IANAL but I’m 90% sure that’s highly illegal even in the UK nowadays, so I at the very least wouldn’t accept the piece lest I get nailed for the crime.

Assuming it’s an actual real piece of the pyramid, like they chipped it off the real structure or something. If they bought it from, say, a street vendor in Egypt then it’s most likely fake in which case there would be no problems.

People who have inverter microwaves, do they actually heat food more evenly or is it just marketing buzz?

I don’t think they would enslave humanity so much as have no regard for us. For example, when we construct a skyscraper, do we care about all the ant nests we’re destroying? Each of those is a civilization, but we certainly don’t think of them as such.

At some point the Linux kernel will be patched to detect and terminate forking attacks, and sadly all these memes will be dead.

And you just know that this is the type of restaurant to throw out still edible food in a dumpster and then call the cops when starving people try to take stuff from the dumpster.

I don’t associate this with any particular city, but with the rich neighbourhoods in every city, particularly the recently rich neighbourhoods built from gentrification and forcing the existing poor residents out. An upscale “urban eatery” is a sure sign that the neighbourhood is destroyed.

I suspect it’s also so the rich assholes can pretend to be in touch with society by occasionally “getting the poor people eating experience” (at a premium of course). They emulate classic burger joints and diners while being ten times more expensive with none of the charm.

Respectfully but strongly disagree. At its very core, math is based on logic which would be valid even without the existence of us or the universe. Things like “if a is false, and b is false, then the conditions a and b and a or b must both also be false; but if a is true and b is false, then the condition of a and b is still false but a or b is true.” Statements like that are what the simplest axioms are derived from, and everything else in math in turn. For example, from the previous statements one can derive that “if a is false and b is false, then both b and c and a and c must also be false regardless of the value of c; but if b or c is true and we know that b is false, then c must be true.” Doesn’t take a god to figure that out, it just is. Math tells you nothing about any sort of higher power or creator, nor does it prove the absence of a higher power or creator.

Also, math is fundamentally incomplete and never will be complete.

“Why is everyone on Lemmy so judgemental?”

Also people on Lemmy: makes up an entire hypothetical scenario about a literal child and their parents that they know nothing about and judges them for it.

I’ve definitely learned how exploitative it is to force people in terrible life situations, many suffering from mental illness and/or some sort of past trauma or are just in a bad spot all around, to broadcast their lives for all to see and gawk at.

Oh you have a severe eating disorder that is extremely dangerous to your health? What a Freaky Eater you are! You also clearly have your Strange Addiction so we can exploit you twice for the same effort! Oh you’re not even living paycheck to paycheck and are dumpster diving behind the grocery store to feed your family? We got an Extreme Cheapskate over here!

Most likely their backup generators only power the absolutely critical equipment and everything else still goes down when the power goes off.

Honestly this just seems like the best way to have both sides of the relevant conversation hate you. The urbanists will hate you because you bought a Cybertruck which exemplifies all the problems with large cars in urban areas and car dependency in general, not to mention techbro dependency. And the truck people will hate you because you bought a liberal socialist soy boy electric truck instead of a noble, God-anointed, by your bootstraps diesel truck.

Wouldn’t be surprised if someone comes back to the parking lot to see a line of alternating rednecks and railfans all taking turns keying their truck.

Similar concept to the discrepancy in the pictures of food in a restaurant menu vs what you’re actually served.

Can one recover from an accidental rm -rf of system directories by copying those files back in from a backup?

Well I’ve joined the “accidentally trashing your system with rm -rf” club! Luckily I didn’t delete my home directory with all the things I care about, but I did delete /boot and /usr, and maybe /var (long story, boils down to me trying to delete non-system directories named those but reflexively adding the slash in front...

I’m running Fedora 39 KDE. I think I’m going to see what the file metadata of my other Fedora systems look like and try to replicate that. Worst case I just reinstall. At this point I’m a little curious how the system will react.

Thank you! Regardless of the outcome I will update the main post with my findings in hopes giving anyone else in the same position some more info.

You need to put your foot down demand that they speak English to you and abuse them if they refuse. Most people don’t know this, but it’s hazing ritual in a lot of countries for locals to mess with tourists by speaking made up languages to them, they actually all know English, because that’s the only actual human language that exists.

Does `cp -v` print out the file name when it starts copying it or when it's done?

So if I had a cp -v operation fail, is the last file name it printed out the last successful file copy, or is it the failed partially copied file? If you had to ensure all files are copied correctly without overwriting anything, would deleting the last filename that was printed from the destination folder delete the partially...

Sorry that’s not allowed either. Read the other sticker:

Likely because there aren’t a lot of herbs and spices where it’s cold and fermentation adds complexity to the flavour.

Honestly we deserve it. Orcas are considered sapient and on par with human intelligence by many experts, and one could argue we’re colonizing them.
