A leap year is every 4 years, but not every 400 years. If you could only vote on Feb 29 you’d have gone 8 years without a vote between 1996 and 2004.

This is so believable. You copy a few examples out of a textbook using cout and cin and it seems reasonably inline with other languages.

Batman in an interrogation room pins joker to the wall.

Batman: “I’ve only got one rule”

Joker: “Then that’s the rule you’re gonna have to break to get what you want”.

Now I hate Marvell and all super hero movies but I do find that quote applies to a lot of things.

If you’re truthful or law abiding then law breakers have an advantage on you. They’ll try and undermine free and fair elections.

If you’re a pacifist then people will use violence to try and control you, such as terrorism, or simply ignore your laws.

If you have socialism then people will pour in from other countries or try to exploit the system in whatever they can.

If the police or strict or lax in either direction it causes upset.

Whatever you say is a law, or a line you won’t cross, is something that people will exploit.

I used to work in Amesbury very near this site and I can tell you this completely unnecessary.

Sure fix the potholes but 2bn for 2 miles of duel carriage way that ultimately won’t speed up journeys between London and the shitholes on the A303 (eg. Salisbury) just aren’t worth it.

You gotta walk your own path.

Most people know exactly what they have to do to obtain a skill, start a business, make a friend, experience and adventure but simply don’t out of fear of the unknown.

The Internet is helpful but you got to put stock in your own lived experience.

Firstly, who the fuck are they?

Secondly, you have the money, why can’t you just be reasonable? Like it’s not enough to rich, and not work and be happy, travel the world without limits and without a care… you somehow need to hurt people. It’s awful.

I’ve been on Reddit for 16 years and I’d say yes it’s very similar. Like Reddit back then it was very tech focused and quite liberal.

I do think people are a bit more vicious online these days than they used to be and a bit more polarised.

From a content perspective there used to be more blog content than tech news content, but it’s fairly similar. What I like about Lemmy is it’s far less commercial and the conversation is more genuine.

However I don’t think Lemmy will become Reddit in 15 years, I think it may languish in eternal obscurity and I’m actually okay with that.

Reddit exploded when Digg crumbled and the same could happen with Reddit crumbling but idk, there seems to be some stickiness to Internet websites these days.

Normally this sort of organisation is called a “not for profit”. It acts like a company in every respect but doesn’t do more than pay for its own use. Examples are semi-public services such as “Transport for London” etc. in terms of org or dot com, I think you can use either.

I’d love to see it ported to Linux and for Spotify to release a fork of it again.

I can go to Google and log in to free email. I can create word documents and spreadsheet in google docs. I can learn AI with Google projects. I can create unlimited private repos on GitHub, play lots of games on steam for free. I can download Winamp from old versions .com for free. I can get a Linux distro for nothing off servers. I can use a freevpn, watch YouTube for free.

Literally handing over game servers to an authorised community to run or supporting games forever actually is possible in the modern day.

If the EU is better than the UK, while travel from France in the first place?

Further proof they aren’t really asylum seekers but illegal economic migrants.

I don’t think you should proactively “switch to Linux”. Instead you should “play with Linux”, ideally duel boot and a day will come when you can’t remember the last time you used Windows.

Hi,

This bug can easily be fixed by adding a few more dense layers and adding one specific correct input/output to the training set.

Thanks

GPT devs.

You Underestimate people’s unwillingness to cooperate. We’re all born different in ability and attractiveness and this breeds distrust that undermines what people are willing to contribute or take.

Got to connect to the vpn first.

You have to configure the users device at the start to give you your own codes back…

I think it’s because TOTP requires some sort of initial token sync that is more complicated than entering a telephone number. There’s also no need to have people backup codes etc. To use Authy for example I need to photograph a QR code and have a smart phone.

Text message as a solution works on older non-smart phones so it’s possibly the “most widely accessible” solution.

From a backend perspective as well it’s just an API text $random to $phone.

Communism is bad.
