Only suspect?

And they’re getting away with it because they understand how the legal system works.
- Comment on Yale Posting It's Ls 1 week ago:
Seems like those schools were successful in teaching them how our legal system works and how to use it to advance their own goals. Seems like the only thing they didn’t learn is ethics, but their understanding of our legal system is pretty solid.

People think private pilots are rich because airplanes are expensive. They’re not - they might be upper-middle class (with a mortgage and other debt) but most have to budget their aviation spending. Truly wealthy people don’t fly their own planes, they hire pilots and crew, and probably have no idea what a Jesus nut looks like.
That said, this is obviously satire/bait.

If they have video of you leaving the note, then they also have video of the truck being parked, sitting there without being hit, and the owner returning without any real incident.
And from experience, the cops would tell the owner of the truck to contact their insurance, and if pushed, the most they’d do is file a report. There wouldn’t be any investigation, especially without evidence of damage.
- Comment on OP has a realization 4 weeks ago:
every scientist on planet earth is wrong about basic physics
Until someone comes up with a unified theory that works for both Newtonian mechanics and quantum mechanics I’d say this is true - we’re all wrong about basic physics.

Have a nice day.

You seem like you have a lot of pent up anger and frustration. I hope you find peace someday.

I’m saying the Lemmy post (“FACTS”) is satire, not the Twitter post.
- Comment on FACTS 1 month ago:
Your post is satire
Seems like everyone here understands that this post is satire, including the OP. They wouldn’t have posted it to the shitpost community if they thought otherwise.
you stupid fuck.
When you point one finger, three are pointing back at you.

If he chops it off he’ll have to sit down anyway, so yeah…
- Comment on Is there any way the average American can insulate themselves from the AI bubble bursting? 2 months ago:
While true, those companies all have solid revenue streams that aren’t directly related to AI. If a bubble pops they’ll all suffer, but all of them were profitable before the AI boom and can survive without it. It’s very different from the dot bubble because that was driven by speculation and many companies weren’t making any profit back then.

I’m not able to watch a video right now… But is the answer “the bernoulli principle?”
- Comment on be gay, do crimes (in space) 3 months ago:
Even without monitoring, it probably has a unique IP/subnet that shows the traffic came from the ISS. And the financial institution is definitely recording IPs.
- Comment on Americans have the gun industry so far up their ass that they don't even notice their asshole is gaping. There is no other country where uneducated morons are allowed access to guns easily. 4 months ago:
This argument is usually followed by the racist dog whistle “it’s unfortunately our demographic”
I’ve also seen it followed up by criticism about American healthcare, specifically mental health.

We shouldn’t refuse to take action just because we don’t have a perfect understanding of the problem.

No, it’s a little more nuanced than that.
- Comment on this is exactly what copper would say 5 months ago:
No, check ebay if you don’t believe me. It’s not exactly plentiful, but there are enough contractors with several hundred/thousand feet left over from big jobs who are selling it for wholesale or less. It’s not like you can recycle it, and splicing is unreliable without tools that cost as much as a car, so if you’ve got a partial spool you need to get rid of you’ll probably have to sell it at a loss.
- Comment on MD = oMega Dumbass 5 months ago:
Elevation (really the force of gravity) has an effect on time, so that’s technically only true at sea level.

- Comment on Handling malicious requests with fail2ban 5 months ago:
Port knocking is cool, but tunneling everything through ssh or a VPN (with strong keys, not passwords) is more secure.
- Comment on Mastercard release a statement about game stores, payment processors and adult content 5 months ago:
They’re obviously basing it on the local laws of the business and customer. That varies from each transaction to the next. They’re just saying that they don’t restrict anything that they aren’t legally required to restrict.
- Comment on Handling malicious requests with fail2ban 5 months ago:
The thing about fail2ban is that it’s only affective against automated scans and script kiddies, and if you keep things updated and configured correctly then they aren’t a threat. Any adversary that can break encryption or exploit a zero day can also get around fail2ban.
- Comment on US education 5 months ago:
Good electricians might understand the theory behind it, but average ones just need to meet code without wasting too much time or materials. And to do that they follow patterns that work, patterns they learn from good electricians (or engineers).
Also, as an outsider, it seems like modern electrical code is designed so electricians don’t need to use common sense. For better or worse…
- Comment on US education 5 months ago:
Electricians just need to know how to follow the code, they don’t need to understand the underlying physics. Engineers, on the other hand…

Yep, Americans have less freedom than North Koreans because we can’t tether our phones data service to our laptops. /s
I fully support net neutrality, but there are bigger problems than not being able to tether your phone’s data plan to your laptop.

I’m pretty sure everyone who says it’s gay to wipe your own ass is trolling.

By that logic, fake fundraisers and romance scams shouldn’t be illegal either.
