0·11 months agoProbably so. It’s always going to be an arms race, just like with malware.
I have heard that so many times now…

News@lemmy.world•Incoming Trump team is asking White House National Security Council civil servants about their loyalty
0·11 months agoYou’re missing what so many people seem to be missing because I keep seeing people say things like this: they do not care about the law. They don’t care. And now they don’t have to care.

News@lemmy.world•World’s 500 Richest People Surpassed $10 Trillion in Wealth This Year
0·1 year agoIt should simply not be legal anywhere to hold more money than you could possibly spend in your lifetime.
Similarly, much like there is a minimum wage (at least in the U.S.), there should be a maximum wage. And that would include stock options.

News@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione Judge Married to Former Healthcare Executive
0·1 year agoThere were 24,849 homicides in 2022.

Almost none of them, if any, likely required a nationwide manhunt.
Not one of them required an escort of 30 police officers plus a helicopter to the courtroom.
As far as I can tell, none of them were charged with terrorism.
And now he’s getting as biased a judge as he could possibly get.
If we’re going to start charging murderers with terrorism, let’s start with the cops.
If Batman were a realistic billionaire, he’d be in league with Lex Luthor.

News@lemmy.world•Netanyahu tells WSJ he will not sign hostage deal that will end the war
0·1 year agoYou don’t have to take my word for it. Just ask his former best friend: https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-798324
But feel free to explain why you think he won’t sign the deal.

News@lemmy.world•Netanyahu tells WSJ he will not sign hostage deal that will end the war
0·1 year agoBecause if he ever loses his war powers, his dictatorship will end.
Not only is this absolutely inexcusable, also, Funko Pops are ugly and creepy-looking and I don’t understand why people spend so much money on them just because they look vaguely like the characters or people they’re supposed to represent.
God I hate our whole system.

And I guarantee you if you asked a lot of the older MAGA what they thought of Bill Clinton, “draft dodger” would come up eventually.

World News@lemmy.world•Yemeni fighters reportedly join Russia's war in UkraineEnglish
0·1 year agoAre we still calling the child soldier-conscripting Houthis the good guys because they are against Israel or can we finally admit that just because you’re against a bad thing doesn’t mean you’re a good thing?

News@lemmy.world•Indiana ban on gender transition treatment for minors upheld by U.S. appeals court
0·1 year agoWe’re in Indiana. One of my daughter’s close friends is trans. The school system treats him like shit already. He has to change with the girls and use the girls’ bathroom. Once, a girl was being a bigot to him over and over and he finally lost it and slapped her. He got in trouble, she did not.
I wish I could help him somehow. He’s such a sweet kid.

News@lemmy.world•Teens Want Less Sex in Movies and TV Shows, Study Finds
0·1 year agoMy issue is that it’s almost always gratuitous now. I so rarely see a sex scene in a TV show or movie and think that it could have easily been skipped, but they felt the need to show an actress’ breasts and have her simulate an orgasm.
I don’t get titillated by it. I have porn if I need that.
I didn’t get past the first episode of Game of Thrones because I found all the sex and nudity too gratuitous for my tastes.
I don’t think I’m a prude. I have no problem with sex scenes and nudity in films where they make sense. Basic Instinct wouldn’t make sense without them. Last Tango in Paris wouldn’t make sense without them. They’re both movies worth watching.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I hope you don't have any plans this evening.
0·1 year agoAfraid so. Hope you enjoy the great snatch.

A lot of those LCD games sucked, but every so often there would be a decent one. Glad your mom was able to get you a fun one.
Really, it isn’t so much about the technology as it is what you do with it. I did have a Gameboy, but I have a much older brother and I inherited his Merlin and I probably played it just as much.

Anyway, there were some super shitty Gameboy games, so I hope your bully only had those.







Could be either Spanish or French based on those words, I guess. I’m not sure if any of the words in the picture don’t start with the same letter in those languages (or maybe even other Romance languages).
