A lot of people have trouble getting motivated.

Your comment made me chuckle a little bit.

I ask myself that same question every day. What’s the point of anything? Do I really need to get out of bed, get to work, eat food, climb out of the debt trap I’m in or even browse Lemmy?

Something like this could help ease that daily question from myself. If it doesn’t work, it’s fine. Worth a shot. Free is cheaper than recreational drugs.

but what about the ventilation needs of the cat

In South Africa, where I live, that kind of thing is a criminal offense known as crimen injuria.

From Wikipedia:

Crimen injuria is a crime under South African common law, defined as the act of “unlawfully, intentionally, and seriously impairing the dignity of another.” Although difficult to precisely define, the crime is used in the prosecution of certain instances of road rage, stalking, racially offensive language, emotional or psychological abuse, and sexual offences against children.

There are also a good number of other laws that deal with child abuse, so offenders won’t just get slapped with a crimen injuria charge on their criminal record and say it was just road rage when questioned.

Holy fuck how much money do they actually have

bro how did I get sensory overload from a black and white image

The only one that comes to mind is Hamilton Morris. I don’t know if Morris is a first name, but I really like the dude. He did a bunch of documentaries about drugs for VICE. Big tangent incoming.

Those documentaries are really good. He did one about Project Coast, an awful program started by the apartheid government in South Africa (before Mandela became president). It’s the reason why the country still has such a high usage of methaqualone (AKA qualuudes, called Mandrax or “Buttons” colloquially) compared to the rest of the world.

Project Coast did so many much fucking lingering damage. Poisoned baby milk, nerve agents, you name it.

It was engineered by this piece of shit who earned the nickname “Dr. Death”, Wouter Basson. Cunt got away with it. He’s somehow still a practicing cardiologist in Cape Town. Infuriating.

Main point: those documentaries are worth a watch. Not an ad. Pirate it if you want.

Also, if anyone happens to be near Dr Death’s practice, just fucking exorcise that demon.

I’m going to suppress my curiosity and not look into whatever you’re referencing.

I assume it’s like those badgers or lemurs or something 1998 honda civets in Southeast Asia (I think) that are caged, fed and shit out those special coffee beans that tourists just fucking love.

I hope that was an anti-depressant induced vivid dream memory and not a real memory of something that actually happens.

oh

lol

didn’t cross my mind that someone would make a CLI program in js

I mean, I’ve done it, but I am a registered dunce cap owner.

Very cool

are you under 16

no

ok cool here’s a youtube short when an AI voice tells you an AI-written story over vaguely related stock footage

The planet is fucking melting and elected leaders are writing laws on herding cats

I’ve been using the internet for longer than I’ve been an adult.

I still sometimes add +10 years to date of birth fields out of habit.

Might as well have issued a mandate to nom a spoonful of sand daily.

My friend from university sends me his Rust code snippets sometimes. Ngl it looks like a pretty cool language.

There was also that tldr reimplemention in Rust that is a gatrillion times faster than the original.

I really want to give it a try but I have executive dysfunction and don’t have any ideas of what I could use it for.

Sometimes the companies they subcontract, named something boring and innocuous like Isolace Data Systems or Wimblo Digital or some shit, fucks up spectacularly.

Like they’ll just have 400gb Excel spreadsheet called all_meta_usernames_and_passwords.xlsx stored in the company’s shared intranet and then some dude guesses the WiFi password was WimbloDigital2024 and leaks it to whoever.

A wise friend once said, “you should wipe your ass before you clean your home” he meant it literally, but I like the phrasing.

Get involved in local politics. Do you know the name of your Town’s mayor? I didn’t. Fucking former prison warden. I don’t recall voting for him.

I fucking knew Ive been spotting more of those fuckers who don’t show up when you’re getting mugged

I stand with reputable journalists and will be voting Joe Biden for president

I think it’s a joke

The setup makes us assume no nudes are being exchanged.

We expect that the transphobe is warning the writer that one of the people receiving nudes is trans. We then expect the reveal to be that the write is trans or something along those lines. It was difficult for me to follow too.

The punchline is that nudes were indeed being exchanged. The transphobe was just a subversion.

I’m sorry that happened to you. I fucking hate skinheads.

What led up to it and what was the aftermath?

.eyeoh

They never gave him LSD, right? Just made a lawyer humiliate him in a debate about his strongly held beliefs a few times.

How is that a ceasefire when IDF troops snipe kids and journalists in their downtime?
