Powershell is locked down on our machines via AD policy. I used to run a tool from the Windows Store, but they locked that down too. They didn’t come for the JVM yet.

I have Java on my machine. So I wrote a small program that moves the mouse one pixel every minute. Forever green.

Nobody is pretending that. We’ve seen it, we know the signs and we’re warning you.

That is an insane argument. You are saying anybody whose country went through a genocidal dictator can’t criticize Trump because he’s not as bad yet? WTF?

Percentages can be expressed as multiplication and multiplication is commutative (the order doesn’t matter).

Yeah, this is bullshit. Most of these points are just made up.

I’m not in the US. Grape jelly just isn’t popular here. You get jam/jelly from all kinds of fruit, strawberry, raspberry, cherry, orange, lemon, blueberry, apricot, peach, … I just never, ever saw grape jelly. I am sure that you can get it in well-stocked supermarkets, but as I rarely eat jelly, I never came across it.
- Comment on Rare 4 weeks ago:
I knew about all kinds of jam/jelly. Just never once grapes.
- Comment on Rare 4 weeks ago:
I had no idea that jelly is made from grapes. In my almost 50 years on this earth I have never heard of that. There’s really no point to my comment, except maybe to serve as a reminder to never take knowledge for granted.

And there’s the tankie whataboutism I have been expecting. Everything you said is true, but my point is that China is strategically investing and they don’t care about Africa, only China. African countries very much need to be aware of that.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 4 weeks ago:
Some core developers of Lemmy are hardcore tankies and that attracts others.
Also, for someone from Africa it’s weird to claim they are not involved in this. China is strategically investing in African countries. If your country has any mineral or other strategic resources, China is no doubt already there.

Oh my god, this triggers me. Last meeting of the day, already longer than necessary because people just repeat the same bullshit over and over and then, when everybody is ready to go, some asshole cunt brings up a completely unrelated topic. So much rage.

On the advice of counsel, I decline to answer that question.

Good point, but after a while someone would still want to know where the gold came from. Unless you sell it so slowly that it’d be barely useful to you.
- Comment on Title 5 weeks ago:
Cash in this day and age is a huge pain in the butt. Sure, you can get groceries and some tech. But buying a house or even a car or pay for services? Impossible to very inconvenient. Even just paying for everything in cash will be a problem if you ever get audited. You’d need to launder the money somehow and at that point you can also take the gold.

I know Apple is terrible with usability, but I also think USB-C is now the one that works everywhere. All my last USB stick purchases had USB-A and C, just so that I don’t have to run away in tears. I can even use them with smartphones and those never had USB-A.

You are welcome.
- Comment on Gotta work those monkey stats up 1 month ago:
I think someone pulled those numbers out of a dark orifice. 74 million bananas seems laughably low. A quick research yielded about 9*10^11 (nine hundred billion) bananas being consumed world wide per year. I got that number by dividing the 109 million tons of bananas that were consumed world wide in 2022[1] with the 120g average weight of a banana[2].
I don’t think it’s possible to get reliable numbers for monkeys consumed as bush meat. However, in 2012 there was an estimate of 3000 gorillas being killed as food each year in Cameroon alone[3]. So it’s probably safe to assume that the number for monkeys is much higher.

Looks like both died in 2020, when they were 25. Katelyn and Sarah Lothrop. Katelyn was killed in a hit and run. I couldn’t find a COD for Sarah, only an obituary.
