‘clear’ according to the IDF? some other western intelligence org? clear to people with a vested interest in that narrative?

as far as i’ve seen there’s been no trustworthy analysis of it and i doubt there ever will be.

Well, my life would have been measurably better had I never opened that link.

Even if this was as big an issue as you’re making it seem like it is, the answer is never “crawl back to suckle at the capitalist teat.”

Use your damn imagination. We have a much more direct ability to organize ourselves here. Shit, we don’t even need to be restricted by the code of Lemmy. If a large enough group agrees on a specific way to be organized and self-polices, what’s the difference? Rules only exist if people choose to follow them.

You don’t like how it’s working? Do it differently. Talk to people. Convince them your way makes more sense. But it sounds to me more like you just miss that sweet condensed spez milk.

Zero tolerance for intolerance.

Correct me if I’m wrong but worrying about this seems silly to me, especially if you’re not a mac user. In order to be accurate the AI would have to be trained on data from the exact model keyboard you have. So you’d have to know exactly what model keyboard your target uses, and get one yourself, then record and analyze all of the keystrokes. I’m sure at some point in the future some crazy person will create a database of every keyboard known to man and then maybe all bets are off, but right now it just seems like a lot of work for something that can be achieved in other ways. Am I missing something?

I mean… When they’re all the same size and that size is huge and impossible to miss? Yeah. Looking at you Mass Effect.

I can’t tell you how much I love that Denmark has hillbillys who drive hatchbacks and are called fuckin’ Brian as a slur.

Yeah, cut him some slack! Poor guy is an outrage slut. He couldn’t help himself. He probably sprung a raging cocktail wiener as soon as he got through the title.

I work in a public library. While this is fucked up and crazy, I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Librarians do not fuck around and most libraries have very similar strict and thorough rules for how they take books under review books that are extremely difficult for people to fuck with.

For example, at my library if you want to have a book be reviewed to be possibly taken off the shelf, you have to have read it in its entirety. No exceptions. They will literally quiz you on it.

I wish I could remember the specifics but my high school had an extremely ridiculous dress code policy at one point. Mostly targeting girls, of course, but also had weird shit like “no large/long coats.”

What I do remember perfectly though, is that a friend of mine and I, angrily pouring over the details of the stupid dress code, realized that capes were perfectly fine according to the code as written. So we both got huge capes and that was like a whole year of high school.

I used to do this to everyone, all the goddamned time. Then I got diagnosed with ADHD and I become a lot more self-aware of my behaviors.

I worked so fucking hard to learn ways to get ahead of or sidestep my urges. Now when other people do it around me it irritates me way, way more than it ever did before.

I’ve never really enjoyed playing online games. (I don’t like being harassed by strangers. I have enough problems with my self-esteem, thank you.) But now I’ve gotten into several niche games I’d prefer to play with people and I have no skills or energy to make that happen. The most niche one is the Armada 3 mod for Sins of a Solar Empire. I love that game and I’d love to play with my friends, but my friends have very little trek fandom/rts enthusiast crossover.
