See I knew I didn't have to fucking read it

(⁠╯⁠ರ⁠ ⁠~⁠ ⁠ರ⁠)⁠╯⁠︵⁠ ⁠┻⁠━⁠┻

Why would that even be included in the summary to begin with? It doesn't make people feel good or bad to read it?

It's just repulsive unmarketable information.

Why the fuck should I read the rest of the article? I know I'll get no objective or subjective value from it, if I want the bottom of the bone dry fucking barrel I would have to read the court transcripts.

I DON'T HAVE TIME TO ASK CHATGPT TO FIND THAT FOR ME!! I have to socialize with my friends and touch grass and be healthy!

Honestly OP at this point you shouldn't've posted this thread. Lemmy isn't going to fail because of lack of engagement and low user count, it's going to fail because there are no more worthwhile links to post.

If you go to the complaints section, it's a form that sends a letter to your local state representative

One thing I always stay weary of is all the details that were removed from the court records to fit it into a news report. Like you can't include everything and what I find out whenever I look deeper then it's not as horrible as what I thought it was.. then next time I see an article like this I don't read it bc I already know that this article is going to be just as bad as the last ones.

It's kinda like 'wolf' has been cried to me basically all my life.. like what kind of emergency/bad-thing do I actually need to respond too.

"the natural consequences of your own decisions" is the best answer I have to most things

Exactly that, if I change a pixel then the cryptographic signature breaks

[–] danhab99@programming.dev 3 points 2 weeks ago (10 children)

The NFTs tried to solve this problem already and it didn't work. You can change the hash/sig of a video file by just changing one pixel on one frame, meaning you just tricked the computer, not the people who use it.

Why are these apps being distributed on app stores

Why are these apps not PWAs with an app store deployment wrapper???

The windows machine was keeping secrets and refusing to do what I tell it

I want to run some code, let's have a discussion about admin privileges and finding the correct shell app and oh shit "something went wrong"

Linux just doesn't say no, if I do something wrong it tells me exactly why it was wrong. So I guess visibility is why I jumped

[–] danhab99@programming.dev 1 points 2 weeks ago

It's basically a pattern of:

Me: I have a problem and I need help fixing it

Other: ok but what's the problem

Me: I can't do this for some reason

Other: you're wrong for wanting to do that when you can just do this instead besides you're dumb and stupid and wrong and you should just deal

So I'd just keep changing things until my computer did what I wanted. I'd be fine using a Mac or windows if and only if it was ok to ask for help (meaning that I got to a point with a problem where I can't move forward anymore myself and the only 2 options are to give up or ask for someone to contribute something that makes it so I can make progress)

and are making sure to treat you nicer because of it

That's a bad thing

If I could trust that this is the reason behind a person's behavior then we wouldn't be having this conversation. But there are so many potentially malicious reasons to be extra sugary sweet to someone different. Plus it's infantalizing to be "treated nicer" like I'm not a kid. I don't want everyone to change their tone I just want to participate and have fun. If political issues were bothering me then I'd go to a political group that centers my lgbt-ness, that's my choice

It's the bread. Everything else is healthy

 

I’ve noticed a pattern in my friendships that I’m struggling with, and I’d love to hear other people’s perspectives.

Whenever I suggest something I genuinely want to do with friends, the plans always get changed around — often to fit schedules or budgets — until they no longer resemble what I originally suggested. By the time we meet up, I usually don’t enjoy the activity itself, though I still value being with my friends.

This cycle tends to repeat:

I suggest something → it gets reshaped into something I don’t want → we meet up but I’m bored/miserable → then we don’t talk for 6–12 months until someone breaks the silence.

Recently, I’ve made a change: I started doing the things I enjoy on my own, without waiting for friends. For the first time, I’ve actually been happy doing what I love — but it also means I’m doing them alone.

Part of why I’m trying this is because I’ve lost friends in the past from being visibly miserable all the time when I adapted to things I didn’t actually like. Honestly, it feels like for most of my life I never really chose my friends — I just adapted to the people around me. Now, I’d really like to choose friends who genuinely align with what I enjoy.

So here’s my question: Is it wrong to want to choose my friends? How do you balance doing what makes you happy with maintaining friendships, especially if your happiness and your current friend group don’t line up?

Any thoughts, advice, or personal experiences would be really helpful.

ai disclaimerI'm going through a lot and instead of just dumping my feelings here I thought it would make more sense to have Chatgpt handle it.

Here's the source chat but if you want to cite my words I'd prefer you just cite my post instead.

Regardless I stand behind Chatgpt's output as my own words and am accountable for it as though I wrote it.

 

"What's your go-to tool as a programmer these days?"

My brain, same as it always has been!

 

"Rust's compiler prevents common bugs" So does skill. No offense to you, but, this trope is getting so tiresome. If you like the language then go ahead and use it. What is it with the rust crowd that they have to come acrosslike people trying to convert your religion at your front door?

 

I don't think that casting a range of bits as some other arbitrary type "is a bug nobody sees coming".

C++ compilers also warn you that this is likely an issue and will fail to compile if configured to do so. But it will let you do it if you really want to.

That's why I love C++

 

I came here to vent; I'm sick of being told that I'm non-confrontational and I avoid confrontation, I don't. I avoid confrontation with you because you need to be correct so I'd rather not waste time by arguing with you and instead just find a way to solve the problem in which you're correct and the problem is solved. And it's objectively wrong to say about me that I avoid confrontation because I do have regular confrontation with specific people who do end it.

But if you think conflict builds character you're not going to get any of that character building with me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ sorry nobody owes it you which means no one owes you a confrontation which means I'm not avoiding confrontation.

 

I know he used to have that TV show I never watched but Pam mentioned it on the office.

I remember seeing him in home alone but I was a small kid, I didn't get who he was.

Hell I even remember liking Elon Musk the celeb for abit.

So why was Trump ever cool or popular or famous?

 

He won't sit on a couch next to me or by himself. He might hang out with me on my bed but 80% of the time he's on the floor.

Is he hot?

Is he sad?

Can I do something to help him?

He's 2 btw

 

I feel like I'd use my file browser if it was easier to get around. ctrp-p like zoxide/fzf would be game changing.

Edit: sry tbh I wasn't clear.. I was asking for a GUI file browser, sry ranger covers my tui needs

spoilerNo electron

 

I saw this tiktok where this guy was talking about how he'd get his hands on real social security numbers.. this was a clip from a whole story he told about some criminal shit, I was too distracted by my thoughts on how to fix the exploits he used.

Block chains and cryptographic signatures would solve basically every one of his exploits. But regardless of the myriad of reasons as to why we won't adopt cryptography into American laws and bureaucracy, imagine if we did do everything involving government and policy in a cryptographically secure environment.

Imagine if everyone who is born gets assigned a gpg secret key signed by the government and that is your government ID for everything from opening a bank account to paying your taxes to claiming benefits. IMPO I think this is a perfect solution (iif you ignore the human element).

So my question is why wouldn't it be perfect, and what kind of exploits could bad actors use in a cryptographic bureaucracy?
