Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you check what community you're about to participate in before participating?English
6·5 months agoOf course I do. Mostly because I avoid communities that I know will be toxic as hell and full of chuds
This seems to be the opposite experience for many who have expressed that they don’t check—they feel entitled to be present and post in every space regardless of any context

4·5 months agoYeah! If women want their own space they should sequester themselves into a backroom with no advertising and an onerous sign-up process requiring an ID check that no one ever sees or hears about but somehow all women will know it exists because they have a psychic sense for those kinds of things

Technology@lemmy.world•"Tea" app - user database leaked today (incl. drivers license & IDs). Daily reminder not to give your ID to online services [THEY DO NOT PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION]English
2·5 months agoAlright, but none of that was really relevant to this comment. Why are you soapboxing on it?

8·5 months agoAs usual on Lemmy, the answer is just for women to shut up and listen to what the men want

10·5 months agoYes, trying to warn other women about a man you dated who abused you or gave off weird vibes is definitely the same as getting your nudes or porn video of yourself leaked against your will onto the public internet for everyone to see

This is the only funny linux meme ever posted here
I’m sure Google literally doesn’t care, as long as a more effective compression algorithm is used. That’s why they made it an open standard, use whatever you want but don’t demonize .webp unnecessarily
They made it because better image compression means less storage is required for images. Even if it’s a small upgrade, over trillions of images or exabytes of data saved translates into millions of dollars saved. This is the same thing for the delta format as another example
By making .webp an open standard, more people will use it, thus more space savings will be had by default
Have advancements in precision bombing technology ever led to an overall reduction in collateral damage to civilians? Is that even an argument defense contractors make, or are you just making it up?
Or has every study shown the exact opposite, that “precision” bombs actually cause more civilian deaths?
those bombs will kill far more than just a hundred people, far more than he can ever conceptualize. the consequences of those deaths will shape the world more than the extra microsecond an engineer could shave off of an internal Amazon function
The number of people defending Lockheed Martin here is staggering, but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised given the apparent makeup of Lemmy’s population
I’ll make this very, very simple: working for a well-known defense contractor who brags about making bombs is bad. Working for Lockheed Martin is unethical.
Working for a large corporation (Microsoft) that funds or supports wars (Israel) is also bad, but not as bad as Lockheed Martin, the company that actually builds the bombs that are bought with the dollars that Microsoft sends to Israel
Working for any company that could theoretically contribute economically to a war is bad, but not as bad as the previous two examples and is more or less unavoidable for working people
Paying any kind of tax (especially in the US) ultimately funds wars, and so isn’t good either, but it’s not as bad as any of the three above options, and no one can avoid it (except billionaires of course)
The “right targets” tend to be innocent lives as well. Besides, who said anything about precise weaponry? These days, it’s all about AI, where precision is actually not the goal
and it’d still work better than gimp lmao
this is extreme coping
