I mean yeah like you can be a pedant about it but all in all its a statement that makes sense. Apps on both android and ios are very sandboxed, even if you go out of your way to install malware there’s very limited damage it can do, barring zerodays in the sandboxing itself.

Yes, because when this happens to “normal people” it is never publicized as much as when it happens to a celebrity. It’s kind of by-definition.

But I am not disagreeing with you. I just don’t know enough about andrew tate and this whole situation to have a good opinion here.

See, the thing is, these are all allegations. It won’t be proven until his trial in 2027 whether he did any of those things or not (well okay, apart from the misogyny thing, he’s admitting that one loud and proud). Despite the fact, he’s had money and assets ceased and was sent to jail, which goes against some pretty fundamental values that many people are taught growing up (e.g. Innocent until proven guilty). So I can definitely see how many non-misogynists or even feminists would be on Tate’s side even if they disagree with his messaging.

At first I thought that it was a for-fun pet project, which is fair enough, but it has a dedicated website and a discord server… HUH???

So it’s like make but without incremental builds? Then how is it functionally different from a folder with a bunch of shell scripts in it?

This is a good practice tho. The HTTP code describes the status of the HTTP operation. Did the server handle it? No? Was the url not found? Did it time out? Was the payload too large? And the JSON describes the result of the backend operation. So 200 OK with error: true means that your HTTP request was all good, but the actual operation bugged out for whatever reason. If you try to indicate errors in the backend with a HTTP error code, you quickly get confused about which codes can happen for what reason.

I once dragged one of those ceramic powerline insulators across two international borders because I found it lying around and liked how it looked. It took up the majority of the space in my backpack, so I had to buy a second backpack and carry it on the front of my chest lol. Apparently the reason they have that odd shape is so that when it’s raining, water can’t make a continuous trickle between the wire and the pylon

Hmm almost as if free will isn’t some magical ability to remove yourself from any disadvantageous situation, but a fundamental liberty to choose how you act in response to said situation and see in it a metaphysical meaning that transcends cultural ideas like success? Damn, wouldn’t that be crazy. If only that was true, could you imagine?

When I said that Microsoft has a lot to learn from Linux, Ubuntu Server is not what I had in mind 😂

have done historically didnt exist\was okay.

More like “didn’t exist, but was okay even if it did” lol.

TIL about the legislation, thanks!

thanks for the writeup, makes sense!

Login credentials don’t even need to be encrypted if you say no fraud before you log in, and cross your fingers

Don’t forget to unset the evil bit as well!

btw do you know why it was decided to treat the r-word as an ableist slur? And why didn’t they also make “idiot” a slur, since it has basically the same etymology? Is this a lemmy-specific thing? I’ve never seen anyone use or interpret the r-word as a slur outside of lemmy

Yeah, time to slam that word out of existence!

At least in my country, google is going balls-to-the-walls mode with the chrome psyop. Like every third ad on youtube is an ad for chrome. And if you’re a little older, you’ll remember their countless other ad campaigns that propelled chrome into the mainstream. The only reason so many people use chrome is because they’re brainwashed into it.

To all the people downvoting: plastering the political compass in contexts where it makes no fucking sense is a kind of ironic humor meant to highlight the reductive nature of judging political ideology by two axes. It’s a shitpost, and a top-tier one at that.

I don’t have a problem with people launching meme coins for fun. They’re consenting adults, if they want to risk thousands of dollars on a meme, that’s their choice. But an elected official who has the power to pass laws regulating cryptocurrency doing it? Yikes.
