And the White House staff says that they can’t keep up with Biden running around the room.

Edit:

Is this losing son?

Ooh I’ve never heard of it. netcat I mean, cause I’ve heard of Linux 😆.

The File Transfer Protocol is just very antiquated, while scp is simple. Possibly netcat is too:-).

Then switch to use sth more like scp ASAP? :-)

Really interesting article. Here are a couple highlights but this one is worth clicking on to read in its entirety, even the original to give it the clicks it needs.

This means air pollution has overtaken tobacco use and poor diet to become the second leading risk factor for early death, behind only high blood pressure, it said.

Nearly every person in the world breathes unhealthy levels of air pollution every day, the report found.

I found the parts about the “spikes” especially interesting.

The fact that it hasn’t done that at all yet - waiting until the tech is actually ready before forcing it on us - is already an enormously good sign:-).

Bold to assume that I use Windows at all… (except when 100% mandatory at my job)

Though as time goes on I wonder how long Mac OSX will take to become more like it, as iOS has already long ago jumped the shark.

Not dealing with those matters properly. Even though you semi-want to, and really really need to, but just can’t/won’t.

Compared to Assembly language, C++ is fantastic! :-P

And isn’t testing even more so!?

Explained in this post to !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world.

Supposedly it is a pejorative label applied to authoritarian communists, particularly Marxist–Leninist socialists. I presume it is the “pejorative” part that people do not like, b/c many of the places labelled as tankies by others unabashedly do precisely that!

I’ve only used the term twice myself, both kinda self-questioning what it even means, but if it is truly pejorative, then I should stop regardless.

They died on 24 April.

I read your other comment too - absolutely a lot of little “shame if something were to happen there” events going on lately. So the reporters gotta keep the clicks coming, since the murder of a mayor apparently isn’t enough anymore.

Also, it would be a shame if something were to happen to all those judges and jurors for Donald Trump’s various trials as well… And the people who count and verify elections too. And anyone else to be named at a future date for any reason whatsoever. Or possibly (if anyone remembers the Four Seasons… Landscaping & Gardening incident) others who happen to have a similar enough name. Or whatever, bc it’s a Tuesday.

Somewhere “above” (below?) us all, the rich are fighting, and the common man (& woman, & child, etc.) are getting caught up in it all.

To increase the number of people who would click on the article to read it.

I think you meant to say that it is CONTROLLED by a small minority of people; however it must be ACCEPTED by the majority or else it has no value at all.

Right, civilization might survive… maybe, possibly, hopefully, just like if we all were to play Russian Roulette. Still doesn’t sound like a smart idea to me to mess with something known to be so dangerous.

At the absolute minimum the changes will be cruel, and hundreds of thousands of people are already dying from each of many individual events like hurricanes outside of their normal seasons, at intensities never before seen in a particular area.

So my thought: at the very least we could care? Except I was wrong - we can go lower, so much lower. We do have the satisfaction though that whatever comes, we brought it upon ourselves.

Yeah, the increasing likelihood of Russia or China using nukes to get their way was what I was thinking, especially with talk that the Western nations might be giving Ukraine the go-ahead to use those weapons to strike within Russia itself.

The plastic sperm issue actually doesn’t sound so bad in comparison, bc fertilization treatments might work even if needing to extract outside of the body first. Overall, it still sounds less dangerous to me than e.g. a young woman living in Florida these days without access to money to leave the state for medical care.

I frankly have no idea what to expect about climate change at this point - we’ve blown far past all the targets and seem now to be in uncharted territory, according to what little I understand. I do notice far fewer birds, bees and other insect life, and I recall hearing how in the Antarctic a few months back there was a single day where the temperature spiked by +70 degrees F (~40°C). I can only imagine what that would do to e.g. Texas if it went from already 100 to then 170 degrees, even if only for a few hours. “Coral” is the least of the issue iirc, they were (by virtue of being sensitive) mainly indicators of the actual events, which we won’t know until we see it, but scientists are saying that it’s no bueno. Anyway, it seems like the changes could wipe out all mammalian life on the planet, but then again maybe not!?:-P i.e. it could be really bad, but it could be less so, we just don’t know, and as you said, we mostly barely care (“we” meaning voters, so chiefly Boomers & evangelical Christians, as Trump and the Republican party’s biggest bases).

And yet we seem to care a great deal about tHe EcOnOmY tHo - so it’s a choice of prioritization to pick what “matters” to us.

Thanks for sharing the link - TIL something!:-)
