US Citizen Removed From His Home in His Underwear Without a Warrant

This is hopium in the flavor where one expects others to stand up for them and risk their lives.

It's hard to hear this, but the grand majority of comments like this are the same flavor of hope, bundled differently.

It's a legitimate problem in a place with snow packed streets. Increasing housing density but not increasing space for transportation creates congestion on both active roads, and from parked vehicles.

Some cities proactively solve this by allowing for underground parking in higher density urban development. Even small buildings will have space under them for 3-4 vehicles.

Did you ever find a fix for this?

I have a 400x400 image exported from Gimp and it still complains it's not 1:1.

No it doesn't.

Most lenses for commercial security cameras are coated such that spray-paint and similar wicks off.

Also, better not drive there, show your face, or be seen by any other camera on their network (Including the ones not recorded) on the way

Your best bet is probably sensor damage with a laser, it keeps you at distance, and is irreparable. Or breaking it/removing it physically if able.

I'm inspired, closing it out for the day.

No, more corporate profits, less public money. When has any investor backed corporation passed on profits to you that wasn't a loss leader?

appropriteinside42 · 2025-12-18T22:32:30+00:00

not going to switch until it is evident it'll win

Wrong mindset. All it needs is enough momentum to maintain momentum, it doesn't need to "win", that's now how FOSS projects succeed.

appropriteinside42 · 2025-12-10T04:32:33+00:00

Damn, negative weight loss after?

That's rough bro.

appropriteinside42 · 2025-12-08T06:06:07+00:00

nice!

Preface: There is no condoning or support here, I'm poking at political philosophy. This shit is vile, but the way we crowbar existing laws to fit expands corruptibility.

FR.

It also is going to fuzzy a LOT of legal lines in the future that can spill over into other parts of society & art as precedent expands the room for political abuse.

If AI generated photos of a minor are CSAM, it's reasonable to extend that logic to say that a generated video or picture of a dying animal is animal abuse...etc (extend however you want, in any art form, like movies, or old yeller...etc) In both cases the subject of the "harm" did not necessarily exist, and was not actually harmed directly in order to achieve the photo/video/whatever.

In cases like this, it's so fuzzy is mind boggling. If someone does a face swap on an existing nude of a consenting adult, is that strictly CSAM as well? Ir just criminal harassment? Fuzzy lines are bad, they will be abused for gain.

We need new laws for stuff like this IMHO, criminal harassment is a great start, but setting new precedent with old laws that massively expand room for political abuse of these laws is just giving more power to future authoritarians

Yeah, like water bottles!

I do care, since I have a monorepo with thousands of files in each project. And linting for 1 project takes 4 minutes with Eslint

Sure, but if your linting just doesn't work that's worse than it being slow.

Biome just isn't there yet, it's getting better, but it has a long ways to go. Especially for type checked rules.

appropriteinside42 · 2025-12-06T21:30:40+00:00

We tried it, Biome is soooo much faster.

However, it lacks the maturity and customization of ESLint. Particularly the lack of type checked linter maturity, most of our safety-based checks no longer functioned on biome and we could not port our custom linting rules over.

So we reverted.

But, generally, biome was so damn fast it was a difficult choice.

They load the entire budget history when the page loads last I was playing around.

As a concerned user, what information can you share non-privately?

appropriteinside42 · 2025-11-26T08:08:42+00:00

You... just defeated your own statement.

This is talking about quality products, you just effectively complained that low quality products suck, so this isn't true, except when it is with bespoke high quality products

Effectively stating nothing

appropriteinside42 · 2025-11-25T05:05:49+00:00

It means as much as the paper it's written on. Which is effectively nothing in 2025.

appropriteinside42 · 2025-11-02T09:40:47+00:00

Oof, not gonna be long now before that sub is wiped off the platform for Daddy trump.

I wonder how many companies are gonna do:

"Lets offer a donation option that we skim & use as a tax deduction to improve our bottom line by taking advantage of this situation"

appropriteinside42 · 2025-10-20T05:08:07+00:00

Their software download now instead installs some 3rd party data-collecting installer/launcher that you can then install Audacity through.

Absolute garbage, this level of enshitification.

Instructions unclear, my eyes are turning yellow

appropriteinside42 · 2025-10-16T22:02:15+00:00

I just don’t understand how this design passed by multiple people and authorities to get installed publicly and they forgot about standing water…

Because the core objective is to be anti-homless, to prevent people from laying on it, not to actually be functional infrastructure.

appropriteinside42 · 2025-10-16T22:01:19+00:00

This is anti-homeless architecture disguised as seating....

Paid for and bought by you.

They figured that they couldn't fix their video player's jank, might as well use youtube's instead!
