There has also been an increase in the deliberate use of pyrotechnics as a weapon, including against police officers, firefighters and paramedics. Aggression and violence tend to break out on New Year’s Eve, especially in the bigger cities, with some neighborhoods almost resembling a war zone.

Police officers have been attacked with fireworks on New Year’s Eve in several German cities. This is why the security services are calling for a blanket ban on all fireworks. A petition to this effect, launched by the police trade union (GdP) in Berlin, has already been signed by almost 2.5 million people.

What a great reason to not ban fireworks.

Fucking please do.

I’m counting this thread as my risky click of the day

You can tell he’s a bad dad because he didn’t just start doing the meme. There’s no faster way to kill it. Just start doing it when you drop them off at school. “Remember, dinner’s going to be late tonight! Around 6-7!”

Dead in an instant.

Wow that’s a nifty relic! I remember when Mozilla stood for things!

My dad had one of these fuckin’ things and it ruled.

Selfh.st is a great directory and newsletter.

You can also interpret it as, “Read their fucking manuals.”

Tell me you don’t read the manual without saying you don’t read the manual.

I can recall a few! Mastodon. Lemmy. PiHole. Penpot. Mealie. Uptime Kuma.

They all mention required steps to upgrade between releases, including what to do to your docker installations and environment variables.

RTFM

It’s all mine.

Just like putting the second condom on your balls.

you’ll be sitting in a chair instead of breaking your back

Oh, you’ll still be breaking your back. (Invest in a standing desk before it’s too late!)

Busted into this thread to recommend Let’s Encrypt, certbot, and my favorite ways to authenticate domain ownership in containerized environments. Not those certs.

Only get the certification(s) you need to get the job you want. As someone who sometimes has to run the technical interview – I will ask you if you have the cert we require for the position. Regardless of your answer, I’ll then see if you can do the job (or can learn to do the job quickly based on similar experience).

If you have the cert but can’t do the job, you’re fucked.

If you can do the job, but don’t have the cert, I’ll tell you to get the cert ASAP.

THANK YOU FOR SUBSCRIBING TO CAT FACTS.

Now imagine it’s not a magic box. Imagine it is a computer program, written with intent, that was intentionally fed copyrighted material so it could make those things people asked for.

Giant companies operating outside the law at “the cost of doing business” built plagiarism machines off the life’s work of thousands of people so that horny weirdos could jerk it to Pikachu with tits.

The … grocery store?

Yes.

What exactly are you getting in that that you aren’t getting in the regular/stable release?

New features to beta test.

Fast and cheap it is.
