Okay, guess I know what brand my next trimmer is gonna be.

Can’t speak for nowadays, but long ago when I dabbled in WordPress myself, the code was pretty shitty and insecure.
- Comment on Airlines Are Selling Your Data to ICE 3 days ago:
AFAIK no one has triggered the biggest fines (yet?). Can’t wait for it to happen.
- Comment on Help : Self-Hosting RSS Feed for my blog (pls) 4 days ago:
It doesn’t become less insecure, though.
- Comment on Palworld devs confirm game changes due to the Nintendo / Pokemon lawsuit 4 days ago:
That might be true, but my point was you cannot say someone did the mechanic earlier if it’s the same company.

So, because I can’t solve one problem, I shouldn’t ever try to solve a different one? I like Gandalf as much as the next guy, but their world is very simple - evil is evil, good is good and there’s no place for shades of gray.

In the US where they decided to make the punitive system for-profit?
- Comment on We have reached the “severed fingers and abductions” stage of the crypto revolution - Ars Technica 5 days ago:
Sure, you can call it that and yeah, it might make some people think more before being in favour of it just because it doesn’t sound as bad.
But I disagree with the first part, plenty deserve to be killed, always had and always will.
In theory death penalty is exactly that - people justly decide that someone harms society too much and they don’t want that person in society.
(again, note that I don’t think it should be implemented in real world because of how easily corruptible people are)
- Comment on We have reached the “severed fingers and abductions” stage of the crypto revolution - Ars Technica 5 days ago:
I mean, it’s hard. I’m not really against death penalty on its own, I think there are crimes which deserve exactly that. My issue with death penalty is how easy it is to misuse. So in a theoretical world where some perfect entity with no ability to make mistakes decides who gets it, I’m 100% in favour. In the real world, not so much.

Depends on what you use for the blog. Most blogging software does have RSS support. If you’re writing the blog by hand, you need to create the RSS manually, or if there’s some kind of source for the blog posts, generate it from the source data.
- Comment on Help : Self-Hosting RSS Feed for my blog (pls) 5 days ago:
Don’t ever install WordPress, just let it die. It’s slow, insecure and the owner is a dick.
- Comment on We have reached the “severed fingers and abductions” stage of the crypto revolution - Ars Technica 5 days ago:
As much as I dislike crypto, this is not a crypto fail story, even though the article paints it like that a few times.
No one should have their finger servered because of other people’s greediness.
These are the occasions I wish death penalty was a thing, especially for those cases where the idiots have been caught in the act - there are better things to do with my tax money than making sure they have a place to live in and some nice good meals to go with it.
- Comment on Palworld devs confirm game changes due to the Nintendo / Pokemon lawsuit 5 days ago:
Which might be the exact reason, given it’s created by Nintendo?
- Comment on Palworld devs confirm game changes due to the Nintendo / Pokemon lawsuit 5 days ago:
Fuck Nintendo. Someone should explain it to them Luigi Mangione style.
- Comment on Palworld devs confirm game changes due to the Nintendo / Pokemon lawsuit 5 days ago:
Well, the mechanic is not a mount in the usual sense, but holding a flying Pal, as in you’re not saddling it but holding it and letting it slowly glide down.
- Comment on Wikipedia sources their information better than most journalists do in their articles. 1 week ago:
In elementary school I was doing a paper on Al Capone and there was the section with his early days which included “like every young boy he liked jerking off.”
Most likely true, though the sources were missing.

This, but unironically.
- Comment on Eggs 1 week ago:
Additionally, it’s not true at all. Like, when I was a junior dev, everything was new and hard. Now I do stuff much harder than was the hardest I did back then.
- Comment on Does the average person have no critical thinking? 1 week ago:
Yep. For example during the Soviet occupation here, the Colorado potato beetle got imported here somehow and given it doesn’t have any natural predators, it destroyed potatoes like crazy.
Well, guess what? According to Soviet propaganda it was intentionally done by Americans to destroy our “paradise” and our food.
Everything bad that happened was because the evil imperialists worked against our paradise.
The country being so poor it couldn’t afford enough toilet paper for its citizens? Westerners! All foreign fruit being very scarce and people standing in long lines to get it, while the ones in the back knew they probably aren’t getting any today? Also westerners’ fault.
Propaganda is not the usual over-the-top stories, it’s subtle. Would you today believe if someone told you that Americans have imported the Colorado potato beetle intentionally? And would you, if it was consistent with everything you’ve heard since you were a kid?

Seems it’s currently 48 hours week according to the article.
- Comment on EU fines Apple $568m for deterring third-party payment methods on App Store 2 weeks ago:
Perhaps I worded it poorly, but my point was that companies shouldn’t go bankrupt when they make a mistake.
If you keep doing it after you’ve been told, then you’re no longer just making a mistake it’s obviously malicious, but I don’t think then Apple should go bankrupt when they incorrectly implement a new law.
While I personally don’t think it’s accidental, you should be more lenient towards a first offense for any new law (unless you can prove it was intentional, which is incredibly hard).
- Comment on EU fines Apple $568m for deterring third-party payment methods on App Store 2 weeks ago:
While true, 568m is a significant cost of doing business. Also remember that a punitive action should not make the company go bankrupt, it should make them rethink.
And if they don’t, the fines will go higher, until they do rethink.
- Comment on EU fines Apple $568m for deterring third-party payment methods on App Store 2 weeks ago:
Steam is equally shitty, they just have the advantage of not being publicly traded which means they can create long term strategies and execute them successfully.
Doesn’t mean they’re pro consumer.
- Comment on How do some communities get like 50 members minutes after its creation? 2 weeks ago:
Yep, this is the reason, the service that facilitates this is called Lemmy Federate.
- Comment on Maybe creating an ocean of AI disinformation so large it dilutes all verifiable truth is the key to getting people to unplugged. 3 weeks ago:
I mean, if ever there was a good reason for blockchain (aka immutable things that can’t be changed after being created), it’s this.
Digital everything is the future, like it or not, for long term preservation it’s better to focus on digital solutions.
- Comment on STOP destroying videogames 3 weeks ago:
I mean, not even 500k people in the whole of EU care about this apparently, so we get what we deserve, I guess.
- Comment on STOP destroying videogames 3 weeks ago:
It really looked like it’ll be signed quickly in the beginning, I was really hopeful.
Now I’m not really sure it will pass.
- Comment on Diablo 4's first big collab is Berserk? Yeah, ok, that one's pretty good I guess 3 weeks ago:
Hmm, that reminds me I should check whether Berserk actually moved somewhere, the quality went down since the author died.
