These days, there is nothing abnormal anymore about a 4channer in highschool with a self-centered and entitled world view, low work ethics and a video gaming hobby. He is the normie. The guy who volunteers in a soup kitchen and takes active care of his own body is the one who dares to stand out and be different.

... When I read that title, I assumed he would fire the RPG at the drone. (Expensive overkill, but it would get the job done.) Not use it as a fucking club.

Depends on the circumstances. Sometimes in really old buildings, changes to the layout are made at some point, and then you are left with some old door somewhere where no door is needed anymore, so you just seal the door shut and leave it in place. In that case, it would be no big deal to put a bathtub there.

Das erstaunlichste daran ist, dass die Zeitung darüber berichtet.

Is this a meme from when JPEG was new and a 56k modem was considered blazingly fast?

This is x86 assembler. (Actually, looking at the register names, it's probably x86_64. On old school x86, they were named something like al, ah (8 bit), ax (16 bit), or eax (32 bit).) Back in the old days, when you pressed a key on the keyboard, the keyboard controller would generate a hardware interrupt, which, unless masked, would immediately make the CPU jump to a registered interrupt handler, interrupting whatever else it was doing at the point. That interrupt handler would then usually save all registers on the stack, communicate with the keyboard controller to figure out what exactly happened, react to that, restore the old registers again and then jump back to where the CPU was before.

In modern times, USB keyboards are periodically actively polled instead.

Non-murder solution:

Place and hold the apples precisely on top of one another. (Make sure your fingers are not in the way.) From one side of the apple tower, go horizontally exactly two thirds of the way to the other side. At that position, cut vertically through both apples from top to bottom. You now have two pieces that are two thirds of an apple each, and two pieces that are one third each. The kid you like best will receive the end slices without the apple core in it.

More realistically, disregard the stupid premise and make as many cuts as you need.

The cavendish banana, which most people these days know as a "normal banana", is already slowly dying out. You may have noticed that normal store-bought bananas do not have any seeds in them. That means the only way they can multiply is through farmers constantly manually removing suckers from their base and replanting those as a new plant, which in turn means all modern cavendish plants are essentially clones of each other. Which in turn means banana plnatations are an even more extreme kind of monoculture than wheat or corn, which makes them absurdly susceptible to fungal infections. Once a fungus develops that specialises in that particular plant, there is no way to stop the process.

It has happened before, in the 1950ies, with the previous "standard banana", the Gros Michel, and it's happening again now.

Give it a few more years, and people won't get what the joke was supposed to be anymore…

Diese Kohlmeise hat ja nie gesungen. Wir wissen immer noch nicht, wem er da sein Ehrenwort gegeben hatte, oder warum dieses Indianerehrenwort offenbar wichtiger war als sein verdammter Amtseid…

Kohlmeise und… Schnapsmeise? Kornmeise? Schnapsdrossel kenne ich, aber Drosseln sind schwarz und größer.

Vielleicht Blaumeise?

In the background i can only recognize Shinzo Abe (Japan).

John Bolton is also quite recognizable. The rest, I can't place, either.

 
 

The photon UI under photon.lemmy.world does not work for me in Firefox 122 under Linux, showing nothing but blank page when I open it. It works in Chromium and in Firefox on Android.

When I open the developer console, I get the following error message:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: e.moderation is undefined

Is there any lemmy community for finding and discussing other communities, in the sense of "Hey, I am interested in this and that topic, which community should I join?"

 

I see kbin.social mentioned here and there where lemmy is discussed. How are those two related? Are they linked up, or are those completely separate communities?

 

It seems like what i2p is doing largely overlaps with what tor does. How do the two compare, and why would you use one over the other?

 

I see plenty of posts talking about a huge influx of new users to lemmy.ml lately. Can we get some numbers about that? How many new users per day are we talking? How does that translate to number of requests per second (or minute) on the frontend?

What kind of hardware is lemmy.ml running on? Is it just a single server? Can lemmy instances be run on a loadbalanced cluster?

I'm really interested to see how efficient and resilient the lemmy software really is, at the moment I am getting the impression that it is buckling under the load of, honestly, not even that many users...

 

In some cases when I post a comment to a topic on a different instance, the comment will seemingly just disappear into thin air. Posting and commenting to the Lemmy Support community seems to work mostly fine, even though it is on lemmy.ml while my account is on lemmy.world. Any comments I tried to make on feddit.de just plain disappeared, though, no trace of them anywhere, not in my profile, not in the discussion thread, not even on the actual feddit.de instance.

Any idea what's going wrong here?

 

See title, is there any way to make lemmy not automatically blur the image thumbnails in posts marked as "NSFW"?
