Small correction: US companies sell it to the US government. How else are those tax dollars supposed to stimulate the economy? Everybody wins this way! So much winning! I’m so tired of winning!

Somewhere out there, someone wants Roz to peg them.

Holy shit! What is wrong with you, using filthy words like fr*nch online?

Oh my fucking god! You can’t just say fr*nch on the internet!

Sounds like the time I barfed out of a moving car, and half of it got sucked back in through the cracked open rear window. Surprised my dad didn’t disown me for the mess it made of his car, but within 2 hours he was busy puking up a storm too. That was one nasty fucking stomach bug.

I don't know if I'll ever find it again, but there's a "restored" version of that GiTS episode up on the internet archive. Someone took a bluray copy of the video and audio, and mixed in the relevant fart sounds from the audio of a VHS recording of the adult swim edit that was tracked down.

In less terminally online terms: “I think they’re a member of a US intelligence agency doing some vaguely psyop thing, not a normal poster”

Just patch the Youtube Music app with Revanced Manager, or use NewPipe’s background play feature.

Oh, good. I was worried the balls were one of those butt rip cord starters.

You fight like a dairy farmer!

Fair enough, still seems silly as hell to me. Windows is perfectly functional for corporate, and even software development use as long as the team managing the image and standard settings at your workplace is competent. Yeah, being able to customize everything to meet your preferred workflow etc with Linux is preferable.

Odd to use it as part of job hunting though, which is the context in this image.

Sure, but kind of silly for someone who would take a stand against MS to the point of refusing a job to be happy with Google. Then again, they also expressed they’d be happy with Apple/Mac

They say while using gmail.

Make your own comm for this if you absolutely must pour your slop out on lemmy.

It’s time for America’s favorite game show: Kink or Killer!

Most air purifiers double as white noise machines. Helps cut down on outside noise a hell of a lot.

You mean HUNK-ules

That’s disgusting! What are you, some kind of pervert?

Not a problem if you already walk around Costco full mast. Got some wondeful memories of many moments of passion in the Costco restrooms finding out just how many $1 hotdogs I could fit into my rectum. Just try going soft with half a dozen of those delicious meat tubes all up in you.

Toss some rooftop park/garden/green spaces up there as well and they’d be pretty damn great, as far as skyscrapers go.

I think greenshot is still a good alternative to snipping tool on windows. Iirc it's open source too.

Just for you, I’d enter 18,446,744,073,709,551,616

::: spoiler Explanation 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 is the max value an unsigned 64-bit long value can store. It’s absurdly unlikely that any data indexing format supports this many indexes. Then I added 1 to it. 🫠

For when you absolutely, positively, need to make sure you’re out of bounds.

Negatives aren’t enough, because some programming languages allow you to index from the other end using negatives, so -1 is the final item. :::

Credit where it’s due, science built the plane.

I was checking if you were one of the accounts that gets made and spams 10 news/political posts in it’s first day of existence (I block those). You aren’t, but for fucks sake you commented on one of the anti-news shitposts last week. You know that plenty of people don’t want this sort of shit in the shitposting comm.

The design is very human

Stuart Semple also developed a comparably “black” black to Vantablack, that is arguably darker and better suited for art use.

No, you see, this is about how some people are just born with special powers that intrinsically make them better at work related to the one and only future of the coming AGI god. DEI is about trying to ensure people have an equal chance. This is about establishing a new class of elites based on unchangable genetic traits. A class of “super” or “uber” men, if you will.

Ah yes, let’s start the slow process of eventually funneling people into roles based off this shit. AI is the future, and potentially our self-bootstrapped god. Neurodivergence makes you better at this sort of work. You’re one of the chosen people. High priest to Roko’s Ballsack Basilisk or some shit. I know that’s extreme to say, but Peter Thiel, the money behind Palantir, recently gave some absolutely insane speeches about the fucking antichrist. The AI race is legitimately a cult with religious meaning to some of these fucks. Also, brace yourselves for attempts to use this as a shield against criticism. You can’t get mad at us for not understanding the concept of human dignity, we’ve got the billionaire international surveillance contractor stamp of the global elite approved neurodivergence! To be clear, no hate meant towards the neurodivergent. I am one. All the hate to the fucking billionaires just transparently fucking over the world in every way they can.

Motherfucker, do we really need to bring back the corn?

Then you have to create a framework for evaluating the effect of the addition of each source into “positive” or “negative”. Good luck with that. They can’t even map input objects in the training data to their actual source correctly or consistently. It’s absolutely possible, but pretty much anything that adds more overhead per each individual input in the training data is going to be too costly for any of them to try and pursue. O(n) isn’t bad, but when your n is as absurdly big as the training corpuses these things use, that has big effects. And there’s no telling if it would actually only be an O(n) cost.

How am I supposed to find a cop to fuck on such short notice?

Don’t know why anyone would want to fart into a bong

I don’t know what to tell you beyond what I’ve already said. I’m not denying that it’s a serious goddamn problem. I have acknowledged that in every single comment I’ve made about this. Please stop insisting that I’m saying otherwise. Once again, I am only saying that despite the high numbers, it is not just some ever present part of life over here to the degree that every American, or even a majority, has experienced gun violence. Everyone from the outside seems to think that’s true, but it’s insanely, laughably not. The quite overwhelming majority of Americans have not experienced gun violence, and won’t within their lifetime. Our population number is roughly equivalent to 3/4 of the entire European Union’s combined population. Any of our numbers relating to people are going to look high unless you bear that in mind.

Yeah, hence why I didn’t say anything to counter anything else, or that it was a good place to visit anytime soon. Got any other mindblowing facts for us?

Perfectly valid, and thanks for not just jumping on the US bad dogpile and instead citing some stuff. I’m just speaking up because I’ve seen a lot of people online from outside the US running with this idea that gun violence is like, a daily occurence that every US citizen deals with regularly, when that’s so fucking far from the reality. Yeah, things are a powder keg over here lately and the accessibility of firearms doesn’t help, but I’ve met only one person in my almost 35 years of life who’s ever been held at gunpoint and they’re the only person I know who has ever been through any form of gun violence. There’s plenty of reasons to avoid this place for a good long while unfortunately, but I feel like the gun danger has been overblown.

I have and do, likely more than you. Thanks for patronizing! That doesn’t change my point, that the danger of gun violence is a problem, but is considerably made out to be worse than the reality by the media. Like, we have states larger than some European countries. If you took the reporting on all the bad shit happening over the equivalent space/population amount in Europe it would be pretty fucking harrowing as well. I’ve known multiple people fall into a life of constant anxiety due to overexposing themselves to the media. Convinced that every city was a fucking gun violence warzone. That horrible things were happening all the time. They didn’t know anyone who knew anyone who had experienced the things they were convinced were regular horrible occurences. And they knew more than one person (mutual friends) that worked and lived in the US city with the highest homicide rate at the time. None of those people had been even in the vicinity of gun violence. I’ve been around for nearly 35 years, and I enjoy talking with people. I’ve met only one single person who had been a victim of gun violence, in that they were robbed at gunpoint while working nights at a gas station in a rough area. There are fucking studies about this shit that are over 15 years old that show that exposure to news media back then caused people to ridiculously overestimate the frequency of crime (and especially violent crime). News has only become more emotionally charged since. I’m not saying America is some amazing place. I’m just saying that the news would have you believe that almost everyone here has had a gun violence experience, or that visitng the US is unsafe because of gun violence, when that’s not the case.

How… how much gun violence do you think actually happens here? There’s a lot by number, and that’s a serious fucking issue, but the US is also massive. It’s not a regular or frequent danger of normal life here. Even those numbers are pumped up by the fact that suicide by gun is counted in the exact same “gun violence” statistics as gang violence, and the “school shootings” statistics include all from the “gun violence” stats that occur within a certain radius around, regardless of when it happened (summer break, middle of the night, etc) or if it was any danger to students. News overfocuses on shit like that because it pulls eyes and clicks, and therefore ad revenue. Again, it is a serious fucking problem, but it’s not the kind of thing you’re going to experience in daily life or as a tourist.

Depends on the officer you’re dealing with. There’s multiple stories, from before Trump ever took office, of people being detained for up to a day for saying this or refusing to grant access to their phone. I can only imagine it’s worse now.

It’s a shitposty protest against how this sub/community has been getting flooded with news and US politics.

Fuck off, we corn now.

What motherfucker is out here straining their creamed corn? LMAO

I mean for dealing with worm parasites in the field, given limited supplies and (I’m assuming) this being a pretty old manual, this isn’t too bad. Basically instructions for forcing out the entire contents of your stomach or using something that is probably handy to kill them before they do too much damage to you.

Stupid sexy corn.

Out of the leather of his shoes, if I remember correctly.

Neat! This one I’ve actually seen before IRL!

For fucks sake man, NSFW tag this smut!
