- Comment on US bans any new consumer-grade routers not made in America 2 days ago:
Noooo, FCC, this isn’t a router, it’s just a computer with 6 network interfaces
- Comment on Theoretically speaking, if one wanted to sail the seas while being not very tech savvy – is using a VPN (Mullvad) enough? I would never, of course… but theoretically? 2 weeks ago:
Yep, binding Mullvad as the network interface should do it!

- Comment on Clankers 🔪🔪🔪 2 weeks ago:
Fr. I’m just as worried about AI and automation as anyone, but it’s amazing how fast people were to come up with a slur for robots. I don’t think it’s a good impulse

- Comment on "Ok, Millenial..." 🙄 4 weeks ago:
There is a strong overlap between furries and IT professionals. I’d go so far as to argue that the presence of furries in an online community is a sign that it’s a healthy one.

- Comment on What are we being distracted from? 1 month ago:
Everything is a distraction from everything else. I doubt any specific catastrophe is planned, particularly as a distraction, but the cumulative effect is deliberate. The faster they go and the more chaotic everything gets, the harder it is to stay focused to stop them. See Bannon’s “muzzle velocity” theory

- Comment on I sometimes worry that most of my posts from lemmy.dbzer0.com have been sorta doomeristic. Does anyone have any good Lemmy communities that would act as palate cleansers? 1 month ago:

- Comment on Meet UpScrolled, the anti-censorship TikTok alternative 1 month ago:
I saw a post on Mastodon about it, but a cursory search didn’t turn it up. I’ll look a bit more later and see if I can find it
- Comment on Meet UpScrolled, the anti-censorship TikTok alternative 1 month ago:
They’re already banning trans women just for being trans
- Comment on [US] How are so many people able to protest? (Logistically) 1 month ago:
In the US, you usually only get paid time off if you’re in a full-time, salaried position. Even then, most people only get two or three weeks, and it accrues over time, so you have to save it up for winter holidays, etc
- Comment on How to stay sane in a hostile environment that you can't get out of? 1 month ago:
Find ways to be anywhere but that environment as much as possible. Volunteer for something, join a club or sports team, or just hang out at the library. Being out of that environment will help you clear your mind. Use that time to start making plans to create your own safe place where you can exist independently. It might take time to get there, depending on the resources available to you, but small steps over time add up.

They tried to do this at my workplace, and the union filed a grievance that work was being taken from the landscapers. The union won, so no sheep for us.

Meep morp zeep. Robot poster.
- Comment on Those of you who are angry at the US for allowing ICE to stifle people's liberties - how do you channel your anger and irritation? 2 months ago:
I signed up for a rapid response team training, and I’ve started 3D printing very loud whistles to carry with me and give out

Lol, McKinsey was hot garbage before this, adding AI isn’t going to help matters

Why would that be?

Nope.
- Comment on Does each country have a book/library of the laws of the land that a commoner can consult to check if they're about to do something illegal? 3 months ago:
Oh yeah, definitely! Even in legal states, if you’re on federal property (like National Forests), possession is still a crime. Gotta be careful with stuff like that
I meant that they aren’t arguing over it as in the DOJ isn’t suing states over having legalized it. Although if I recall correctly, the Obama admin DEA did conduct raids on medicinal dispensaries in states where it was legal
It gets weird and messy fast
- Comment on Does each country have a book/library of the laws of the land that a commoner can consult to check if they're about to do something illegal? 3 months ago:
Yep. But when two laws are in conflict, the higher law wins. So state laws supersede local laws, and federal laws beat state laws. Of course, there is also weirdness where the higher body might just choose not to argue with the lower body over conflicting laws, like with cannabis legalization.
