In their culture the woman and her family are blamed if she is ‘disgraced’. Her family is ostracized by other families in the community, making it harder for the men to find or keep jobs and do business, and the social connections of the mother’s or other women in that family will be shunned making it difficult to find support during times of distress like illness, pregnancy and births, and even aquirimg food. Marrying off kids to other families will become more difficult if not impossible potentially ending the family line. The community support centers, or mosques, will turn them away. Siblings and relatives will distance themselves. If you want to destroy a family, destroy their women.

In childish terms, they now have cooties, ‘ew get away from me’. I don’t put it that way to be insensitive, I only intend to help some understand. Kids have a way of getting to the core of our social rules in order to understand how to navigate them.

A much much larger proportion of users are computer illiterate, especially federal employees. On top of that, the vast majority of basic software applications used are the Microsoft suite of Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc. How do you

1. Retrain an aging workforce to use a new OS.
2. Retrain to use new software suite for email, docs, etc.
3. Or rebuild existing software to run on Linux
4. …there’s more but I’m short on time…

The ENTIRE US govt runs on Microsoft. That’s a very big pie to rebake. Where do you even begin. I do agree with you, it just feels unsurmountable.

It was an aside joke, you Muppet. Dumping the potential deaths of millions on a random commenter trying to be facetious so you feel publicly superior is psychotic. Or am I also misunderstanding your intention and publicly displaying my superior observation for clout. It’s ingratiating to be told what your intentions are what you should or should not do. Infuriating to be lectured to about what is right and wrong. We are not arbiters of online moral behavior. How about we both try to not be jerks to people we’ve never met from now on. Oh wait, I just was. Talking to each other this way doesn’t feel good.

Thank you for the fact check

I’ve entertained the idea of traveling around to grift the grifters, but selling trump swag back to trumpers sounded too easy to be legal.

What a beautiful list, thank you. Oh look who made the list!

Rich people, and politicians, don’t go to jail in America.

No need to load the chamber, they’ll do it for you

Some days I’m just an autocomplete

Thank you for such an amazing response. You’ve given me so many great threads to pull on. I’m going to have a great time diving into all this. Sincere thank you.

I want to turn a Microsoft surface go 2 into a kali linux machine. I would appreciate any guidance pulling this off. I want use it for learning it security stuff, partly for work but mostly for curiosity. Occasionally I run across malware, trojans, and I want to look under the hood to see how they work. I’m assuming Kali is the best tool for the job and that Lemmy is the place to go for tooling around with tools.

A lot of Germans speak English, depending on the region. Also, I’ve found that some job postings tend to over state their standards, in other words, please consider my Duolingo subscription when reviewing my application.

This is the correct answer. Consolidation of resources and power. Sure there will still be those on the periphery trying to make something from the eddies and currents left in the wake of these massive corporate ships cruising by, but the vast majority of the little guys will drown. Unfortunately I don’t see another way for humanity to galvanized enough resources to create AGI in our lifetime. So there will be consequences, but such is life, the biggest mold gets the food. Then come the viruses.

A piece of tail

I would like to represent those of us who use Word everyday and either kinda like it, or just don’t give a shieeeet

I saw the video he made on tik tok last night before it was removed. Fucking brutal. But the guy pointing the gun at him was frozen. I’ve seen it before and it’s happened to me. The brain just shuts the fuck off. System overload. He’ll have the memory of that horrifying moment right along side the memory of the failure of his own mind and body completely failing him, forever. People were shouting “we need fire extinguishers not guns” but the guy just couldn’t do anything, even after the guy had collapsed and the fire was put out, he was still locked in place aiming his pistol at the body.

The Airman who self immolated could have spent the rest of his life trying to make a difference for Palestinians, now he can never help, and he’ll be forgotten in a couple of weeks of the news cycle. If anyone ever feels the need to do something, help, don’t hurt. Hurt never helps.

He’s reportedly dead now.

Party of limited government my ass. They just don’t want rules that prevent them from telling the peasants what to do. Stay in line peasants.

Fair point. I hadn’t thought of it that way.

“I’m good at multitasking” is just another way of saying you can’t focus on one thing at a 🐿️ SQUIRREL!
