Not only can you say it, you can get temperate responses and arguments on the subject and not the person. Sure, we have to deal with some absolutists like on .mil, but after a few weeks of blocking the bad actors, this is a really refreshing environment.

Edit: and to OP on .ml, that wasn’t against you. Be sure to search around for areas that interest you, it can be sparse but there are some real gems here.

If Lemmy could up its porn game, reddit would just be bots saying catchy things to each other.

I met Captain Crunch around 2012, really nice and still insanely curious about phone systems.

Target sent credit card information to the back of the store unencrypted. Bluetooth didn’t need encryption because nobody can get that close. You could stop 50% of malware by changing the name of your windows directory. Security through obscurity was believed to work, every automated oil rig in the gulf was operating in the clear even into the 2000’s.

Wild times.

Since 9/11 they’re generally locked off from the public in the US. I attended some mass casualty and terrorism training and we talked with someone who ran their city water and sewer. He had a neat plan to radiate the city water system he helped them defend against.

So drone throne?

Well that’s just, like, your opinion, man.

Well yes, I am a sane person who watched a nuclear program, monitored by outside observers, be refurbished.

What, you got a really cool youtube video I have to see?

This is a horrible take; russia underspent on their army (with current results) to upgrade and refurbish the nuclear forces.

Man, I feel like I’m playing War Thunder all of a sudden.

Trump body pillow.

Do you mean the equipment will take time to set back up? Oil wells actually produce a bit better for a while after they sit, because pressure gradients slowly equalize.

Was that a gun strafe at 1:05?

No, large inductive loads can cause a trip. The sensor is only measuring 0.006A missing between the hot and neutral, windings can delay the neutral output.

Inaction that causes a harm is an action. Say for example you’re a muslim that doesn’t vote for a female candidate because you feel she doesn’t do enough to help your people. If the other candidate actively allows great harm to your people, you failing to vote for the female candidate is helping empower the harm on your people.

I just hope we never see this example in real life.

Oh man, Rush. I vaguely remember his downfall from painkiller addiction, and he was some sort of radio pundit.

He won’t be in a history book; in five years nobody will talk about him.

Well so would Moscow in that scenario.

That’s very sloppy by the russians, so you have to wonder if five planes were clustered by mistake or logistical issues.
