He is turning the Whitehouse into Versailles

Yet another good reason to bring back the guillotine

First they came for the Mexicans, I just cracked open a bud light...

Yeah musk has actually admitted to it

Esp32 probably doesn't have a bios crash. My bet is a raspberry pi

To be fair to the anonymous profile, he probably comes from a country where he does, in fact, know more about these things than the trade minister who represents him

Yeah I have questions about the legitimacy of this statement

I heard the scrabble champions have a big problem molestation, some say almost as much as the church

It's fuck them or hate fuck them

Since I like facts and nobody answered, the bird is called a bearded reedling or bearded tit

I hear your security concerns but what timeline were you living on?

  • 95 was revolutionary but buggy AF
  • NT I didn't have much to do with
  • 98 was a patch to fix the bugs in 95
  • 98 SE was mostly stable and a decent is, plus USB
  • ME was a piece of shit excuse to something
  • 2000 was decent. XP v1
  • XP finally made a stable os, because it got rid of the shit we dragged in from 95
  • Vista was hot garbage
  • 7 fixed vista an imo was the best is MS ever made
  • 8 was more hot garbage because they lost the mobile war
  • 10 was an apology for 8
  • 11 is shareware / adware

Where did you find safe harbour in this shitshow?

 

This whole situation reminds me of the fable of Sun Tzu and King He Lu's concubines. I've linked a copy of the story, better than my TlDr, but here it is anyway. TlDr; Sun Tzu was tasked with training the kings concubines as soldiers. He gave them instructions, and they refused to carry them out, laughing and not taking it seriously. He then had two of the Kings favourite concubines executed against his wishes. Suddenly they were taking it very seriously and doing the right thing.

It doesn't take much to control a populace. The arrest of Luigi will make people he might have targeted feel safe again. But if they didn't feel safe - ie he was never caught - he might have made real change and the targeted group would start doing the right thing for fear of retribution.

It would have been an interesting alternate timeline.

 

I'll admit I've drifted off Lemmy the last month or so.. content was a bit repetitive and felt like just an echo chamber of the same ideas. I didn't go back to Reddit, Reddit lost me to tiktok it turns out.

Jumped back on now and so many more posts have inspired me to comment. I'm a comment contributor generally but I wasn't feeling it.

Anyway.. just wanted to pop in and say I'm really enjoying it. Not that I was ever going anywhere but this is a great trajectory

 

Not affiliated with these guys, just a fan and this is a great doco. Understand its not the exact target of this community but hopefully those interested will find this interesting as well

 

Was thinking this after a rough landing today

 

Hey, one thing that has confused me a bit about Lemmy is just how bad it seems to be at handling any traffic at all.

Do you have any stats on how many request per second etc you are getting? I saw the thread the other day with your 24cpu server and the graphs and figure if anyone has a bit of a handle on it, if figure this community can work it out.

Like, if its just doing a couple of database reads and (from what i can tell I'm on mobile) just serving a JSON API to a single page JavaScript application, why is it so hard on the server?
