A synthetic substance similar to mescaline, less headspace and body load, more entactogen, shorter and more manageable duration. Kind of like a hedonistic version of psychs compared to LSD.

Weed makes you question if you should get more snacks

I haven’t tried it in a really long time though but I didn’t really like it very much. Not that I think it’s bad, but it’s a downer and they’re just not my favorite.

Acid and 2C-B on the other hand, man. Haven’t tried other psychs unfortunately but I find them both great for their individual effects. Unfortunately, there’s the huge stigma around psychs in general plus the naturalistic crowd that makes up a proportion of psych users will only accept stuff like shrooms, peyote and ayahuasca.

You hit one of my weak spots.

Person puts text on an image “look everyone, I made a meme!”

I’ve accepted that this fight is lost

Lemmys memes are alright if a bit too much pro-linus/bash-windows

Your chance to go against the flow!

Regardless of quality of each system, it’s understandable that Lemmy’s userbase would lean more towards Linux as the reasons for using both instead of the dominant alternative are similar. Also Linux works really well for most stuff you’d do on Windows compared to 20 years ago.

But yeah it becomes somewhat annoying when people base a part of their identity on it. Then again, this is always true, regardless of topic at hand.

For several years I hated women because subconsciously I was angry that they are allowed to express their femininity and I’m not.

Wouldn’t the equivalent rather be women being allowed to express masculine traits? Which to be fair is well-accepted nowadays.

However, I don’t give a shit if people see some of my traits as feminine. I was born male and 100% identify as male. If others see my traits as feminine, it doesn’t change my identity because I define it. Think I shouldn’t wear long hair? Who asked for your opinion? And why should be awesome traits like empathy or openness be strictly female and not human?

By how the protocol is structured, it’s impossible for the address a downloader sees to know what the packet they forward actually contains, so they’re just taking the role of an ISP. Also, they don’t know the original source IP.

Unfortunately, I never got one, only the ones I paid for.

The goal of a banking system is to move money (possibly a lot) quickly, without physical exchange, for the maximum number of goods and services. States also want to control a currency for their fiscal policy, and they want to be able to go into debt.

Established crypto fails the maximum number, fiscal policy and debt criteria. As soon as you introduce mandatory physical exchange via previous metals, what remains?

And yes; Monero theoretically has an infinite amount of coins. However, it has reached tail emission since about two years, meaning the block reward is 0.6XMR every two minutes, which currently equates to about $65.000 per day. However, mining requires CPUs, which would need to be acquired first.

All in all, the current numbers don’t make it a feasible solution.

The amount of crypto you can theoretically mine is independent of your hashrate and only dependent on the block reward plus transaction fees… and these are minuscule compared to what a state needs.

In practice, if an actor held even slightly more than 50% hashrate, trading with him would be a major risk. Which means that’s about the upper limit of what you can actually mine.

Because for those states and companies, crypto is a toy and not real money. Also not having a bank means your transactions are always final (nobody is putting up with multisig).

Crypto has been great for buying drugs via darknet and taking money from investors for partnerships that don’t exist or make sense. Been using it myself actually. Also facilitates gambling, either via crypto casinos or directly against its price. Outside of that, traditional banking wins.

It’s also questionable whether a state could acquire so much crypto quietly at this point. Most big holders are either very publicly about it, like Argentina, or confiscated it from illegitimate sources (like when Germany raided a darknet market operator).

The value of cryptocurrency is usually tied to the price. The price is determined at exchanges. Russia however can’t use foreign exchanges as the accounts there normally require identification (some offer pseudonymous crypto to crypto swaps) as the exchanges don’t accept Russians, and if you want to convert crypto to a currency, you need a bank account calling in that currency, which is not happening. If the exchanges even transferred money to those as they’d lose their license.

The value of cryptocurrency is much less than what you see on CMC etc. if you can’t actually convert it to those currencies. Which is the main issue.

Add to this that most crypto currencies can be traced and having transacted with known Russian problematic accounts - even via proxies - taints your wallet, making it hard to impossible to buy and sell on exchanges later down the line.

This would also be fairly unintrusive, but could add a few false positives.

If this was the case, we’d have a whole bigger problem on our hands.

Even considering the birthday problem, the chance for such collisions is astronomically small. Especially if you combine it with the file size that you always have anyways.

In fact I’d guess that sites like these already do exactly that in order to avoid hosting duplicates (if not handled at the file system level).

That’s what Jon gets for not pondering

Fun fact: trampolines were originally called jumpolines

Ah, ACLs, had the pleasure of working with these again last weeks.

It gets really curious when even the Arch wiki doesn’t really know what’s going on (talking about mask and effective permissions):

The factual accuracy of this article or section is disputed.

Reason: The original note about the --mask option (which was taken from setfacl(1)) was determined as inaccurate, but the new note does not seem correct either. See the talk page for details.

From trying, I can confirm that the info presented further down is wrong.

Once you read what it actually does and why it’s the way it is, it makes more sense - not that I remember it now - but at least there was a coherent design decision behind it

You’re not supposed to “sudo everything” though. It’s mostly for changing the system configuration (editing config files in /etc/, running your system package manager etc.). It shouldn’t be a “oh, I got a permission error, better sudo the same command again olol”
