EDIT: dbzer0 had nothing to do with this ban, it was done by a Lemmy.World admin.

~~I updated my post after another user stated that it wasn't lemmy.world admins that performed the ban but the db0 team that did. I can't say with certainty that's actually the case since the modlog is pretty opaque and I don't have full knowledge of how [federated] actions are propagated & displayed.~~

~~I (incorrectly?) assumed since those communities had existed for so long on the dbzer0 instance they had at least tacit approval from the admins there and were in communication with them enough that a full ban wouldn't occur -- when I saw the removal in the modlog I didn't even consider that possibility.~~

~~Sorry for kicking up drama here if the Lemmy.World team had no part in this :(~~

No hardware required, also not some new technique suddenly discovered:

AK47 bump fire

I actually just finished it, wish there were more episodes. There was a lot more humor than I was expecting which really helped to offset the depressing aspects. Yeah, I really can't imagine the government supporting the show aside from it portraying the US as an absolutely dominating force.

From a casting angle I think it's kinda funny Jarhead had a Sarsgaard and Generation Kill had a Skarsgård. I also kept thinking the Rolling Stone writer (Lee Tergesen) looked like a relative of John Michael Higgins.

Thanks for the reminder to watch that series. I liked The Wire and We Own This City by David Simon so I'm assuming it is a more thoughtful show than the title and imagery suggests.

Definitely a carefully constructed and insightful post intended for humans to engage with.

Maybe if the US Army had cooperated it wouldn't have been so terrible! At least it provides a chance to see Phil Hartman.

And rarely you get to see gems like this from the movie Sgt. Bilko (1996):

Thanks for the summary image and link to a new channel to check out! I love that the video just immediately jumped into topic without any fluff or calls to action at all. Likely going to try my luck with a Granitestone griddle to replace an ancient one with some gouges around the edges that's probably giving me hyper-cancer.

Just a heads up, this is another spam account pushing a garbage website. @xmod@leminal.space [<-now banned] & @xmod@lemm.ee are both newly created accounts linking only to this site.

Why the sudden switch in address names? Why is the contact us page just a gmail account and no additional info or even a generic web form? Unlike the other sections, the "about" page isn't in English at all.

There's a great (and short) video about encryption back-doors by CGP Grey: "Should all locks have keys? Phones, Castles, Encryption, and You." (Piped link).

"No matter how much we might wish it, there's no way to build a digital lock that only angels can open and demons cannot. Anyone saying otherwise is either ignorant of the mathematics or less of an angel than they appear."

EDIT: I still hate you Piped bot.
