I have trouble with using tone in my words but not interpreting tone from others' words. Weird, isn't it?

  • What's an album with a completely unique sound

    Jump

  • just checked a few of its tracks out. like what i think is every other fan mix that doesn't use the deepfakes it lacks the (missing) vocals for Look, Worms, and Dada, the latter absence of which makes the album extremely unsatisfying and confuses the contextless first-time listener who's likely looking at this thread; see, for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkJ-jRHVIxY&t=12084s

    TL;DR: It's a great fan mix, but fan mixes with missing vocals are probably not the first-time experience you want to go for.

  • You're right. There was a case with Special Counsel Jack Smith on his Jan. 6 actions but the charges did not including threatening the VP.

  • it is my personal opinion that the relevant law should be abolished, but since 1917 it’s been a felony to threaten bodily harm or kidnapping of those within the presidential line of succession, which does not include the mayor of new york city unless he decides to run for the presidential ticket or marry and become trump’s immediate family.

  • Turkey pardons, where every year the President saves two turkeys from being killed and eaten. These do not open the door to anything.

    the vaultkeepers alliance misplacing the key is what makes this such an amazing onion, though you probably agree, and I guess "Cryptographers unveil backdoor to every key ever created after losing key" would be an even better onion

  • What's an album with a completely unique sound

    Jump

  • Radiohead—Amnesiac (especially the B-sides) Mr. Bungle—California ミラクルミュージカル—Hawaii: Part II (strongly related to Tally Hall, which is famous for their hit debut Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum) Brian Wilson Presents SMiLE (my preferred recording of this legendary unfinished album for its complete orchestration, but I very much get the argument that it just doesn’t sound right without the Beach Boys’ voices, so I also recommend giving the Dae Lime mix a try for its combination of original and deepfaked vocals)

    Could we talk about Unity? I'd wager that these bugs wouldn't have been found by 2027 if Ubuntu hadn't adopted sudo-rs. And I'd say "look at where Unity is right now" if they hadn't switched to GNOME Shell.

  • One of the patches is to prevent the sudo password from being leaked in case of a timeout or sudo being killed. Another patch is to use enum for the feedback parameter. Another patch to ensure feedback is always erased before exiting the read unbuffered code. Another change is also made to not treat backspace as a password character when the password is empty.

    What are some things America has lied about in the history books but the world accepts?

    Jump

  • that is covered in the history books tho? it's cited as the biggest fault of the johnson administration, the impetus for the war powers act, an entry point to introducing the topic of counterculture in the textbook (flower power, anti-war, peace sign, Kent State...), and the progenitor of distrust in the government, after all

  • Kentucky official reminds residents they can't vote for New York City mayor

  • Geoffrey Skelly, an analyst for Decision Desk HQ, responded on X: “If Kentucky had just remained part of Virginia in 1789, voters there could be voting for #VAGov right now. Their loss.”

    The Louisville Democratic Party responded on X: “We are here for this energy. Kentucky, put our primary May 19, 2026 and Election Day, November 3, 2026 in your calendar for our next elections!”

    Journalist Caitlin Huey-Burns wrote on X: “This is a good public service announcement.”

    George Conway, a former Republican lawyer, responded: “There is a distinct possibility that some people are too stupid to participate in a democracy.”
