hypelightfly,

You seem to be reading things into comments that aren't there. Texas is a shithole because of the government running the State, not the people suffering through it.

I'm failing to see where anyone is blaming them for the shit their republican government is doing.

hypelightfly,

Mass deportation of children is literally (one of) the dictionary definitions of genocide.

hypelightfly,

EFF isn't trying to make money off of you or willing to compromise your privacy for profit when necessary.

hypelightfly,

Still trying to shoehorn in a "runtime fee". That's not going to work and with this model it's pointless anyway. Just make it a 4% revenue for sales after $1 million. Same end results (actually potentially more in fees) without all the runtime issues. Make it apply only to a specific version and later and after a certain date and then you also don't have the retroactive problem and the massive blowback.

hypelightfly,

If you use the manual door release in Teslas it can apparently damage the trim when you close the door again. Wonderfully designed cars.

Ashton Kutcher is trending on Twitter because he defends his Scientologist rapist buddy from that 70s Show. Twitter is not happy (twitter.com)

hypelightfly,

To be fair the statement was written after conviction. They knew and did it anyway in an attempt to help him get a lighter sentence.

hypelightfly,

I’m suing them for defamation for saying that

Not actually suing, that would require discovery which would lead to losing and more importantly forcing them to disclose their moderation policies. It's just an empty threat to sue so nazi sympathizers can point to it and "see they don't allow nazi's."

Consumer Nintendo Switch 2 rumored to have more RAM than the Xbox Series S (www.notebookcheck.net)

A new Nintendo Switch 2 rumor has surfaced claiming that the next-generation hybrid console could actually arrive with more memory than a powerful rival like the Microsoft Xbox Series S. The same source has also offered an update in regard to the Switch 2’s potential DLSS support and ray-tracing capabilities.

hypelightfly,

Having more RAM than the series S doesn't translate to "having hardware with some oomph". The series S is memory starved. 10GB was a small amount even when it launched.

hypelightfly,

Criminal vs civil trial due to the statute of limitations. Trump could not be criminally charged as the crime happened too long ago. The law limiting the time was changed in 2006 but that can't be retroactively applied.

The problem is that many alleged victims of sexual assault, like Carroll, cannot avail themselves of the criminal justice system. At the time when Carroll alleges Trump raped her, the statute of limitations for rape in the state of New York was five years. In 2006, New York changed the law and abolished the statute of limitations for certain types of assault, but that change does not apply retroactively to crimes committed before 2006.

hypelightfly,

They need to unionize too. Also count actors are included in the "actually make the games" group. Everyone should be paid well, don't drag a group trying to fix that down because the rest aren't doing anything.

US: Lawmaker introduces bill to rein in Saudi water usage in Arizona (www.middleeasteye.net)

A US lawmaker from the state of Arizona has introduced legislation in Congress that would impose a 300 percent tax on the sale of water-intensive crops grown by foreign companies in the state, in a bid to curb the extensive use of water in the drought-stricken state.

hypelightfly,

Anti-foreign ownership of domestic resources. Not anti-foreigner.

Otherwise yes.

hypelightfly,

So, "no I have no idea what goes on but I hate it anyway".

hypelightfly,

Yeah, gay people are just people like everyone else. There are just as many brain dead people as any other group.

You can be banned from lemmy.blahaj.zone for calling out transphobia

I recently made a new account on lemmy.blahaj.zone, because I’ve been harassed and doxxed on my old account and I wanted a fresh start with a more lighthearted online identity that I could be more open about my gender identity on. I’d heard blahaj zone was good for trans people, so I made my account there. And yeah,...

hypelightfly,

Hating politics is not transphobic.

hypelightfly,

Tarnished doesn't mean ruined. Trump tarnishing something doesn't preclude it having happened before.

hypelightfly,

Having her serve her sentence in the appropriate prison isn't tolerating intolerance. She will still be convicted and be in prison for the duration of her sentence.

Why do people still recommend Thinkpads for Linux when there are Linux-oriented manufacturers now?

I’ve noticed in the Linux community whenever someone asks for a recommendation on a laptop that runs Linux the answer is always “Get a Thinkpad” yet Lenovo doesn’t seem to be a big Linux contributor or ally. There’s also at least six Linux/FOSS-oriented computer manufacturers now:...

hypelightfly,

Could be worse.

hypelightfly,

Nobody should be using URL shorteners in the first place.

Got asked current salary, when I'm in CA and that is no longer legal. How can I report?

Exactly what the title says. I was asked my current base salary, not what I'm looking for. And when I refused they tried to pressure me into answering. I don't want them doing this to other people who don't know it's illegal....

hypelightfly,

https://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/california_equal_pay_act.htm

This FAQ for the law in question has a link for complaints. It's an equal pay act violation.

  1. Where and when can a person file a claim if they were aggrieved by a violation of Labor Code Section 432.3?
    The person may file a complaint with the Labor Commissioner’s Office, the state agency charged with enforcement. A written complaint must be filed within one year after the date the person learned of the violation.
hypelightfly,

ASUS killed off bootloader unlocking back in May and has yet to fix that. If you try right now, you cannot unlock your ASUS phone. They may fix that in the future and are saying that's the case but as of right now, you can't.

hypelightfly,

Not using grammarly also works.

hypelightfly,

excrete

hypelightfly,

Lemmy doesn't really hide it as they're visible to instance owners and shared through federation. Kbin also shows them so I can see the username/instance of the 7 people who upvoted your comment.

hypelightfly,

State law that he personally voted for when he was in the state assembly.

hypelightfly,

The sub itself isn't moving. This is a Mojang employee saying they will no longer provide updates or post on Reddit, or refer players there.
