Bar Keeper’s friend will get that out, I use it when things get especially grimy. I’ve used it on a similar tub before that was pretty gnarly with discoloration worse than that.

It is very abrasive though, be careful not to scrub so hard you damage it.

It’s similar in a lot of ways and this is still an echo chamber and the echo chamber we have here has a lot of overlap with reddit… but, while reddit mostly just leaned left… Lemmy… just leans anti-west. As mentioned, there’s a lot of overlap there, we’ve got a lot that is shared, but the parts where those two groups differ can cause some serious wtf moments if you’re used to the reddit community. As far as over policing, moderation logs are mostly public and there have been some controversies, but mostly people just stopped caring or left. If you stick around long enough, you will notice policies being applied unfairly if you’re on the ‘wrong’ side and it’s a lot easier to be in that category here.

All that to say, you’ll likely have some moments where you think… Maybe that old echo chamber wasn’t so bad.

With ancestry, yeah, that’s going to suck and it’s the bigger database, but with familysearch, you’ve got an API:

https://www.familysearch.org/developers/docs/api/resources

Not sure what your limits are.

The data is mostly already there and publicly maintained. Ancestry/familysearch/etc should get us something interesting at least, data is a little bit light outside the us but someone would just need to go through it.

Maybe not an eli5, but lots of reasons.

There’s no stable, consistently updating client that everyone agrees on, the real ‘emule’ client hasn’t been updated in over a decade. Once you get past that hurdle, the setup is also a lot more cumbersome than other file sharing options. The network also has kind of a bad reputation because there’s not a great way to see if you can trust a file until you’re finished downloading it and people definitely do take advantage of that.

Not great things, but she did make it.

Not sure if the original dev is still involved, but the team has also renamed their company a few times and released (and abandoned in a somewhat broken state) a few other games.

I think it’s because lot of us have been just kind of over-exposed to things like this. It’s like, yes, I’d imagine you could do a lot of interesting stuff if you’ve already compromised everything else first, thanks pen test. This one is not quite at that level, but I think we’re all just exhausted with similar ones, ya know.

Only when it helps to keep the poors in their place.

Yeah, common VPSes are monitored too, it’s a very easy add. Alert on IP ranges from a publicly maintained and easy to find list is not a hard ask. If you ran it through AWS, it would probably pass a lot of basic checks. Using residential IPs will probably get you a bit of time, but I can’t imagine there being a good way to do that without it being very hard for the VPN provider to keep up and very easy for a security company to just make a new list of IPs and assume the whole range is bad.

Your best defense here though is that your cybersecurity team probably doesn’t care that you’re doing this once it’s determined that you aren’t a malicious actor as long as you aren’t creating too many alerts.

Your cybersecurity team is going to be annoyed with you using a non-corporate VPN if you have one. Any monitoring they have will probably have something that will ping on using common VPNs, but at most companies, consequences there likely won’t make it to HR. May make it to your manager though if they think it’s a sign of compromise.

If you read the announcement, it’s obviously a very carefully worded prepared statement from Sony that they’ve been given and ordered to pass out. The hackers reasoning is made up and just the best excuse they could come up with, Sony wants more data in their environment and they’re being forced to comply.

We killed 2 billion of them a week ago, but they just keep coming.

I’m not trying to make a value judgement as to whether this is good/bad/etc, but it is kind of amazing Iran is still able to throw any weight around on the world stage.

They’re not friendly with the US or most of it’s Allies obviously, but they’ve also made enemies of Saudi Arabia (and by extension Saudi Arabia’s allies). They have almost no powerful friends, at this moment in time, Russia might throw them a bit of help, but it looks like their only ally of consequence is India.

The engines are the weak point, not sure about two hits, but you can definitely down a dropship with an autocannon.

“Every person who isn’t a murderer is just a murder away from becoming a murderer. Timebomb!”

Never thought about it that way, welp, might as well get it over with.

It’s a shame, I was really pulling for ‘RIBWORLD’

They’re making money in the short term by cutting costs. Maximizing perceived profitability likely in preparation for a sell off. You see it all the time, but it’s rare to see it happen to something where the consequences of that are so public.

Not in production.

There’s not a lot of dev time to go around at kbin.

It’s a nice thought and I’d hope the majority of the Palestinian people might… settle for that, but Hamas itself is founded on principles that are fairly extreme. Their charter is real rough, a paragraph early on about murdering all Jews everywhere is just the start.

Hamas has defined their government based on perpetual war and other problematic conditions. It’s difficult to envision a lasting peace while they’re still around.

The official said the reason was that Hamas had not responded to two Israeli demands: a list of hostages specifying which are alive and which are dead; and confirmation of the ratio of Palestinian prisoners to be released from Israeli prisons in exchange for hostages.

This is in theory what we’re waiting on. That sounds reasonable at first glance, but we do have to remember that we are only hearing from one side.
