I've heard you can apparently buy a house with 10 silver coins, the original deed, 2 witnesses present and 2 secretaries present is this true?

Yes, this is true. Provided the seller is a dumb dumb who will accept 10 silver coins (~$400 USD) for a house while 4 of their friends watch in awe.

This is me. Always Windows for my gaming computer and when I built a new one recently, I went full Linux. No regrets so far.

Can we take a second and appreciate the person who got these messages and took them to the media? Putting myself in their shoes, I’d be scared shitless and you can easily see how it might make you a target. Good on you random citizen, I appreciate you.

I went to a hospital recently to visit a friend and needed to buy lunch while I was there. I purchased a premade chicken Caesar salad in a package for $7.50.

I walk back to where I’m staying and realize the salad has everything except the dressing. It’s literally lettuce, chicken, croutons, and a bit of cheese.

I say fuck this because it’s hardly even a Caesar salad at this point, and I go back to buy something else. That’s when I realize, they do have dressing, but it’s sold separately and it’s a fucking $1.00.

A big deal? No. Infuriating? YES.

Stop using Google. You can’t change them, you have to leave.

This is what they mean by test driven development.

A Russian citizen living in America who supported Ukraine by donating money to them was warned by her partner that going back wouldn’t be safe. She said “nah, it’ll be fine” and was arrested shortly after in Russia.

This is very sad, but you didn’t know they’d be mad about that?

Think of all the things you could put in those numerous tiny pockets.

We goof on this person, but in my experience this kind of shameless begging usually works to some degree.

For anyone who doesn’t “get it”, I’m not promising this series will make sense or even be funny. Garfield without Garfield is amusing (sometimes), so I wondered about Calvin and Hobbes, but how it might be in reality. Hobbes will only ever appear as a stuffed animal and will not be mentioned by name.

I'm working through “Homicidal Psycho Jungle Cat” and will be including the page number in the title (at least until I get bored of this).

You can find the full book in PDF form here: https://ia801007.us.archive.org/1/items/3.yukonho/9.%20Homicidal%20Psycho%20Jungle%20Cat.pdf

The page numbers I'm using as reference don't quite line up because I'm using a physical book as reference, but it's pretty close.

Hope you...enjoy?

If you’re curious how but don’t want to read, I skimmed and it seems like overzealous privacy/permission warnings are at the heart of their complaints. I’d agree, it’s annoying but I prefer it to the alternative.

Creative cloud wanted to run at login, and in the old days, it would just make that happen. Now it implores YOU to turn on the setting because it cannot. That’s a win in my book.

I find these videos super interesting and cool to watch and this is the best/longest of all the ones I've ever seen. Hope you enjoy it too

They build a 25 meter tall tower out of wooden sticks over the course of four days and then make it all collapse. I thought it was pretty cool.

IMO it’s not a good idea to be discussing attack vectors publicly when a number of other instances are unpatched and the exploit has been in the wild for less than a day.

I agree that admins need to work together, but discussing it in public on Lemmy so soon after the attack isn’t the way. There exists a Matrix channel for admins, that’s where this type of thing should go.

An absolute banger with a great group of talented people.

I always assumed since it was a desiccant it might dry up my insides and kill me, but it seems like that’s not the case.
