  • A number of possibilities

    1. trolling and sealioning
    2. Bots or account farming
    3. People who are mentally unwell
    4. People who don't know the difference between generating content and engagement, and spam
    5. Astroturfing and propaganda

    Etc

    Lemmy and the fediverse represent a way to get away from corporate controlled social media interest but is at the same time lacking in the resources to combat large scale operations for influence, propaganda and attacks

  • 4/20

  • People routinely use worse options because of familiarity

  • Perhaps get a cheap / older DSLR or point and shoot. They're pretty cheap for older ones and you can still get decent quality photos by setting everything to auto. Maybe also take some time afterwards to go through and edit a photo or two with her

    Places you can look for cameras are: ebay, craisgslist, (shop)goodwill, facebook marketplace, estate/garage sales, etc

  • At some point I started skipping classes and just read the textbook + lecture slides to study and did about as well (defonitely worse than if id have gone but better than if I hadnt studied) - prob not the most achievable but you might be able to negotiate something witb professors in terms of getting lecture slides or chapters of the textbook and hang out in a library or cafe to reduce the amount of travel

  • Text below was shopped in and the whole photo got blurred/ compressed at some point before the ms13 was shopped in

  • Plausible deniability to not get sued by not themselves making the claim but instead quoting the victim. A lack of integrity from the editors.

  • Ships with windows or blank disk (selectable). Ubuntu/mint/fedora are officially supported but you could install other distros like arch

  • Looks like a keygen music video

  • Usb C has pins for both 3.x/4 and separate ones for usb 2.0. Many devices just hook up the 2.0 lines and call it a day, because parts that can actually handle 3.0+ are rare and expensive.

    Companies making USB capable parts typically contract out or buy the section of their chip which handles USB or other things like ethernet (Intellectual property cores or IP core) already designed as a drop in part of the semiconductor.. This usually is under some form of contract / nda + they pay a big fee, so the parts are expensive and documentation can be tough to acquire without yourself signing NDA and being a company looking to use their ICs.

    USB 2.0 is much simpler and cheaper to deal with and cant handle as much bandwidth, but thats typically acceptable for simple electronics.

  • 1-40ms - good

    40-70 - less good but playable

    70-100 - can have affects depending on the game

    100-150 - not great

    150+ - unplayable

  • That was potassium nitrate which is typically as fertilizer but is a potent oxidizer and can be used for rockets, explosives, and gunpowder/black powder

    The orange smoke at the start might just be from the fire illuminating the smoke, but could also something more toxic, such as hydrazine (used in hypergolic rockets and older weapons)

  • These people lie with a straight face about things they don't understand

  • Having been on a jury,

    People are dumb and have no empathy

  • Its more of a powerpoint presentation than a show

  • Certain TLD (e.g. .com, .net, .xyz) will cost a different amount per year to register. I use porkbun as well. A .com or .net may be $12.50+ per year. The cheapest domain is 9 numbers and .xyz from porkbun at 1.22/yr (e.g 123456789.xyz) but isnt as memorable. I use one of those just for external access otg with a cron script for updating the dns entries.

    Also remember to hide the whois info because you will immediately start getting calls from scammers that scrape the phone number and call you telling you that you need to pay them to finish setting things up

    Generic process is to register the domain, set up the DNS entries to point to your server IP, and if theres any dynamic DNS setup in your software, to enter the api key from your registrar and the domain so it can update it if your IP ever changes.
