You guys are still using Chrome?

If being asked to confirm that you have not committed war crimes makes you uncomfortable, then you might be a war criminal.

I'm pretty sure Japan's immigration asks if you've ever been convicted of a crime, so how is this any different?

American Voters soon to get bad news that Trump does not give a fuck about them.

I am not down with this name. Can we just keep calling them scumbags?

  1. Not intellectuals. Fucking obvious.
  2. Not on the dark web. They're on YouTube, Twitter, and Spotify.

It seems irrelevant whether this person is using encrypted channels if they failed to maintain anonymity. If they distributed material and leaked any identifying info (e.g. IP address), then it would be trivial for investigators or CIs to track them down.

Selling life-saving drugs at large multiples of the cost to manufacture + distribute. The most obvious example being insulin.

Switching political party in the same term that you were elected to office.

CEOs making 100x the median worker at the same company.

Assault rifles and other automatic or military-grade weapons. They have no practical purpose in the hands of a citizen. Pistols, shotguns, and hunting rifles should be sufficient for hunting and self defense.

Generic finance bro bullshit. Frivolous use of bank credit for speculative investment. Predatory lending. Credit default swaps. It's just a spectrum of Ponzi Schemes. Let's reinstate the Glass-Steagall Act.

Non-disclosure of expensive gifts to Supreme Court judges. Looking at you, Clarence.

Military recruiting at high schools.

Junk mail. You literally have to pay a company to stop sending it.

Especially because devs actually have to go out of their way to exclude Linux these days. Proton makes it so damn easy to support Linux. If you don't, it's because you did not even try or you intentionally added some bloat to your software to make it incompatible.

If we're saying 7% is the bar for mainstream, then Rust is my vote.

C# is not even mainstream by that standard.

I'd also like to see Julia used more.

It's making fun of dynamic languages because rather than letting the compiler prove theorems about statically typed code, they... don't.

Yup. It even extends to superuser.com.

I recently posted about an obvious bug in the Windows 10 DHCP client, showing with Wireshark captures that it is not resilient to hardware clock changes, i.e., you easily lose your IP address for hours.

Most of the responses either said, "you should not be dual booting Linux" or "there is no DHCP client that handles this case. You cannot expect Windows to handle it."

So I replied with a link to a similar bug report for RHEL, which has been fixed.

It's been a month since I posted this bug to the Windows Feedback Hub and there is no response. I doubt it will ever be fixed.

I just commented on this post and it got removed very quickly. Then I noticed that all of the comments had been removed and the post is locked.

I cannot understand why this happened, as the comments section had seemed pretty reasonable to me.

This seems like bad moderation and I'm now less inclined to post or comment in the world news community. What should I do?

I tried messaging a mod that is seemingly online and actively posting, but I got no response.

After moving from lemmy.ml to programming.dev, I've noticed that web responses are fulfilled much more quickly, even for content on federated instances like lemmy.ml and lemmy.world.

It seems like this shouldn't make such a big difference. If a large instance is overloaded, it's overloaded, whether the traffic is coming from clients with accounts on that instance or from other federated instances.

Can this be explained entirely by response caching?
