Everything’s got to be about politics here.

NOOOOO I’M GOING TO SUE YOU IN LEMMY COURT

Do you think that people generally need to ask permission before reposting something (non-OC, anyhow) that was shared on a public forum?

“Reposting content without prior permission”?

Hanlon’s Razor is all well and good as a heuristic, but tends to lead to people discounting malice much too often. Also, I really didn’t say we were “under attack”

I absolutely don’t know, but my guess would be spambots or somesuch

If the data you’re handling isn’t sensitive in any way (or you can eg. anonymise / pseudonymise it) and you don’t have anything else sensitive on the VM, it wouldn’t really matter either way – and as @[email protected] said, if you’re running an executable from some yarrr site you’re probably going to get malware

Just run it in a VM?

feel like hangovers from an old mediaeval version of the language.

This is pure conjecture on my part, but I think that might be the explanation.

Also like @[email protected] alluded to, English really isn’t one language, but more like 4(+) languages in a trench coat pretending to be one. Lots of weird shit that really doesn’t make much sense unless viewed from a perspective of language development & history

I bet that the particular universe where Phil dies just collapses on itself, killing everyone in the process. Thankfully so far there’s always been at least one universe with a Phil that doexn’t die

Can I book you for parties? You’d be a great hit

Weird API. Returning the text for deleted comments and then expecting clients to redact it seems highly silly

Half-loathing

I make my own though

Ehh, I mean yeah I get what you mean, but guns are still pretty useful tools (if not exactly pleasant.) US gun fetishism is way off the deep end, but we’re still pretty far from “bluetooth smart diaper” territory

Guns are inanimate.

People who do dumb shit like this are dumb.

And in your opinion, how could I have better represented someone test firing a gun in their own goddamn hand?

Wait, you’re right. After your reply I think “moron” was way too lenient of me.

Please tell me you weren’t wearing eye or ear protection, that’d make this even better.

Yeah, using the wrong kind of filament accidentally is understandable and doesn’t say anything about anyone’s intelligence.

Takes a real moron to test fire a brand new experimental gun in their hand, and then cry about it and blame their friend when it inevitably goes sideways

Oh I wish it was. Eg. here in Finland sharing movies etc. among friends or downloading them off the internet used to be legal as long as you weren’t doing it for profit or distributing stuff to a huge audience, but that changed in 2006 because the new EU Copyright Directive required it, and that directive was hugely influenced by the likes of WIPO.

Governments rarely realize anything related to IP that the copyright mafia doesn’t spoon-feed them, unfortunately.
