But on the horizon, surrounding the shoppers, came the deafening roar of chickens in choppers

I believe its based on a group of people on twitter who wrote stuff like “putting on his jumper and smelling his colon”. Similar humor to the yahoo answers “am I pergenat” stuff
Sometimes we need to read books/web pages to understand things. This is a pretty complex subject and while our friend above was asking for a privacy friendly alternative (which in this situation I’m not even sure how you summarise into a few words tbh), the poster answered by saying go read work from the EFF. They’re a great resource and great explainers, and they’ve written extensively on this topic.
Idk, should everyone be given the answers to everything, or is telling someone how to find the answer not okay? I’m of the opinion its necessary when a topic is difficult.
Admittedly, they could have said that as well, but I think it was clear the person asking isnt operating in good faith given their response to me. They’re a troll.
What if they said “this book explains what you want to know” and you still dont go and read the book? Cos that’s what’s happening.
Google it. Learn to find information yourself. Its pretty cool what information is out there.
Its your responsibility to educate yourself, not societies. You’re not asking for help, you’re asking for tutoring. The previous commenter answered your question anyway by directing you to the EFF. Its not their fault you dont want to put effort in and go read the work of an organisation whose entire purpose is to answer the question you asked.
This is the real goal. How far can a human and their exoskeleton/cybernetic modifications jump? Adding this to the science wishlist right after hoverboards

Linux@lemmy.ml•Windows 10 refugees flock to Linux in what devs call their "biggest launch ever"English
4·3 months agoSo we’re bashing the people who installed Linux now if they used something else first? What, if they’ve ever used windows we should send them to the Gulag? Wtf is this take? Like hey you dumb fucking person who finally figured out how to get away from the corporate software you were taught to use in high school, you are FuCkInG iGnOrAnT for putting yourself in this position in the first place!!1!
Let’s not talk about the multi billion dollar industry spent locking people into an ecosystem from day 1, because blaming high schoolers and teenagers for not switching to an OS best know for running web servers is an awesome use of our time.
Speaking from experience: no one thinks about operating systems as much as we do. We are not the norm. Most people don’t want to use the computer to begin with, but conceded its faster than hand writing everything. The guy who paved my driveway will never install Arch, because he only uses the computer to get paid. My office’s cleaner doesn’t understand how computers can even be unsafe.
When I went to primary school we had windows computers. Same thing in high school. In uni, because I did comp sci, I used Linux and found it was better for me. 350 people went through first year with me. Most of them continued using Windows, although a good chunk used Mac too. Like 10 of us used Linux. It is easier not to switch and that’s not going to change. So can we stop having a go at people for not having the same interests as us, because that’s the only difference.
Huh, my favourite part of using C and C++ was the ease of doing it all on Linux. Didn’t even need to install a compiler, just write code, run compile and laugh my way through endless segfaults because I am very bad at those languages

Technology@lemmy.world•Australian Government gets a taste of what everyday people have to deal with in terms of data breaches as Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's mobile phone number released onlineEnglish
5·3 months agoYeah so targeting individuals or specific organisations is pretty hard. It sounds dumb but how do you get someone’s phone number if they don’t give it to you? Its hard unless you’re determined tbh which most people aren’t.
Most hackers setup watering hole style attacks, or use phishing which is roughly the same concept. Basically they cast a wide net and see what they can grab, like the browser credentials of Debra from accounting who knows everything about compound interest and nothing about opening an
.exefile in an email. There are some big game hunting groups, and the LinkedIn breach made some waves (see the fappening), but your run of the mill discord-as-a-c2 style hacker isn’t going after rich people.Someone “hacking a phone” likely put a kitchen scale iPhone app on the app store, which when first opened asks for permissions for microphone, camera, text messages, contacts and file storage, and sends all that information to Argentina for a week or so until their app gets banned.
Also, the most likely person to hack your phone seems to be someone in your household, abusive parent or spouse sorta thing. Most common devices to get hacked are laptops, usually windows. Its just kinda hard to hack a phone. Unless you know a lot about compressed image formats and the iPhone messages app apparently because NSO made like 5 zero days in a row out of that.
Hi, I’m engaged to someone who studies chickpea and other legumes. Shitloads of money goes into agriculture every year and from my understanding, what you’re describing is being done by some brilliant people (I’m a bit biased). However there’s so many concerns around GMOs doing damage to the environment that it is tightly regulated. Doubly also, Americans don’t have the same ready access to grocery stores that
otherfirst world countries have.Plus the equivalent of flat earthers exist that believe that GMOs will kill us all and we need to go back to eating only what nature created (somewhat hyperbole, there are valid concerns but people have been irrational).
An example is that chickpea and other legumes reintroduce nitrogen into soil after the soil loses vitality, which makes chickpea a good intermediate crop that can be grown in between others. Its high in nutrients and has good yield. So yeah, stop eating corn and eat legumes/chickpea/hummus.
(I’m not the molecular biologist so if I got stuff wrong, sorry, I will pay more attention when my partner speaks)

news@lemmings.world•Watch Live: Jeffrey Epstein survivors hold news conference with lawmakersEnglish
2·5 months agoEpstein who pleaded guilty on prostitution charges in Florida, was facing trial on federal sex trafficking charges when he died in federal custody in 2019 in what numerous investigations deemed a suicide.
A suicide in the sense no one else used their body weight to hang him, sure. Do I believe he went willingly after the video tampering bullshit of a few months ago? No. No I don’t.












They didnt have time to playtest the game. So the AI can fire faster than a human. It was one of the things they sorted for Halo CE but never got to due to constraints. It is literally the hardest Halo game because of this. I think on legendary youre even the weakest character entity in the game.
