Seems crazy that official summer lasted until just now, wow. Didn’t realize that
I still wish we would adjust our calender system by a few months, so the seasons align better with each quarter.
Is… is it summer? we are about to have fucking october.
Ideally, supervision over most non critical sectors would fall to randomly drafted, single term committees of the people, think jury duty except better compensated and obviously with bureaucratic resources available to enable these committees to fulfil their role adequately.
Now this isn’t suited for everything, but in either system any true oversight is done by the people, not the state.
Pretty sure that depends entirely on the individual. Since being deaf (or blind for that matter) isn’t as binary as it appears there are various degrees of hearing impairment. Perhaps one person is completely deaf, while another is still able to perceive certain frequencies, and yet another just needs it to be really fucking loud but if it is they hear just fine.
From my personal experience with a nearly deaf acquaintance they are using a special kind of hearing aid they can tie into their devices via Bluetooth. So they have the sound sent directly to the device specifically configured to allow them to hear.
Personally i just go with whatever conveys that i am not being serious, such as any of these 🙄🤧🙃🤔😏.
Though i suppose i should say i am not 12 and have no idea what the cool kids use, probably 💀 or so
“always” in this case is when you have two or more gpus in your system, which limits the ability to “just” run a vm considerably.
This is important. While we as a society have learned to be more inclusive than ever before, behind all that pretense we forget that what people generally consider as “retarded” isnt desirable. It is a genuine developmental impairment that negatively affects the individuals cognitive abilities. Not one parent in the world is glad their kid is special. They may love and support them just the same because they aren’t fucking ghouls, but if they had one wish no questions asked I’m sure virtually all of them would wish for their child to be “normal”.
And therein lies the truth/problem. We use retarded as a slur because it describes a condition of inferiority. Shifting the window of acceptable speech will not change this, only rephrase it. Policing language never truly works, eventually a different word for the same meaning takes hold, so all this does is spin the wheel of synonyms.
First thing NK does i can get behind
Almost, you forgot to reference being trans and also linux
The US didnt have to account for the likelihood of russian psyops and election interference destabilizing the country during these critical times though.
Twitter had a tweeting bird. Mastodon has a, well, tooting mastodon.
🤨 you will probably want to ask your tutor for your money back.
“Shmatterling” is likely the closest sounding english approximation.
Speaking of mod power abuse, some days ago one of your mods deleted my (very mildly) snarky comment for “mod harassment”, which I didnt even know they were until that point. I suggested they should be a little less petty and argumentative in random comment chains.
I did not report that bs at the time because I honestly dont give two fucks about the guy and have since blocked him, but I’m sure you can find it in the mod logs.
I am not a court of law. I am not asking for them to be killed or even harmed beyond their sentences either, this is purely a moral assessment. The convicts aren’t just petty thieves, all hardened criminals or worse. I don’t have to want them to die, but I also don’t have to care if they do.
Would you lose any sleep if either of them died for any reason?
Why yes not all of them gang raped a little girl but all of them are convicted felons. If that plane were to crash the only things of value lost would be the lives of the flight personnel.
What annoys me personally about it (to the point that i blocked the community) is that it is mandatory. That’s not humor, or funny, that is weird performative scripted humor. I often felt reminded of carnival speeches.
I’d also argue that it isnt very successful in clearing anglicisms from the german vernacular when it is all about making the most incorrect and cryptic literal translation imaginable to the point that nobody could understand unless they are well versed in those anglicisms.
it is only me_irl in name though, it is a general meme / conversational community with the obnoxious (and over used to death) in joke that is zangendeutsch.
Let me preach you the gospel of sleeping twice a day for 4-5 hours. I used to have a real slump around (after)noon to the point that i would fall asleep sitting in a chair, naturally resulting in back/neck pain. Now i just take a nice long nap whenever i feel like it, waking up to a refreshed mind.
