  • China is one of the oldest civilisations and has so much history and culture to offer. You can be born and raised in China and still not have seen it all.

  • Which is particularly ironic when they go HURR DURR .ml HURR DURR TANKIE AUTHORITARIAN HURR DURR OPPOSING OPINIONS NOT ALLOWED.

    Other than the tankie part what do you do differently?

  • If a military force acting under government orders board a vessel it is never piracy. It is an act of war.

    (Directed at the BBC who absolutely does not seem to realise)

  • God forbid you expect supposed "journalists" working for a massive news outlet to use precise terms. If they can't communicate a concept as simple as discovery vs classification of an animal accurately you expect them to communicate actual news accurately?

  • That's not discovery. That's classification. Huge difference, it was already well known to exist, classification just describes what it is, puts it into a category, and create subcategories within the group.

    People knew about gravity long before physicists did the mathematics requred to model it.

    Or as a biology example, was the dog, cat, horse, sheep, or cow only discovered when they were classified by biologists in like, what? The 1700s?

  • Can't believe it took until we invented writing to discover the sun exists.

  • People can run it to verify? That's how open source models work.

  • Honestly if you're at the point of suspecting that your Linux system is infected, just back everything up, wipe, and reinstall. Make sure to use a known good computer to make the install disk, and completely wipe the drive before install and not use existing partitions.

    People have mentioned Wireshark which you can use to monitor for suspicious network activity, but IMO for most people this isn't super helpful because it's hard to tell what's suspicious and what's normal from Wireshark alone without quite a bit of networking/software knowledge. Maybe there's more user friendly packet capture software though, something that can string the packets together into their respective connections and summarise key information like the protocol and domain involved.

    QDirStat can visualize the contents of your drive as an interactive map. Might be helpful for finding files that aren't supposed to be there.

    ClamAV is an open source antivirus available for Linux but I don't know how well it does at actually detecting Linux malware. Seems to be more for people running file/email servers to scan incoming file uploads.

  • Those "rent a e-bike/scooter for your commute" apps. Doesn't take that many rides to exceed the cost of getting your own. If you find yourself using those regularly just save up to buy an e-bike/scooter.

  • Honestly if this was possible there are more egregious issues on their part than using AI.

  • "I see the problem!"

  • Literally 1489

  • BOOOOO! FAKE TRADITIONAL BUILDING! LOOK AT HOW ARTIFICIAL THE CHINESE DICTATORSHIP IS! WE GET TO DECIDE HOW YOU EXPRESZ YOUR CULTURE! /s

  • Seriously, everyone NEEDS to get a fire extinguisher for the kitchen. And keep it up to date. We've collectively forgotten just how deadly fires are, if someone in the middle ages found out we had the technology to almost instantly put out a decently sized fire and most people just, like, don't bother to have it in their homes, they'd lose their minds.

  • Gonna link to this thread the next time someone gives me shit for adding a /s to what they thought was "obvious" sarcasm.

  • The dinner, a black-tie annual tradition bringing together Washington's political and media elite, known colloquially as "nerd prom,"

    Attended only by people who spent their high school and adult years bullying nerds for being smarter than them.

    An image circulating widely on social media purportedly shows Allen wearing an "Israel Defense Forces" (IDF) shirt.

    Ooh can't wait to not hear about this from all the Western sources who would have freaked the fuck out if they find a picture of him wearing a watermelon pattern onesie as a newborn.

  • Bro literally had a conversation with the soldier in the tank.
