Let's be clear: he raped kids.

Trump RAPED kids.

RAPED.

But will those concerns turn into anything actionable?

I got a ping to send someone a million dollars?

Okay, but here me out. Maybe coffee makers shouldn't have a way to generate data.

Is there a cultural aspect that is not being stated? Because if there is a cultural expectation that you attend the wedding, that's important context.

I also get the sense you are on the younger side. Your brother can't "turn you against your mother" without your consent.

If you want to go, go. Talk to your mom and tell her it's nothing against her. If she has a problem, that's her issue.

If you don't want to go, tell your brother you don't want to go. If he gives you shit about it, again that's his issue.

I don't understand why you care about your co-workers' opinion. Just tell them you don't want to go. If they ask, tell them it's because your brother has a grudge against your mom and then let your brother deal with it. If they ask what the grudge is, tell them to ask him.

At the end of the day, it's not your problem.

Unless it is because you're leaving things out in your post.

how they are supposed to work is that the loan is provided to the company under certain conditions and some of those conditions include directions on how the money needs to be spent. Repayment terms provide enough runway to give companies time to recover and pay back the loans.

How they actually work is that these companies lobby Congress and often have very lax oversight. At best, loans received by the government are often risk free and allows a company to spend money they otherwise not have. For example, they might have to pay a CEO their bonus.

The only oversight is the American public and we just don't have the balls anymore to do what we have done historically to enforce a broken social contract.

It's legal when a Republican President does it.

Super duper secret illegal when it's a Democrat.

Democrats showing yet again that they would rather lose support from their most progressive voters than their most moderate swing voters.

What is left to clear? Nixon literally got pardoned by Ford.

The only way to make it clearer is if you remove the indictment. Maybe that's what Trump is trying to set up? Remove the idea that Nixon even did anything wrong? To pave the path for his impeachments can be "removed"?

Case might have been thrown out but you still have to be in jail and hire a lawyer.

I was actually talking about this with a friend of mine. The sad part is that people who use AI bots for smut are being conditioned that humans will react like their bot.

And as a result, creating more red pills/incels that think that people will just drop their pants at their prompts.

The fact that these services are so popular is very concerning and really hope that people find the connection with other people that they are looking for.

You know, if they did nothing wrong, there's nothing for them to worry about.

 

I updated my Pixel 10 Pro with the latest Pixel software (BP4A.260105.004.E1) and noticed that notifications for things like Signal, news alerts, discord, etc. even though the notifications are there when I pull down the notification bar.

I initially thought it was the new notification "groups" but turned that off.

I don't have "Do Not Disturb" set since my phone is perpetually turned on silent.

The odd thing is that they selectively show up throughout the day. Some conversations show while others don't.

This seems like a setting something I need to change so that I see the icons. Does else have this problem?

 

Not sure if this belongs here but felt it was appropriate.

 

Not sure if this is the right community so if not, let me know.

I could have sworn I saved it but can't seem to find it. The lemmy post was about a website that would forward URLs but the presenting URL was something akin to https://thehacxorgroup.org/load/virus/exec/run.bat and you could have that forward to a rickroll or something.

Ideally, I'm looking for the post itself, but happy to take just the website that provides the service.

Thanks!

 

I've started seeing more shit like this, even TVs in exam rooms with ads like this.

 

Ever since we've gone to hybrid working, I've been having to deactivate work notifications and enable game notifications back and forth and it's driving me nuts.

I have a Pixel 9 Pro XL and would like a way to allow app notifications to come through based on a variable that I can control. At my disposal I have Tasker and Home Assistant but can't find a way to perform automations to enable or disable specific app notifications.

Is there a way to do this? I have to imagine other people have this problem.

 

Which is it?!

This headline came up in my news feed, from a very dubious source so I decided to investigate.

Headline after headline, many from identical sources, about how Walmart and Bank of America are either going to stop taking $1 bills or keep accepting them. The headlines read like a FUD article and I refuse to click through to read the details.

I can't find a reputable news source for this story so I'm assuming it's fake news.

It shouldn't be this easy to manipulate news feeds.

 

I've been searching around for a copy of the Resolute Letter that Trump left for Biden. The letters are typically released within a few days of entering office but this was never done because Biden wanted to talk to Trump first before doing so.

It's been almost four years. Surely it's been done by now and I can't seem to find any article with the letter or anything on the official White House website. I'm tempted to submit a FOIA request for it but wasn't sure where to start.

 

fmovies has been gone almost a month. I should have added "FBI" up there but really they used FBI to shoot down the service, not be like them.

I don't understand when these companies are going to learn that sharing their IP is going to get them more money than being so fractured.

I started using sudo-lol and seems okay. Streaming can be hinky at times but it works for most of the things I want to watch.

I know that torrenting can be a thing but sometimes I just want to watch and not deal with a whole finding a torrent, download, and then watch workflow.

 

I know it occasionally has service disruptions, but it usually comes back up after a day or so. Fmovies has been down for almost the entire week for me.

Anyone else having issues?

 

Good day self-hosters! I'm not exactly sure what to call what I'm looking for besides a "clipboard". Let me describe my problem and what my ideal solution is.

At work, I get a lot of slack DMs that ask for the same information. It's not consistent to the point I would just pin the information in my Windows 11 clipboard. But it's often enough that I'd prefer to give people the same information each time it's asked.

I'm limited in what I can build on my work computer. In an ideal world, I'd do what Gilfoyle did and make and bot but I lack the time and skills for such a task. Right now, I solve this with a very long notepad, which is subject to copy/paste errors. If I don't highlight everything correctly or if I accidentally copy over an existing line. That kind of thing.

What I was thinking was a very simple website where the items I'm copying are in tiles that can be tagged and searched. Once I find what I'm looking for, I can click the button to copy it to my clipboard and then go on with my life.

Due to restrictions on my work computer, I cannot host containers or host a website, though a fully self-contained HTML page with javascript I could do.. Ideally this is something that can be build using Github Pages build with Jekyll but so far, I haven't found a theme that mimics the behavior I'm looking for and I lack the time (though not the skills) to build it.

I'd prefer the github route so that I can share the page with others on my team who get asked similar questions.

I am also able to deploy a website via Github Pages (with .nojekyll).

I have to think something similar to this already exists but I imagine the restrictions on having no backend might be the challenge. Love to hear your thoughts!

Edit: added context for Gilfoyle

Thank you all for the great suggestions. I should have added in this post that my work does not allow software with Copyleft (Don't get me started. I'm a strong copyleft advocate and it annoys me that my company only takes and never gives back to OSS). I'm going to give TiddlyWiki out. License is friendly with my work, seems simple enough to run.

That said, Logseq seems to be pretty interesting as well. Might try this out on my on machine to see if I like it.
