Unsure if I'm allowed to participate here, so delete please if inappropriate.

I have always been of the impression that banning single accounts reactively to what they post is more work but also more impactful in terms of teaching people to view a problematic world view with the required precision in choosing to express their views.

On the one hand a blanket ban decreases engagement and encourages radicalization through isolation.

On the other hand would engaging with them allow people to see what precisely is a balanced take with precision to what you want to say.

You showed evidence from the modlog that exists only because people were able to engage, stopping that would reduce workload for mods but reduce engagement in political discussion.

Lastly, in this lost you went and made a more precisee statement about who needs fighting in Israel, which was encouraged by the modlog morsels. So again I ask: is that not useful? It teaches to avoid overgeneralization, which a lot of people need very much to learn.

Our German politicians for example. they, like most of our populace, react reflexively negative to anything anti Semitic. Because of our shared cultural shame around the genocide. On the other hand we see ideally politicians acting line we did back then and feel as uneasy as you do. So we do what Germans to, we find a more precise way to express what we see. Overgeneralization of redderic against Jews is bad, specification of anti Israeli genocide sentiment good.

I think it would be in the interest of your cause not to blanket ban and instead add another well balanced volunteer mod to your ranks. :)

Have you tried doing he same thing but with some very tactfully avoided eye contract? Works very well to look for a little signal that might not happen if she doesn't notice you. If she ignores it a little longer than just at first, she is not interested. If you give it a few rounds of carefully looking and playing shy when she notices, she might start joining in the dance so to speak. That's your signal that there might be some interest possible. I like to go up in a situation that does not pressure her or put her too much on the spot and just hand her mym number to contact me if she would like to chat.

Sometimes they write, sometimes they don't. :) but it's the much less boundary pushing way to measure interest before engaging and without making anybody uncomfortable. And yes, women are friends, not food.

Everybody loves getting 0-, sadly people that can give 0- can only receive 0- as well. I'm a universal donor and try to give blood regularly.

Großraum Münster? Ich muss den letzten Zug um 9 kriegen oder 1h warten und 14km laufen. Gott sei dank für E-Roller im Zug als Handgepäck. Ist bei Eis im dunkeln auf der Landstraße ohne Fahrradweg ganz besonders Klasse.

Perfect timing. They mailed me yesterday about them deleting my account soon for inactivity.

Backdooring initrd is standard stuff. This allows Luks key extraction and upload via staging through the root fs.

Hardware bugs are put on the storage. Allows injecting data into ram or backdooring the OS.

Half a dollar for the hardware and they already have the manpower there. Certainly not bugging any random device, but there is always the chance and its certainly not unheard of. I'm a security researcher, that might be a red flag. But somebody posting on Lemmy might also be considered an activist and certainly somebody trying to enter the country with a heap of encrypted devices.

I walk a lonely road, the only road that i have ever known.

Don't zero, install windows. Use company laptop or loaner, might catch hardware backdoor on the border. Don't use for critical stuff or to access critical stuff. Discard or return afteru the fact.

We just had a thread about biopunk centered media, I would love a similar collection about movies and TV shows about solar punk. Here we go:

I really loved the show the peripheral. I know it's not really centered around solar punk per se, but it happens to be placed in a world where the main character goes from place to place in a solar charged e-bike.

What's your favorite show or movie set in a solar punk world?

Just started reading and I am already planning to switch over to extreme test driven development. We don't test nearly enough.

Whats your preferred development strategy? And comparably good sources you would recomment?

 

We use this primarily for input generation for dialog tests.

Its a quickcheck implementation and found us quite alot of "weird" bugs. Like a not-exactly matching encoding of database and application.

Now we gained clean utf smileys in text fields m)

Highly recommend it.

 

This post is a little older, but I was surprised how many packages are timeless allstars. I use all of them except for

  • cors headers
  • extensions
  • storages
  • pytest
  • environ

Which do you use? And for what reasons? For example I need to look into pytest and determinw whats better about that than the natively used test framework.

First post in the new community,

Cheers!
