In Old English it’s “beomodor”, literally “bee mother”

The year of the ReactOS desktop?

On a serious note, I suspect the IOT version doesn’t have this requirement.

Do you think it’s deliberate how similar that name is to “enteral”?

Apple puts a DRM chip in their peripherals, the fault for this happening is mostly on them.

I don’t see how that makes sense as a statement, an ai with access to a 56k modem can send a fax. It feels like they’re just using ai as a buzzword.

Total recall (1990) was better than the book it was based on IMO.

IIRC that’s down to mastodon’s implementation of outboxes being broken.

Lemmy is pseudoanonymous, not anonymous, since we all have noms de plume.

I imagine it wouldn’t be hard to add that functionality to an instance, but given the pearl clutching Lemmy instance admins are prone to it would be defed pretty quickly.

From what I’ve seen 4chan seems to be able to keep at least two of those out with captcha and jannnies.

You’d probably need to limit anonymous posting to local communities to prevent issues though.

RobotToaster ,
@RobotToaster@mander.xyz avatar

It could always use an “anonymous” pseudo-account, (ie, have anonymous posts federate as [email protected]), or a pseudo-account per post ([email protected], anonymous2, etc). Thinking about it, the former has the advantage of being easy to block by instances or comms that don’t like it.

RobotToaster ,
@RobotToaster@mander.xyz avatar

My point was more that instance admins defed for things that are comparatively minor, relative to allowing anonymous posting, not that allowing anonymous posting is a good idea (even if it’s technically possible).

Coroner is mostly a legal and administrative position I think, medical examiners are the ones who actually oversee autopsies.

With the rise of inexpensive 3d printers, I wonder if milling would be a cheaper option.

We had a PCB mill at the university I went to, a “few” years ago.

Only for the IOT version which is for devices like ATMs, but it kinda torpedoes their argument that a TPM is hard requirement for windows 11.

One of my favourite historical ones was the John birch society saying Lyndon B. Johnson was a communist agent, who started the Vietnam war to help communists take over the USA.

I can’t find much on the mechanism of action (serine/threonine kinase antagonism), other than it’s been tried to fight cancer and failed, hopefully it doesn’t have any terrible side effects.

It sounds safer than the retinoic acid antagonist one that was posted a while ago anyway, I can’t imagine a drug that does the opposite of tretinoin will be popular.

Isn’t it open source?

RobotToaster ,
@RobotToaster@mander.xyz avatar

IMO the XZ thing shows the strength of open source, some turbo pedant found the backdoor within about an hour of it being released because a program took 0.3 seconds longer to start. That wouldn’t be possible in a closed source app that can’t be debugged properly.

It’s not uncommon for cars to be stolen and stripped for parts, it gets rid of the risk of trackers.

Going Dark: The war on encryption is on the rise. Through a shady collaboration between the US and the EU. (mullvad.net)

Under the slogan ‘Think of the children’, the European Commission tried to introduce total surveillance of all EU citizens. When the scandal was revealed, it turned out that American tech companies and security services had been involved in the bill, generally known as ‘Chat Control’ – and that the whole thing had been...

Flying the US flag upside down on ship is apparently a distress signal.

(Flying the UK flag upside down just makes people think you’re an idiot.)

RobotToaster ,

Yes.

In the upper corner of the flag nearest the flagpole, the wider diagonal white stripe should be above the red diagonal stripe. If the red is above the wider white stripe the flag is upside-down.

There are some font sharing groups/pages on VK. They often focus on fonts with Cyrillic support for obvious reasons, which I assume requires a certain level of completeness a web rip doesn’t have.
