The international response to Reflect Orbital should be:

"This is a space weapon in violation of international treaties, and if it's lanched, we will deal with it kinetically."

I would try to pull rank here, but I only have two hammers. I love em both.

I have used it for 25 years. I never loved it. I don’t love operating systems anymore than I love hammers. I have 5 hammers.

It reminds me a little of the old internet. I like how relatively small it feels, and that people post content for the sake of the content, not to promote themselves. I haven’t found my usual corners yet, the ones I used to hang out in on older platforms, but I figure that’s just a matter of time. I’m not super nostalgic for the old internet or anything, but it’s nice to find at least a hint of something human-centered somewhere.

I hope it doesn’t fall apart and that it keeps growing.

I was skeptical when I switched to Linux, but then I ditched Windows on my dual boot for good. It was a hugely positive experience, and it really felt like freedom. I’m hoping this will be the same.

And don’t be mad at me if I act totally clueless here sometimes 'cause all that is new to me.

@alexwild It looks like an animal from the Dark Crystal (it's a compliment).

They definitely have a prehistoric vibe

Who would've thought AI companies are now restricting reverse engineering with their frontier models?! For purposes like this open weight models make a very strong case. In general it's really dangerous that we're dependent on Big-AI's policies to decide what were allowed to use them for 🧐

Jordan as minority leader. Miller as chief of staff. They've declared war. I don't want to see any hands-across aisles bullshit from our leaders. No coddling Fetterman, either. War.
House Republicans elect Jim Jordan to serve as minority leader next year

I don’t know Cyrillic but assuming google translate got this translated right: I was honestly more shocked that they popped me so quick, if anything.

Usually, they at least try and put up a facade of freedom of speech. To get the psychological walls down and all that, you know?

I’m new here, fleeing reddit and it’s war on anonymity. Happy to be here!

I created my account on Lemmy.world, and yesterday learned how to subscribe to communities on other servers.

I was adding a few from Lemmy.ml, but hit a snag with a couple, using the ‘Privacy’ community as my example: when I hit ‘subscribe’ and enter ‘Lemmy.world’ as the instance to follow from, I just get a white page with ‘Server error’.

I left it 24hrs and tried again, and its still the same.

Any hints?

@PhoenixSerenity I love bitter melon! Am sure it'll come out lovely. Enjoy!

@Vivaldi @jon

Good luck!

@Gargron I wear sunglasses while driving at night. Not to be 80s. But to dull the brightness of some of the newer headlights. I can't look away as the driver. But can't see the road thru the headlights intensity. Which I believe the newer ones are LEDs.

Breaking News: Van Hollen Calls Out Schumer for Siding With AIPAC and Crypto

Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen is plotting out his position against Democratic leader Chuck Schumer.

“I am listening to all the people from around the country that were calling for big change... I am in the process right now of calling my colleagues.”

Van Hollen then drew a line in the sand, arguing that Schumer and the DSCC had “sided with the crypto industry” and AIPAC.

"This is trickle-down economics, and it doesn’t work. Corporate welfare sends profits gushing up to the wealthy without necessarily yielding spillovers in jobs or economic growth."

@aaron DKIM is the bigger problem, as it signs sections of the header, and the sender policy usually prohibits tampering with them.

Don't know how current software handles this, my last solution was to rewrite the sender to the mailing list address and strip all DKIM-related headers.

There's also ARC now, but I have no idea how that works in practice.
