Nothing. Destroying it just wastes more of their time comparatively.

And it probably destroys Elmo's precious data as a bonus. Something this ~~haphazard~~ efficiently installed wouldn't have a well-tested backup procedure, let alone a backup policy to begin with.

If you're going to get fired anyway, you might as well throw it off the roof. A bit more effective of a delay than the 30 seconds it would take for someone to plug the power cable back in.

"They broke the law," tweeted the motherfucker who never respected it in the first place...

Hey, what do we call Nazi apologists?

You're asking someone who manages to get downvoted on conservative communities to answer that. I'm not sure what answer you would get other than "the good guys."

Now they can start to hate ~~DEI~~ any queer, disabled, or non-white-male worker in their normal life!!! Yay!!!

FTFY

who the fuck bankrupts a casino?

If you ask one of his diehard cultists, the answer is a genius businessman. Bankruptcy is just sticking it to the elites and bankers by not having to pay loans, not an indicator of total incompetence /s

Making a specific country pay more for exports is the nuclear option. And frankly, it's well deserved at this point. With all the "jokes" about ~~annexing~~ making Canada into the 51st state, there's more than enough justification for it.

One can only hope they also included Twitter.

I doubt it would ever happen, but they could redistribute the money from those tariffs back to citizens. It would be a net positive for people who choose to get goods made locally or imported from friendly nations.

It's possible that Lemmy uses fixed-size buffers for the username and unhashed password. It would be pretty bad to give an unauthenticated user the power to allocate hundreds of megabytes in a shared process.

Not that I read the source code to know for sure, but it's common practice to reduce the opportunity for denial of service attacks by limiting user input size.

It's PETA. You could have a pet rock and they would probably get upset about it.

"Reddit continues to be anti-free speech," Cedric Hohnstadt said on X. "I just got a lifetime ban from the 'comics' subreddit. Yesterday, I posted a humor comic that got over 5,400 upvotes. Then I noticed that there was a pinned post from the moderators saying that comics linked from X could no longer be shared because Musk gave a Nazi salute. I commented saying no he didn't. The moderator accused me of being pro-Nazi, banned me permanently for life, and deleted all my past posts from the, 'comics' subreddit. But somehow Elon Musk is the totalitarian?" The post has been viewed 3.7 million times.

Ok, Cedric. Do it at work in front of your boss and boss' boss. Do it while staring the head of HR in the eye. Own the libs and prove it's not a Nazi salute. Quit bitching on Twitter like the snowflakes you hate and put your money where your mouth is.

Whether Windows or Linux, remember what we all have in common: plenty of infighting over distributions.

Edit: Does nobody understand the post title is a joke?

 

Modlog, which includes a site ban—something only admins can do.

The community bans also include communities that aren't moderated by any instance admins, and some that are only moderated by a single person who likely isn't aware of actions taken under their community's name.

 

>Focuses on optimization which only helps in specific workloads like synthetic benchmarks

The solution is to deprecate the slower one, right?

Right?

It's almost as if the real money is where the customers are at, and not in little Timmy's wallet.

 

Once one company gets away with it, the rest follow.

 

The Citra website has been replaced with the same statement made on the Yuzu website, and the GitHub repository is now gone as well.


Other build dependency repos taken down with it:

This also includes ceasing development and destroying their copies of the code.

The GitHub repo page for Yuzu now returns a 404, as well. The website is still up, though.

There is also an active Reddit thread about this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/1b6gtb5/

 

An ad that showed up as I was browsing through the news. Bloody ridiculous...

 

You may know it as Space Melody by Luna Park or as ResuRection by ППК (English: PPK), but the original melody was composed by Eduard Artemyev for the 1979 Soviet film Siberiade. The original name of the song, as titled in the movie's soundtrack release, is la mort du héroes (the death of heroes, if my French is correct).

Here's a link to the original composition, if you're curious.
