Even with it being federated I don’t see how Lemmy could be immune to astroturfing. I’m sure there’s some already going on. Lemmy just isn’t yet popular enough to be a major target. Instances can defederate from one another but it’s trivial to create a new account on a different instance and resume turfing. I suppose the openness of Lemmy’s logs, when compared to the closed-source centralized nature of reddit, could help suss out turfers though.

I see part of it here

Also:

On Linux Firefox uses less memory and no longer requires a forced restart after an update has been applied by a package manager

Super minor QoL update but I am all here for it!!

I only recently learned about the Dumbo Octopus and I think it is adorable!

Yeah in addition to the BDS argument, Coca Cola is the worst plastics polluter in the world:

Same, I wish this was ported to kde. Such a useful feature

Congrats! I feel similarly about DS3. Certain fights like Nameless King, Sister Friede, and Gael are some of the best in the entire series IMO, but the linear, grey/bleak levels drag on after a while and then you end the game with the meh Soul of Cinder. Plus that game is where the modern fast roll spam twitchy gameplay originated.

There is a Starbucks just like this to this day in a suburb where I worked until just recently. Every morning at 8 AM they have a drive-thru line backed up out into the surrounding streets.

Dihydrogen Monoxide

And I thought waking up after dreaming through a full work day and then having to do it all over again way bad enough

I’m a big fan of Humble Mechanic (pictured) content. He doesn’t strike me as someone who is unsympathetic to LGBTQIA+ matters, though his content never touches on anything like that so I’m just guessing

This isn’t the article I read but it has tons of info about this:

I read somewhere recently that AI data center open loop water cooling systems drain 100 million liters of freshwater a day and evaporate it away.

It means Mace unalived him

I find frozen grapes similarly satisfying

My question would be Why do the father and boyfriend wear perfume instead of cologne??

I’m a new member, and I was automatically assigned some flairs up on joining, but how can I get some additional flairs/memberships? I think I got FOSS advocate and anarchist, but I’d like to be in Free Software & Digital Pirate too!

The federal prosecutor’s office had asked for the man to receive life imprisonment – which usually runs to a maximum of 15 years in Germany – followed by preventive detention – meaning he would always stay behind bars, because of the potential danger it considered him to pose to wider society should he ever be released.

I’m not German so I can’t comment with any certainty, but it sounds like the life sentence is 15 years in prison followed by indefinite confinement after that?

beatings and kickings, or how he deliberately set broken bones with insufficient levels of anaesthetic. They also told the court how the doctor had poured flammable liquid on their wounds and parts of their body – and in two cases, including that of a 14-year-old boy, on their genitals – and set them on fire. He injected one prisoner with a deadly poison while the man had been trying to defend himself. He died in front of fellow prisoners.

The court also heard how he had beaten and kicked a young man suffering from epileptic seizures, knowing he had the condition, which led to it worsening. He later administered a pill, which caused the man to die in the presence of his brother

Glad this guy will be behind bars for at least the next 15 years. What a sadistic piece of shit
