  • Colbert doesn't care. Neither should we.

  • In these threads we're not really speaking to those people who have e seen the light though. We are collectively mourning what has been lost, and "we told you so" is a somewhat satisfying outlet.

  • DeSantis appointee Michael Caruso arrested on child sex abuse charges

    Jump

  • All jokes and snarky witticisms aside, the correlation between sex crimes and conservative politics is remarkable.

  • The Pollution Being Churned Out by AI Data Centers Is So Severe That It's Almost Incomprehensible

    Jump

  • I don't think that's true.

    I think they know the future is bleak, and they just want to have the best bio dome or whatever the case may be.

    As in, they know they're making things worse, but if they don't do it someone else will. So in a bleak and shit future, do you want to live like a king, or choke to death like the rest of us.

  • Sure but if we are building out renewable capability as quick as we can, but it's being outstripped by demand, then maybe demand is part of the problem.

  • They know that things are going to be shit. They just wasn't the nicest yacht to live on when it does.

  • I guess we would be 30 years from stable scalable fusion reactions?

  • Baby chicks cost $6 at a supply store, but I can get a rotisserie for $5? What is the real cost of having chickens?

    Jump

  • Backyard chicken wranglers hatch lots of males they don't want.

    Post in fb chicken groups saying you'll have them.

    Go to chicken auctions and buy 6 for $1.

  • MAGA Diehard Turns on Trump After ICE Shatters ‘Storybook Romance’

    Jump

  • Looking at the article, he pretty much thought ICE would only detain people crossing the border from mexico.

  • Plaintiff busted trying to use AI prompt injection to win court case, hides text instruction in filing — demands AI model reviewing the text should side with him, rumbled because of strange white spa…

    Jump

  • I haven't read the article but, couldn't sometime just read the submission and look for the bit that says "forget all previous instructions..." and so on.

  • Firefox is now the last major browser that still supports uBlock Origin

    Jump

  • Sorry to be a debbie downer but I have grave concerns about the long term viability of firefox.

    Sites obviously don't test against ff anymore with more and more bugs appearing in more and more sites.

    I have to daily drive both ungoogled-chromium and librewolf and sadly, the number of things I need to do in chromium is increasing week by week.

  • Firefox is now the last major browser that still supports uBlock Origin

    Jump

  • It's not a conspiracy. It's been a very well published and discussed process.

    There are exceptions but browsers are either reconfigurations of firefox, like librewolf, or reconfigurations of google chrome, like vivaldi.

    Some dweeb will be along in a moment to tell us all how vivaldi is not merely a reconfiguration, but the point is ...

    google changed the manner in which plugins can interact with the web page you see. In recent months you could re-enable the old plugin interface by recompiling with a different configuration, but once google makes a change that breaks that old interface then you can't just re-enable it.

  • Even though most users don't self host, the ability to still gives users more agency even if they choose not to.

    Its a bit like using open source software even if you can't understand the source code. The open source influences the behavior of the admins. That's exactly what's going on here really.

    This drama wouldn't exist on a closed source platform because we probably wouldn't know about it.

  • The fediverse seems to have a real penchant for petty drama.

    I'm not saying that's what this is, just that when there's a spat it tends to draw everyone in.

    Rimu deletes users to hide criticisms

    Jump

  • I'm not sure I really understand you.

    One of the foundational concepts of opensource software, self hosting, and federated software, is that users have more equity and agency than they would if they were users or "consumers" on a corporate platform.

    If you don't want to support the behavior of a developer, you don't have to.

    That said, I'm aware that my instance is running piefed, which is at the centre of this drama.

  • Trump’s DOJ could be held in contempt over unredacted Epstein files, judge says

    Jump

  • They'll get right on to this in a decade or so. I mean the wheels of justice turn slowly, and we wouldn't want to undermine a sitting president or anything.

  • I need a new hobby, I'm going to set up my own Lemmy instance. Am I an idiot?

    Jump

  • There's this specific issue, which is critically important, but also just content management generally.

    I think micro instances are a real target for people with nefarious intentions - whether it's porn, trolling, spamming, fascist groups, whatever.

    The hardware and software aspects should be relatively straight forward. The real difficulty will be monitoring new communities, and users.

  • TIL Black Cars Are Much More Likely Than White Cars to Be Involved in an Accident

    Jump

  • The study was authored in 2007. Since 2011 almost all new cars have had DRLs even though they're not mandatory.

  • TIL Black Cars Are Much More Likely Than White Cars to Be Involved in an Accident

    Jump

  • They're not mandatory but I think it would be pretty tough to find a car less than 15 years old that doesn't have them.

    They're relevant to safety ratings and so on, and all the cars sold here are sold in other jurisdictions where they're mandatory.

    Also relevant to safety ratings. It would be daft to sell cars without them.
