Thats pretty brutal. Putin is well on his way to being considered the greatest villain of the 21st century with his complete lack of concern over loss of human life. I do feel sad for a lot of these young men who think they are doing something heroic, when really they are dying for the vain ambitions of a dictator cowering in a bunker in Moscow.

The explosion should have been completely silent! My immersion is ruined!!!

Yeah it absolutely would benefit from a wider range of opinions. That’s why a large portion of my comments are “against the grain”, I don’t see the value of reinforcing prevailing opinions in an echo chamber. I hope that as Lemmy grows we will see more diverse opinions, but what I think is more likely is that the hard-core leftist part of Lemmy will sort of secede and defederate so they can preserve their echo chamber while the rest of lemmy gets taken over by “normies”

Not very Auth of you! You sound like a hedonistic libertarian to me.

It takes patience but you can block all the political communities. Once you do that you just have to block a dozen or so super users who spam the other communities with political content.

That’s the thing that drives me crazy- communities that really should be non-political like “Pictures” or idk “Cars” are full of posts like “Heres what Trumps reversal of EPA regulations means for the future of EVs.” Like I get it Trumps bad but can’t you contain that discussion to the 5000 communities devoted to politics?

Yeah that’s literally what a lot of aftermarket motorcycle parts say.

Maybe, but having read the book I don’t think that’s what Krakauer was going for. The last chapter is basically a bunch of experts roasting him for making mistakes and getting himself killed.

I think he tried to smoke it, right? But he didn’t do it right and it spoiled.

Well it’s interesting that it makes regular ringing/metallic sounds when it’s dropped(at least in the movies), so it is not inelastic. Which means it could be deformed if placed under extreme force but it would always spring back into shape. So I think it might be the world’s most powerful spring.

…well that is unfortunate humanity is cooked haha

Time to give this a watch m8. Never give in.

Nvidia will likely lose a huge chunk of their share price, but I don’t see them going bankrupt because selling GPUs is still so profitable. If they can’t sell to AI companies there are plenty of other people lining up to buy them.

Untitled Goose Game is what you are looking for :)

You’re downvoted but you’re right. AI slop will never replace the world’s best musicians, artists, writers or actors-but it can definitely replace entry level, unimaginative, stock-footage type stuff. And then the creative arts die from the bottom up. In a few decades the artistic world might look a lot more like how it did centuries ago, with the content makers largely being privileged and connected people because it’s so much harder to work your way up from the bottom.

They are mean but I like them and hornets because they kill pests. As long as they’re not making nests in my yard yellow jackets are cool with me.

Bald-faced hornets have a really bad reputation but I had a nest under my roof overhang and they were awesome. Built a beautiful hive and never gave me any trouble even when I walked right below them. There were a couple days last year where invasive June bugs were swarming around my house and I saw a hornet snatch one right out of the air which was pretty badass.

It’s frustrating how many assumptions people make about your beliefs just because you are trying to make a purely fact-based correction. Like if I try to say something like “the victim was actually armed when they were shot by the police” (made up example) people just instantly assume I’m a fascist bootlicker when I’m really just trying to get the facts straight. It’s just that misinformation that goes against prevailing opinion gets instantly swatted down but misinformation that validates people’s opinions is tolerated way more than it should be.

Yeah suing his therapist is NOT what op needs to be doing here

They really had something there with Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn. The aesthetic of the movie is cool, I didn’t hate watching it in theaters even though it’s pretty dumb.

Illegal take but I actually do like smart TVs. Unless you never use any streaming services, it’s a useful feature that would otherwise require an external device to do the same thing. Now if you have your own home server or something, that’s cool too, but that’s more hassle than I want to deal with.

Okay, you are right, the missing information in the article though is that Comoros themselves said the vessel is not registered with them. I don’t think it would have been legitimate for France to simply say “we suspect you are flying a false flag” and seize the vessel without evidence.
