They made the FART lady get a new plate after someone complained, although they let her keep the actual plate. I would bet the same thing happened to the SHART lady after this got more publicity.
People used to post Piped/Invidious links all the time, but that eventually became a problem because it meant the link often went to a different proxy than the one that might be a user’s preferred server, and it made it harder to copy the link for use with a preferred server. After some discussion, the consensus became that people should just post the YouTube URL as the main link so users could utilize the preferred proxy they likely already have configured, and then (optionally) include a Piped/Invidious link in the body text for those who don’t currently use a proxy but would like to try it.
jqubed@lemmy.worldto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL in 1971, a Soviet ship encountered a strange brown cloud near Vozrozhdeniya Island, triggering a deadly smallpox outbreak the USSR tried to cover upEnglish11·6 days agoHaving not watched the video, was the leak a real accident or one of those times where governments decide to experiment on their own soldiers without telling them they’re in an experiment?
I’ve sometimes wondered what life looks like for people after they get out of the industry and get older. Did your past career affect your future jobs? Was it something you told romantic partners? Did you ever tell family members, at the time or later? Were you ever worried about people finding out about your career? Sometimes you hear about all these people doing online work like Only Fans or similar, and while some are making lots of money, many presumably aren’t, and it leaves me wondering if in the future the ones who didn’t make it will feel like it was worth the effort.
jqubed@lemmy.worldto Technology@programming.dev•Palantir signs a deal with The Nuclear Company under which the startup will pay Palantir $100M over five years to develop AI software for the nuclear industryEnglish9·6 days agoRemember how many runtimes like Java and others specifically called out in their TOU that they were not to be used in critical applications that could threaten public safety like air traffic control or nuclear energy?
jqubed@lemmy.worldto Pulse of Truth@infosec.pub•FBI used bitcoin wallet records to peg notorious IntelBroker as UK nationalEnglish1·7 days agoI never understood how transactions were supposed to be anonymous if every single one ever made was recorded on the blockchain. The argument a long time ago seemed to be that the sheer volume of transactions would make it impossible to reasonably handle, but in the past couple years I’ve seen more and more stories where the FBI has tools that let them trace transactions and use them in arrests of people engaged in crimes that have netted millions of dollars. Maybe right now it’s still only worth doing on major crimes, but I assume it will only get easier and more available with time.
jqubed@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.zip•VMware perpetual license holder receives audit letter from BroadcomEnglish4·7 days agoI’d be surprised if this takes down Broadcom altogether, but could certainly kill the division. Oracle still exists, after all, even though they basically killed Sun and Java.
I went from being in a programming class (AP C++) when the first plane hit, hearing confusing information during the break to change classes, to actually in a literature/media studies class where we watched the second plane hit and saw the towers fall.

Doesn't matter if you're right or wrong, what matters is that you're paid.English6·7 days agoWait, she went on parental leave from her job, as in having a newborn baby, and used that time to get a master’s degree? Either the baby didn’t spend much time with mom or the degree is a joke, because I have a really hard time imagining having the energy to work on a serious master’s degree in a year or less while taking care of an infant!

jqubed@lemmy.worldto Apple@lemmy.zip•EU stickers show how iPhones compare to other phones, Apple not happy with the regulation213·11 days agoThe only thing in the article where Apple seems remotely unhappy is they found some of the tests ambiguous and voluntarily lowered some of their scores by one level in case a third-party tests differently. So by their testing the battery life gets an A, but they’re labeling it as a B just to be safe. They might not like the labeling, but many of their flagship competitors aren’t going to be doing noticeably better than them on most of the metrics.
Fries are usually not going to get you laid. But sharing a couple fries would’ve improved anon’s likability among that girl and maybe her friends, which is probably not a bad thing.
