Or say “ok, you got me there. But, two things can be true and I’m here to listen if you have something you want to talk about”

Go to a local PC repair shop? Will be much safer than giving someone on the Internet access to your PC. Like probably 95% nothing awful happens (esp picking some random Lemmy person) but in that 5% they will drop a keylogger, get your banking login and clean you out.

Potion of Water Breathing: DOES NOT RETAIN AIR BREATHING

Cube of instant castle: Say the keyword ‘open’ to transform this cube into a '200x’200 castle. The transformation happens instantly, and if you’re caught in the area of effect, be prepared to get smashed. The cube is hard of hearing.

It’s a furby right?

Also does not handle ‘IIIIIIIII’ -> ‘IX’ properly

To gain a human body you must find a human body. Most currently have would in them.

I have a medical condition that makes it difficult for me to defecate, so doing so often takes 20m or more.

I usually doo on my own time (because, like, ethic or whatever), but even so, this seems actively hostile to me and I wonder if there’s a legal remedy.

Bitcoin wouldn’t be an awful solution to this, but there’s certainly a few better ones, such as

• Visa and MC just being the opinionless payment providers they ought to be.
• Regulation enforcing all payment providers to be similarly opinionless.
• Ethereum, or another crypto more suited to many, fast payments
• A layer-2 network over Bitcoin that can enable many fast payments, such as the lightning network.

Most of these are good, just for different things. I want waffle fries at the bar; I want shoestring fries at the burger place; I want wedges at the cafe on the corner.

Except the zigzags. I don’t think I’ve ever had a good zigzag.

Maybe something could be hacked together to fix copyright, but further complication there is just going to make accurate enforcement even harder. And we already have Google (in YouTube) already doing a shitty job of it and that’s… One of the largest companies on earth.

We should just kill copyright. Yes, it’ll disrupt Hollywood. Yes it’ll disrupt the music industry. Yes it’ll make it even harder to be successful or wealthy as an author. But this is going to happen one way or the other so long as AI can be trained on copyrighted works (and maybe even if not). We might as well get started on the transition early.

Sounds fun actually

Oh shit it might be working

Rufus is great! I worked with the maintainer to fix a bug in hardware they didn’t have and it was a very pleasant experience.

Except his “house key” is a bump key.

I like to throw a bullion cube in there too.

How much do you blame Germans? As in the ones from 1940s?

We might not have started killing people yet but the signs are here, for anyone who cares to know their history. We had a Nazi salute at the inauguration for Christ sake.

Yeah. It’s shocking that your friends and neighbors are party to this. It was to many Germans too.

Ok, so imagine that you’re a billionaire and a really smart dude (as claimed by so many people on the internet). And you get into government and appear on TV and want to look good. You might hire a publicist, a PR team, some speechwriters, hell how about a body language consultant. When you go on TV you’re going to project exactly the image you intend to. Anything less would be careless and stupid, right?

So yeah. This was a Nazi salute. And if you really want to argue that it wasn’t, that Musk doesn’t even know what a Nazi is, you gotta also accept that he’s grossly incompetent and should not be in government at all. Throw him out, we didn’t vote for him.
