That’s been my life for the past 10 years, you won’t regret it at all.

borari@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Serial Killers Have Rapidly Declined Since The 1980s131·1 year agoAnd leaded gasoline and leaded diesel and leaded aviation fuel and lead pipes in household plumbing. Probably lead in the cigarettes everyone smoked literally everywhere.
Yeah, the answer here is cancel prime and pirate whatever amazon video content you want. if you absolutely have to have prime for some reason, don’t sign in to amazon video on any of your devices and pirate the stuff you want to watch so at least your not contributing to views or their prime video ad revenue.
Edit - I see in another comment you said you unsubscribed, good on you.
borari@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Appeals Court Bails Trump Out of Having to Post Massive Fraud Bond15·1 year agoI’m slightly less mad now that I know this has precedent. I’m still fucking furious that the only precedent I’ve heard about is corporations and Trump, since the law should be equally applied regardless of absolute amounts of money and I’m pretty sure that someone living in poverty isn’t going to get the same treatment for a $50k (or whatever is a proportional amount) judgement against them.
borari@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Appeals Court Bails Trump Out of Having to Post Massive Fraud Bond131·1 year agoThat wasn’t what was at stake here. Trump was already found guilty, he wasn’t bonding out of pretrial detention he was having to post bond in order to appeal the ruling, which typically requires the person making the appeal to post a bind to make sure they don’t spend all their money fighting on appeal, just to lose the appeal and not have any money left to pay the original judgement.
So my expectation was that yes, he would have to follow the same court rules as everyone else and put up the bond in order to appeal. While I do think we should get rid of requiring pretrial detention bond, I don’t necessarily see an issue with requiring pre-appeal bond. I don’t know, you don’t want to create a situation where you’re means testing the right to appeal, but you don’t want people to indefinitely delay enforcement of judgement against them or to allow them to spend away their ability to pay the judgement on appeals. Maybe forcing either the entirety of the judgement to be paid into a more traditional escrow account, or a payment plan for the judgement to be accepted and that paid into escrow, before an appeal can be started?
Any way you cut it though, I can’t fault this chuckle fuck for playing the court game but I’m fucking incensed the court is enabling it.
borari@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•I lost my mouse a couple times and bought an exact replacement, then found the old one. You can see the evolution of the logo1·1 year agoI’ve replaced the pads on mine a couple times, the rubber on the thumb rest has a hole worn it it to the plastic, and the braided cable is all frayed and stuff. I’ve had the thing for the past 10 years at least. I know new ones are that cheap and that I should just get a new one at this point but the thing is just a workhorse.
borari@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Suspects arrested after Moscow concert hall attack leaves at least 133 dead; ISIS claims responsibilityEnglish23·1 year agoOh damn, I’m gonna have to find that shit. I am regularly shocked at how hard CBS Saturday/Sunday Morning goes though, they will throw some savage shit on the air for the grandmas watching human interest stories about Broadway actors and whatever the fuck Mo Rocca has gotten interested in recently.
Edit - Found it on a Ukrainian dead Russian combat footage telegram. Bit rate is garbo but it looks like even ISIL is full sending the whole weeb CS gun skin thing lol. Best part is the posts of air raid sirens and distant explosions from Belgorod, with the caption “Помста за вухо таджика”.
borari@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Gunmen in combat fatigues fire at crowds at Moscow concert hall, a big blaze followsEnglish2·1 year agoAh ok, I misinterpreted your post then. I thought you were insinuating that because refineries are civilian infrastructure Ukraine shouldn’t be targeting them. We’re in agreement here, don’t target actual civilians and slam as many drones as possible into refineries and any other valid targets within Russia.
borari@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Gunmen in combat fatigues fire at crowds at Moscow concert hall, a big blaze followsEnglish3·1 year agoThe distinction is not between civilian targets and military targets, it is between “civilian objects” and “military objectives”. Targeting a civilian infrastructure such as refineries, and even civilian power stations can be considered valid military objectives if they make an effective contribution to military action or offer a definite military advantage. The refineries being hit by Ukraine definitely meet that definition.

borari@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Gunmen in combat fatigues fire at crowds at Moscow concert hall, a big blaze followsEnglish11·1 year agoIf you go on to any of the pro-Ukrainian telegram channels, Ukrainians are absolutely rejoicing over this. One posted a video of the fire taken by a car driving by on the highway and captioned it “З днем свинячого шашлику” lol.
Hating the British royalty specifically also makes me think British. I’m quite disappointed more people don’t hate monarchy in general though.
I guess in 2024 nobody believes in divine right, and I recognize that the monarchs in the vast majority of countries with active monarchies have only ceremonial power, but i still struggle to understand how people in the Commonwealth realms, Belgium, Denmark, Sweden, Spain, etc., are cool thinking that some rich fuck is somehow better than them or important in any way just because their ancestor was the last person sitting on the throne when everybody decided they weren’t playing the game anymore.
Is it something where they appreciate the tie to history? Even so why would you want a tie to a history that said your ancestors were intrinsically lesser than just because they didn’t have as much land, as big a sword/army, or as much money to pay off the church?
borari@sh.itjust.worksto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•DMCA takedown requests - how responsive?English1·1 year agoYeah, Usenet servers all have a maximum retention time, usually around 3000 days or something like that. Any articles older than the retention time of your server won’t exist for you to grab, but stuff is usually reuploaded frequently. With torrents a super niche thing requires someone seeding the content all the time for it to be consistently accessible, while Usenet requires someone to reupload it once every 5-10 years (barring takedowns) which imo is more consistently stable, but as the other poster said having both ensures your bases are covered. I personally don’t really torrent anything beyond oddball bbc2+ documentaries at this point though.
Yeah, I can kind of understand your coworker’s thoughts of this was 25 years ago, but how have they not heard of the Sackler family by now? These people will never see justice unless the people serve it up to them.
