Have you not read the relevant chapters in The Wealth of Nations?

If he meets enough Billie Eilishes he can finally have enough copper to sell and buy a house.

You said no weapons, but no mention of armor.

Wrap me in some chain mail or kevlar or whatever, and set me loose. I will rain down an ungodly firestorm upon any number of squirrels. They're gonna have to call the United Nations and get a binding resolution to keep me from destroying them. I will massacre them. I will fuck them up.

Its niches are nowhere near as strong as reddit though. The only reason I can't ditch reddit is small hobby subs and stuff like that. Their alternatives on lemmy are just not good enough, because of a hideous combination of lack of users and fragmentation.

Wait, don't Bluetooth devices randomize their macs like wifi to hide their identities from unpaired devices?

That doesn't sound right. 124ml of olive oil will probably do funny things to your shit and make you feel weird, but I very much doubt it'll kill you unless you inject it straight into your aorta.

It's a list of words for each letter in the English alphabet so they they can be spelled unambiguously over the radio.

Can't have been a good week to quit sniffing glue.

Erdoğan had been in prison and had a political ban.

In Turkey a political ban means you can't get elected, but it does not stop you from being the leader of a political party. In the 2002 elections Erdoğan was very much the face of the party and the campaign. He was the man. But he wasn't allowed to run for PM, so the party ran with a proxy instead. That proxy PM served only long enough to lift Erdoğan's ban and do some fucked up retroactive election bullshittery to get Erdoğan officially elected as a representative in the parliament months after the general elections. The main opposition, in their infinite wisdom, helped them cook up a bullshit reason to do a repeat of the last general election in a small town, and allowed Erdoğan to run in place of another rep that had been in those same ballots earlier. The proxy PM then resigned and left his seat to Erdoğan, who was now an officially elected representative.

 

Hello,

I've just recently unpacked my new Dell P3421W monitor. I was like 80% sure there would be no Linux support for the proprietary piece of software that manages the monitor's features, because that sorta stuff is hardly ever built for Linux for some fucked up reason, but I figured I could use my macbook (for which there actually is support) or the monitor's own nipple menu to do stuff. Turns out the macbook version does not work properly on Apple silicon, and the nipple menu doesn't have all the things.

I know it's a long shot, since google hasn't helped much, but would anyone here know if there's a way to go about it? Maybe there are existing tools?
