  • this was never the creepy van. hippy vans often looked like that. (but maybe creepy refers to the guy here idk)

  • lasers are usually used from the ground, but if you must use it on a jet, i would suggest chemical lasers. however, it can blind someone you can't see, many kilometers away. it's dangerous to shoot lasers from above

  • As a European, I have to say that the libs in this example are right, because the US voting system is completely fucked with the electoral college, winner-takes-all and all that gerrymandering (and soon more).

    So they either have to vote dem (however bad their candidate is) and then unfuck it, so they can do a real election afterwards, or violently install a leftist government and proper democracy.

  • depending on weather and distance, lasers can be a cheap solution

  • So that's where they draw the line 😆

  • This reminds me of that Simple Sabotage Field Manual the CIA declassified. It containes things like:

    Haggle over precise wordings of communications, minutes, resolutions.

    ... to interfere with organizations and production.

  • those cables are well managed

  • Der eigentliche Skandal ist doch, dass die Polizei schon eine Datenbank aller Bürger zu haben scheint und diese hier bloß aktualisiert wird. Anderenfalls bräuchte sie ja nur die Daten von wenigen erfassten Personen, statt aller.

  • that depends on what you think is honest. maybe the ppl think repeating this discussion again is boring and they dislike it. don't take it personally. you are not your content.

    btw mastodon and bluesky don't have downvotes. i think ppl who are here instead on those, decided this way is better. i for one left mastodon in favor of lemmy.

  • "only upvotes" don't help as much, because you get a gap where ppl don't like it. you can only use ppl who like it to sort, which may be much less than ppl who dislike it.

    also, once downvoted from many ppl, fewer ppl see the content and it gets less downvotes.

    actually downvotes give less "power to aasholes", because otherwise ppl can post their evil shit like on xitter and they and the algorithm assume silence=agreement, even though agreeing takes only one tap while disagreeing requires writing a comment. this emboldens the "assholes". they get little to no feedback ppl don't like it. on top of it, there are ways/algos to sort by number of comments. so if ppl actually dislike it so much to write a comment, it pushes the bad post up on these rankings, shoving the horrible stuff in even more ppls faces.

  • don't forget that downvotes mostly help with sorting. they don't mean "this is wrong". they mean the reader didn't like it and it should be sorted further down or even start collapsed. it can just be a highly unpopular or disgusting truth ppl want to swipe under the rug. it can also be totally irrelevant or link/quote sites ppl don't like and want to reduce traffic to or be forgotten (reddit, xitter, fb come to mind)

    it's just a quick feedback that can help the community.

  • neither face scan, ID nor age restricted servers can fix that.

    the bad guys can even make a server specifically for kids to get them on there while most adults, who could have noticed coincidentally, would then use an adult server and can't notice any more.

  • yeah, doesn't say she accepted the offer. reads like she finds it odd/creepy
