I ran into this recently. Trying to get access to a credit union’s system as a vendor, they had a captcha that was the old style image of distorted text, with a text box labeled “are you a robot?”. Having the tendency to take things literally, I initially typed “no” into the box. That was not the right answer.
Didn’t trey parker & matt stone already do that?
I guess that was Jesus vs Santa Claus…
I had a crazy Catholic prepper neighbor way back in '99 (she was the hipster of preppers, one of the things she railed about was all the people prepping just for y2k when she had already been doing it for years, but that’s another story) and one of her things was how evil bill gates was- so I told her Linux was evil-er because of the daemons. Gave her a lot to think about.
Nobody else can see the files on your c:\ drive. Designing a “website” means little if you don’t have a place to host it
Go home, robot, you’re drunk
Nobody specified whose benefit…
I suggest Manjaro. Arch made easy.
I had one of the old fashioned distorted text ones the other day, but instead of something like “please enter the text above” it just said “are you human?” next to the text box. Naturally, I typed “yes” but that turned out to be the wrong answer.
Lockdown is different from a drill. It’s as of I said we never had fire drills, but the school burned down a couple times.
Thisthisthis. I have kids, I’m not at all worried about them getting shot, sure it’s “possible” but it’s just so improbable that it’s not something I even think about. But holy shit, the way people drive in my neighborhood, I’ll be a nervous wreck when my kids start walking or biking to the park by themselves…
I was in high school in the early 90s, we never had active ahooter drills, we just had the occasional lockdown due to gang wars…
Eh, it’s safer now than it was 30 years ago, your odds of actually running into anyone with a gun are extremely low.
when did Israel specifucally taregt civilians?
They do it often. Here’s a particularly nasty one from 2009, there are plenty more if you care to look.

Hydrogen is not an energy source, it is a means of energy storage, and a pretty bad one at that.
Landlords and groceries can just raise prices to bring the cost of living up
They already can, and do. If they do it too much, people leave that area. With a UBI, there’s nothing that says you have to live in a big city, it would be easier to move to bfe, where it’s always going to be cheaper. It’s not ideal of course to uproot and leave, but it’s possible, and it’s that possibility that keeps prices somewhat under control.
We all are, hiding it doesn’t help.
