Not even the most popular prophet from an Abrahamic religion. Second rate at best and losing to a war mongering pedophile at that.

Cypher ,

You need to be actively using it at all times and you die

Cypher ,

Allow us to tackle inequality by forcing poor families to buy expensive uniforms from our selected supplier.

Please ignore all our financial links with said supplier.

Cypher ,

Huh? No no the Sisters of Silence are the cool girls club. They boss all over Custodes and see the Big E on the regular.

Cypher ,

for the sun it is the center of gravity.

You mean the galactic center, which in turn orbits a point somewhere in the middle of our local galactic cluster.

Cypher ,

Spez is the most over paid pasty greedy little big boy thats ever lived.

Having done nothing but piss off users, developers and moderators he rakes in an absolute fortune.

I’m not up to speed on US history, which other US Presidents tried to prevent the certification of the election of the President who ousted them?

Cypher ,

Who exactly ousted who? Trump lost, he wasn’t ousted by anybody

.... that's what being ousted is. An encumbant losing an election has been ousted, as in forced out of a role, yes by an election loss.

Cypher ,

we polled LGBTQ+ gamers and found that 1 in 5 identified as LGBTQ+

It really baffles me how it’s so low given their sample and yet they still skewed it.

Then we have examples like BG3 where the overwhelming majority of players made a white half-elf, human or elf Paladin or Fighter and romanced Shadowheart.

Nowhere near 20% of players pursued LGBTQ+ relationships.

British countryside is a ‘racist and colonial’ white space, wildlife charities claim ( archive.ph )

Wildlife and Countryside Link, a charity umbrella group whose members include the RSPCA, WWF and National Trust, made the claim in evidence provided to Parliament on racism and its influence on the natural world....

Cypher ,

I wonder if Wildlife and Countryside Link would find that the countryside in the majority of African nations is “dominated by black people”. Im sure they’d also blame that on post colonialism.

Cypher ,

With how heavily subsidised corn is in the US it would an achievement to fail at turning a profit.

Cypher ,

noone there is learning

Wrong. Dead wrong.

In the email chain subsequent to this exchange Linus even addressed the fact that the contributor would be better off learning about kernel development by focusing on the removal of unnecessary code and clean up.

No one jumps into kernel development knowing everything.

Maintainers need to teach people, not just about the culture and ethos, but about best practices and Linus had taught people constantly.

He has also learned a lot from others. To suggest otherwise is to think that Linus knew everything about kernel development back when he first began Linux development.

Cypher ,

It might be news to you but people from counties that use metric really don’t care what a mile is.

Cypher ,

Sorry mate but all Abrahamic religions contain rules for how to deal with your slaves.

Slavery is absolutely condoned by the bible.

Your whole argument is No True Scotsman.

Cypher ,

… Christians owned slaves. There are rules for owning slaves in the bible.

What aren’t you getting about this?

France ramps up weapons production for Ukraine and says Russia is scrutinizing the West's mettle ( apnews.com )

French manufacturers have reduced the manufacturing times for some of the weapons systems they supply to Ukraine by half or more, as France increasingly switches away from its previous policy of dipping into its own military stocks to support the war effort against Russia’s invasion, France’s defense minister said in an...

Cypher ,

I wonder if the Ukrainian people would rather pay off loans or have their children stolen by Putin.

It’s a mystery for the ages.

Cypher ,

She gets what she deserves.

Damn that seems to be unusual lately.

Cypher ,

Wu’s activity on Twitter declined well before Musk took over ownership.

Cypher ,

It’s a genuine security risk.

Menus aren’t killing the environment either.

Cypher ,

There are clickless exploits and other methods that don't require you to enter information, nevermind that nearly all of these menus have ordering and payment available through them and mimicking websites is fairly simple.

QR codes cannot be trusted just like links from unknown sources cannot be trusted.

Cypher ,

You’re talking about device vulnerabilities that get patched

Patching out zero days takes time.

it’s equally possible to encounter these exploits with plaintext URLs

Yes which is why I clearly stated that following URLs from any unknown sources carries risk.

The difference is that due to menus being a point of payment they have a greater incentive for abuse.

Cypher ,

Why isn't halting a genocide more important than interrupting commercial shipping to you?

Cypher ,
Cypher ,

Yes surely Russia is somehow behind the Israeli decision to genocide Palestinians.

Cypher ,

Yes Israel, the countries illegally aiding genocide and ships heading there will be totally honest about which ships are going to their ports.

Hint: numerous ships with no indication on their manifests have made their way to Israeli ports to deliver weapons.

Cypher ,

Its almost like we were discussing the Houthi, their attacks on shipping and the motivations for those attacks.

Look if you can't follow a simple chain of comments lemmy isn't for you. I suggest childrens books with the age range of 3 to 5 years old for someone of your obvious capabilities.

Cypher ,

feel free to continue picking a fight with a pedantic enginee

I don't pick fight with toddlers who quickly resort to vacuous appeals to authority.

that the ships were in fact related and they had been lying.

Vessels have no reason to publicly tell the truth if that'll get missiles fired at them. I know this is hard to understand for a pea brained engineer but people lie. People are even more likely to lie when money and lives are on the line.

Maybe they didn't cover that in your courses, personally I hope they would, as people often lie about materials used in construction which is why so many regulations exist. I'm sure they aren't required with really smart engineers like you around though!

If your options are to list Israel on your manifest and eat Houthi missiles or lie and not eat missiles which do you choose? Now if you want to shut down shipping to Isreal you have a couple of options, intercept and search every vessel or target them all with missiles.

Given the US and UK naval presence boarding won't be an option. Jeez I wonder what the Houthi will choose.

Cypher ,

Don’t worry AI will be able to tell who is ugly and leave their clothes on

Cypher ,

Surely that would only make sense if America had a history of funding coups, arming terrorists, overthrowing governments and indiscriminately bombing the region right?

Fortunately that’s not the case so the Houthis are clearly just insane. That is a much easier explanation.

Cypher ,

Making everything about trans people doesn’t make your argument look good, it makes you look deranged, obsessed and pathetic.

Not everything is about trans people.

Grow up.

Cypher ,

How well would you say international law is holding up against overwhelming military superiority?

Cypher ,

Yea the US has never done that, especially not to its “allies” so of course none of those “allies” are allowed to do it to the US.

Cypher ,

It is inevitable that Meta will try to kill the fediverse while chasing profits, there is no other possibility in their endgame.

If that is pushing ads into other instances or killing those instances entirely we don’t know yet but it will happen.

It has to because the shareholders must always have more.
