Would probably be nothing more than a software update. I wouldn't be surprised if they were already capable of engaging boats.

SkyezOpen ,

The amount of armor necessary would render it useless.

Try opening external, then deleting the "api" at the front of the link.

It's not illegal to be wrong on the internet, but don't feel compelled to keep doing so.

SkyezOpen ,

Gotta disguise being a capitalist country somehow.

Tesla is recalling its Cybertruck for the fourth time to fix problems with trim pieces that can come loose and front windshield wipers that can fail | The new recalls each affect over 11,000 trucks ( apnews.com )

The company says in the documents that the front windshield wiper motor controller can stop working because it’s getting too much electrical current. A wiper that fails can cut visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. The Austin, Texas, company says it knows of no crashes or injuries caused by the problem....

SkyezOpen ,

Yeah because Elon doesn't understand the concept of a crumple zone. God forbid a cybertruck hits anything solid faster than 35mph, the people inside would get splattered.

SkyezOpen ,

I'm not following. The first part makes sense, but wouldn't driving gas up make Ukraine less popular and less likely to get US aid?

SkyezOpen ,

Astroturfing. Ads disguised as user content.

You see an ad, you recognize it as an ad. Your opinion is probably unchanged.

You see a user saying "Hey this product is actually pretty good," it's more likely to sway your feelings on the product, or at least your perception of the general sentiment to the product.

Anyone know where I can find a copy of Shrek in 8k resolution.

SkyezOpen ,

Assuming proper level, mess with temp settings and maybe try a layer of glue stick glue. Helps big time with first layer adhesion but it gets messy if you don't clean it off. Though my bed is a mess and it still prints OK lol.

SkyezOpen ,

Make sure the screws are snug and the beams don't move. Level the bed, Youtube how. Then get a micro SD card and a slicing program. Slice the model, save to card, insert in printer, hit print from file and select the file.

That's like 95% of it. The other 5 is endless struggles and troubleshooting, but you can worry about that when it comes to it lol. Oh also keep filament dry.

Russia says U.S. is responsible for deadly Ukrainian attack on Crimea ( www.reuters.com )

MOSCOW, June 23 (Reuters) - Russia said on Sunday that the United States was responsible for a Ukrainian attack on the Russian-annexed Crimean peninsula with five U.S.-supplied missiles that killed at least five people including three children and injured 124 more....

SkyezOpen ,

Russia is also claiming they shot down 4 missiles. Their track record suggests that's unlikely. This whole story reeks of bullshit. Lemme know when literally any other country reports civilian casualties and then I'll care.

SkyezOpen ,

Us basically never uses em anyway. I think they fired less than 100 during the whole GWOT. Ukraine is getting old stock that was going to have to be decommissioned soon. And let's be really real here. They are FUCKING Russia up. One of the first batch wrecked a shitload of helicopters. Subsequent ones have hit other airfields and critical equipment. There's a video of a single missile taking out 3 or 4 S-400s. Catastrophic cook-offs.

I'm not convinced this whole thing isn't bullshit by Russia to turn public opinion against ATACMS just because they've been so effective primarily because they can't fucking intercept them. In the video I mentioned before, their best air defense platforms fired 6 total missiles to intercept ONE and FAILED. This article claims 4 ATACMS shot down. Not a goddamn chance that's true. It's more likely Russia accidentally bombed a civilian area like they have several times already.

SkyezOpen ,

Yeah dude had a frag detonate like 2 feet behind him and barely flinched. Hope he's OK. Also two in the neck while standing on the dude is brutal, but such is the fate of an invader.

SkyezOpen ,

West Taiwan getting real spicy lately.

"Non-political" means "no lefty stuff" 90% of the time. Don't even gotta look at comment history but I'm gonna anyway to confirm my bias.

Edit: 4 minute diagnosis: they recognize the right is generally insane and don't identify with it while holding positions such as "Israel is defending itself" and "we shouldn't normalize transgenders and should treat dysphoria instead of enabling it," which translated to plain speak means conversion therapy.

SkyezOpen ,

Its easy, all I gotta do is schedule an appointment with my doctor next month so they can refer me to a dermatologist that I can call 3 times before anyone picks up and then schedule an appointment 2 months from then so they can tell me I already died of megacancer.

If they can get better prices elsewhere, they can go elsewhere.

Amazon Mulls $5 to $10 monthly price tag for unprofitable Alexa service, AI revamp ( www.reuters.com )

Amazon (AMZN.O) is planning a major revamp of its decade-old money-losing Alexa service to include a conversational generative AI with two tiers of service and has considered a monthly fee of around $5 to access the superior version, according to people with direct knowledge of the company's plans.

Got a bunch of Google home minis I use for smart lights and music. Do you know if it's possible to jailbreak/degoogle them to use with my own setup?

SkyezOpen ,

Is it much different from Google home? Seems similar from what I could tell from a quick glance.

Oh I see now. That's weird. Can't reproduce it on my end so maybe a federation fuck up?

SkyezOpen ,

Sounds like an Oops with the app then. Check settings, maybe reinstall?

SkyezOpen ,

Gimme a bottle of lube and 20 minutes I'll figure it out.

SkyezOpen ,

they take more from the country and they commit more crime.

Source? My understanding is that immigrants commit less crime per capita because they don't want the law enforcement exposure that could result in deportation.

Squeaky wheel gets the hammer, as they say.

Mix it up. Call it the morning special.

SkyezOpen ,

Friend plays and loves it, but says wait a few months to buy. From what I've seen it's a very strong looking beta, but lots of issues still need ironed out before it's meaningfully playable. I was sold as soon as I heard there was a pve mode because open world constant potential pvp is too much stress, but still giving it a bit before I actually pick it up.

SkyezOpen ,

Isn't that like.... 3 dicks?

SkyezOpen ,

That's genuinely surprising considering the detail and... Size.

Sen. John Fetterman got two speeding tickets before Sunday’s crash, Pa. records show ( www.inquirer.com )

Fetterman (D., Pa.) has received two speeding tickets in his home state — the more recent one of which was in March for exceeding the speed limit in Westmoreland County by 34 mph. Before this year, he was ticketed in April 2016 for going at least 24 mph above the speed limit in Warren County, according to state public records....

SkyezOpen ,

He was super liberal progressive up until he had a stroke and then became super conservative

Also something oddly hilarious about brain damage making him conservative.

SkyezOpen ,

They close concerts with this. It gets wild.

SkyezOpen ,

Oh there's plenty of rules, and if you follow them you'll be wrong because each rule has 20 exceptions you have to memorize because English isn't a language, it's several languages in a trench coat.

SkyezOpen ,

Yes anyone that doesn't throat putin's cock is a liberal, we get it.

SkyezOpen ,

Since when is throating cock only a homosexual act? That's actually kinda bigoted to suggest.

And yes, metaphor can be very difficult to understand. I'll try to speak more literally so you can keep up. Not defending an authoritarian dictator doesn't automatically make someone a liberal.

SkyezOpen ,

Depends if your definition of "hamas" includes Palestinian civilians, which I suspect it might.

SkyezOpen ,

Right. And Israel has the right to actually defend itself. Where the issue happens is that indiscriminate bombing in densely populated areas does not constitute "self defense." Nor does sniping journalists, dropping precision munitions on aid convoys, dropping thousand pound bombs on refugee camps, using white phosphorus anywhere near a city, collective punishment such as cutting access to aid and water for millions of people (actual war crime by the way), or literally anything that's occurred in the west bank.

So when people say they support Palestine, that's what they mean. Not hamas. Don't be disingenuous.

SkyezOpen ,

They've explained themselves so many times and yet you still somehow know better than them what they're protesting for. Amazing.

Would you call me antisemitic for saying Israel's leadership is genocidal?

Lemmy.ml tankie censorship problem

I feel like we need to talk about Lemmy's massive tankie censorship problem. A lot of popular lemmy communities are hosted on lemmy.ml. It's been well known for a while that the admins/mods of that instance have, let's say, rather extremist and onesided political views. In short, they're what's colloquially referred to as...

SkyezOpen ,

The meme originated over a year ago and they're still doing it. Goddamn.

SkyezOpen OP ,

Eyy, seems fixed today after some maintenance yesterday. Thanks dev(s?).

SkyezOpen OP ,

It's hit and miss.
