Shoot them

We’re allowed to kill Abe Lincoln and JFK, why aren’t we allowed to kill these guys? Why does Reagan get plot armor out of all the presidents? Who wrote this shit?

I have plenty of WEBP and every image editing/viewing application I have installed can use it fine. Including, but not limited to:

pdn, GIMP, Krita, Aseprite, InkScape, OpenToonz, IrfanView

I think Apple users have issues with Webm & Webp? But the issue here is using Apple products in the first place. Losing 90% of basic functionality is what you expect when using one of those.

They are the strongest DRM on the market.

LMAO you have got to be shitting me. It is the bare minimum for DRM, it’s weak as fuck and games protected by Steamworks DRM are cracked almost immediately by casuals

Do NOT use battery electric busses when you could use trolleybusses. Or even better, just use trams

That being said, anything is better than diesel busses

We don’t call that gambling, no, no, we call that LOTTERY! In Georgia at least.

People bias their own experiences and wrongly assume that most people have similiar thoughts and feelings.

(Neuro)typical people and narcissists thinking everyone experiences life like them 🤝 people with an undiagnosed disability thinking typical people experience the same exact hardships they do and being self-deprecating over it

Man Biden is really trying to lose the upcoming election isn’t he. A year ago I would not have predicted that he would fuck up such an easy reelection this badly, but here we are. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory I guess.

Apparently Biden has always been this shitty when it comes to Palestine. Some things children just never grow out of it seems.

That’s more of the fault of Obama than Biden, although it is fair to partially blame his inaction since he was still in the admin. Appealing to Republ*cans and “they go low, we go high” has usually been how Democrats roll, but Biden has changed that attitude a decent amount in his presidency while still successfully driving some bipartisan successes.

man your bones must be turning into dust. shouldn’t you be chatting with your friends at the retirement home by now instead of being on lemmy, grandpa? smh geezers

… people just send SMS to random phone numbers?

most C programs are just C++ programs with extra steps if you look at them close enough

snake case for everything, pascal case for struct/enum/class/trait names, and screaming snake case for constexpr identifiers is the superior method of naming. FUCK camel case, java/c# naming conventions are dumb and stupid and cringe, rust did it right

i’m in pain every time i use scala/f# or something and i have to actually interact with those HEATHEN java/c#-conformist identifiers

can’t wait to use templates and have the compiler spit out a 120 page autobiography

English phonology, American English dialects’ (and other dialects’) /r/ is usually pronounced retracted, post-alveolar/pre-palatal (usually bunched/molar), transcribed something like [ɹ̠ᶹ], so it causes alveolar consonants in the same cluster to retract/palatalize, usually into a post-alveolar affricate ([d͡ʒ] – the “j” sound for voiced stop /d/, [t͡ʃ] – the “ch” sound for voiceless stop /t/, [ʃ] – the “sh” sound for voiceless fricative /s/). The term would be assimilation (of place of articulation).

“Dragon” /dræ.gən/ -> [dɹ̠æ.ɡɪ̈n] -> [d̠ʒɹ̠æ.ɡ(ɪ̈)n]

You can see the same thing with words like “tree” /tri/ -> [t̠ʃɹ̠i] or even “street” /strit/ -> [ʃt̠ɹ̠it]

Would explain simpler but can’t, break ends now, just know its because consonant pronounced in different place in mouth is conforming to being pronounced in the same place in mouth as other consonant that is right beside it (like with “in-” vs “im-”, “impractical”, which notably isn’t “inpractical”, or “incandescent” which notably isn’t “imcandascent”, or “indecisive” etc. etc.)
