As a compliment to the thread about near death experiences I’d really like hearing people’s experiences of losing consciousness under general anesthesia and what’s it like coming back....
Nothing weird. I’ve had both general anesthesia and the “twilight” stuff (versed no propofol).
I was put under general once in my 20s. I don’t really remember anything odd happening before or after, but I was sick as a dog after.
The last time under general I remember getting wheeled into the operating room. Then, chatting with the nurses/anesthesiologist, and then just a rush of the most amazing feeling ever. I got an “oooohhh fuuiuuccckkkkkkkk” out before passing out. I woke up freezing and shaking uncontrollably (I’ve been told this is normal). I remember parts of the drive home, and getting in the car, but not all of it.
Twilight was effectively the same. Got put in the oral surgeons chair, nurse said something like “here we go” and a rush of pretty good feeling, then out cold. This time I woke up at home with absolutely no recollection of getting there. Husband said I was talking a million miles a minute (not like me). He also said I totally thought I was just going to walk out to the car. My body apparently had other ideas. I woke up the couch in different clothes, so I’m sure that was entertaining trying to wrangle me into.
In Guatemala, a reformist candidate has beaten the odds and will become president-elect. With nearly 100% of the vote counted, the center left, anti-corruption candidate, Bernardo Arévalo leads with more than 20 percentage votes....
My colleague at work told me to stick it out through the first season. Neither of us were really into fantasy, so it was kind of odd at first. But man, it was worth it. Seasons 7 and 8 were a bit rushed, which really fucked with the cadence of the timeline. Seasons 1-6 are still my favorite show ever. May be a bit of a hot take, considering the books are so awesome, or not idk.
I grilled dinner tonight out on our deck wearing a painters mask because the smoke from the wildfires around here is so thick it looks like it’s pissing rain outside. Only when I caught myself in the mirror with my plate, mask and tongs did I start to think, this seems a little odd.
<p>Criminal Justice Policy Review, Ahead of Print. <br />Studies explicitly examining the antecedents of prison victimization are rare relative to other institutional outcomes (e.g., misconduct) and are virtually nonexistent for incarcerated military veterans. In the current study, we employed Firth regression models to predict victimization among a subsample of military veterans housed by the Minnesota Department of Corrections (MnDOC) using a target congruence approach. Inconsistent with prior theory and research, we observed no differences among veterans on the basis of race and physical or mental health disorders. We did, however, observe a relationship between an individual’s risk of recidivism as measured by the MnSTARR 2.0 and victimization whereby higher scores corresponded with greater odds of victimization. Implications for theory and correctional policy are discussed and directions for future research are given.</p>

This seems odd to me because bankruptcy doesn’t currently get rid of student loans (which is completely wtf, but that’s another issue); maybe the student loan payments got so onerous that they got into other debt?
I think lemmy is lit (althow i just got locked out of my account for using 2fa) so i made another meme today. i also made the Navantian “frigate” meme.
u/theGr1m posted this great explanation on reddit: (thought most of you would also appreciate it)
actually the “fox” codeword doesn’t stand for which missle on the wing you’re firing but rather the type of guidance it has. meaning you wouldn’t get fox 1, fox 2, etc. you’d most likely get fox 3, fox 3, fox 3, etc. maybe they’d carry more types but it’d be odd they’d fire all types one after the other seeing as you’d choose a type based on the target you fire at.
so as we all know the ukrainians would have the base knowledge to know what to call the missles they fire and they’d not do fox1, fox 2, fox 3. like in the meme.
for those wondering;
Fox one
Indicates launch of a semi-active radar homing missile (such as the AIM-7 Sparrow).
Fox two
Indicates launch of an infrared homing missile (such as the AIM-9 Sidewinder).
Fox three
Indicates launch of an active radar homing missile (such as the AIM-120 AMRAAM or AIM-54 Phoenix).

Genocides typically are never actually punished and their main perpetrators often get away with it.
If you rape someone in the U.S., your odds of going to jail for it are only 0.01% . A hundredth of a percent. 0.01 out of 100 rapists ever actually see jail or prison.
As an American, nobody would question Washington, Jefferson, or Lincoln’s presence, but Teddy Roosevelt would be the odd man out. He did a lot of great things for the country as well, but he’s decidedly less famous than the others.
My old laptop died so I took the SSD from it in hope to use it as external drive. I wanted to just overwrite it with dd for security but I decided to go with f3 as that would also give me the opportunity to test the drive. Sadly, bad results came back...
I can’t see the SMART data. May be something in there that gives me more information. Seems odd to me that an SSD would just go bad out of the blue - but if you’ve not turned on the drive or laptop in a while, that could be why. But honestly, it may just be fine after a full drive write - couldn’t hurt to try zeroing it w/ dd.
SSDs don’t like being left unpowered for more than a few months. All flash storage, actually. If you take out an SSD and stick it on a shelf for a few years, it’s unlikely that it’ll lose data - but it’s absolutely technically possible, and many companies won’t cover such data losses by warranty after a specified period of time.
Honestly I believe this to be a way more important issue to discuss than the whole capitalism vs socialism vs communism vs whatever else argument. If your ideas can easily be perverted by corruption then it won’t work.
I have some ideas but I’m just some idiot on the internet. I think you need checks and balances. Have at least two groups with similar power at odds with one another. One example is corporation vs government. But I don’t think just 2 groups is good enough. Ideally you probably want 3 groups at the very least. I know many governments around the world already uses this sort of structure internally (eg different branches of government), but I don’t think these solutions take into account the existence of mega corporations that can act across country borders.
I learned that “capitalism” is an economic system, not a system of government.
Consider for 3 seconds that what you “learned” about the world is a product of the system that produced it
Capitalism is a system of government, and in capitalist countries, they teach their citizens that capitalism is at at odds with the state and not working in conjunction with it
This has been on my mind lately. My dad is going through it, his sister has got it pretty bad and I apparently have the predisposed gene to get in my future....
This thread makea me think of dark souls 1, where Siglinde of Catharina had to kill her father as he went hollow.
But seriosly, you seem like quiet a good parent, maybe adopt children, if you don’t want them to have bad odds of getting Alzheimer. Also realisticly your partner would be the first person who’d take care of you.
It might have. I’ve tried nixos on a mini PC meant as a home server, so most configuration is done via SSH and users don’t change (much), I might have accidently activate it while trying nixos out.
Making users unable to login is a bit of an odd (side?) Effect, but maybe I’m not understanding the purpose of this option correctly. I’ll stay away from it for now :D
Semi-ferrous microparticles gather in the mesosphere due to static attraction, however they repel each other such that they remain evenly dispersed much like a gas, and are carried by the wind. As these particles pass cooler zones below, they tend to dip down and effectively “shear off” chunks of stratospheric cirrus type cloud formations, leaving the clouds appearing oddly faceted. The harvested moisture from the cloud formation causes the particles to oxidize rapidly, and the low pressure environment means the oxides jump a phase during transition, and sublimate to gases once again, within the mesosphere.
They’re likely not fake; odds are there are loads of people who will buy this product and never have an issue. The problem is that some small percentage will experience catastrophic loss, and who wants to roll those dice?

It’s odd, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a lefty or a gay person outright killing someone over a Dixie or Trump flag. I keep reading about far-righties killing people over the scary rainbow flag though
Nowhere in that text does it say “managers are the real software architects”. What it does say is “what managers do affects software architecture”.
Totally 👍I’d take it even a step further to say that he doesn’t even mention managers (or any other role) in the text-- It’s the comic that states that, as you say. It’s debatable to what extent the comic and the text should be read as one unit, but I think it’s fair to contextualize them together.
If you’re right about the intent-- i.e. to say “let’s make sure to bring in the people who are good at architecture–” then I think at best, it’s poorly articulated. It’d an odd move to post a comic that elevates his role and then not mention those people at all, right? Instead, he makes vague calls to “collaborate” and “align,” which many people hear as “schedule meetings and do manager stuff,” and then imply that that’s how software gets architected, because… Conway’s Law?
I still think it’s nice of you to try to interpret it charitably, though. I imagine if we shared this thread with this manager, he probably wouldn’t double down on how, no, really, Management are the real architects! He’d more likely pivot to echo much of what you’ve said, perhaps pretending that that was what he was saying all along.
Then we’d be free to argue about Conway’s Law for the rest of the thread.
I am asking here because all the political subs don’t allow a question, and US politics used to seemed so simple until to understand this man came along.
This is what I do. I find keeping 20-odd docker-compose files (almost always static content) backed up to be straightforward.
Each is configured to bring up/down the whole stack in the right order, so any Watchtower-triggered update is seamless. My Gotify container sends me an update every time one changes. I use Portainer to manage them across two devices, but that's just about convenience.
I disable Watchtower for twitchy containers, and handle them manually. For the rest, the only issue I've seen is if there's a major change in how the container/stack is built (a change in database, etc), but that's happened twice and I've been able to recover.
I see you have poor reading comprehension, because the clearly says the plan to produce it. I plan to become a billionaire in the next couple of years. The reality is that it’s bullshit because here’s the actual reality of the situation:
You’re obviously not one of these few people. Furthermore, the article says the following:
Prices for raw materials used in arms production but not mined in EU countries have risen astronomically. The French government recently asked MBDA Missile Systems to increase its production of Mistral air-defense systems from 20 units per month, and has been offered only an increase to perhaps 40 monthly by 2025.
The German armed forces face an ammunition shortfall demanding €20 billion worth of new orders. At the current speed of contract placement, it will be 20 years before this is achieved. Susanne Wiegand, CEO of RENK Group, which makes drivetrains for tanks, said in February that only a trickle of new orders had come in.
Meanwhile, some manufacturers are obliged to struggle against the wider commercial difficulties of their owners. Britain’s Rolls-Royce has cut investment internationally following severe corporate difficulties. It owns the German-based mtu, which provides engines for tanks and armored vehicles. Yet mtu’s efforts to hire more staff and expand production are at odds with Rolls-Royce’s cutbacks elsewhere.
The IISS study concludes that belief in the permanence of America’s protective shield still causes Europe’s governments to shortchange defense. Despite all the fine words since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, “no major recapitalization of armed forces or large-scale procurement to address capability has yet materialized” — even in Britain, which beats its chest loudest in defiance of Moscow.
Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, the US too struggles to produce munitions in credible quantities for sustained combat. In World War II, President Franklin Roosevelt and Prime Minister Winston Churchill trumpeted the role of America as “the arsenal of democracy.” Today, Washington is struggling to make good on such a claim. Michael Brenes, a lecturer in history at Yale, has authored a new study that mirrors those of European critics of their own continent’s performance.
I do encourage you to try engaging with reality going forward.
