My favorite was “not having a valid boat registration”. It is such a great addition of insult to injury. “Oh look, this dude thinks his ‘truck’ is a ‘boat’. Guess we have to cite him for not registering his ‘boat’. What a shame.”

2·12 days agoAnd if the company does it again, every shareholder goes to jail for an amount of time proportionate to shares owned. Or something, I dunno, I just feel like if we only hold CEOs accountable, companies will start just using the position as fodder so long as it is still more profitable to break the law and accept the punishments.
It’s kinda weird how society just decided we were only going to teach one generation of people how the fuck to use a computer and no one else gets to know.
Being able to download and install software from somewhere that isn’t the app store has been available the entire time, it is not “new”. I remember downloading .apk files and installing them on my first android phone, and it just worked. It wasn’t until my 3rd or 4th phone that you had to start enabling “unknown sources” to install a .apk, and they have been working to make it harder ever since.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•How common was video game piracy in the 90s?English
10·29 days agoEveryone I knew with a PS1 had a mod chip in it to play copied games. Cracks and CD-keys for PC games were everywhere online. It was dummy easy to do even before Napster or Kazaa, but those things definitely accelerated it. I remember people in college having pirated copies of photoshop, mathematica, and autocad because they needed them for classes and didn’t have $600-$1000 to shell out on software on top of books - I know that isn’t games, but the principle of pirating them was pretty similar at the time.

7·29 days agoYea, calling it all torrenting, when referring to an era before torrents even existed is wild. Dude is making up their own language about it at this point.
if you know a dragon’s true name, you have control over it.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Serious Linux vulnerability affecting nearly every system. Patch your systems.English
21·1 month agoDumb question but… It says that patches were committed to mainline on April 1st. How would one know if their distro has already fixed this via updates or not? I run a rolling-release distro on my desktop and laptop, and usually update once every week (or two at most) so have already ran updates 2 or 3 times since the patch was deployed. Am I likely good? If I’m not, is running updates all I need to do to be good? How would I know?
That’s for your daily driver desktop right? Right??

How do you write the date for the “leftover” day? Like, thinking about dates in Excel.
I mean, I get what you are saying, but also like every other comment is talking about how the wish goes wrong by not letting you speak something that isn’t true and I just wanted to explore other ways the genie could “monkey’s paw” the wish. ie removing the wisher’s left half. “They’ll be all right.”
Genie is looking at you like this because it’s weird watching only the right half of a human form sentences without issues. It’s also weird that the person didn’t seem fazed by the removal of their left half.

1·2 months agoin Our Daily Lives
Right… Most of us fly every day. That’s a daily occurrence for sure. It isn’t seeing them at diners or patrolling neighborhoods that affects our “daily lives”, it’s the airports. The place that has been a totalitarian dystopia where we all know we have no freedoms or rights and haven’t for 25 years.
Well there’s no arguing with that…

World News@lemmy.ml•Iran claims direct hit on US F-35 stealth jet, video shows damage midairEnglish
8·2 months agoConsidering stealth usually refers to radar detection, which can pick up aircraft hundreds of miles away… Yea. It was never meant to defeat “looking at it” as a detection method.





I feel like the answer is different if I am just resurrecting them as they were when they died, vs if I am magically in charge of the brand with funding to start “fresh”…
