AVincentInSpace,

My head and torso are inside my bedroom wall but my legs are not.

AVincentInSpace,

I was lying down and defined my left as what would be my left of I were sitting up. If I had actually been teleported two feet to my left I would have ended up under my bed, and possibly intersecting the floor

AVincentInSpace,

and despite all that he’s still the richest man on earth

WHERE IS THAT

I MUST GO THERE

AVincentInSpace,

Iran has been waging a war against the “Little Satan” Israel for decades. October 7 was Israel’s Pearl Harbor, in which Iran decided to move to a much greater extreme. Iran has been waging a war against the “Great Satan” America for decades also. On October 23, 1983, I preached the gospel to the Marines in Beirut, giving them the Christmas gift of a small Bible.

A young soldier, 18, from Worcester, Massachusetts, asked me if I could send a message to his mom. So, I had my camera crew tape it. He said, “Dear Mom, I know you’ve been praying for me. I won’t be coming home for Christmas. But I have a Christmas gift for you. I’ve just accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior. Merry Christmas, Mom.”

Is this article real? Did actual human beings write it about actual events? Please tell me evangelical Christians aren’t really this burdened by their superiority?

AVincentInSpace,

In every Israeli Air Force barracks, there is a picture they have to pass before leaving. The picture is a picture of Auschwitz and the railroad tracks with the words, “We, the Israeli Air Force pilots, fly in the skies over the camp of atrocities. But we’ve risen from the ashes of the millions of victims, and we carry their silent cry. We salute their courage and pledge to serve as the defenders of the Jewish people and the State of Israel.”

Like if I did not know any better I would post this to r/thathappened

AVincentInSpace,

Toys for Tots was pretty good last I checked

AVincentInSpace,

why did you put that link there

what have you done

AVincentInSpace,

last I checked most rivers were not that thin

AVincentInSpace,

well ye but I mean in real life. If you’re willing to go up to a river and flip it off you better not chicken out when you see how big it is

AVincentInSpace,

who is onyx? Google was not much help

AVincentInSpace,

OK so I found… the creator’s Patreon (which has no posts available without paying), the creator’s Twitter (which Nitter refuses to proxy, likely because it’s NSFW) and a bunch of photos of a totally unrelated facecam YouTuber named Dross

AVincentInSpace,

Do you realize how many Tumblrites this would work on

AVincentInSpace,

…you are aware of Tumblr’s suspiciously large monsterfucker population?

AVincentInSpace,

I mean I don’t know what there is to say that I haven’t already said

AVincentInSpace,

Well said. I’m saving this comment in case I need to explain this to someone else.

this is why we use [GitLab|SourceHut|Gitea|Codeberg|Forjego|Choose your favorite and insert it here]

(in other news it appears i have inadvertently discovered that the lemmy dialect of markdown supports {ruby|text})

AVincentInSpace,

I’m surprised no one has mentioned the actual messages humanity has sent into space in the hopes that aliens will hear it since those are actually pretty cool.

I mean look at this crap. Look at how cool it looks. www.plover.com/misc/Dumas-Dutil/messages.pdf

(I’m on mobile otherwise I’d add a picture)

AVincentInSpace,

I think they meant “age/sex/location?” which was a common first question when getting to know someone online when instant messengers as a concept were novel

AVincentInSpace,

So that the symbols would be less likely to get corrupted if the aliens received it over a bad radio link

AVincentInSpace,

Man you ever tried to fight an emu?

AVincentInSpace,

Yeah? When was the last time you clicked on a “Source Code” link and got anything other than a link to GitHub or a direct download of a tarball?

Sure, alternatives exist – I could name half a dozen right now – but no one uses 'em.

AVincentInSpace,

Why is end to end encryption a red flag???

AVincentInSpace,

oh, red flag for facebook, that makes sense.

but then if you care about privacy why touch anything Facebook has made at all?

AVincentInSpace,

I’d like to submit Rick Astley - Never Gonna Stop (not to be confused with his earlier song, and def worth a listen) as slightly southwest of the center

AVincentInSpace,

Why anyone cares what Musk says about things he knows nothing about is beyond me.

Likely because Elon Musk has built an entire career around convincing people who know even less about the subject than he does that he is an expert in this week’s scientific field

Nowhere did I say automation of all jobs was a good thing. The fact that Midjourney is making people who do what they’re passionate about for a living obsolete is proof enough of that.

My point was that if not even the most soulless, profit-driven bastards ever to walk planet earth can figure out how to save a buck by making a robot do jobs that we still underpay humans to do, it’s not because they haven’t tried, and it’s definitely not because they lack funding.

AVincentInSpace,

our individual existence doesn’t need to depend on our contributions to society (*based on availability, time of year, race, luck-of-birthplace, shareholder whims)

Good job, Einstein! What are you going to do with that earth-shattering realization? Go up to Jeff Bezos and tell him he’s being mean?

We can’t solve this shit in a day. I definitely don’t think it’ll happen in my lifetime and I’m not entirely convinced it can happen at all. Why are you going around saying “Why don’t we just automate all jobs” like it’s that easy?

AVincentInSpace,

daily reminder that no one is forcing you to look at it and that telling people not to enjoy what they enjoy is generally considered uncool

unless of course you see it when googling their name in which case why is safe search off

no shade for being a hater but the block button is right there

AVincentInSpace,

Unless we use videogame logic and it’s an infinite coffee cup

AVincentInSpace,

you’re assuming I want to talk to the person

AVincentInSpace,

AIs are worse at coding than they are at art, and that’s saying something

AVincentInSpace,

The problem with this isn’t military, it’s that it doesn’t work at scale. Even within a family unit it’s hard enough getting six people to agree on anything, and that’s when two of them hold power over the other four.

Of those tribes you mentioned that work how you describe, how many had more than, oh, 50 members?

AVincentInSpace,

It’s because we can tell you’re joking.

…you are joking, right?

AVincentInSpace,

so just to confirm you are saying you would be okay with actual real life mass genocide to get the world you want

AVincentInSpace,

What the actual fuck is wrong with you

AVincentInSpace,

You can very easily write cross instance links if you weren’t aware, e.g. !memes – this works on desktop (opens the community on your instance instead of the instance the community is on, so you stay logged in) and on every mobile client I’ve seen

AVincentInSpace,

question.

It seems you have replied to, and carried on a reply chain with (meaning that presumably notifications went both ways), a user on Kbin from your Mastodon account.

How on earth do you do that?
