So potentially a life sentence in a mental facility. That’s far better than life in a federal prison. Glad the authorities had the sense to not just throw this kid in the slammer.

There’s only one example I can think of where this isnt the case. I don’t remember the whole story but I saw a YT video about this kid who got arrested for hacking Rockstar games. He ended up getting arrested and while in federal custody in some hotel room, he successfully hacked them again with a fucking amazon fire stick. After that he told the judge that we had no intention of stopping. Being under the age of 18, I don’t think he really had any harsh consequences but good for him, that legend.

Edit: so he was 18 during the second hack. And GOT A LIFE FUCKING SENTENCE?!?!?!

Granted this isnt a “Purchase,” but I married my wife. After that first sample, I was hooked and knew I wanted the whole woman forever. 6 years later, I got my best friend and gal of my dreams everyday.

Going after that anger dollar, I see. Big market.

It’s still crazy to me that this is the same program I used to browse CS zombie mod servers. There was no real store to speak of then.

I did exactly the same. I found lemmy through a reddit post about alternatives to Reddit. And after 13 years as a daily reddit user, once RIF went down, I haven’t gone back.

I do wish we’d get more traffic with the science communities but I’ve still noticed slow and steady growth since then.

“Ow, My Balls” is a claaaassic.

711 was a part-time job.

I’ve never been stung by a bee either! I’ve had a wasp get me a few times but bees and I have a unspoken truce, I guess. We have carpender bees all around our house and my wife hates them but I enjoy watching them have those valiant mid-air dog fights. Those little bastards can scrap. They never bother or dive bomb me but sometimes they get curious and kinda hover around me, presumably doing a bee’s version of a vibe check. I dont run or swat at them and they just peace out after maybe 15-20 seconds and then ignore me next time Im outside in “their” territory. … My wife on the other hand, swats, screams and runs from them and they’ll straight up go after her. She clearly does not pass the vibe check. It’s wild.
