Or any of the bunkers, or any administrative building. Also keep the fuck away from schools

Without food, ~2 days, give or take.

Most important context regarding Brazil: the majority of judges see themselves as little gods. The absolute worst thing that can legally happen to one is being retired early.

By Brazilian law, this should have counted as rape, end of story. The judge’s reasoning is more twisted than a sailor’s knot: “consensual affectionate link” because the mother was “ok with it”. This wasn’t a case of a judge being bought (which happens a lot aroud here), because the perpetrator is poor.

Now, the really interesting thing: said judge, Magid Lauef Lauar, is a sexual harasser. Due to the CSA case gaining large media attention, some victims of his advances have decided to finally break the silence. Two women that were interns in 1997 and 2009, the third is his nephew, in 2016, when the boy was 14 - https://www.estadao.com.br/politica/raquel-landim/vitimas-de-desembargador-que-absolveu-estuprador-vem-a-publico-e-a-justica-vai-ficar-omissa/

People don’t want to work. They want to live and pay for shit. Work is the only way for people that weren’t born rich to get money. Well, either that or crimes, but some crimes can be seen as illegal work.

Most people don’t want to feel useless, so if you cut their access to cheap dopamine (phones with internet, social media) they might seek out some work out of boredom.

What really sucks is that society expects us to be “specialists” in one thing for the rest of our lives, as if we are fucking ant drones or gears in a complex machine. It’s great for economists and the rich and awful for our individual wellbeing, though some people do enjoy doing the same thing over and over for very long periods of time.

“Slower economy = more unemployed people. More unemployed people = easier conscripts. Absolute profit!” - Putin, probably

We need more RL interactions to escape the internet nowadays. Depending on where you live, that can be challenging, as smaller places are less likely to have people aware of how awful the current internet is

I found it really odd that your server has to get a registration key from their server

Huh, I didn’t know that, maybe that’s only with the docker image? If not, that’s bad news waiting to happen, I’m afraid :/

Rocket.chat would be my first recommendation, tho it looks more corporate aimed. It also claims to support Matrix federation.

You could also give Jami a try, it’s p2p so it doesn’t need servers.

It’s voice chat features are lacking, it has no video chat yet

Might as well ask on !autism@lemmy.world

From my experience, people with autism tend to take everything they hear at face value, so it takes time to understand when what’s being said isn’t literal. Some jokes fly over my head, some of my jokes make “no sense” to people around me, I’m often seen as rude for being too straight to the point.

So, what you need is friends that are understanding. What’s obvious to them might not be to you and vice versa.

I use Youtube. It has more stuff and most of the time, if you check the channel you can get a good feel of whether the stuff is AI - like several hour long “albums” uploaded only a few days from one another. Only applies to stuff uploaded after 2023

“Fires mobile carrier”
I don’t know why I read it half expecting it to be about some sort of military ship firing its guns

From my stupid understanding of Korean customs and law, the judgement must’ve been like this:

Lawyer: “Your honor, my client, the tobacco companies, generate a revenue of 10 billion won and spend 5 on advertising. The NHIS can only ever spend 1 billion against us.” Judge: “Since you have more money, tobacco companies, you are more correct. NHIS, go get fucked for not being rich enough.”

The lower court said the NHIS’s payments to medical institutions were the fulfillment of its legal obligations under the National Health Insurance Act and the execution of funds collected or supported under that law — meaning the benefit payments were a duty, not a compensable loss.

It also held that the smokers themselves did not have valid claims for damages against the tobacco companies, citing difficulty in finding defects in the cigarettes and a lack of proof of individual causation between smoking and lung cancer.

But the court said epidemiological research has limits, noting that it does not, in fact, provide precise information about what caused a particular individual’s disease.

To be fair, the argument is scientifically valid, there are many things that increase the risk of cancer, so it’s hard to pinpoint “the cause”. HOWEVER, a judge deciding that “you can’t really prove it was the smoking that caused the cancer” sounds like someone “paying” for the “free gifts” he received from his tobacco friends.

For a moment, I thought the Just Cause 2 island was real

Not to mention that while the oil will be sold at market price, Venezuelans will be at the mercy of asshole-in-chief as he’ll control “when” they get to spend it, and only on 'murican goods

Filament printer? I’d print a couple of microSD card holders, USB stick holders, those thingamabobs that help you organize your million loose USB cables, organizing cases for card games or specific boardgames, some hexagonal organizing shelves because they look neat

Because the point was to curb population growth AND fuck future generations. Makes one wonder why such policies were viewed favorably by the west at large.

Portuguese^[1] doesn’t have that. People will use a variety of alternatives, like elu/eli/el@/elx, which frankly sound super dumb. It doesn’t help that almost everything in the language is gendered.
