Likewise.

It’s also only just now dawning on me /bin is short for /binaries. I always thought it was like… A bin. like a junk drawer hidden in a cupboard

I’ve been on the fediverse for over a year dude, but people from Mastodon don’t generally end up on /all thankfully, so I don’t generally have to deal with it.

Oh. Fair enough. I always forget Mastodonians are allowed to interact with Lemmy from Masto

For any Mastodonians wondering why I asked, this is how it looks from Lemmy:

#Why #are #we #doing #hashtags #on #lemmy #now?

Oh, Yammer, that’s the one. I never really used it much either, I don’t think I can get behind sending memes on a company platform monitored by your manager, fully tied to your actual identity. I had to use it for store news and such. I did some deep digging, sure hope they couldn’t see that. I went back years out of boredom and curiosity and found some juicy arguments. Seriously, who’s arguing with people over inconsequential things on a work social media??

I don’t really understand work social media groups/websites. I worked at a KFC for a while, and we had this weird Microsoft Facebook knockoff called yapper, there were occasional manager rants specific to our store and congratulations posts, but company wide was just weird. Mostly just memes and people begging for krushers back

Neat, TIL!

Let me answer that question in a lot less words than the article:

Does a high-quality camera phone always come with a high price tag?

• no.

I feel a bit split about this. Seems it is an actual law, and it kind of makes sense. You probably don’t want random components from unknown people and places in your multi million dollar space equipment. But it feels rather arrogant to just demand such things.

Is NASA actually a customer? Did they pay for a license to use curl (genuine question - I’m not familiar enough with it to know if enterprises and organisations require a paid license)? Are they planning on becoming a paying customer? Do they make donations to the project? If not, it feels kind of rude to send a demand letter to the lead developer of a free piece of software straight up demanding a formal letter stating where the free software is being developed and maintained (for free), or if outside the USA, that the free software has been tested in the USA. Oh, and a bonus demand that such information be returned within 5 business days (naturally with an implied “or else”, just to really make sure those pesky people maintaining open source software for free really get the memo)

In any case, why don’t all their scary 3 letter spy agencies go and figure it out on behalf of NASA themselves? It’s open source, they could just like, read the source, test the source, and audit the source themselves. Or fork it and make any modifications they’d like to ensure its safety

I don’t blame the person sending the emails, obviously, they’re just following orders, but the whole email reads as very entitled and arrogant, assuming NASA don’t provide any compensation to the project and projects maintainers for their use of curl

A few months ago they started blocking VPN IPs from accessing Reddit while not logged in. I don’t think you’re able to create an account from a VPN either (though don’t quote me on that one)

Who looks at this and thinks it isn’t satire lol? I sometimes struggling with telling satire apart, too, but this is the most obvious piece of satire I’ve seen in a long time.

Oh uh yeah I love things! What about stuff? Do you like stuff? Because um I think stuff is really uh good, without stuff life would be uhh worse

I wonder if that means we can claim adverse possession

Hell, even half of their “treatments” ended up making the problem worse or killing you even quicker

I was born in 2007, so as of next year: me. My country has mandatory voting anyway, so I don’t have a choice in the matter, but I would even if I did

Do you ever have to note or recall information afterwards? Because for me it wouldn’t be the sitting in a call for 5 hours part that would be the problem, it would be someone asking me to tell them anything that happened in it that would be the problem. I couldn’t even tell you who was in it

It always makes me chuckle a bit how internet censorship (at least in western countries and on a personal level (school and work networks excluded)) is almost always just done through DNS. I mean I’m sure not going to be the one to tell them how laughably ineffective that is, but it’s just funny.

I haven’t seen a YouTube ad on my phone since about 2021, thanks to the magic of Vanced and later ReVanced. Sounds like a skill issue on your end ngl

I have. A US dollar is worth about 1.5 Australian dollars. If you don’t care about accuracy and just want an easy conversion you can double the price. I don’t usually convert currencies into Australian dollars, rather put the approximate conversion next to it. But I definitely have adapted to understanding and interpreting what the yanks say

Recently I’ve been falling asleep to ThioJoe. They do occasionally have minor sound effects, but I can ignore those. He maintains a consistent tone throughout
