Also Omega is the last latter of the Alphabet not Sigma

I remember smear pieces from German press after October 7 2023, where they claimed Greta would have fallen in the eyes of the world. The idea that “the world” may not follow the same narratives as Germany seemed to be beyond comprehension for those writers.

My uncle. Very smart very neuronal. He knows the entire Internet, can you imagine? the entire internet. Like the mails of Crooked Hillary Clinton, that crook. You know what stands in that Mails? my uncle knows. He makes the best code. The most beautiful code. No one has ever seen code like it, but for him, he’s a genius, like i am, i have inherited all his genius genes. It is very easy. He makes the best code. Sometimes he calls me and asks me: you are even smarter than i am. Can you look at my code?

AFAIK they would remain tied to your old account. The instances copy everything off each other. So if reddthat.com would go down, your comment would still show as EndlessNightmare@reddthath.com If you were to make a new account on a different instance it would not have your posts and comments “attached” to it.

This could be an issue if you rely on reputation for something that is tied to your account. In that sense having some mechanism to proof the old account to be owned by you would be good.

You can transfer all your subscriptions and blocks. What you cannot transfer is your imaginary internet points that aren’t summed up by default in lemmy anyways.

Anti-privacy by default, pushing AI slop that takes all your data, more than one improperly checked update rolled out that bricked many computers, shoving Ads everywhere…

Of course you could say these to not be strictly new, but it is a new level of enshittification way beyond what we used to know.

That are confirmed. The real numbers are much higher as there is thousands of people who are “missing”. Also if an entire family gets annihilated there is sometimes no one left to report the people as missing.

The fediverse is much more than just lemmy. That being said i also disagree for lemmy. Drama between mods and communities was a regular thing on reddit. Still reddit managed to grow quite big before the bots took over. And companies are in no way more accountable to the users. Look at what happened with twitter under Musk. The only realistic choice you have as a normal user is to leave. And in the fediverse leaving a shitty instance still allows you to connect with all the other content from a different instance.

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: When Allah drowned Fir’awn [Pharaoh of Egypt as he was pursuing Moses and the people of Benny Israel] he said: ‘I believe that there is no god except the One that the children of Isra’il believe in.’ So Jibrail [The Angel Gabriel] said: ‘O Muhammad! If you could only have seen me, while I was taking (the mud) from the sea, and filling his mouth out of fear that the mercy would reach him.’

According to Islam no-one is beyond achieving forgiveness if they sincerely repent as the mercy and forgiveness of God is limitless. However except for explicitly mentioned people such as the Prophets, we do not know who achieves Paradise and who is punished in Hell until the day of judgement. Not even the Angels closest to God know.

Most of the links in that list fail or lead to http rather than https. The point about Radware links to an archived webpage that states that proton no longer works with them. Storing Emails as .eml seems to be a rather arbitrary critique. Criticizing Proton for operating in Switzerland because of Swiss laws also seems odd, when the very article you are positing it under is criticizing Swiss laws changing further to make them consider relocation.

Randos destroy evidence, botch data gathering, beat up civilians and witnesses and perpetrators alike, and generally complicate things.

This assumes the necessity to abide by some sort of more or less legal process by the cops. Once this requirement goes out the window entirely the only question is whether the randos might shoot the wrong people. Otherwise they will be welcomed. Also consider that riot police, patrol runners and other enforcers are a different bunch from investigators, with the investigators being the more educated minority among cops to begin with.

On the flip side, you can also have threads where people hold different conversations, but it becomes impossible to read, because you don’t get the reply-tree structure like we have here.

Then again with reply trees you cannot easily see, which tree has the latest answer and if things are generally active or not.

Different formats for different focuses.

Yeah it can. But then they have only my passwords. If they steal a database from a large identity provider, they have millions if not hundreds of millions of passwords. For monetarily motivated crime, my password manager is not a realistic target.

Yeah, also if the one login gets compromised, oh boy…

Anecdote time. My first e-mail account got hacked. I still had my Steam account attached to it. Now i have a VAC Ban in CS2 because some chinese kid used it for hacking ingame.

Assuming someone to develop a sufficient consciousness of their time starting with age 10 that would mean anything before 2010.

In all practical matter, people who are 25 now, cannot have any practical recollection of the US invasion of Iraq and are only having broad ideas of the 2007 financial crisis.

That is indeed scary.

My impression is that people will be eager to tell in the comments that a news source is bad or biased, or that the specific article is misinformation.

At the end of the day, if you just trust some rank value that someone tossed in, w.o. knowing who is behind it exactly and how they reached that conclusion, it can be an easy source for disinformation.

Also some news outlets are providing reliable coverage on some issues, while being biased on others. Often they just repeat texts from Reuters, AP or other agencies. So any single value rating can warn you that the same message is “biased” in one case and in another case it cheers it on as “reliable”.

In other words: You can keep jumping out of the window in different ways, trying to find a way for humans to fly w.o. mechanical help, or you can just accept taking the stairs.

Well the only way to change that is to engage with those communities and provide content. Ofc. community building isnt easy.

Upon being awarded the prize of A$10,000 (equivalent to $36,011 in 2022), Young said that he did not know there was a prize and that he felt bad accepting it, as each of the other five runners who finished had worked as hard as he did—so he gave A$3,000 to 41-year-old Joe Record and A$4,000 to the other runners, keeping only A$3,000 for himself.[2] Despite attempting the event again in later years, Young was unable to repeat this performance or claim victory again.[8]

Naah. There is plenty of Gen X, Y, Z who know and plenty of Millenials who dont.

Its just if you wanted to “do stuff with computers” you had to develop some understanding back then.

Today you can “do stuff” like gaming much easier out of the box. So not everyone who “does stuff” knows his way around.

In the office most colleagues of all generations just know how to do their specific things, mostly in MS Office products.

Couldn’t you just handle this with:

breakflag = False

for x in iterator:

     if breakcondition(x):
            breakflag = True
            break  
     dostuff()
