Yea well some people imagine the patterns themselves, too. A shocking number of people have a tenuous grasp on reality as best.

Yea, there’s little correlation anywhere with anything except people hearing spooky stories or assuming spooky things. Or the rare case where there is loud sub-audible noise or EMF that makes people feel uneasy, and make up the rest.


You hear a lot about haunted morgues, but that’s of course just people projecting their icky feelings toward death: The vast majority of people don’t die in the morgue. Similarly, the vast majority of people are long dead and partly preserved before they’re in a graveyard. Kinda’… proves it’s all BS projection.


Oh it was fun. The point is nostalgia is only serious motivation for brainless consumers. Why do you want people to be brainless consumers?
Identify what was actually great about the times, and propagate that instead. Not some copy-paste fairy tale.


Yes, I’m trying to remember what aspects were good such that they might be carried forward or spread. Heaven forbid I attempt to do more than mindlessly engage in nostalgia!


You’re missing … well, nothing that cannot be had many other ways. A sense of your neighborhood being awesome instead of just, “a neighborhood” is cool. Though the weird need to go to every door and and expect candy or a trick is … weird as hell, IMO.
So many other ways that can be more often than annual to create that cool sense of actual community.
The candy is awesome as hell as a kid, but as an adult it’s an obnoxious obligation that only serves to line the pockets of shithole “candy” peddlers like Hershey’s and Mars, here. Would love to see that replaced with anything more cultural than, “SuGaR tAsTe GOoD”.


At least you get to design the shape of the tear tattoo on their cheek for yourself before you … uh… get murdered for doodling it in the first place?


A random arrangement of my shit is more complicated than your brain.
Your opinion means less than nothing.
So… what you’re saying is the capitalists have never been trustworthy or deserving of respect at any point in history!?
Why else would one egg not ultimately be transferrable to one egg a couple month’s later!?
… OHHH THAT’S RIGHT, you want to alienate the producers from the consumers! Silly me…


The PHP vulnerabilities (yes there is more than one) are relatively easy to exploit if you can fiddle with what requests your server receives (easy).
The DNS exploit requires someone to figure out how to man-in-the-middle your connection. While that is trivial for governments, it is much less likely to be done by purely bad actors, simply for how hard “internet” integration is and how visible the problem ends up.
Both are big problems, but only one of them is continually exploitable, as the DNS issues have been largely resolved even before the very public disclosure.
Still. Seems like a pretty weird way to enforce that. Why do all the authoritarianism when the obvious answer would be to weigh your coinage?
I mean, I get it, but also, there is less than zero evidence of these machines not being used for that … … (yes yes, I know, proving a negative, yadda yadda, the point is it’s a silly superstitious concern!)
Is this why it is “illegal” to “deface currency”, despite every zoo/museum having a penny crushing machine?
(yes yes, I know, americentric, but the UK and US have a tight history most US-first clowns refuse to acknowledge)


lol no. Not in the absolute sense. Language IS NOT IN ANY WAY, “unique to humans”. Period. Ever.
In fact, there have been a few recent studies that show whale language is as complicated as Chinese.


Again, nobody is asking for the high level view or an analogy. They’re asking for a specific fix.


It cannot run directly on fat. FFS, even you described how fat has to be changed first…
Genuinely, your pedantry is pathetic.


The question is how does that, “issue a certificate” step work and does it require port 80, not what is the 10000 foot view.


It’s called an analogy.


Note how I said it can be converted to glucose. Note how all you did was describe how it can be converted to glucose. Nowhere did I say that process took nothing. Nowhere did I say it needs only glucose.
Just like your car doesn’t only need gas to function, and can technically ‘run’ on other things like pure alcohol.
rootless podman ftw.
