661·24 days agoJust fork already. EndeavourOS exists, an awesome distro, so this threat is a triviality.

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Migration minister fails UK citizenship test questionEnglish
33·1 month agoMirror: https://imgur.com/gallery/migration-minister-fails-uk-citizenship-test-question-GJgiKa0, because The Independent is an absolute dogshit ads/analytics infested website.
The dogshit:

I had to use Tor Browser to load the video because my hosts file blocks all ad/analytics domains using hBlock. Then used OBS Studio to record the video. Then took two screenshots of the uBlock Origin interface and stitched it together with Photopea. All because of human
ingenuitystupidity. Goddamn.

Hallo daar :)
If anyone could get me into their Discord again that would be awesome. I threw myself out and realized their invite link had just been removed, so couldn’t get back in.
It was indispensable to know whether they are doing a show in my country or not.

12·1 month agoIt’s frightening actually. Athletes and their families are being threatened in order to influence their performance: “if you will win, you will lose your hands”, with a picture of a gun, sent to a tennis player, including the most sensitive personal details of his family members, like address.
I despised gambling already, but with this Polymarket bullshit, it should be outlawed in its totality. God why are humans so stupid.

2·1 month agoFortunately. I gave mine, a gift from work, to my parents at first because I didn’t want to choose restaurants or events and stuff, not my thing. Then they emailed me what horrible experience they had trying to activate it, even though I had already explained to order first and only then insert the code. The customer support said they would have to pay extra and stuff, asking where they bought the ticket yada yada; I was pissed I caused them stress. Had I known I would’ve never. I wonder when and why it all went wrong with that company.

3·1 month agoYeah once I got to know of what Nestlé does I stopped buying anything related to them. The longer I live the more I become convinced that it is indeed the sociopaths who rise to the top and pretty much run “everything”.

pics@lemmy.world•Bloody backpack of Iranian girl killed in US-Israeli attack on Iranian elementary schoolEnglish

One less religious despot, good. Too bad it took two other despots to do it though; would’ve preferred the Iranian people’s uprising had sufficed. But, I don’t understand the attack on an elementary school. Was it hit due to collateral damage?

Perfection. Really. Especially with those pollen as you mentioned. This is without focus stacking I therefore assume?
Would you mind telling which camera you used as well? I’m looking to invest in completely new gear for macro and wildlife and been eyeing OM System, but cannot yet tell if it’s hype and good marketing or really a game changer because so many review videos are “sponsored” by OM System.
