LAPD raid goes from bad to farce after gun allegedly sucked onto MRI machine
  • I don't know if there is any single takeaway here, this story is just fucking ridiculous on every single level.

    1. They bullshited themselves into a search warrant based on typical cannabis "investigation methods".
    2. In a state where recreational cannabis use is legal.
    3. Persisted in the search even after their main argument for it, high energy usage indicating a grow-op, fell away when it was clear it was indeed a medical facility.
    4. Made the motherfucking "Gun flies to MRI" TV trope a certified reality. This is a thing that verifiably happened now.
    5. Instead of getting help, used a sealed (!) emergency shutdown button...
    6. ...which damaged the machine. And released thousands of dollars worth of helium gas.
    7. Forgot their loaded magazine on the ground.

    This can't be real. I'm fucking dying over here. Please let there be bodycam footage of the cop speaking in a high pitched voice after. (I know the helium was probably not released into the room, but one can hope I guess)

  • ZDNET: 20 years later, real-time Linux makes it to the kernel - really
  • android auto

    First I heard of this, but since it seems to be just some software that runs on the hardware of car manufacturers it seems rather unlikely. But very theoretically possible, if the car manufacturer was using default process scheduling in a CPU constrained machine and now switches to real-time scheduling in an update. But that was possible for years before this news, the code has just been mainlined to the default kernel now. If the car manufacturer cared about that they would probably have done it already with a patched kernel.

  • Ammunition warehouses detonating after a UAV attack in Toropets, Tver region of Russia.
  • And it keeps getting worse. Basically the whole base plus some forests and residential areas seem to be burning.

    I think these are satellite measurements that accumulate over 24 hours though, so not sure if the image reflects the current situation well.

  • Aktueller Stand der Klimaschutzdebatte
  • Nö, nix verstanden du hast, alles nochmal lesen du vielleicht solltest.

    Also ich habe dir eine ziemlich direkte Frage gestellt wie du dazu stehst. Wenn du mir dann mit so einer lavierenden nicht-Antwort um die Ecke kommst... irre ich lieber auf der Seite der Vorsicht.

    Thema Einwanderung, von wo sollen die denn einwandern? Aus armen Ländern etwa? Jo, lass uns die gebildeten und lernwilligen Leute abwerben.

    Die kommen sowieso, da müssen wir nichts mehr für machen außer die mit offenen Armen willkommen zu heißen. Die Konservativen heulen deswegen doch seit Jahren rum und wollen hier einen auf Festung Europa machen stattdessen. Werden auch nicht weniger werden in Zukunft wenn der Klimawandel erst mal richtig Fahrt aufnimmt.

  • Bees
  • Because bee stingers are mostly used against other insects. They don't get stuck in a chitin exoskeleton, only in the more flexible skin tissue of mammals. In insects the barbs instead pull out soft tissue from inside, thus making them more lethal (to the bees victim).

  • Sachsen: Pirna baut Ausstellung über Geflüchtete noch vor Eröffnung wieder ab
  • Ist eine Wanderausstellung:

    In den vergangenen Monaten wurde die Schau bereits an mehreren Orten gezeigt, etwa in Kirchen, in einer Schule, in der Chemnitzer Arbeitsagentur und im Sächsischen Landtag. Nun war als nächste Station Pirna geplant.

  • Sachsen: Pirna baut Ausstellung über Geflüchtete noch vor Eröffnung wieder ab
  • Das Zitat ist mir auch sauer aufgestoßen. Was für "positives Feedback" haben die denn erwartet? Das irgendwer das geil findet wenn unsere Polizei nach Hautfarbe aussucht?

    Aber naja, wen wundert es mit einem Drittel AfD im Stadtrat...

  • Aktueller Stand der Klimaschutzdebatte
  • Der demographische Wandel ist überall auf der Welt ein Problem wo es Menschen gutgeht, sie Zugang zu Bildung haben und Frauen Rechte haben.

    Das sind die Punkte wo du ansetzen musst wenn die das Problem beheben willst. [...]

    Sozialleistungen gegen Kinder machen wird nur ausgenutzt führt aber nicht zu eine spürbaren Steigerung der Geburtenrate bei den Gruppen die nicht unter die drei oben genannten Einschränkungen fallen.

    Nur damit ich das richtig verstehe... Du sagst also wir sollten dafür sorgen das es Menschen schlecht geht, sie ungebildet sind, und Frauen keine Rechte haben?! Bitte sage mir das ich dich falsch verstanden habe!

  • So this guy believes in Nick Cannon, who has 12 children with six women
  • You thought it was AI, but she just has ulnar polydactyly. How do I know this is ulnar instead of radial or central polydactyly? The wedding ring, it's on the ring finger.

    (/s of course, this is obviously AI. But yeah people with extra fingers do in fact exist. They or the parents often cut away the extra finger for cosmetic reasons.)

  • Neighbours and other people harass me by spraying chemicals and by various other means.
  • I will keep on updating so that this remains as a proof of the crime which is happening against me .

    Bro no offence but it seems the only thing you documented here is your slow descent into madness. If your complaint to the Irish police sounded anything like this post read I'm not surprised they got mental health services involved, because frankly, you sound unhinged.

    I mean black magic? Really? That's paranoia levels of absurd. And a global conspiracy out to get you specifically wherever you move on top of that? Hate to break it to you, but we live in an indifferent world. Keeping such a conspiracy going would be a lot of effort, and it is rather unlikely that anybody gives that much of a shit about you.

    Since you probably wouldn't just believe a medical professional on this anyway (you'd explain them away as part of the conspiracy, as you already did in this post with the Irish) please get the DSM and see if you can self-diagnose for Paranoid Personality Disorder. Judging from this post you seem to fit the definition like a hand fits into a glove.

    If you don't see it on the first read give it a second one with the assumption in mind that your perception of what has happened is wrong.

  • How are there so many of them
  • [...] a public institution is really not a great example of the general population [...]

    Which I touched upon in my disclaimer, but in some ways it is a great example. Public institutions are defined by the general population, indirectly through their representatives creating the rules that govern them, and directly through contact with the public at large. Now if all our institutions still use this very outdated technology, and you can have trouble convincing them - during a global pandemic mind you - that using email is just as safe as using fax (so not safe at all basically), then that speaks to a larger mindset in the general population.

    Many in the general public are also a lot quicker, some might even say careless, with adopting new technology of course. But as a society we are rather slow, and there are surprisingly many individuals who are hesitant or entirely resistant to adopting new technology. The fediverse usage is a bubble in a bubble here.

    The internet infrastructure is another good example for this on the societal level, as there were plans in the 1980ies [!] to lay out a glass fibre network between every publicly used building in the country, which would have gotten us a good part of the way towards adopting this new material at scale. But in the end it was deemed unnecessary and too expensive and the project got canned (mixed in with rumours of "close friendship" between the chancellor and a major copper producer). Instead now we have people running around thirty years later and collecting signatures at the door for last-mile fibre network projects that seldom make quorum and thus almost never materialise public funding.

  • How are there so many of them
    1. [...] But also how are Germans technologically behind regarding common personal life?

    I bet you wherever in Germany you are, if you go to the website of your local city government right now they will have a still active fax number in their contact information. I guarantee it. Well if they have a website that is.

    Which is a bit silly as an example but highlights the central problem, which is that adoption of new technology happens at a glacial pace, especially in public institutions. There are many reasons for that of course, some good, like the aforementioned inclination towards privacy, some bad like whatever allows fax machines to still be around.

    And don't get me started on internet infrastructure... In an international comparison we certainly aren't leading the field regarding adoption of new technologies.

    It has already been removed again

    Edit: Stickying some relevant "war reporting" from the comments to the post body, in a hopefully somewhat chronological order. Thanks for diving into the trenches everybody!

    So the "and convicted felon" part of the screenshot that is highlighted was in the first sentence of the article about Donald Trump. After the jury verdict it was added and then removed again pretty much immediately several times over.

    Then the article got editing restrictions and a warning about them (warning has been removed again):

    !

    During these restrictions there is a "RfC" (Request for Comments) thread held on the talk page of the article where anybody can voice their opinion on the matter:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Donald_Trump#RfC_on_use_of_%22convicted_felon%22_in_first_sentence

    Money quote:

    > There's a weird argument for \\slight support\\. Specifically because if we don't include it in the first paragraph somewhere, either the first sentence or in a new second sentence, there are going to be edit wars for the next 2-6 years. Guninvalid (talk) 22:01, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

    There is a second battlefield going on in the infobox on the side (this has also been removed again at this point in time):

    !

    The article can apparently only be edited by certain more trusted users at the moment, and warnings about editing "contentious" parts have been added to the article source:

    !

    To summarise, here is a map of the status quo on the ground roughly a day after the jury verdict:

    Lemmy should trigger Firefox's translation feature based on the browser/instance/post/comment language settings

    So I have tried to search this community, Lemmy in general, and the GitHub issues on LemmyNet/lemmy repo, but didn't immediately see anything discussing this.

    It would be really cool if Lemmy would trigger Firefox's new translation icon in the address bar based on the browser/OS/Lemmy language as compared to the post/comment language.

    So i.e. if my browser/OS language is English and the post is flagged German or contains comments that are flagged as German, the Firefox address bar should show the little translation beta icon in the address bar, because Firefox can translate between these two languages.

    Bonus points if it doesn't offer German translations if I'm logged in and have set German as one of my languages in the Lemmy settings.

    (by the way the dialogue always adds "Undetermined" regardless of if it being selected in the settings or not, not sure if that's intended)

    Hope you guys can figure it out. Right now the Firefox button doesn't seem to pop up regardless of which Lemmy instance I visit and which language is set where, but it does appear for a lot of other websites.

    And while I'm here, thank you for all you do for us users and the Fediverse/ActivityPub in general. It's much appreciated! :)

    But this... does put a smile on my face

    Context:

    Somebody made a post promoting the proprietary search engine they are working on, claiming in the post that it "would make Stallman smile". In a comment below the post they said that they made the statement about Stallman to "drive engagement". The post was later removed for promoting proprietary software.

    Image description:

    At the top is a screenshot from the modlog saying:

    > Removed Post We're building a search engine to compete with DuckDuckGo. No JS, no WASM, no spying. Just a statically generated results page. > reason: Comm rule 2: Don’t promote proprietary software

    Below that is an image of Stallman smiling.
