Isn’t that what ‘Woke’ always was?

A magic word with a shapeshifting definition, mostly for the nazis to throw at things and people they don’t like.

The opposite of “cow steak”

Eh, pedoisland is too conservative.

Make it be called Pedo Land.

Anything that requires remuxing multiple times pretty much requires lossless compression. Else it’d become like screenshots of memes because the compression adds up.

That being said, last time I was working with professional audio people, they still preferred WAW as their intermediary format.

If we’re doing a find-and-replace of “Americans” with “USians”, the result is “Brainwashed USians”.

So, unless you consider yourself brainwashed, you weren’t included.

China builds world’s first 20GW microwave

For some reason it took me at least 5 reads to notice the word weapon in the title properly.

Seeing the spinning wheel loading screen makes me cry. Not because it lasts long, but because it isn’t smooth!

Innovation is good. That being said, slapping “AI”, “Smart” or more pixels is the opposite of innovation. Innovation is something new, out of the box. 1080p > 4k > 8k is logical progression.

tl;dr rust yt-dlp frontend in a flatpak for some reason

This is why we can’t have nice things.

The community Vocal members thereof, instead of seeing genuine effort as something praiseworthy always find the worst stupid angle to belittle well-meaning people from.

most of the crops from his sector used to be exported to Asian countries, but mentions the “logistical problem against the Houthis”

Who’d have thought war was bad for business (at least for those not in the war profiteering industry)?

The illegal killing of an immigrant

There, slightly fixed.

Between a choice of Hitler and business as usual, might as well throw your vote away and vote both ways!

Britain is clearly speedrunning becoming Airstrip one

Honestly, this idea has me pretty mortified as well. Just seeing ”rm -rf /” as part of a string sends chills down my spine.

Granted, any reasons or explanations to cause a string being cut short to this godforsaken form and accidentally run is extremely unlikely, but a valid theoretical possibility: I can easily imagine someone mistyping the first letter after root and, wishing to delete it, pressing Backspace while simultaneously accidentally grazing the Enter key.

Sure, the chances of it happening are about the same as a gun user accidentally dropping their gun, clumsily catching it in the air and accidentally shooting someone right in between the eyes as a result.

The licence over 100 pages long, with deliberately convoluted language no one ever expects you to read. Some services even block you from accepting if you haven’t scrolled to the end, but then most give a “Skip to bottom” button!

And since most EULAs are not grounded in reality and as such unworkable, they’re pretty much just a scare tactic.

Do you think US’ians don’t think the US is “America”?

I think non-US Americans are already used to it.

It’s easier to screw over consumers than businesses.

Busunesses like to complain. They have long-term contracts. They have a lot of purchase power. They’re more likely tp swotch to a competitor. When they threaten, they’re more likely to go through with the threats since they have both money to burn and employees to blackmail with pay cuts.

Among other things.

There’s a lot of consumers, so those that do jump ship usually don’t cause a big dent in profits when they do. Consumers are also less likely to jump ship in the furst place since they have only their extended family and their family lawyer to look out for them (if). They usually have “bigger” problems than the electricity bill: car payments, mortgages, school bills, you name it.

Again, among other things.

It’s probably due to legal requirements. It’d be unisex if it could, but if not, pick a random gender for the bathroom to identify as. Pretty ironic.

Bee if you want to get stung, bird if you want to get shat on.

Either way, you’re fucked.

And here I thought it was almost at boiling point!
