I wonder if it would be possible to extend the capabilities of the software to triangulate the location of a a Stingray or other false tower with a few more of those devices working in concert in the same area.

If it were for ADA compliance, the “Umpires” door would need a Braille sign.

The Atomic Sea

or, if a Fallout fan, “The Glowing Sea”

Elon in the meeting:

Apple’s transparency reports are interesting to look at, though I think the last update was June 2024.

Here’s the latest update for the US.

Nah, it would never happen.

We would end up with comprehensive gun control reform before we ran out of our precious billionaires.

While the communities you view may differ from my own experience, I would say that political and news themed communities have had an uptick in aggression.

My sense is that it is less about the overall population on Lemmy, but more about the polarization of news and political topics in our society. If there were truly a force actively trying to promote a culture war to prevent a class war, I’d say they are doing an effective job.

Outside of news/politics communities, postings, and (directly or indirectly) related comments (or commenters), I have not experienced an increase in outright negativity and rudeness.

Just like in any written dialogue, I think some expressions of humor can be written or received poorly, lending to a received sense of rudeness—and those moments sometimes serve as reinforcement of actual offensive aggression observed elsewhere, you dick /s.

Jokes aside, I do appreciate you drawing attention to it, as a reminder for each of us to do our part to express ourselves more clearly—allowing for discussion, disagreement, sarcasm, and humor while maintaining respect and civility.

And, of course, continue to block users and communities you find objectionable; though, I would challenge anyone to ask themselves if they are blocking to avoid offensive content, or are they blocking to avoid content which does not align with their views. Silencing different points of view, ultimately, only expedites the original problem.

In only the most playful and harmless spirit of sarcasm, it kinda reads like, “you are immortal if you make choices which do not kill you”.

And as an extension, “if you choose to survive long enough, that will eventually kill you, as well”.

It sounds like a complicated way of describing an instinctively non-suicidal existence.

Don’t you dare give consumers what they want.

I generally like Marvel film and TV content, but would prefer to have the studio pause for a while.

Not because of this Jonathan Majors thing, but because I still like Marvel, but have no interest in any of its new content.

I’d rather have nothing and build up a desire for it, than be flooded with content and have no interest.

Pretty sure heaven is a halfpipe.

Did some fuckin’ Aussie heart surgeon just breeze into a Home Depot and saunter into the plumbing aisle in his board shorts and flips flops and just whip together a heart out of brass fittings and teflon tape???

“Oi! DANNY, YA FUCKIN’ BOGAN! I DONE DID YA UP A NEW RICKY TICKEY—ALL FUCKIN’ SHINEY AND CHROME!!! GRAB A CARPET KNIFE AND SOME DUNNY GLOVES—WE’ll GET THIS FUCKER INTO YOUR BLUDGER CHEST BEFORE YA SHEILA SAYS YA WERE CHUCKING A SICKIE!”

I would totally buy that and have every intention of eating it, but wouldn’t ever seem to “get around to it”, yet I also wouldn’t really be able to account for what I was doing to prevent me from “getting around to it”.

When something like a hat may actually cost you an arm and a leg.

Refill with an adapter from a larger propane tank.

The refilled tanks can’t hold as much, but it works.

They can hold a bit more if you toss them in the freezer for a while before attempting to refill.

In another way, GoT may have given them the gift of looking forward to a legit ending.

I guess Mac does win, interesting.
