How do you organize your digital stuff?
  • I just use Everything desktop search and let the files fall where they may.

  • Is Lemmy your "main social media app"? If not, which one is it?
  • Just lemmy in a browser for me. Never used facebag or twatter or others besides reddit.

  • If everyone had guaranteed food and shelter, Pornography and prostitution would barely exist.
  • More like, “I want a sandwich but i can’t afford one. I guess I’ll go become a porn actor or a prostitute to earn money"

  • America in 2025? Not if you can help it!
  • Weird premise aside, Kirk's speech at the end about how it "must apply to everyone or it means nothing" is actually pretty stirring, IMHO.

  • Trump/Musk sweepstakes winners are “spokespeople” and not selected by chance
  • So instead of an illegal lottery it's just fraud.

  • Trump sues CBS News for $10bn, claiming Kamala Harris interview was edited
  • I skimmed the complaint. It's (obviously) utter nonsense that will be dismissed with prejudice. But if not, then I look forward to joining the class action against Fox News, et al.

  • What piece of media would you like adapted to another?
  • I want Roland Emmerich to make a movie out of the short story A Pail of Air.

    tl;dr/spoiler: ~20 years ago, a black hole passed through the solar system and captured the Earth, dragging it inexorably away from the Sun. This causes great earthquakes, tsunami, and other immediate civilization-ending catastrophes, but the real disaster comes when the atmosphere freezes and falls like snow to the ground. The original story follows a young boy born after the cataclysm whose chores include collecting buckets of frozen air.

  • Guess the Episode [Medium]
  • You are fully licensed and bonded by the city, aren't you?

  • I'm a reasonably well educated human living on Earth. What's to stop me from replicating starship parts until I can make my own Starfleet?
  • Your replicator is probably too small to replicate larger components, which would be a major inconvenience at best or a showstopper at worst. And industrial replicators are even harder to come by than starships.

    Then there's getting access to the replicator patterns for sensitive or dangerous components. Dilithium chambers, weapons, Mercassium composite for shield generators, etc. are classified by Starfleet.

    Then there are substances that can't be replicated, such as verterium cortenide for the warp coils. I don't think it's explicitly stated that VC can't be replicated, but we know that Voyager had to find some to refit their warp coils, they couldn't just replicate it. Also dilithium.

    And finally, there's antimatter. Building a starship won't do you much good if you don't have gas for the tank. Antimatter does not occur in large quantities in nature, and probably can't be replicated (or at least not safely.) So you'd need some sort of industrial base to produce it, further complicating your plans.

  • Tucker Carlson funded by Russia's RT, Justin Trudeau says
  • I yearn for the simpler days when the worst thing a Republican president might do is tamper with Medicare.

  • Democrats See 103 Percent Increase in Pennsylvania Voters Leaving the Party
  • My intent was to point out how ridiculous the "103% increase" line is, not to suggest the comparison was valid in the first place.

  • Democrats See 103 Percent Increase in Pennsylvania Voters Leaving the Party
  • In other words, it jumped from about 0.5% to 1.5%.

  • Jill Stein 'Would Have to Look' at Pardoning Jan. 6 Rioters
  • If anything the Jan. 6 terrorists have been getting off very lightly.

    I wasn't going to vote for her anyway, but now I have a specific reason.

  • What the heck is this trash shipping with firefox? about:compat
  • Looks like compatibility hacks for various websites.

    Interventions - are deeper modifications to make sites compatible. Firefox may modify certain code used on these sites to enforce compatibility. Each compatibility modification links to the bug on Bugzilla@Mozilla; click on the link to look up information about the underlying issue.

  • Of Biblical Proportions

    An elderly Catholic priest dies one night peacefully in his sleep after a long life of serving God, and finds himself standing at the pearly gates.

    "You were such a pious and holy man in life," began St. Peter, "that as a reward you can make one request of me before leaving behind your worldly cares and entering heaven."

    "Well," says the priest, "I'd like to read the original manuscript of the Bible."

    Even more impressed now than before, St. Peter grants the request and takes the priest to God's own private library, before leaving him to his studies.

    Shortly afterward, the priest lets out an unholy shriek. St. Peter rushes into the library and asks, "what is it? What's wrong?!"

    And through gritted teeth and streams of tears the priest cried out: "Celebrate! It says celebrate, not celibate!"

    TIL Joe Satriani's "Crowd Chant" was meant to be called "Party on the Enterprise"

    It would have included loops of Star Trek sound effects, but Paramount lawyers said no.
