Is this like an idiotic Luigi copycat? He hates big pharma, so he goes and kills a pharmacist? Like at least have the chutzpah to go for a big fish.

I just occasionally go back to shill for Lemmy. Pretty sure that hurts them more than helps. :D

Is there a transcript?

It’s a really really odd story. The article says that the accident was a minor crash, and that her vehicle sustained A$2000 worth of damage.

There’s no way getting hit buy a bus going 110Kph doesn’t total your vehicle. And if it was just a glancing blow, how do you go into renal failure from what’s basically a fender bender? Severe whiplash maybe?

Perhaps it’s just my armchair traffic injury analysis that’s way off base, but it just seems to me like there’s more to this story.

Let me think of a good name for it. Let’s see, it hangs and holds a banana. How about we call it the “banana hammock”?

Yeah, searx and no looking back here too. The only downside is it’s OotB experience isn’t the best, so you should spend a minute configuring it to add more engines than just google. Oh, that and the occasional outages, but they seem to be less common lately.

Maybe you and your sister should RTFM together.

Teaching my friend’s kids about Linux and python, and watching a movie with them afterwards. Probably have a brewski or two.

It’s actually kinda nice that he’s not going full nose-dive straight into the ground. Getting a steady stream of users is better for Lemmy’s culture, than a full exodus event, imo. It gives us a chance to not be reddit, but something better.

Could someone perhaps explain the major use cases or give a real life example of a time you’ve needed to use awk? I’ve been using Linux casually for quite a long time now, and although I learned the basics of the tool, I can’t recall having ever felt I had a need for it. If I want to glue a bunch of cli stuff together and need to do some text processing, it generally seems like it’d be easier to just use a simple python script.

Is it more for situations that need to be compatible with most *nix systems and you might not necessarily have access to a higher level scripting language?

That’s not correct though. Just like most people don’t want a car that’ll spontaneously combust, they also don’t want a car that will be likely to be vandalised. I’m not saying it’s justified, but continued vandalism does lower the utility value of the vehicle and dissuades future purchases of would be buyers.

Mon dieu!

The AI industry certainly does.

If you’re going to use an LLM, it’s pretty straightforward to roll your own with something like LM Studio, though.

OK, you asked for it. I’m binding super+P to open pornhub in a private window.

I kinda thought that’s what they were getting at, that there are other brands that deserved scorn just as badly, and we generally don’t take out our frustrations on the owners.

people need to take a step back and look at who they are hurting with this and how realistic it is to expect people to just get rid of their car.

I think after reading @[email protected] 's perspective, I’m certainly a bit more sympathetic. I guess I had a picture in my head about the economic status of the typical Tesla owner that they could probably afford to absorb the loss if they could afford the thing in the first place. I forgot we live in a world where you can finance everything, even your take-out, and that even luxury car owners might be living paycheque to paycheque.

That, and that there are probably quite a few people who got one for environmental reasons who don’t deserve to be hurt for what was most likely an innocent mistake.

Here’s the thing, if you own a Tesla, it’s already been depreciated through elon’s actions. You just haven’t realised (in the accounting sense) the loss yet.

The fact is that they are being targeted, so selling now is a method of hedging your losses. The other option is to gamble that you won’t be targeted.

I’m just about to make some scrambled tofu. It hits similar macros, flavour and texture to scrambled eggs:

• 1-2 tbsp cooking oil
• One onion, sliced
• Generous pinch of black salt (kalak nama) or just whatever cooking salt you use
• 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 lb medium-firm tofu
• 0.5 tsp tumeric
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp Italian spice, or thyme, or both
• 0.5 tsp chipotle powder, or other spicy capsicum powder
• 1-2 tsp nutritional yeast (optional)
• 1 tsp soy sauce
• 1 scallion to garnish

1. Cook the onion for a few minutes in the a skillet or large pan, then add the garlic and cook until starting to brown.
2. Crumble in the tofu, add the spices and cook on medium for ~10 mins, scraping off the pan bottom and flipping occasionally.
3. Deglaze with soy sauce and/or water. Serve (on toast) topped with scallions.

Notes:

• Most Western people probably don’t have kalak nama, but it really gives a nice sulphurous eggy flavour. Worth getting some if you like that and intended to make this regularly. It’ll also keep forever.
• if you prep the scallion before you start cooking, toss the whites in with the garlic, and save the green for garnish. I don’t because it saves time to prep the scallion during step 2
• you can go with a less firm or more firm tofu depending on how you like your scramble

I’m kinda conflicted about this. On the one hand, selling a car takes time and energy, and might not necessarily be feasible to do in just a few months, especially since the market for em is going to SUCK. On the other hand, if you continue to drive a car from a company owned by a literal Nazi once you know, then… well I don’t feel too bad for you.

As curious as I was about my own ancestry, this is exactly why I never did it myself. Not that it matters, though. If any of your close relatives do it they’ll have a near match for you as well.
