Tbf, manipulating masses through lies and propaganda itself is a form of robbing them of informed consent, so even they are not actually "fine" with him, they're just not paying attention to the right sources and are still being lied to/propagandized.

But also he has the lowest approval rating of any president in history, so that's a lot of "nobody." Also three(?) high profile assassination attempts? Sound like a guy "nobody" cares about to you? Seems like at least 3 people do. Constant protests, yadda yadda, yeah sure, nobody cares, that's why they're protesting him, "Get out or don't, whatever, who cares?" Yup, that's what all the signs say.

Nobody cares? I guess that's why nobody talks about it.

"Constantly you say?"

A) They should be

B) Cameras won't stop shit if what they're worried about came to pass, they'll collect evidence that will be largely unusable, because it'll be crowds they need to worry about, not "Steve."

Yes "stop killing games" but also hack that Vita today, easy as hell to do and you can get every PSVita, PSP, PS1, and PSM game, and DLCs, running on it off of a microSD card using sd2vita adapters, all downloaded directly to your Vita from [Redacted] for free, and you can also play a few ports like Fallout 1 and 2, Postal, and if you overclock it, even Half Life. There's also emulators for genesis, dreamcast, NES, SNES, N64, GB/C/A, and a couple others I can't remember. It fucking rules tbh.

Woof lmao. That had to hurt.

Well

A) Close it properly then. We have one of those at work, old worn out gaskets, fridge pops open when you close the top freezer, and somehow we can manage to figure out how to close it back up every time.

B) Replace your gaskets.

Y'all just leaving fridges open all day where you are? In my neck of the woods "Stop staring and pick something, you're letting all the cold out."

Tbf "We're having a nice dinner, do we have to talk about the horrors of the holocaust, again? Can we talk about something nice for a few minutes?" is a valid want.

Especially in a world inundated with 24/7 news cycles constantly feeding news to make people scared for ratings, and an internet consolidated into six fucking websites full of those scared people posting about those same things, and all art being made by those scared people so it also contains allusions to the same sentiment, sometimes you just want to talk about that cute thing your cat did earlier, what fun book you're reading, how cool salamanders are, whatever, and that's fine.

I hate to bother you guys with something this lame but I've been searching for weeks and I've been giving her all she's got captain, but I can't find this image anywhere.

The image in question is a "meme" (twitter post screencapped and cropped), the subject of the post was a metaphor for worker burnout using the warp drives as the metaphorical device. The basics were "the enterprise can only sustain max warp for X hours, it usually runs around warp Y. You can't work at 100% all the time." but y'know a lot more eloquent.

My boss needs to be accidentally sent this meme, "I totally meant to send it to a friend.."

Issues editing location (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hey guys I'm hoping you have some ideas on what I'm doing wrong (without me doxxing myself posting the actual edit..lol).

I have uploaded and updated a few POIs near me but so far one and only one refuses to show in OSMand+. It's a "Warehouse" so I put that in the field where "Store" would go, I added the business name (let's say "Goku Enterprises"), and the street name/num. My gut says maybe something to do with "warehouse" but OSM's site says that's a cromulent tag, I'm sure it's something obvious I just haven't learned yet.

Thanks in advance to anyone with any help!

Turns out catbox is blocked by like everyone, are there any good private alternatives that are not blocked by the masses that I can use to send files under 2gb with a "delete after X hours" feature?

Before you say Lufi, it refuses to finish requesting the file on the DL end, times out every time, on a 22.15MB file no less.

Any help would be appreciated. Trying to send a relative who "doesn't want to turn off her wifi" on her iPhone lest "it mess something up" a video. No shot I can get her to log into her router and disable the stupid "security" hijack that blocks catbox.

I want to get a camera that I can use mostly for nature pics and graffiti pics out the window of a moving train, and maybe a butt or two (consensually ofc). Yes I know I'm weird. That said I guess I'll need a "fast" one for the train, if that is the correct terminology (I think for shutter speed, yes?) The only other requirement is I will not download programs or apps beyond FOSS, preferably something I can just take the SD card out of and plug it into my laptop (linux anyway, most programs don't like me).

I don't see myself making this my living (and if I do then I can always upgrade) just as a hobby and maybe some side hustle if the opportunity knocks, so I don't need the best camera, but I would rather buy nice not twice (unless I leave "hobbyist" and move to "professional"). That said I was thinking maybe a DSLR would be enough for me (if not, I could be persuaded to mirrorless, just trying to keep costs down)? I've heard good things about the Canon Rebel, idk. I'm not really trying to go over $1k (and even cheaper than that would be even better) especially if I have to then buy a lens or two.

Any recommendations are greatly appreciated, I have no idea what I'm doing lol.

Best Mastodon App? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I'm looking for android, but I suppose iOS welcome for those with iPhones.

I've been using Fedilab, but I have a bad habit of not checking super often and so Fedilab reaches a point where it won't say "load more" and leaves gaps in my feed, which I'd like to fix. Also was using it for pixelfed, but since that acct was deleted for inactivity I'm not using the multi-service function anymore, but multi-mastodon-acct support is still needed. Used Tusky previously but don't remember why I switched (like two years ago).

Been a couple years, so I figured I'd see what people like using these days and try out a few.

Easiest way to contribute? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 9 months ago by ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com to c/osm@feddit.uk

Oh neat an OSM community, and I find it organically two days after I decide I need to figure out how to contribute!

Well so my area needs some help, POI data can be spotty but moreso I have a few newly built apartment complexes nearby that (while they're visible on the map,) need their streets named and buildings numbered.

What is the easiest way for me to add this information to OSM? I'm aware of OSMAND+ and Everydoor apps for android through my searching yesterday and I've downloaded both (well I downloaded OSMAND+ when Magic Earth went shitty but just to use as a gps) but that's as far as I've gotten.

Hey Monero people, I hope it's ok if I ask a few questions (and ok that I'm gonna crosspost this to monero.town even though you're phasing it out because the subbed number is higher), I trust you more than the LLM and ad filled search results.

What's the safest way to get monero from fiat anon in Current Year?

  • Buy, say, ETH kyc, and transfer?
  • Hodl Hodl or localmonero or something? (recs welcome)
  • other? Please share preferred

I'd rather burn a few bucks to not get ripped off, if it's reasonable, but I'm open to (I've heard you can somewhere) buy a gift card and do a transfer with escrow.

With Cake Wallet, I rolled a random name for my xmr wallet, would I lose anon if I named it a pre-used screen name(+xmr, btc, etc) and used subkeys? Who all can see the wallet name?

If I do end up with some kyc monero, what exactly does that mean to me? I still use it anon but have to pay taxes or something, or is it like, "now we know who is associated with this acct and you paid your weedman in XMR so now we send you to prison?" Should I have one wallet, kyc that one, and then send it to a second I keep clean, is that reasonable? Can I only accept non-kyc monero to my acct if I intend to stay anon? I'm so very new to this.

I'm really not planning on dodging taxes or buying/selling weed, actually mostly planning on using it as an inconvenient but private cashapp-type replacement (prob have like, btc, xmr, and eth wallets for variety just in case and store the funds as btc and xmr), but I'm privacy minded which is what attracts me to XMR to begin with, I'd like to plan for buying a gun that shoots fentanyl bullets on the darkweb and then in reality I'm paying my friend for watching my cat, or being paid for watching their dogs.

Lastly, is there anything else you think I'm too inexperienced to know to ask, but should be told? I mean consider me dumb, I don't know shit, I'm new to crypto entirely not just xmr or cake.
