Yep, you’re correct!

If the pedestrian had a gun, this never would have happened.

Delicacy if you dip the urinal cake in it before consumption.

We need to keep them out of our bathrooms. Thank you for complying with our genital inspections. We’re on the lookout for perverts who want to look at your genitals.

Bro gripping that couch hard.

The interesting thing about this is that the dude who took this picture shared his story on MySpace. He said that the bearded fattie inspected his genitals for compliance, and then did The Worm all across the bathroom floor as he worked his way dancing out the door. Pretty impressive. Shrek is love. Shrek is life.

Whether or not you like this post is irrelevant. He needs to know if you have games on your phone.

Thank you for complying with genital inspection. We need to protect our bathrooms from perverts.

You can restore the social contract by putting your hand under the stall for a firm handshake. If he consents, you get a firm handshake and relief that the social contract is restored. If he refuses, then you have to deal with the shame and heartache.

I have a structured settlement and I need cash now. Call JG Wentworth. 877-CASH-NOW

They’ll buy your structured settlement on the cheap so that you get lump-sum cash. Then they collect the payout from the responsible party. It’s win-win for them.

They also did debt relief stuff too, but as a kid, I only remember the structured settlement commercials.

If you see something, say something. Community is important.

I know, right? haha

MAGA: “Trump Christ is just like us! He really gets us!”

And don’t forget the lore context behind this photo. This was during the Black Lives Matter protests in June 2020. Trump’s goons tear gassed protesters outside that church so they would disperse, allowing him to get in this photo op.

Vast wall of loaded diapers stacked to the ceiling.

You wouldn’t dare!

Props to you, homie. I didn’t personally know about your instance, so your character is courageous and exemplary. I’d like to think my values are aligned with yours as I’ll stand up for trans people, too.

While the likelihood of being served a subpoena to turn over your data is slim, just be careful. Remember - even if someone else wrote it, it’s YOUR data. If you already don’t have a great moderation team on your server, make sure to set ground rules and stamp out calls to violence and other things that would get someone in loads of trouble. The state won’t target an online community, but persons making active threats to the state (e.g., a call for assassination of a public figure, organising violence and harm, etc.) will get you in loads of trouble.

If I was on your server and some dipshit was threatening assassinating a politician or organising a hit, you got served a subpoena, and you were getting ready to delete your instance, I’d jump in and request you to stop. I don’t think it’d be worth nuking the whole community and all the data so you get punished on behalf of that one dipshit. Don’t think it’d be worth having your life destroyed because one edgelord thinks it’s great to say stuff like that online without reprisal, in our state-sponsored surveillance system.

Edit: on mobile so fixed a bunch of typos

Edit 2: On turning over data. In the discovery phase of litigation, they’re legally obligated to cull the request for information to what is relevant and in-scope. In my above example, the courts want the IP address and other identifiers of the dipshit that called for the assassination of a public figure. You’d only have to turn over the data for that one person, NOT everyone on your server. Just to put the facts out there.

If you’re subpoenaed and a request for discovery is not met because you destroyed evidence, that comes with severe penalties. In court, you’d have to prove that you didn’t intentionally destroy data. You’ll have to find an attorney that can protect you against a government or powerful corporation.

Depending on the country and jurisdiction, intentional spoliation of data will lead to harsh penalties, criminal charges, expensive financial restitution, and jail time. Would you want to serve multiple years in jail and pay tens of thousands (or much more) in fines just to protect the data on your server? Would you want criminal charges and job loss, and the incredible difficulty of finding employment again when you get out of jail? Permanent criminal charges on your record for the rest of your life?

If yes, you’re very, very brave. Most other server owners would just comply. They’re already struggling to pay their bills, including serving Lemmy. Must be expensive trying to get legal representation when they’re ordered to turn over data.

• When support ends, you cannot download any of your purchases.
• If you factory reset your device, it will not work. Literally, this is what Amazon said. You will not be able to use your device if you ever need to factory reset it.
• The only thing you can do is read the books you already downloaded.

It’s perfectly fine to no longer make updates for legacy hardware. But to prevent users from downloading the books they paid for is absurd. Ebooks are just fancy packaged HTML files. No reason Amazon should prevent you from downloading them.

The average consumer is screwed and will buy a new device. The more technical users will just jailbreak it. Regardless, this will create lots of ewaste as the average consumer is far from technical.
