True, but the title says Fighting Back. Which is what they are doing by blocking the ICE officers. In English "Fighting Back" is an idiom for "taking a stand" - it does not necessarily mean actually fighting.

In this case the closest thing to a fight that happened was 'Federal Officers' (which is a fucking stretch when referring to ICE) throwing a hissy fit at the end and tear gassing civilians and Police.

Much better, aside from some residual health issues from the visit.

Was in the hospital for two months with mono. In ICU on a respirator for 4 weeks of that.

Was fired from my job, evicted from my apartment, and my girlfriend at the time decided to cheat on me while I was in there.

Good times.

Preventing their shitty brute force protection from allowing someone to get a users MS account password because they are FORCING users to use a non-local account?

The computer would have to store a hash locally to authenticate that account offline, so this is very likely why this is here. Because they've enabled a path to brute forcing their cloud accounts without their servers knowing.

The windows shithole is just layers of bad design all the way down.

When I first started learning PCs and Linux, I just went to the local thrift stores and Value Village. Even today people turn in all kinds of perfectly working compute hardware, mostly just old. Consumer stuff doesn't retain much resale value and many cannot be bothered with trying to sell it, so it ends up in the dump, at the recyclers, in thrift stores, or on classified ads like Craig's list, kijiji and the like.

EBay usually only sees the stuff that can fetch a worthwhile dollar.

Yeah this was way more traumatizing than anything Signs had.

Moreover, in programming a single = sets the value on the left to the value on the right, while == (or in some languages ===) means to compare the values (and === is explicit).

Then there are the various forms of not equal (!=) and greater than/less than or equal ( <=, >= )

It says "seen over" which means in the sky, not sure why people keep guessing things on the ground.

It looks like either something leaving or reentering the atmosphere. Could be yet another Starlink sattelite deorbiting.

Before that oil was moved through pipelines it was moved by train, I'm sure that could be arranged to bridge some of the demand. Not perfect by any means, but it would help until we could solve the pipeline problem. At this point we need to plan for a "when" scenario.

You mean the information sharing? No its just data they can use if they decide to go through with annexation of the country so they can find all the people they want to send to the Gulags or prosecute for thought crimes right away.

 

I've been seeing a lot of startrek.website shares I do showing the wrong desc and image in the unfurl on the posts lately. It was a few of them a week at first, but it's become multiple a day now.

As the most recent example, the "Look at the time, its 7 of 9" post unfurls like this in signal:

Is this a known issue? Is there a better place to report instance issues? It kind of looks to me like UUID reuse leading to new posts displaying old images.

 

So much food.

 

Title says it all. He sells Scrooge better than any other movie adaptation I've seen.

 

As the title says, I'm curious if they ever named or revisited this Human civilization in the later parts of the timeline in any way? It seems like too good of an opportunity to not revisit it at some point.

My searches did not reveal any answer, so thought I'd ask my fellow trek nerds.

This is the most unfiltered article I've read from The Atlantic... by the time I finished the second paragraph I had to re-read the title to understand how I got here.

Edit: To be clear, this has been revealed as satire, its just so close to reality one could be forgiven for confusing the two.

 

Just had this one shared with me directly on signal and could not find it in here, nor could I find a source. Too good not to share though. If someone knows the meme creator I'll update this with proper credit.

 

Riker came down on a whole other deck and wants answers.

 

Is the darkspace theme something that comes packaged with Lemmy or something the server admins are throwing together? I love where it's going but its in need of some love.. there's nothing to make the posts readable against the background.

Complaints are not intended here, I could likely help if someone points me to a place where I can make PRs.
