  • I’ll just invent my own internet, with blackjack and hookers!It’ll be called the sinternet and all the protocols will be the same, but prefixed with “s” so laws targeting the internet can be ignored. It’ll be the lazy persons dark web.

  • Children who grew up teaching themselves because nobody had time to teach them often become adults who are extraordinarily competent and quietly resentful

    Jump

  • I have been asked on more than one occasion by folks who have heard enough of my story to know what I’ve come through how I managed to come through it, and my response is steadfastly: “Because I had to.”

    There’s no great secret. No deep well of reserves. You just keep going.It’s not exactly healthy, nor does it make one the most happy person. You unlearn what you can, when you can, or try to, anyway.

  • Grew up teaching myself, except that my childhood was traumatic. Narcissists, drug users, abandonment, etc. Grew up expecting harm from others unless I gave them what they want. Also highly sensitive to the idea of fairness and perceived rejection (neurodivergence or trauma responses).

    Service top. In control, but doing what others want. Needs reassurance and an expression of desire while in control of other people.Partner selection is a pain in the ass.

  • Senators Launch New Effort to Ban Federal Elected Officials Profiting from Prediction Markets

    Jump

  • Until I saw your comment, my (flippant) response to the person you replied was going to be “Because Congress hasn’t figured out how to use Polymarket.”

    Which is a far less eloquent corollary to your comment.

  • They did read my memoirs!

  • Cervical cancer rates higher in states with low HPV vaccination rates

    Jump

  • It also causes ass cancer, dick cancer, and vulvular cancer!

    In my research, I’ve found that most humans have at least one of the following: Mouth, ass, uterus, vulva, or dick. Many of them have 3 (or more!) of those things. A special few have collected the whole set!

    Definitely a vaccine worth getting. If your doctor tells you that you’re too old, tell them their knowledge is too old. More importantly, ask them to note in your chart that they have refused preventative medicine against your wishes.

  • US military launches anti-drug trafficking operation in Ecuador

    Jump

  • Ah, fuck. I read an article earlier that painted it as an ask for help from Ecuador without the context of the leadership.

    I thought “Okay, fair play. I feel weird about it, but I can’t be a geopolitical expert in all things, so I’ll try not to automatically assume it’s bad.”

    But… needle solidly swayed.

  • Jurassic Park palaeontologist parts ways with university after Epstein emails

    Jump

  • Horner also said Epstein made a $10,000 donation for his research and that he visited the ranch a second time in 2016 with a graduate student "as part of a geology tour".

    Has anyone heard from this student? I would not trust a word of his version of the narrative.

  • Dear Faith II

    Jump

  • A friend once received an email riddled with misspellings and grammatical errors from her boss that critiqued her (appropriate) use of exclamation points. Specifically, that appearing cheerful was not professional.

    Some people just like to be miserable.

  • Yup. Apparently the Clintons testified in front of Congress yesterday regarding the Epstein files. That’s not high on the list headlines today.

  • Kansas informs trans residents their driver’s licenses become invalid on Thursday

  • In same camp of supporting the sentiment, I played this out in my head.

    Okay, but what if they’re open carrying a large gun?[Bad outcome]

    Okay, what if they open carry and have a body camera (that they turn off while in the restroom, obviously)?[Bad outcome and ignored by media - bad outcome]

    Okay, what if there’s a group that’s open carrying and have body cameras?[Bitch, did you just determine they had to form a militia to go to the bathroom away from home? Sigh.]

    I don’t know the solution, other than for people to mind their own fucking business.

  • I’m late to this train, but I recently got into Dimension 20, and the GM (Brennan Lee Mulligan) has some incredible characters. Here’s a fitting quote from one of them:

    Laws are a threat made by the dominant socioeconomic ethnic group in a given nation. It’s just the promise of violence that’s enacted, and the police are basically an occupying army, you know what I mean?Video source (YouTube short - sorry)

  • Amazon BUSTED for Widespread Scheme to Inflate Prices Across the Economy— Amazon, its vendors, and competing retailers are price fixing, hiking up prices for consumer products, making Amazon richer

    Jump

  • Very probable. I was also not the most economically secure back then. I was trying to save money on a $20 can opener!

  • Can openers is what did it for me.

    In 2015 I needed a new manual can opener. The local big-box stores had two basic styles. A cheap, all metal one that was just stamped from a single sheet, and a more expensive one with better handles.The more expensive one had previously rusted and began to look nasty within a few years.Amazon had a bunch of different styles at less than the price point of the more expensive one.

    I bought one. It was fine. I didn’t love the operation. It cut the whole top off from the side, rather than from the top in a downwards cut. The sharp edges were on the can rather than on the lid. It would catch the paper labels and sometimes wad them up into the can while you cut. Cans with no air space would leak when opened.

    Anyway. Replaced it in 2019. Amazon still had a broad selection, but all except for obvious crap was as expensive as the local big box store’s expensive option. Wound up going to a smaller local(ish) bulk foods store and bought a cheapo restaurant one for less than Amazon’s/the big box store’s similar offerings. Minimal rusting to date.

  • lemmy is my stream of consciousness diary and the posts my entries

  • A long time ago, someone said something really useful to me about oversharing online:“I would like to fuck you, but I’m afraid you’ll write about it on your LiveJournal.”

    And on that day, I became a lot more selective about what I shared online. At least when it relates to others. I’ll tell you all about my childhood trauma.

  • It’s also a few days into Ramadan, a holiday where Muslims fast while the sun is up. (It lasts approximately from fat Tuesday to Easter.)So, you know, if you want to fuck up someone’s day, make ‘em work extra hard while hangry.

    (Which is not necessarily true. IIRC, much of the religious understanding and forgiveness in Islam is about intent. They might be cool with breaking a fast when facing an existential threat. But it’s Iran, sooo…)

  • …. Oh!

    You just explained a question I had.I couldn’t figure out why a pin was considered more secure.

    In my reasoning: How is a PIN (potentially numeric only), changed 1x a year, safer than a password (3 of 4: Alpha, Mixed case, numeric, special chars), changed 4x a year.

    The answer, as you explained, is scope of trust. Machine only vs tenant-wide. That makes sense.
