I feel this. Physical books are much better for reading but I miss grep so much when I need to consult

Would stuff like Fedora be in danger, in this case? I couldn’t find if Red Hat was US based

Yeah, to some things they are

I mean, isn’t this the exact scenario they wrote in the Second Amendment for? Can’t say this reaction is surprising given it’s at the roots of the country and extensively defended by the Founding Fathers

I mean after the attack the strands left could be used to trace operation spots. But I guess you’re right, I didn’t realise they were that thin

Don’t these reveal the location of the operator, though?

Rhythm and fighting game players have known this for decades now

Is it regressive, though? In the context of alternative transportation being readily available, I’d think willingness to drive and pay the fare is positively correlated with wealth. Not the case in many US cities, and in those cases I agree with your point

No issue there, though… If that is what’s happening, congestion pricing essentially added a tax on rich people, which is always desirable

In the mornings I’ll usually read news while enjoying a cup of coffee and a Zyn, too, forgot to mention that

Does finance count? I’m usually studying something in the alternative data space (that is, using non-financial data to make decisions on investments) so I can, in the end, make a presentation or deliver a product to someone. For example, an analyst decides to study a clothing company and asks me to scrape their prices in the main Latin American markets (because he thinks they can grow there or something). So I do that for a while and report back to him what I found. If it is interesting, I may be tasked with implementing something in our Excel add-in so he can plug that information into his own models, or I’ll need to develop a model myself.
Lots of spacing out, browsing lemmy and playing bullet chess on my phone, too

On bike? Believe it or not, also jail.

Running the service itself over Tor is the only way to prevent local governments knocking on the admin’s door, though

Hard agree. Decentralization itself doesn’t really work against censorship, you need an additional layer of privacy, or, more ideally, anonymity. Is there a way of running a lemmy instance over Tor?

Can’t disagree here, this would be great

I see you have commented about those intentions a few times. I don’t know how serious you are about opsec, but in these times I would refrain from publicizing any violent intentions without at least being in a secure account I have only ever accessed via Tor, and I wouldn’t post personal stuff like cat pictures or mentions of any siblings in that account. Please, be safe

I don’t know about stopping entirely. I built a pretty cool RAG system for internal use in my company, it very much facilitates navigating very large amounts of text data.

The PE firms buying the entire downtown are raising prices, not muh immigrants

They are more akin to Gestapo while MAGA as a whole is KKK, but we shouldn’t nitpick

Yup, and the arguments are so weirdly self centered, too. “I went through so much when I started college, what would I talk about with someone in HIGH SCHOOL?” (19-17 gap) Dude, you started smoking pot and went to a few frat parties, it’s not that deep. Also are these people just always discussing life experiences for some reason? No shared interests, hobby groups, common acquaintances?
