  • Too late Megatron, we’ve already stripped all the resources on Earth. Looks like you’ll have to checks notes fly into space for which you are more than capable of and comfortable with, and obtain all the resources you need there which were always there unprotected in quantities more abundant than humanity’s wildest dreams.

    Megatron you suck as a leader. You should run for US President.

    Psychiatrists: Xenu bless! They're on to us!

  • I could kill myself for being so stupid, my pro-Brexit vote contributed to the mayhem the UK is now in. It never occurred me to that my holidays in Italy could be affected

    Well too late for the killing yourself, you can chalk that up to your shortsightedness as well.

    Thomas (not his real name)

    Well he's learned nothing about actual shame if he's still hiding behind a fake name. Having read the story it doesn't sound like he's sorry one bit about his vote. It sounds like he's sorry that he's having to involve lawyers into getting the fuck out of the UK. Not once was there a, "Oh gee, I've fucked over generations to come because I'm a complete ass." Everything was like "fuck I wish I could leave this fucking shithole and everyone in it that I've created."

    All the blah-blah from many pro-Brexit politicians and commentators made me

    No dipshit, you pushed the button. Nobody held a knife to your throat. You fucked up, learn to own it asshole.

    I could kill myself for being so stupid

    At this point, nothing stopping you from letting your dream come true. Fuck this pansy ass fucktard that can't be an adult. I hope he spends the rest of his days in the UK living in the shit he's made.

  • Extensions that target older GNOME versions will not work in GNOME 45

    So basically it's just another GNOME release gotcha.

    Seriously though, a stable API is not the GTK/GNOME developers' agenda here. Nobody wanting a stable API should write software with this toolkit. That said, if you're a true front end aficionado and you're looking to make your software look awesome every six months, GNOME has got you so covered like the chocolate on a peanut M&M.

    For those wanting to write software that won't magically kerslode without yet another recompile (or heavily relying on your distro to do that dirty work) stick with KDE/Qt group. They tend to be less breaky each release.

  • For those not reading the story, which appears to be many, the company that services the implant went bankrupt. The implant was experimental. There exists no one to service it any longer. It will pose a health risk down the road without someone servicing it.

    The only thing that forced her to have the implant removed is the fact that it would eventually lead to her untimely death if it remained in with no one to take care of the device.

  • I didn’t know Joeffice had a fork. What’s it called?

  • every time someone says something stupid

    Here's a philosophical topic called emergence. Every "one" thing said by an idiot is one thing, but when pretty much every other comment becomes some asshole saying ignorant things it suddenly is something entirely different.

    I saw the very early Internet (mid-80s) and what happened when you gave people benefit of the doubt. There's been no demonstration that anyone has changed. So fuck those stupid assholes, the Internet is vast they can go carve out their own thing. That's the nice thing, they have every tool to make their own LOLverse. But they don't because they don't want to suck each other's dick, they want to be an ass to everyone else. Just as it was the case with talk.*

    Same as it was, same as it ever will be. I for one am glad this time around people are being proactive. It shows that some have actually learned something.

  • I was there OP, I was there 3000 years ago before the great renaming, long before the eternal September. Fuck those bitches, defederate and be done with them. Assholes are eternally assholes and giving them an inch is just inviting them to take a mile.

  • Thought they had accounted for everything by having no windows at the space building.

  • See that's just small thinking. DEA gets tons of money to bust folks so that they can be arrested and made to work for free. That's why there's so much pumping drugs into communities either via the CIA or the more recent vogue method of making heroin a prescription drug that some family can profit off of.

    The entire point of NOT helping drug abusers is so that we can maintain a steady stream of slave labor. Because we still haven't figured out how to do this whole society thing without a bunch of people in forced labor, or as some lawmakers like to say to make sound nicer, penal labor.

    That's the entire point of the Prison-Industries Act of 1979. It's explicitly to create a legal slave labor under the 13th amendment so that states can have various industries be mostly worked by slave labor. When you make something that is a chemical addiction illegal, you create assurances for prisoners that will be in your slave labor. When you deny help for that chemical addiction and put the onus onto the users ("Well I guess you shouldn't have gotten addicted to a drug your doctor prescribed to you!") you've basically created a system that absolutely assures people will be finding their way back under your whip.

    I cannot stress this enough, the United States is NOT interested in actually stopping drug abuse because we've woven that deeply into our very way of life. There are too many core things of modern society that rely on slave labor in this country. Anyone trying to "fix it" would unravel all of that. I mean SHIT, some rich white guy MIGHT not be able to buy their second yacht! Is this the society we want?

    But seriously for a second, the US has a very messed up take on how to handle those who need help for drug addiction. And it is in ways that if we all had a better perspective on it, we'd be ashamed that we're still living like we're in the 1700s. The whole Sackler family, they didn't get away with it for so long just because the Government was sleeping at the wheel. They got away with it for so long because it was beneficial for a lot of people, one of them the prison industry. This country will look the other way on some serious shady shit as long as it drives a profit. The Housing market crash, opioid epidemic, climate change, and so on. Anyone want to count on one hand how many people have faced prison for those things? Our country is way more fucked up than just some law enforcement budget, but yeah, 100% and more what you said.

  • Planet with global warming: “I didn’t hear no bell!”

  • Protecting minors must come with it protections for fundamental rights. This is what these legislators consistently forget.

    It’s not enough in law to just say “you cannot do something vulgar in front of kids.” Law requires more explicit language. I get a “particular group” tends to dislike 100 page bills, but that is what is required.

    Broad language allows interpretation in ways that actually violate free speech. And when one attempts to promote protection at the expense of freedom courts see that as a pretextual basis for just robbing people of their rights.

    The conservative groups that so want to “protect children” if they actually sought that as a goal, then their proposals for that protection would actually contain language that took effort to write. Instead they weakly pitch these two or three page laws that are easily dismissed as gross violations of basic rights.

    And ultimately that’s how you can see that those who are truly conservative and those who represent them are vastly different. The ones getting elected don’t even try to make comprehensive law, they put out a paltry effort, collect their check, and complain about judges. These representatives are pathetic at doing the job they indicate they so passionately advocate.

    That said, plenty wrong with conservatism in general but that’s been covered to death by others before me. But if I was a conservative I would be pissed at SB12’s weak language and that this outcome from the courts was a forgone conclusion for such a shoddy piece of legislation.

  • Same for Rust programmers.

  • both weighed in on Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) latest freezing incident on Wednesday and suggested what the underlying health issue could be.

    In my non-medical opinion, I would say that it looks like he suffers from "Should of fucking retired ten years ago"itis.

    This country has got to do better than keep electing these old ass dementia fuckers.

  • This entire Fukushima waste water thing is just the modern plastic straw. Dumping it isn’t great, but fuck, there’s like three billion other things we should be really worried about more when it comes to the environment.

    The media’s priorities on particular issues is fucked sometimes.
