The 7.62x51 NATO round used in AR-10/LR-308 pattern rifles isn't the same as the common 7.62x39 used in AK-47 pattern rifles. But I'm sure getting NATO ammo isn't exactly hard for them right now.

The best feedback I ever got on an assignment in grad school was "wow, your homework looks like a textbook!"

It may not always be correct, but it's always pretty!

They usually don't have a choice. They know this stuff is bad, but they need it to demonstrate compliance with XYZ framework so they can fill out the marketing copy so sales can land a contract with some big customer that wants to know why $competitor has better security than you.

Holy shit, I remember now.

The archive link to the AI article is hilarious. It's neither chronological order nor canonical order. It's not even a comprehensive list, a bunch of stuff is missing. It's just bullet points of some star wars media vaguely ordered.

Can't wait for search results to become even more poisoned by this useless garbage!

I used to self host email and got sick of my emails never getting through. Email is federated in theory, but pretty centralized in practice. Paying for Proton was definitely worth it.

Yep. I want to federate and block who I want to federate and block. Large instance admins need to make compromises for practical reasons, but I don't. My personal instance has no boards, so I don't have to deal with problematic users from other instances either. If an instance is particularly awful, I can just not visit them until I have time to switch to my admin account and defederate it, there's no urgency.

Plus, I thought it would be easier to get my friends to switch if they had an admin they could literally call if they ran into problems.

One character is explicitly underage and sexually assaulted in game. Another is the "she died young and is a ghost so she just LOOKS young but she's actually way older" trope.

If an artist's vision is sexualized children, maybe that artist needs an eye exam.

Knowledge is ordering a martini because you want gin. Wisdom is specifying a "gin martini" to the bartender.

Wtf why. There's no karma on lemmy to farm!

Because we have surrendered so much control of our lives to these companies we can hardly envision an alternative.
