DEXP microwave, it just runs down normally, no conversion happens

A good charity can save a dozen lives with a 100k donation. It would take a few million button pushes until well-being of the global poorest gets so good that the cost of saving one life rises to 100k and you are no longer morally obligated to press.

Fun fact: it is scientifically proven that messy beds, thanks to more exposure to UV light and better distribution of that exposure per various points of surface, have lower populations of harmful microorganisms and are better for your health.

Tankie is a pejorative for those who defend socialist states.

Never heard it used against democratic socialists who acknowledged mistakes of the past.

The “authoritarian” part doesn’t really make any sense, considering the Marxist analysis of authority is that what matters most is which class has the authority of the state.

So you believe there were no authoritarian socialist states in history? Ones that silenced critics, shot protesters, censored press and didn’t have competitive elections? Lol.

Either way, the ethnic cleansing of the Donbass region was widely reported even by western organizations until 2022, then this was all wiped away and minimized.

This war killed almost half a million people already on all sides combined (if we believe Russian MoD, this number way exceeds a million). Do you think the “ethnic cleansing” would kill this much in a thousand years? According to DPR-operated media, only 17 people died in last years before 2022 on Donbas, most from uncleaned minefields.

Could just write “18 Mm from home”.

I live in a European country where cursive never fell out of use (in fact, I believe here your exam papers will not be accepted if you write them in anything but cursive). All I know about cursive state in America is that it was phased out, and now seems to be returning.

FFMPEG in the command line generally has permission to access the entire non-sudo filesystem and delete files.

How does a method being traditional make it more ethical? Aren’t more ethical methods of hunting about minimising agony of an animal when killed using all available technology? So a firearm shot would be more ethical than slow-to-kill arrow?

You made it about communism by complaining about tankies

From Wikipedia:

Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support or defend acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.

Not about communism as a political philosophy.

You are covering up the ethnic cleansing committed by Kiev against the Donbass region

This is a common myth created by Russian propaganda. I invite you to check it for yourself. Open an official website of any town that was part of Ukraine before 2022 and had Russian majority in population. Check publications before 2022. You’ll see an abundant use of Russian language and culture. Even Zelenski, with Russian being his first language, often spoke it in political campaigns.

Now many of these towns are ghost towns due to shelling.

I’m sorry, but that’s not about pro-communism and anti-communism. You know Russia is no longer a communist country, right? That’s about pro-war and anti-war. Blaming Ukraine for the start of the war and following genocide (or denying that genocide happening) is one of the most absurd and dangerous fakes created by Russian propaganda and it deserves to be challenged.

The full plus-code is actually 8 characters before the plus and 2–3 after. Usually you only need 4 to get within one city. Just like with phone numbers, where the first geographical part is often omitted.

That’s quite a common thing on lemmy.ml servers. Glad their hole started being recommended to people in other communities to average reactions.

There is a separate project, OpenArealMap, for Free as in Freedom areal/satellite images. Most useful images are proprietary though. Some, like Bing, allow limited usage of their images for improving OSM, some don’t.

People in this article were arrested for trying to break a barrier and throwing projectiles. It’s really hard to get arrested in the US for speech alone. As a person from an actual authoritarian county, sorry, you don’t really get to play the victim here.

I remember stumbling upon this post as one of the first when sorting this community by some normal criteria. A month old is not too old, back on Reddit I once responded to a comment 9 to 10 years old, posted back when I was a child, and the author still responded.

General-purpose AI isn’t able to function reliably without a human driving it.

Right now it isn’t. But it’s getting more reliable with time, and a day may come when it will make less mistakes than humans do. And there will be no need for a human in the loop.
