I hope your country provides good social support and/or that your bets and investments come good

The next one after nuclear

Much the same in Australia, though we now have more American style churches appearing and I’m not yet willing to judge the people who attend those

It’s nice that when Australia’s equivalent of MAGA came to Canberra (our capital) to protest, and they had far far fewer than our last workers rights protest

It is probably more of a reflector rather than blocker, sending the signal back through the wall

I think you’re fairly safe here. People using AI tools professionally generally like them, only overuse and careless use are seen as bad here

Out on general Lemmy though you’ll get down votes for comments in favour of AI

Imagine getting that design past review

The insecurity of SMS is the inability of telcos to secure number porting. If someone wants to compromise your shit, they can easily steal your phone number, if your phone number is sufficiently public

One defence is to have a second service that is only used for authentication, and never share the number except to those providers that need to message you codes

Luckily I don’t need to read or write bytecode and all that matters to me is the syntax

You do get the if in the middle of stuff though in the form print(debug message) if $debug

All plastics have the plastic type code embossed on them

I feel my daughter who was a baby in the early 2000s got some plasticisers in her drink bottles before those problem chemicals became widely known, but she was better off than my generation who got worse chemicals because less was known

Tap water doesn’t exactly have loads of electrolytes. I think though the normal advice is to give small children boiled water to protect them from water borne illnesses

It’s probably more important in places with less safe water

I don’t think you have ever bought a sippy cup. Cheap plastics don’t come with any paper except maybe a tag or sticker with a bar code

Yeah, most of those guys look like they have a lot of visceral fat (they don’t have waists). Only the two on the right look healthy

I got depressed and pretty useless, she got sick of it and left

This reminds me of a much more reasonable bad teacher from my childhood, which I still remember as unfair

We had been learning the vowels, which in one thing were listed as a, e, i, o, u, and sometimes y, among others with the just the five most common ones

So days later when we had a quiz my answer to which letters are vowels was a, e, i, o, u, and sometimes y. I got a red x, with “and sometimes y” crossed out. I don’t think we were given points but it felt like zero points.

I wonder if this is an actual child being taught not to trust questions or someone implementing the idea of get internet points by typing a question, writing a childlike a correct answer, then writing in pen a bad teacher response

That’s the same unit, with a decimal multiplier for fast things

I think before that even

Remember the phrase “it’s not in-pattern”. Another one is “it’s possible, but expensive”

My bg3 character is female. She was in slacks until act 3 where she could finally have a dress

We looted everything. I feel like there are two dresses in the game: the robe Gale wears and a white dress you find in a Balders Gate house near the end of the game
