- Comment on Texas National Guard arriving in Chicago 1 day ago:
If you mean they’re a danger to everyone in the vicinity, yes absolutely.
But they’d still be a shit soldier. Lot more to combat readiness than ability to pull a trigger. (Though if the USA wants to fill its armed forces with obese people I won’t complain lmao)
- Comment on effective advertising to boost your business 4 days ago:
The font in “We stay hard at work” combined with the generic style of the graphics. I clocked it as well before opening the comments

Theoretically you can set that money aside in an account that gains interest and make a little money holding onto it until tax season where you pay it all at once.
- Comment on This should be true 1 week ago:
Yeah you can just not have any taxes taken from your check!
- Comment on How can I optimize my jellyfin, specifically transcoding and the CPU usage involved? I'm running it off a mini pc so resources are everything 1 week ago:
Check your disk access usage maybe? Like if you store things on an external drive with USB2 or something you’re gonna have a bad time with multiple videos/high bitrate stuff because you’re saturating the bandwidth of the connection

I mean some small part of it is dino. But yeah by biomass it’s mostly plant.
- Comment on Google just broke *all* third-party web clients, including yt-dlp; a full JS implementation is now required. 2 weeks ago:
I regularly forget to update it for 8 months and it has never broken for me

It’s really not as dangerous as you’d think. I don’t recommend it, but it’ll be fine.

Buddy I don’t think you’ll have users to moderate. It’s a personal instance, that’s fine.
- Comment on The McDonald's employee who called on Luigi has never received their "reward", folks chasing the 100k for Kirk may not either... 4 weeks ago:
I believe that but I do have to wonder how much of that is due to no credible leads being offered on most cases vs them just cheating their own narcs. “Money paid” vs “Money offered” doesn’t give any clarity to that.

Why bother asking the bullshit machine

It’s not just me then. The message with the nationalistic lighting bolt immediately set off Nazi alarms in my brain
- Comment on Too soon? 4 weeks ago:
I feel bad that his children had to witness that, and even if they hadn’t been there (which they were) they’d undoubtedly have the video clip shoved in their faces eventually. That’s a hell of a way to lose a parent.
It’s what he wanted. Quick, too.
It is fucked for those kids though. Not their fault.

Chilean memes - what a rare one
- Comment on language learning 4 weeks ago:
Arabic is a very fragmented language though how do you decide which dialect to learn? Spanish has a lot of variants too but they’re all pretty much still mutually intelligible. I’ve heard that’s not so true for Arabic.
- Comment on Jajajaja 4 weeks ago:
“Niños” can mean kids in general, regardless of gender. “Niñas” would be a group of girls (children). “Niños” can mean a group of boys (children) or a group of kids (mixed genders).

There’s some truth here but it’s definitely not THE reason the rich are rich, not even close.
- Comment on Will Lemmy instances be forced to verify users' ~~ages~~ identities? 4 weeks ago:
I’m waiting to see exactly how the UK plans to compel me, someone who lives outside the UK with a Lemmy server hosted outside the UK, to follow their rules.
If they find me non-compliant, they can block my site.

- Comment on Google: 'Your $1000 phone needs our permission to install apps now'". Android users are screwed - Louis Rossmann 5 weeks ago:
Most Android apps can be run under a mini-VM in the Linux systems I’ve tried - but some apps won’t function well that way (banking, NFC tickets, etc)
- Comment on Google: 'Your $1000 phone needs our permission to install apps now'". Android users are screwed - Louis Rossmann 5 weeks ago:
(non-Android) Linux phones aren’t really ready for daily driving even for relatively advanced users - but it looks like we’re gonna have to deal with it anyhow
