wood for sheep?

I almost missed this.

I’ll just quote myself from my last game where I had a monopoly on the sheep…

YOU DARE COME TO THE MASTER SHEPHERD WITHOUT A TITHE IN HAND?

I’ve got about 6 xPis scattered round my flat - is there anything worth doing with them or should I just bin them?

Fuck, if you can’t figure out what to do with them, give them to me and I will! There’s so many fun art projects you can get up to with Pis.

Privacy Concerns on Lemmy: A Call for More User Control (github.com)

I’ve been grappling with a concern that I believe many of us share: the lack of privacy controls on Lemmy. As it stands, our profiles are public, and all our posts and comments are visible to anyone who cares to look. I don’t even care about privacy all that much, but this level of transparency feels to me akin to sharing my...

No! How dare you suggest something so absurd!

I don’t care how little money they have and how few developers they have, they need to bring a feature-set that is on par with corporations with billions of dollars at their disposal and thousands of developers! Fuck that, they need to even do better than those companies on the privacy issue!

Big fat /S

If Donald Trump wins the Presidency illegitimately, will you say the same of US citizens?

So, in a country where the elections are clearly a sham, and have been for decades, it’s the people’s fault, is that what you’re saying?

I couldn’t roll my eyes at this bullshit any harder.

It’s also punishing the citizens of Russia for the crimes of its government.

Denying their participation in culture is a plan doomed to fail, much like prohibition.

A fan of Zizek film analysis? That’s definitely one of his positions, related to how much post-apocalyptic media still portrays capitalism in practice post-apocalypse.

I agree, but it’s definitely marketed as a gaming console of a sort, and not really marketed as a full-fledged PC.

So, imho, that technically skewers the numbers a bit, as it’s not a “desktop” in the traditional sense.

I mean, I’m still not calling 2023 the “Year of the Linux Desktop.” I’m calling it the “Year of the Portable Linux Gaming Console.”

The growth in percentage in Linux in Steam metrics is almost entirely because the Steam Deck.

current copyright laws make zero sense if you actually stop and think about it for any amount of time.

So true.

Despite being very grateful for what this job has done for me and my family, I’m simply not strong enough to keep doing this if it means having to just accept this kind and amount of distress. Perhaps that makes me weak, but I’ve rarely ever really thought otherwise.

I agree with Jocat, this isn’t a sign of weakness.

Can we drop this “gotta be strong” shit when people are literally dealing with thousands of random abusive asshats never leaving them be?

Family is more important than money.

A lesson sadly so many will never learn.

It is very important that you all know that Sarah Silverman made out with Tim Russ during the time she was on Voyager. (www.cinemablend.com)

I kissed him [Robert Duncan McNeill] at the end of the episode, and he was standing on an apple box because God forbid you’re the same height as the girl. And then, I made out with him [Tim Russ] in real life....

I grew up on Dr. Katz.

Due to that, Laura will always have a special place in my heart over Sarah.

My principle is I don’t hang out in fucking Nazi spaces.

Like, I wouldn’t go to a bar that advertised itself as a Nazi bar, and I wouldn’t upload my content to a site like this, that has enough Nazis on it that they’re in the recommended videos for a fucking Louis Rossman video.

If Louis is happy hanging out at Nazi bars, that’s on him and you can hardly hang that on “principles.”

And yet the top suggested videos were about how the Crusades were justified and how cop shootings are justified.

I would think if the largest community was programmers, those kind of videos would be suggested, not this shit.

Top suggested videos sadly speaks otherwise about the people on this site.

Unfortunately, they probably have seen outside exactly how you mean it, they’re probably dealing with similar issues, and like you, they’re just at work, going through the motions, trying to get through the day, hoping to have a slice of it left over for themselves at the end.

That’s the most insidious part of it, it affects so many of us that none of us has the time, patience, or effort to give others anymore.

Not all VPNs are equal. Also, even with a good VPN, you still can have your real area leaking via your Real Time Clock.

Honestly, just pirating is a lot fucking easier than paying for attempts at multiple VPNs just to see if I can make an account at the BBC and watch iPlayer. I’ve failed at that more times than I’ve succeeded.

Finally, VPNs are only legal in the sense that the only thing the BBC can do is… deny you access to their content. Similar to Youtube and Ad Blockers. It’s their content, they own it, and it’s fair game for them to try to make people pay for it. Since the BBC is publicly funded, that means me making a BBC account to watch iPlayer via a VPN is probably breaking their “Terms of Service” which means they are legally allowed to remove my account at any time. Because I am effectively using the BBC without paying for it if I use a VPN.

It’s legal, but it’s still a TOS violation which can get you banned by a lot of services.
