FYI: you can just look it up.

It was a picture of the CEO of Funko captioned with a death threat.

Yeah, it always seems that every time someone questions the wisdom or validity of this analogy seems not to understand it.

It's either the misunderstanding that the constraints of the hypothetical are finite (a million vs. infinity).

Or the insistence that any sufficiently infinitesimal chance is "practically zero", when literally any likelihood multiplied by infinity is going to guarantee an occurrence.

You can actually expand the infinite monkey theory to say that an infinite number of monkeys using typewriters for an infinite amount of time would write every single book ever written in any language the keyboard is capable of typing, as well as every possible book that could ever even theoretically exist, an infinite number of times, and still be correct.

Any infinite set of random (or even semi-random) characters will contain every possible set of characters that could ever exist, of any length. The works of Shakespeare are also encoded into Pi, we just haven't calculated enough digits to discover one yet (and very likely never will).

If only there was an article attached to this headline, that included more information...

But the company contracted to fit the tag to Delap was unable to attach one to her ankle because of a health condition, and there are no devices available small enough to fit wrists her size.

The bag has a standard nutrition facts label. It's people food. You're just a coward.

The billionaires who own the meat industry thank you for your loyalty. Best not to get the idea in your head that protein can be harvested at home for cheap.

I've got news for you. Elon Musk agrees with you 200% and wants to fire the entire government so that he can replace it with his companies and become a trillionaire.

I can get a 2.5TB backup tape for about $10.

That's $0.004/GB

I mean, "game cheats" might be an understatement. Bungie runs an online service, and Ring-1 is creating and selling millions of dollars worth of exploits that allow users to cheat at a game that includes financial transactions and competitive play, by exploiting the servers that run the game.

Successfully attacking their online service, while indicative of Bungie running an insecure service, would be considered a form of cybercrime, as compared to simply exploiting the game code on your machine. You can't legally make and sell hacking tools that exploit online services.

And cheating at competitive play with real-world stakes is fraud.

 

I am seeing a huge increase in posts and comments that incite violence, make threats of violence against specific people, or that celebrate real-world instances of violence and murder. There are hundreds of comments on this instance posted over the past day that brazenly violate rule #1 "We do not tolerate threats of and calls for violence in any form against any living creature".

Many offending comments have been dealt with by mods, but some mods are seemingly allowing this violent rhetoric in their respective sub-communities. There are many active threads about the UHC CEO right now on lemmy.world that are filled with violent rule-breaking comments, and very little visible moderation.

Given that the mods are either unable or unwilling to enforce this most fundamental content rule, when can we expect the admins to get involved and start handing out bans to the users that have been celebrating murder and inciting more violence? It's pretty out of control right now, and I'm betting that the admins could find themselves in hot water with the authorities if this continues to go unchecked.
