It absolutely is. We only encourage gun and violence culture in real life, especially by authoritarian figures and their representatives. Allowing such in virtual spaces where no one can actually be hurt or killed runs counter to our patriotic ideals.

…well I’m definitely turning that on for my Linux machine then. Thanks for the tip.

I think this is something macOS does best — using shift+option hyphen is a bit quicker than alt+0151.

Odd, I see them used all the time, and I’m neither. So I guess either my experience is an outlier, everyone I talk to is secretly an LLM, or maybe the meme is pushing an easy conclusion because people in general are bad at picking up on LLM responses and want an easy punctuation mark so they don’t have to think.

They’re pretty trivial to make in any OS — having a dedicated key isn’t necessary.

Weirdly it usually turns hyphens into en dashes instead of em dashes from what I’ve seen, which makes no sense at all.

This is how he responds to everything, including but not limited to librarians, airport security, and answers to questions he has asked someone directly.

The only setting on his conversational style is angry old white man.

Eh, I’d allow it; it’s tangentially related and a complaint about capitalism. Win-win.

I mean sure, if you just want to skip Bearshare

[email protected] exists, think this made it there too.

This information is at the ready — for the people who actually need to know it (i.e., the actual chain of command, not self-appointed billionaires of made up departments).

Oh geez. I’m so used to reading sexual trauma records from the DoD that I just assume immediately. Sorry about that, my bad entirely.

In-service death tends to be an almost automatic grant of service connected death benefits, likely only burial in this case. DoD failed this person. That doesn’t mean that the VA will.

Edit: I managed to read the article and still get the country wrong.

Not much of one, but…

1. He’ll appeal.
2. Even if it’s permanent and the other kids are less shitty than the eldest, at the end of the day they’ll probably keep the propaganda going because they like being rich.

Plenty of folks will be with you on this, me included. Tried a few, didn’t like them, nbd.

US politics is temporarily not allowed as a topic. This question appears to be about Ukrainian nuclear defense capabilities, which would not qualify as US politics.

That game was the most fun I’ve ever had playing a video game. Lots of other great games have happened, but the low barrier to entry (buy-to-play instead of subscription) and the reward for slotting a useful 8 skills that worked well with each other and well with the other 7 or so people in your group cannot be beat.

I’ve done some (grunt-level) work in chemical packaging. I didn’t see in the article if it specifies, but the place I worked handled tons of different types of chemicals and they’d all have their own precautions needed. If this place was the same (big if), the sprinklers are probably standard for fire, and the chemical in question should be delivered sealed in watertight drums and only opened/handled inside a small room-sized fume hood. We had specialized rooms for things like spontaneously combustible chemicals and poisonous inhalation hazards — those chemicals were never unsealed outside those rooms.

All that goes out the window I assume if this is the only chemical they handle.

I think we agree; the past is over.

Tried three or so before settling on Arctic. It does a the best job I’ve found of making the most of different iPad orientations and screen splits, and that’s the where I use Lemmy the most.
