The republicans have always gotten their way by obstructing everywhere they can and forcing negotiations even when they do not have the majority. The democratic leadership (e.g. hakeem jeffries and chuck schumer) throw their hands up and say “we cant do anything” and promptly do nothing or flip sides.

Doing this sets a standard for democratic politicians and puts pressure on the democrats to do something, anything even if it is just to be a thorn in the republicans side. Any of them who continues to waste the little power they do have will have to face their own constituents who ask “if Booker can do that for 25 hours, where the fuck were you when we needed you to fight back against this”

There are probably just going to be more people dropping trash on the floor instead of a bin

That is the opposite of what the we should have learned from what happened with the Nazis and what Milgram experiment warned us of. Its the reason there’s memes about “just following orders.” If pressured, most people will just listen to what theyre told even if it means knowingly hurting someone.

Passive acceptance is part of the reason Nazis were able to take over while not being the majority in Germany.

Not a backdoor, just undocumented commands on the hci. You would already need access to the device from the microcontroller side to leverage them. Also it’s not uncommon for older devices like this to have undocumented commands

If you do a 5 bit encoding (0-31) that’s enough for the alphabet and numbers can overlap with letters like in braille, plus spaces. Thats around 1638 characters. Standard ascii is technically 7 bits and that would compress to 1170 characters without the initial 0

Unfortunately he has a gaggle of hitler youth in tow doing his bidding for him

Lemmy.world ended up being the default instance for everyone hopping from reddit, so it’s quickly become more akin to reddit than other servers. Not to mention the tankies have migrated to lemmy.ml (developer run and explicitly marxist / tankie instance), lemmygrad.ml (marxist tankie 4chan instance), and hexbear (tankie communists that were isolated / defederated by choice for a while. They started federating and many instances blocked them for trolling. Full of trolls). I went to lemmy.ca but lemmy.world blocked me for being a bot, which I am not, so I had to make a new account because the admins never bothered to respond. Also lemmy.world admins have been going kinda crazy / heavy handed with the moderation and many people on other servers are rightfully upset with them

Ive found it to be inconsistent; used to not work on ddg /bing but worked today for me. Used to work on google but less so nowadays

SEO is a cancer

If you add “-best -awesome” or search on google you can get some real results, but I usually avoid google. You can also try searxng

Means potato / lame

Because theyre a domain registrar, its not the same process for them. They can essentially pay pennies on the dollar to hold them for several months-a year. I’m not sure if they get it back like a deposit, but it costs them almost nothing. You can complain to WIPO but you might have difficulty getting anywhere without suing and showing something trademark infringement (with a registered trademark)

There are things they do that are beyond that, like if you look up a domain on their website to see if its available and it is, theyll essentially register it for cheap and then hold onto it so you can only buy it from them at an upcharged price, and even if you go to another registrar thats cheaper, you cant register it because they already own it

Seems like he does get banned frequently by mods, given he has like 10 accounts created on a number of servers in the past few months

Maybe they saw this dude

I get at least one a day over text just saying “hello”

Have since started reporing as spam and blocking ever single one
