As the saying goes: listen not to what politicians say, but watch what they do.
By his own previous public proclamation anyone cooperating with the extremist AfD is to be expelled from his party. If he had decency he would now self-expel.
So reportedly this guy got caught in a right-wing echo chamber of conspiracy Youtubers. That’s why his coup came so out of nowhere:
Unfortunately this just amounts to symbolic politics:
“Vamos a playa” by Righeira carries a lightweight, upbeat tune that vacationers might hum on the way to the beach. But the Spanish lyrics reveal that it’s about the devastation left behind by nuclear armaments. And the schism between trying to live an ordinary life whilst having a nuclear Damocles sword waver over your head. That it became such a world wide hit makes it all the more ironic. I love it all the more for it.
What’s the difference between run time program data and temporary files? Is /tmp just for system level processes but not for user space?
Saudi Arabi is hostile to Iran (as is Israel) too.
I’m the opposite of this picture. It’s like I have to relearn the game each time and fluid play takes a long time to return.
Funnily enough my muscle memory persists to some degree though. So for instance if a particularly tough enemy is charging me I might push a specific key without actually knowing what it does. Afterwards I have to reason and rediscover what I was trying to accomplish and bind that action to the key I pressed.
You can see that it’s symmetrical and that they used 6 diametrical cuts to make 12 pieces. So 2 are missing.
Not that it matters much, but this little dishonesty just adds to the zaniness of the whole ad.
git gud
not a meme per se but I always found the command abcde confusing:
user1: How to best rip this music album??
user2: Oh simple: abcde
user1: 🤔🤔?
abcde stands for ‘a better CD encoder’, the more you know
I mean taking the screenshot is the easy part, getting reliable OCR on the other hand …
In my experience (tesseract) current OCR works well for continuous text blocks but it has a hard time with tables, illustrations, graphs, gui widgets, etc.
That sounds like a useful feature. Which apps are you using?
How do you tag another user? Did you just mean you left a mental note or is it possible to assign custom tags to users somehow?
Is that what the Steam Deck uses? It’s pretty useful.
Iceland’s president holds a largely ceremonial position in the parliamentary republic, acting as a guarantor of the constitution and national unity.
That’s why.
You can export all your bookmarks to a single JSON file. it’s a format designed for storing and exchanging data between machines just like this.
Also good for making local backups of your favorites.
You’re right. What I actually wish for is a “export selection” functionality so that you can quickly drag a rectangular selection and export that.
Oh I wish GIMP had a “export visible” functionality. My workaround is usually to “copy visible” and then paste to a new image.
I tried using Krita instead of gimp but found it hard to do color management: adjust levels, exposure, color curves and such. At the time I simply couldn’t find any dialogs to do many of those tasks.
According to the study 37% of participants verify information before sharing it on social media.
There you have it folks.
Disinformation campaigns don’t need to be super convincing with the latest tech or elaborate fake outs, although it certainly helps. For the masses (ie election interference) it’s easy enough to to establish narratives, vibes by users simply sharing headlines to fake or manipulative reports. The people that bother to deep check and cross reference sources you typically couldn’t convince anyway. Sadly enough, most users never read beyond the head lines (75% this Facebook study estimates).
Think of your own feed: how many head lines // posts do you just scroll by w/out ever opening them? Even if you don’t share actively it still can influence the your perception of the world today and shape your mood.
Social media is eating away at the fundamentals of Democracy 🫠, change my mind!
