My favourite is when god says “let there be light” a couple of days before he creates the sun and stars.

Yeah basically.
Without knowledge of good and evil how can you avoid evil acts? You can’t.
A leap year is every 4 years, but not every 400 years. If you could only vote on Feb 29 you’d have gone 8 years without a vote between 1996 and 2004.
I wonder that billion pounds are to do with AWS Services because the only alternative is Microsoft lock in.
This is so believable. You copy a few examples out of a textbook using cout and cin and it seems reasonably inline with other languages.
Batman in an interrogation room pins joker to the wall.
Batman: “I’ve only got one rule”
Joker: “Then that’s the rule you’re gonna have to break to get what you want”.
Now I hate Marvell and all super hero movies but I do find that quote applies to a lot of things.
If you’re truthful or law abiding then law breakers have an advantage on you. They’ll try and undermine free and fair elections.
If you’re a pacifist then people will use violence to try and control you, such as terrorism, or simply ignore your laws.
If you have socialism then people will pour in from other countries or try to exploit the system in whatever they can.
If the police or strict or lax in either direction it causes upset.
Whatever you say is a law, or a line you won’t cross, is something that people will exploit.
I used to work in Amesbury very near this site and I can tell you this completely unnecessary.
Sure fix the potholes but 2bn for 2 miles of duel carriage way that ultimately won’t speed up journeys between London and the shitholes on the A303 (eg. Salisbury) just aren’t worth it.
You gotta walk your own path.
Most people know exactly what they have to do to obtain a skill, start a business, make a friend, experience and adventure but simply don’t out of fear of the unknown.
The Internet is helpful but you got to put stock in your own lived experience.
No one cares and this will literally never be a talking point.
Trump beat Biden in a debate so badly, Biden dropped out. Trump now gets to say “dems are weak and messing you around with weak leadership” and “you don’t know who you’re electing with Harris”. I’m the safe choice since I’ve already been the Pres.
Like this is a huge win for Trump. He smashed Hilary, then he smashed Biden and you really think Harris will fair better? Like it’s some extreme copium.
Saying “he’s old, ha ha got you by your own standards” just makes you look foolish. Like you don’t have any positive points about Harris to make. Any real firepower against Trump. It’s actually cringe to think any Republican won’t just laugh you out of the room for that.
As a programmer, a smoker and coffee drinker, I can tell you that this technique actually works!
I got a message earlier today saying my subscription would now include ads. I immediately cancelled the subscription out of principle.
I know nothing about chess but I’d have said move the castle one right to put the king in check, then drive the pawns up to pressure it, or move the castle 1 left and pick off work through the two bishops.
Firstly, who the fuck are they?
Secondly, you have the money, why can’t you just be reasonable? Like it’s not enough to rich, and not work and be happy, travel the world without limits and without a care… you somehow need to hurt people. It’s awful.
UK
€565m and then €365m per year for all your immigration problems solved is a bargain. We up to tens of billions overspent on our problems.
I typed b I t c h and something changed it
Why does Biden just say “yeah he’s my removed boy”? It would completely undermine the image Trump and the Republicans build of themselves.
I’ve been on Reddit for 16 years and I’d say yes it’s very similar. Like Reddit back then it was very tech focused and quite liberal.
I do think people are a bit more vicious online these days than they used to be and a bit more polarised.
From a content perspective there used to be more blog content than tech news content, but it’s fairly similar. What I like about Lemmy is it’s far less commercial and the conversation is more genuine.
However I don’t think Lemmy will become Reddit in 15 years, I think it may languish in eternal obscurity and I’m actually okay with that.
Reddit exploded when Digg crumbled and the same could happen with Reddit crumbling but idk, there seems to be some stickiness to Internet websites these days.
I’ve used Debian stable daily for 20 years.
When I was young and passionate about Linux there were lots of things that were behind and noticible. Notably big things like KDE with obvious graphical features that I could see I was missing out on.
After a few years I stop finding any excitement in upgrading at all. I became critical of pointless features and rewrites. KDE is worse if anything.
In the last 5 years there has been stuff I’ve wanted that’s existed outside the project. Docker when it came out, Wireguard. I just ended up waiting.
The only software I run outside the repositories atm is neovim and that’s because I want to use the latest Scala-metals IDE tool. That itself is becoming more stable though.
