Press Statement by Spokesman for DPRK Ministry of National Defence Pyongyang, December 2 (KCNA) – A spokesman for the Ministry of National Defence of the DPRK released the following press statement “Any attack on space asset of the DPRK will be deemed declaration of war against it” on Saturday:...
I must just have heavy fingers, because I’m always accidentally right-clicking. Sometimes left-clicking. I wish the mice I liked had adjustable springs.
Maybe if I get annoyed enough I’ll steal a spring from another mouse and see if I can double up.
No, the article says it’s going to the King’s estate, i.e. the crown, not to the privy purse, i.e. Charles’ pocket.
Is some of it being used that will ultimately benefit him? Probably. But according to the article, the policy governing this says any benefit to the king himself should be merely incidental.
This article does not appear to allege that they are violating that policy.
The prosecutors will recommend a sentence of 57 months probation, including home detention, based on Singla being diagnosed with “a rare and incurable form of cancer” and “a potentially dangerous vascular condition”
Damn, if that ain’t karma. Fuck over a hospital and its patients, get the worst kind of cancer.
Don’t worry, there isn’t proof in the article either. There’s a snippet of code out of context, and a video that, while it shows a loading delay, doesn’t show the code being executed.
Hmm. I’m not sure what the advantage would be over just creating communities on existing instances, then, if someone else is still going to be the admin.
I just found out that Osama Bin Laden’s “Letter to America” has been doing its rounds on TikTok but I haven’t seen anything about it been posted here on Lemmy about it.

So they want to unload, put it on truck or rail, and load it again on the other side? I’m no logistics expert, but I feel like that introduces a lot of complexity compared to the time saved. Like, would this cargo have to go through customs? If not, wouldn’t it be easy to use this to smuggle stuff into and out of the country?
Seriously, though, this is really cool. But maybe some biologist can fill me in, what are the side-effects of this? Would it also reduce the useful stores of cholesterol? Or are we just fixing a mutation that causes heart problems?
For Palestinians in Gaza, the most urgent daily task is the search for water. “Obtaining water has become like prospecting for gold,” explains H., a writer with We Are Not Numbers, “and whoever finds drinkable water is considered wealthy."...
That’s a bold claim. I’d be shocked if they had the manufacturing capability in Gaza for that. From what I’ve seen, the rockets have been North Korean imports.
JERUSALEM (AP) — The head of surgery at Gaza’s largest and most advanced hospital held up his phone Saturday to the hammering of gunfire and artillery shelling. “Listen,” said Dr. Marwan Abu Sada as fighting raged around Shifa Hospital.
The way they talk about it makes it sound like they invented the written word, but that notwithstanding the fonts actually look really nice in my opinion.
Because otherwise they couldn’t justify their continued work on things nobody asked for.
Also, those letter combinations are called ligatures, and are generally a bad idea in monospace fonts. The point of them is to make it very clear where one character ends and the next one begins.
Some people care more about having fancy tools than actually doing work with them.
On reddit, I used to subscribe to the VS Code subreddit. A lot of posts were just about themes, people asking “what theme is this” or posting their latest minor recolor. Meanwhile, I’m there for posts about actually using the damn thing.

LONDON (AP) — Four men were charged Monday over the theft of an 18-carat gold toilet from Blenheim Palace, the sprawling English country mansion where British wartime leader Winston Churchill was born.
Interestingly, the first vote failed, there were a bunch of speeches, then the second vote passed. It would be interesting to see who changed their vote, and what was said in the speeches to change their minds. (I didn’t read the whole thing because I don’t think this censure has much consequence.)

I’m not following. If you’re talking about cerebral hypoxia, it requires requires oxygen deprivation on the order of minutes, while carotid holds are effective on the order of seconds.
It looks like he was sentenced to a bit over three years for that crime, and was released after serving it, then kept in detention while they tried to deport him. And since they can’t deport him, they can’t keep him in detention. And he’s served his sentence for the crime, so he’s free to go. I think this is legally the right thing to do.
I’m not sure that such a short sentence was the right thing in the first place, but I didn’t see any articles about the original conviction, so I have no idea what the circumstances were, so I have to assume the court felt that that sentence was appropriate.
It is not common knowledge, because I’d never heard that until just now. Seems like a backronym to me, and the name “tea party” references the anti-tax event in 1773.

I don’t see how you figure. Bruen only eliminated subjective “suitability” determinations in may-issue permitting. Objective criteria, like criminal history, are still allowed.
