Someone has to know because scientists and engineers are educated in universities and not in military boot camps. Universities are the origin of all scientific expertise in a nation, including the nation’s military.

It would only be fair. But who cares? There was enough material before already. USA is ridiculous in its own ways, just like any nation. But they never had any sort of moral superiority, not when they enslaved all African Americans, attacked Mexico, invaded Puerto Rico, nuked Japan, bombed Germany, Korea and Vietnam, sabotaged Cuba, ruined South American democracies, supplied arms to Afghan religious fundamentalists, conquered Afghanistan, dismantled Iraq and Middle Eastern stability, aided Israel in the systematic displacement of Palestinians. This is just another low.

Where did you get that from? Why should Lemmy be hostile to that? We often get posts about donating to valuable projects and such.

Funny way to misspell vim

Not everything revolves around money. It is a hobby, in the first place.

A bug it is not, a feature it is.

It’s not allowed with books

Have you ever heard of the mysterious places called “libraries”? IA does not “republish” anything, it is an archive.

Why? It is finally time to cripple the Iranian regime. Iran has a horrible government that does not treat its citizens (especially women) much better than slaves. Those abhorrent people of Iran’s leadership cannot get access to nuclear weapons under any circumstances.

Hezbollah are actual terrorists and proxies of Iran. There is no way any sane person can side with them. Their followers will gladly terrorise Europe and Israel as a “punishment”. The world will be a better place without Hezbollah, and it may finally mean freedom for the Lebanese and peaceful sleep for the Israelis.

Zurabishvili vetoed that bill, but the ruling party overrode her opposition and promulgated it

I don’t know anything about Georgia’s political system. How can the parliament speaker sign the bill into law without the president? How can the government override her opposition? With a super strong majority?

AFAIK, the movie received a 10-minute standing ovation at Cannes. It is an art film first and foremost, and probably not for the general audience that flocks to the same old, boring formulaic movies a la Marvel & co.

Not really sad. Coppola is an artist, first and foremost, and he said that he doesn’t care whether the film will be financially successful. It is a passion project financed at least partially from his own money, and to be his magnum opus.

One of 8.22% 🥰

Nah 4K is wonderful. The higher the pixel density, the better the display (for me at least)

That’s some weird 120° though. I guess 0° is the cake lying face down?

Blender can absolutely be great at creating precise geometry, one just needs to know how to properly use the tool. Yes, the workflow will be much different than in other CAD, but principally, Blender is just as good as any other, or even better due to a more extensive development history and greater degree of maturity.

Prusa is a very FOSS-friendly manufacturer. Their entire slicer and the firmware for all of their printers are free and open-source. And they make really high-quality 3D printers. With 500€ you should be able to get the Mini, though getting the larger flagship MK4S may pay off more in the long run.

Did you write this yourself? Amazing! Star Trek and GNU/Linux cross-wet dream

Hey buddy, do you want to try some of this GNU/Linux?

Thank you for the strong counterargument <3 /s
