I mean. "she was killed by the IDF" is passive voice, no? I think IDF is out of control as much as the next person but passive voice can be communicative and clear as much as active voice. And clearly it's easy to reach for if you gave it as a counter example accidentally.

200G of packages is 200G I can't use for games and media.

It's a pretty accurate description of the last 8 years TBH.

Voltages drop in the cold, and the middle of the night is usually the coldest. So that's why this is probably not far from reality.

I was a huge fan of his until the Bottas wreck where he lost his temper and smacked Bottas' helmet.

Makes me wonder what the difference between a super used set of tires and a 30% used set of tires would be, though.

Star spangled banner, autocorrect edition:

Oh Daddy can you see by the Dawn's easily long What do probably we jailed add the Twilight last glowing Whoa being strips and bright state They'd the person force Or the ramparts we watched We're so thankful streaming

And the tickets red flare The bonds busting in sure Have proof their the night That it flat was still there

Oh saw guys that day spangled banner yet and Or the leave of the few And the home of the brave

Maybe it's simply because he's not the sitting president and his detail is much smaller? I'm not at all familiar with the way FPOTUS security is run but I do believe I remember they don't get anywhere near the resources POTUS gets. They're also not often running for reelection so this seems like an increased risk, reduced resources situation.

 

For a search company I can't believe how terrible the Android app search is. I can't even search "bank" for my banking apps, and there doesn't really seem to be any metadata except for the title that goes into the search. Which is absolutely ridiculous given how many companies name their apps something cReAtIvE like "home" or "Resideo" or "Smart Hq." I just want to search GE for the damn GE app. Or "thermostat" for Resideo. Surely there's something beyond surface level here because obviously this is an extensively solved problem. How is there not metadata or description searching at minimum? My only guess is fear of abuse but Google has definitely dealt with that for their entire existence and up until recently, managed to handle it fine.

The Sign (lemmy.stuart.fun)
 

For context, in case you don't have kids (therefor you probably don't watch Bluey), the family in the car (the Heelers) was selling their house to move for a job but ultimately, the dad (Bandit) decided staying at their house with family was more important. As a final act of demonstration, he lifts the for-sale sign out of the ground and throws it onto the street, with emotional montage music playing in the background.

Basically the meme being, I reject this and I'll figure out another way.

Thankfully historical Hashicorp code has been permissively licensed and we have awesome forks like opentofu and openbao.

Until now I've avoided almost everything to do with combat so I guess this is my introduction.

My wife made this template and meme and it's too good not to share on the better social media platform.

Sources say the decision was made by how long interns spent in each editor. In fact, it appears the vim users simply never exited once they opened the program, presumably because they found it so productive.

 
 

This smaller food scoop is MURDER.

 
 

I had an issue logging into Twitch last night for the first time in a while. I just didn't get any 2FA messages delivered to me, until about 12 hours later when I was asleep and they were probably long invalidated. and now suddenly I can't log in to my MVD either. Apparently there's some sort of SMS short+long code outage (according to the twilio status page in North America, which is mildly infuriating when this is already shown to be a pretty sketchy 2FA mechanism, at least theoretically.

Just curious if anybody else has noticed issues or if that's just me. And also, I really hate SMS 2FA.

She legitimately said "he seemed well adjusted." After telling me he looked a lot like me 15 years ago.
