(I am not a lawyer)

To me this is what allowed them to not comb through the millions of documents. Since you have a piece of evidence they gave you admitting to destroying additional evidence, they basically can get not goodwill at all in front of a judge, so it doesn't matter if they say "your honor everything was turned over during discovery and we're all clear", the instant your lawyers contact their lawyers, it's settling time.

By the way veritasium isn't really good. I have some issues with the ways he oversimplifies but at some point you gotta and I respect that, but much worse is his inability to actually cover truth, instead choosing to only parrot what the company "graciously" hosting him told him.

That's cool, I'm glad you are making something you enjoy. The point stands that the average Joe doesn't actually seek out poetry, be it man or machine-made, and will therefore be an exceptionally poor judge of a poems quality.

I'll raise you one better: who the fuck wants poetry?

Like I know I sound like a fucking mongrel who can't appreciate art or whatever, but how many poems do you think the average person reads in their entire life? Maybe 2, for school? Poetry is just not that popular of an art form, so of course people aren't going to be good at distinguishing good from bad. Compare it to visual arts, where people have seen multiple examples, at least more than 3 times a year for their entire life, of good visual art.

It's actually pretty scary how quickly culture can devolve when the guy who signs your paycheck decides what the culture is. Most people working at valve could afford to retire if the culture got bad enough.

For a worked out example, see early Google versus modern Google.

Imo we're extremely lucky gabe isn't bobby kotick. It seems his son is not an absolute fuck, so that's good, but we'll have to see.

Also consider that Roquefort-sur-Soulzon, of cheese fame, has 528 inhabitants.

That's nice, be sure to tell us how it goes when HSTS is enabled

All of the world's servers run Linux. If it was as bad as windows in the early 2000s, it would be known by now. That being said, modern windows is pretty safe too.

This almost reads like an onion article

Ah well I'm sure they will learn their lesson now

I think that was pretty clear and correct. Slavery is still very much legal in the USA.

Edit: actually the triple negative makes it say the opposite of that lol, carry on.

If you own track mania nations forever on steam, you will be unable to run it on a modern OS. You can install mods to make it work but the game is still for sale and if you're unaware the mod exists, you'll never be able to play it again

 
 

hey all, i'm looking to replace my isp's router (i know that i can, it's basically just DHCP on a specific VLAN) with my own one and i'm looking for recommendations.

here's what i would need out of it:

  • best price-to-performance ratio. the larger the NAT table it can keep in RAM the better (i run some things akin to ipv4 scanning)
  • OpenWRT support
  • at least one sfp port for internet access, supporting 5Gb/s.
  • at least one 1 Gb/s ethernet port
  • ideally 2-3 100Mb/s ethernet ports
  • wifi support: yes (don't need anything fancy, even 5GHz is optionnal but preffered)
  • LTE modem: dont care but nice to have

i had a look around the OpenWRT supported devices table but since it doesn't really list ports and i need sfp, it takes a long time to go through and read german router pages.

can anyone recommend a router that meets these at least partially?

 

If you're a Lemmy dev and reading this, the problem is in pict-rs. I have sent an email to asonix with the needed changes, please tell them to check their inbox (since I can't register on their git server, I can't submit a formal PR).

Send me a PM if the email gets lost and I'll give you the line you need.

If you're not a Lemmy dev: Have you encountered an image that is suspiciously rotated here on Lemmy? Perhaps you even tried posting an image that looks right yourself and found it rotated itself! Why?!

The reason is that Lemmy strips all metadata from images you upload to it. This is because image metadata can contain, among other things, GPS coordinates or where it was taken. The problem is that when you take a picture with your phone in landscape, instead of rotating the image in memory, your phone saves the image sideways (because that's how it came off the sensor) and then adds a metadata tag that tells everyone to rotate the image as they are displaying it. You guessed it, that tag also gets deleted. In most cases, this is fine because either the picture wasn't rotated to begin with, or Lemmy image hosts actually save the properly rotated image before stripping the tag, but in some image formats, this isn't the case due to a programming oversight. I have found the fix and sent it to the person responsible for the image hosting code.
