Transporter Room 3

You cannot “pre-emptively” defend yourself, an attack to head off a suspected attack is still an attack.

Other than that semantic nitpick, personally I’m there with you… However, you cannot seriously be pointing this out without also recognizing that Israel is very much the initial offender in any conflict that arises as direct result of their actions in gaza.

If I let a bully sucker punch me so I have an excuse to beat up all the people around them, and then someone else close by hits me, I can’t honestly say I am the one who is defending myself.

From my understanding, it’s how many processes it’s running?,

Could be open tabs, but my Firefox always has at least (3) even when I’ve just opened it.

Tldr I don’t think this is an unpopular opinion.

Cake day?

I have no idea what day I first started using lemmy, or when I made an account. I’m okay not knowing.

As for “karma”, do any instances track total karma, or just per-comment? Honestly I don’t give a shit if my comments do well or not, I don’t live for other people’s amusement.

As for other people, I can’t speak for them, but I haven’t seen anyone crying for lemmy to be more like reddit.

I had to fiddle with my own on my old laptop, I used one of the plethora of github scripts, but then they changed the api to limit access to (I think) about 100/min, so I just changed the delays to 1000ms so it would only delete 60/min.

Took two weeks, but I still haven’t seen any old content pop back up outside of archives and quotes from other comments in the thread.

I search for a couple random things I remember saying on ddg/bing/Google whenever I think about it, so far nothing.

As I’ve said before about certain countries, you know your platform is doing well when you (essentially) tell people “No, sorry, you can’t leave.”

No worries, text doesn’t convey tone well and I could see how my comment might seem like I was calling YOU smug for not taking interest in something.

Oh no, I meant the other guy saying “you’re one of those people who enjoys helldivers 2” in a way that’s clear he’s trying to say it sucks and he’s better than that.

You didn’t come off as smug.

Then you’re missing out.

You can do both. Sometimes at the same time!

And most likely without some kind of smug sense of superiority over helldivers 2 players of all things like the other guy.

Oof. Honestly I’m surprised it was only three. At least you finally have a paper trail, if you’ve got any insurance that might cover it.

As for the ISP, there’s always the possibility of requesting assistance directly from them, but they probably have internal rules about handing info to non-law enforcement, regardless of the reason.

And if you’ve got some friends who don’t mind backup for intimidation, you could always show up at each workers door, politely introduce yourself and the reason for your appearance. If any of them immediately slam the door in your face or get defensive upon recognizing you (before you tell them why you’re there) then there’s a good chance they know you’re there because they took something.

Anecdote: this happened with my truck in 2019. Someone broke in and stole about $1500 worth of things from a really nice pair of binocs, to the 2000w inverter, and my hand-made bowie knife, and a couple small camping and fishing things. Had to threaten to call the only supervisor I know by name in the police department to get the guy to even take a report for my insurance. They didn’t bother following up with the woman who told me she saw the guy. A few weeks go by and I see someone fitting his description driving the described car, I follow for a bit and he went home. I parked the truck right up in front of the door, knocked, and as soon as he opened and looked past me to the truck he yelled “GET LOST OR I’LL FUCK YOU UP” and that was all I needed to call the cops. After about an hour of waiting someone showed up, talked to the guy, said “well he said he didn’t do it and we never called this woman for a description so we can’t be SURE”

Well lo and behold, a quick glance into his car showed the 2kw inverter under the dashboard, and I was positive I could see the rather distinct custom leather strap of the binoculars under the seat.

No idea who, but apparently someone smashed the guys window to steal a bunch of stuff out of it and they were kind enough to return my items. Crazy how they knew just where to leave them for me to find.

Best of luck in recovering it. Hopefully you get the quick and less… legally/morally ambiguous way.

The system is working as designed.

Nothing to see here, move along.

“is a lengthy time consuming process”

No, it REALLY isn’t, and any pig that tells you otherwise is trying to get you to drop the issue so they don’t have more paperwork.

They don’t give a shit about your stolen items, and 9/10 times it’s a complete waste to even contact them over “petty theft”, regardless of how valuable the item/s are to you.

Never heard of it before, but now I know what I’m doing this evening.

Same. I’ve been using magicearth but I keep my eyes open for any alternative to a popular google app , just so I have a backup if something goes wonky.

You know, as much as I hate it… “you know it when you see I but hard to definet” really is accurate.

There’s plenty of things that aren’t outright illegal that are completely inappropriate around children.

And if there are things that are context specific, it gets a lot harder to make a computer recognize a problem.

Audio cues are easy to scan for and computers are pretty good at recognizing sounds, especially in regards to copyright detection (even if their interpretation of “fair use” clause is still fucked 6 ways)

Video is a lot harder unless the computer is trying to match direct images (it’s a lot easier to recognize a still frame from The Avengers when it’s uploaded full size than it is to recognize a slightly warped, smaller cropped version with someone in front of it commenting on the video)

First time?

Land of the Fee*

Pfffff yeah if you don’t use a faday cage the size of a room in the style of Enemy of the State.

native Americans in spaghetti westerns.

I’m not sure how it is in Italy, but a lot of the older Italians I know absolutely love old westerns (of… Varying quality)

Could this be evidence of TIME TRAVEL??? Click here to find out!

Yeah, but that makes it clearly a case of age-related memory issues and neurological degeneration, instead of vaguely sounding super mysterious and clickbaity

And they’ve got money to make over at literally every website that keeps retelling the story and puffing it up.
