  • Is coreboot doing something like this?

  • Oh sweet, my old Empire Earth box!
  • I keep the C&C Tiberian sun and the original Far Cry box for nostalgia.

  • You know that this answer will be mashed into an "AI" training set somewhere.

  • Is it just me or do Lemmy communities tend to skew left wing? Why might this be?
  • Maybe because it was originally developed as a platform to discuss Marxism and Leninism?

  • Icaridine or IR3535 are so much better than DEET.

  • Men with 'toxic masculinity' are more likely to make sexual advances without consent, study finds
  • This is literally one example scenario used by the researchers.

    I think in the example I would have asked, "Are you OK?"

    (then she says no, before she proceeds to vomit into my bed or something like this ;-))

  • You just spent an evening out with Alyssa, a girl you think is really attractive. You’ve been dating her for several weeks. You think Alyssa looks really sexy. She’s wearing a short skirt and a blouse that shows her cleavage. You know that Alyssa has had casual sex with several guys since she’s been in college. Although you haven’t had sex with Alyssa, you’re really hoping you’ll get the chance to tonight. During your date, both of you had several alcoholic drinks. After your outing, the two of you go back to your place where you have some privacy. After chatting for a while, you and Alyssa start kissing. After a few minutes of making-out you’re feeling really turned on, so you start to reach under Alyssa’s shirt. Alyssa stops responding but doesn’t resist you in any way.

  • "there is little incentive not to use it"
  • And it is even more environmental friendly ;-)

  • Both examples you mentioned were by itself overhyped.

  • Bump stock ruling could trigger booming rapid-fire marketplace [Clayton Vickers | 05/21/24 | The Hill]
  • The author thinks that the NFA of 1934 somehow banned machine guns. That is wrong. The author also things that the 1986 Hughes amendment was banning existing machine guns. That is wrong.

  • Teen rapper accidentally kills himself on social media video after pointing gun at his head and pulling trigger
  • No, what you say is not correct. You probably think about military service rifles only. But you can buy (and stash a lot of) ammunition as a civilian. The seller only had to make some basic background checks. I think recently, they made it a bit harder and you have also to prove you own the corresponding firearm?

  • It definitely *was* a good idea though
  • Not when you mix it with nitroglycerin.

  • An AI startup made a hyperrealistic deepfake of me that’s so good it’s scary
  • Why should I trust the authenticity of your signning key? Solution 1: web of trust like PGP. Impossible with foreign content. Solution 2: Trusted Certificate authorities (private/ state/ UN) Solution 3: a block chain (scaling problems)

    Hike above Lake Lucern

    A hike I made a few weeks back. I went up to the mountain with a very small cable car, then I hiked further up through the forest towards the highest (green) area. On the way back I had a snack in the mountain restaurant. The best thing was to relax at the small mountain lake before heading back. The location is called Seelisberg and is close to Lake Lucerne in Switzerland.
