What river? Asking for a friend…

I like how the reader is supposed to be familiar enough with the scream box that it doesn’t require any extra explanation.

I’m working on a PDP-11 emulator. I’ve got the basic instruction set implemented and have an implementation of ODT (the PDP-11’s microcode monitor) with disassembler. I’ve found a test set and an implementation of BASIC for the PDP-11, and everything executes successfully. Next step is getting the MMU up and running.

The tweet wasn’t easily available on nitter (it wasn’t being highlighted).

It just so happened to be the canonical source for this piece of information. And it wasn’t being run by an antisemite at the time the linked tweet was being written.

Exactly. The good kind of failure.

Hyperloop was always a project to sabotage high-speed rail. Good thing it failed.

That sounds like uncontrolled dosages of Desoxyn.

weekend = day_of_week in (“sat”, “sun”)

As a bonus this completely sidesteps the issue of what day is 0 or 1.

This article is such a mess that I hope it was written by AI, otherwise I’d be worried about the author having a stroke right in the middle of it

If there’s water between the membranes an alternative is to wait a long time for it to dry out (months).

Yeah, hobbit-serial architectures lack performance.

So the Fellowship of the Ring was made up of an elf, a dwarf, two humans, a maia and one hobnibble?

Oh hey, how about Madagascar?

“Clearly these numbers have a ritual purpose”

Nah, must’ve been thing

One idea to prevent tags being spammed would be to have them be moderated as well. Thoughts?

As I’m saying, I don’t think you need to: manually subscribing to each trusted instance via ActivityPub should suffice. The pass/fail determination can be done when querying for known images.

How about a federated system for sharing “known safe” image attestations? That way, the trust list is something managed locally by each participating instance.

Edit: thinking about it some more, a federated image classification system would allow some instances to be more strict than others.

Yes: it prevents things like death threats mods have been known to receive on the centralised Lemmy precursor.
