My mans knife attacks are the primary deadly assault weapon used basically anywhere else on earth that you cant get guns from vending machines. I know that is hyperbole, but only just.

I mean, for discharging your firearm in an enclosed space with tons of people around? Yeah, I definitely would consider the police at fault. Should the guy with the knife have been persued once it was revealed he was armed? Sure, I can accept that. But what I do not accept is that the police seem to, despite the absurd modern toolkit at their disposal, only have two tools they actually use: their taser and their gun.
Why is it that seemingly anywhere else a knife-wielding assailant can be subdued without blood being drawn, but here it results in several people suffering life threatening injuries and one dead?
I mean it would be pretty hard to imagine an ocean if all you knew was bowels
I saw Kind Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard recently and it’s got me sucked back into their discography. Their latest album, Flight b741, is classic-rock themed and honestly is one of the best albums I’ve ever heard.
I mean, yeah. It’s an industry that has a near-unlimited supply of starry-eyed fresh college grads to throw into the meat grinder, and the executives of these companies absolutely love to take advantage of that. Maybe if enough devs leave the industry they might finally have to start respecting the people who work for them out of necessity.
lol they spent so much money making that boring whale hunting game look exciting
That’s a cool project! I’d love to see more translation layers making vendor lock-in less of an issue
Kagi actually does an interesting implementation for their search summary and while not perfect, it is miles better than the alternatives in my experience. It uses a combination of anthropic’s claude for language processing as well as incorporates wolfram alpha for stuff that needs numerical accuracy. Compared to google AI or copilot I’ve been seeing good results.
While it isn’t perfect at summarizing, I’ve found their implementation to be “good enough”, and it can summarize pieces near instantly, which I think is the place where it actually becomes useful. Humans may be better, but I dont have the money or time to pay a human to summarize pages for me to see if they’re going to be useful to delve further into.
Doesn’t have to be a complex task to be hard work
My money’s on bigger
Excuse me NASA, we deorbited the space station for you. Can we have the money you were going to give to the spaceX contract? Thank youu
While I agree that an IPFS solution could be quite resilient, I’m not sure that the average person is willing to put up the resources or risk of hosting content. CSAM, copyright, etc, all become more of an individual risk that you’re relying on moderators to mitigate for you. (Rather than the risk going to the server hosts typically doing the moderation covering their own ass)
Additionally, while there may be decent representation of people willing to do some small amount of hosting of services (myself included) on lemmy, I think making this mandatory really limits the growth of your social media platform.
I think you could achieve what you’re looking for right now by self-hosting a private lemmy instance with signups closed, and this wouldn’t close you out of existing federating platforms.
That’s because you’ve chosen an instance that is more heavily curated. You can check which instances yours has defederated from at sh.itjust.works/instances
But if you look at the same page on mander.xyz/instances my admins are only defederates from threads.net and burggit.moe, so I already experience the fediverse as you describe.
I just feel like the whole problem the fediverse is trying to solve is admins slowly selling out and then having to move somewhere else. Having one website still has that problem of switching costs if you want to go somewhere else, you lose access to everything in that sphere of content. If the sh.itjust.works admins go crazy and start moderating in a way you don’t like, you can go sign up on another instance and not lose any of the communities or people you used on your former instance.
But then it’s centralized on one website and the person who owns that domain has control over the whole
To be fair to Odyssey, I beat basically every member of the secret cabal through assassination. I specced heavy into crits and there’s effectively no baddie you can’t kill by sneakily killing their friends one by one and then walking up and stabbing them in the neck.
Honestly, I don’t think I found myself using the bow very much at all and had a lot of fun in the more brawl-y areas doing melee and focusing on perfect dodges.
And I don’t think I can remember a time the game crashed on me…
Better ditch Lemmy and start your own app now to stay ahead of the curve
Nothing beats an El Cubano on good sourdough with a dark cherry soda.
I will concede that. The original comment was an oversimplification
