Supreme Court could maybe charge Trump with contempt of court but that’s about as likely as Trump suddenly becoming a decent human being instead of an ambulatory bag of excrement.
As if anyone in Greenland would want the substandard American healthcare, particularly with Mr. Brain-worm toilet-licker in charge of things now. Anyone visiting that ship is more likely to come away with some new disease like measles and a prescription to horse dewormer than they are actual healthcare. Greenland should put up a giant quarantine zone around the ship.
Or in the ground, I’m not picky either one is good.
In a perfect world Vance would die from a freak couch accident, and Trump after being told his favorite sentient anal polyp was dead would be so shocked he’d have a massive instantly fatal heart attack.
Except for all the time of the maintainers that’s being wasted. Time that is very finite and that for many of these people is a thankless unpaid job that they’re donating their nights and weekends towards doing.
When a crypto wallet is lost all “money” in it is irrevocably lost with no way for anyone to ever retrieve it.
That said it would be hilarious if one of these bots hallucinated a wallet address so everyone trying to donate to it just sends their money into a black hole forever.
The problem is that if you’re traveling here you’re likely to be grabbed at customs as you’re either entering or leaving the country so whether your final destination is a blue or red state is kind of irrelevant. While the current regime is in power it’s safest for everyone to just avoid traveling to the US.
The tricky part here is that many of these reviews aren’t about how they feel about the game but rather how they feel about the developer or publisher, often based on wildly inaccurate speculation. Valve has a particularly tight rope to walk on this one because it does seem problematic to dogpile some game because of a perceived opinion that has nothing to do with the actual game itself.
One possible solution would be to add a category system to reviews that let’s reviewers correctly categorize their reviews, purchasers exclude categories they don’t care about, and Valve only removes miscategorized reviews. Categories could be something like “game contents”, “game bugs/technical issues”, “drm”, or “publisher/developer opinions”. Maybe make an entry form on the review itself for each category and you can just leave any category you don’t care about blank in your review.
This might also help solve one of the more long standing problems with Steam reviews which is that reviews of early buggy builds often linger long after those bugs have been fixed and can provide a somewhat inaccurate impression of the current state of the game.
When you think about it, that’s all programming really is, it’s just that Rust pays a bit more attention than other languages and does a better job at spotting problems at compile time instead of letting them turn into runtime problems.
It’s always the ones you most suspect. You could probably be closely aligned with the constitution without knowing a single thing about the law by just always taking the opposite position from whatever Thomas, Alito, and Kavanaugh take.
That’s not necessarily true. Many of us actually paid import tariffs directly. For instance I had to pay ~$300 in order to get a package I ordered to clear customs. Had I not paid it would have been returned to the manufacturer.
The problem with putting new into impl<T> Adc<T> is that because self and T aren’t used by the function the compiler has no way to work out what T is supposed to be which would force you to define it (even though it doesn’t actually matter). So E.G. if you attempted to invoke let adc = Adc::new(...); the compiler would complain that it was unable to determine what T is even though it doesn’t matter. You would for instance need to do something like let adc = Adc::<()>::(...). By putting it inside the impl Adc<Ready> block you’ve constrained the type of T to Ready and therefore there’s no need to specify it when calling new. So while both approaches are functionally identical, one is more convenient to use than the other.
Unfortunately it’s not just Lemmy. Corporations are obsessed with LLMs as are a lot of the people working for them. I daily get messages and meetings about LLMs in one way or another and it drives me nuts because it keeps interrupting actual work. In the span of like two months it went from something that was mentioned maybe once in the last year to be 90% of what everyone is talking about.
