And some people can’t pull their head out of their own ass long enough to see that their problems aren’t the same as everyone else’s problems.

You’re just projecting here.

I merely pointed out that everything is politics and yet you respond with yet more bleating.

and their pet issues

And you respond further by shoving your head further up your own arse.

Your response being a great case study in how you can do exactly that while also implying that no one else even has problems to begin with.

Are you trying to make yourself out as the victim here?

What a fucking crybaby!

When can we stop inserting politics into every little thing?

When I see comments like this, it makes 2 things plainly obvious:

1. The commentor is naive and doesn’t understand that fundamentally ‘politics’ is the power dynamic in every relationship, be that between people, groups or with structures or things such as food.

It is in everything and connects everything. It defines your relationship and how you interact with the world and it’s relationship to, and interaction with you.

2. The commentor has enough privilege that they don’t have to worry about politics/power structures on a daily basis.

Some people can’t see the wood for the trees

CEOs still haven’t learnt to keep their mouths shut because they keep getting shot!

Nope. They’re a pair of cunts that deserve longer and it’s not a zero sum game. We can, and should, have be jailing both

One claimed he was so drunk he doesn’t remember loading up his range rover, driving to the parking spot then carrying the equipment to the tree, cutting it down with precision not expected of someone blind drunk, carried all the kit back to the car, drive home then had a moment of clarity.

The other one said he’s such a weak idiot that the other one led him astray

The sentencing is to (slow - bah it was meant to be…) show that wilful destruction of ancient trees and heritage sites will not go unpunished.

They are a pair of cunts that destroyed a beloved tree and I disagree, if they hadn’t been jailed, they would very likely do something similar again seeing as they revelled in the media attention and took keepsakes.

Considering that the bbc is not a very trustworthy media outlet, I view them reporting this with the same incredulity of all the maga cried going on about Hunter Bidens laptop.

Not to say I don’t think PRNK isn’t an authoritarian regime but all the things they claim about that phone are the kind of malware that Western agencies use all the time.

we’re gonna end up with /r/sinkpissers. Lol

In all seriousness, you really don’t want a mass exodus from Reddit to Lemmy instances. It’s better that it’s slowly so growth is managed but even more important, user quality is maintained!

When the Digg exodus happened, Reddit literally overnight went from a considered discussion board to full of ascii art, 1 line shit witty or pun comments, lyric threads and the signal to noise ratio went to shit.

On top of that there were constant stability issues that were compounded by all the thickos constantly hammering F5.

You could write that as 1 line:

[ -z "$var" ] && echo "empty" || echo "no it aint"

ByteDance is a privately-held global company, roughly 60 percent owned by global institutional investors (such as Blackrock, General Atlantic, and Susquehanna International Group), 20 percent owned by the company’s founders, and 20 percent owned by its employees—including over 7,000 U.S.-based employees.

The cliff thought as much. Why else would it yeet him like that?!

(Doesn’t sound like he was because he also held patents for an insulin pump & a wheelchair that could climb stairs so his mind was definitely working towards solving real world problems & not just reinventing public transport)

Old man shouts at clouds hating on democratisation of music production tools and digital distribution, while sitting in his $x00,000 studio, wanting to consume music that uses laborious methods of manufacture and distribution and seeing it has no value if it doesn’t.

Exactly. If critical mass is achieved inorganically, it would result with a reverse in uptake & possibly even a revolt against it.

You can lead a horse to water… (but a pencil must be lead)

No, it’s all good. We’re on the same page about disaster recovery!

as long as there is at least one other backup that isn’t with this provider.

Which is exactly what I was saying.

Any services used with a cloud provider should be treated as 1 entity, no matter how many geo-locations they claim your data is backed up to because they are a single point from which all those can be deleted.

When I was last involved in a companies backups, we had a fire safe in the basement, we had an off-site location with another fire safe & third copies would go off to another company that provided a backup storage solution so for all backups to be deleted, someone had to go right out of their way to do so. Not just a simple deletion of our account & all backups are wiped.

That company had the foresight to do something similar & it’s saved them. [edited - was on the tube when I wrote this and didnt see the autocorrect had put ‘comment’, not ‘company’]

It may have been more devastating if they relied exclusively on google for backups.

Which is why having any data, despite the number of backups, on a cloud provider shouldn’t be seen as off-site.

Only when it is truly outside their ecosphere and cannot be touched by them should it be viewed as such.

If that company didn’t have such resilience built into their backup plan, they would be toast with a derisory amount of compensation from Google.

Upon looking at it again, I see it just wants me to type in “what is skibidi toilet” into Google,

More of a Simple Simon Says… really

We have the mandatory security training at my company and they said it was going to be revised after a few of us showed how the advice it gave was insecure and incorrect!
