Victim reports his father missing. Police instead interrogated him for 17 hours, said they killed his dog, and withheld his meds from the victim. Victim tried to commit suicide in the room. (lemmy.world)

At one point during the interrogation, the investigators even threatened to have his pet Labrador Retriever, Margosha, euthanized as a stray, and brought the dog into the room so he could say goodbye. “OK? Your dog’s now gone, forget about it,” said an investigator....

Gimpydude,

Do that while explaining how that contract clause works!

Gimpydude,

Unfortunately, they see that as a feature.

Gimpydude,

Hey also flight documentation check laws. Most employers have to validate your eligibility to work, farmers do not. They can also pay substantially less to illegal immigrants and depend on this. They do not want them to have a legal path because that will cost them money. The system only works for them if they are illegal.

Gimpydude,

But it’s a free service? Why would anyone subscribe?

Gimpydude,

Easy mistake. The M stands for Moron, not mother.

Gimpydude,

The idea that Linux is not susceptible to malware is a really dumb take, in my opinion. I work in security and see Linux machines get popped all the time. Also, wine is good enough that malware will run under it.

What linguistic constructions do you hate that no one else seems to mind?

It bugs me when people say “the thing is is that” (if you listen for it, you’ll start hearing it… or maybe that’s something that people only do in my area.) (“What the thing is is that…” is fine. But “the thing is is that…” bugs me.)...

Need recommandations for a home server

Hey, I’m always searching a home server (already post here lemmy.ml/post/15083947), I was thinking about a Lenovo P500, but maybe the PSU is a bit too special… My budget around $140, will buy used parts and one of the most important thing is the power efficiency (don’t care about the peak wattage but want to stay around...

Gimpydude,

Try getting a used server. You can find one on labgopher. For the budget you have, don’t expect something great but it’ll be a start.

Gimpydude,

Telegram is and always has been shitty. WhatsApp is shitty too. Use Signal instead.

Gimpydude,

This is the correct answer. Both Alice and Bob approve.

Gimpydude,

For this type of use (larger scale group chat) I would agree. What are the flaws with signal though?

Gimpydude,

English, I can get by in Spanish and I can do menus in French and Italian.

Gimpydude,

The American justice system is about punishment, not rehabilitation. If it were, we wouldn’t have the death penalty.

Gimpydude,

Yeah. Ringworld was written way before that and Dyson thought it was a cool idea. Glad to see it used in other stories.

Gimpydude,

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringworld_series

Imagine a slice of a Dyson sphere, about one earth wide and one earth deep.

Gimpydude,

I read the fucking article. What makes you fucking think I didn’t?

Gimpydude,

If a civilization can figure out how to make one, they can keep it from sliding into the sun!

Gimpydude,

A Ringworld would be more likely than a Dyson sphere, the mass requirements are so much lower.

Gimpydude,

Huh. So commenting on the content of the article means it wasn’t read? That’s a really odd position to take.

Gimpydude,

220, 221. Whatever it takes!

Gimpydude,

You know, that’s a really good point, but this is on such a bigger scale and if it’s a known problem today, I think they would know about it by the time they can build something like that.
