Nowhere Else To Share

Some good quick information on what type of thing was used and how to protect yourself. Stay safe out there everyone.

i stumbled on some notes through a search and found this collection of ringtones on its main page 🤷

I feel like I already had an idea why

Another obscure sport I was not familiar with.

I did not know this was a thing.

He is best known for his travels to various parts of the Middle East and Central Asia in the 13th century, including the Mongol Empire. His account of his travels is one of the masterpieces of medieval travel literature, comparable to those of Marco Polo and Ibn Battuta.

A boring video about boring places in GTA 5

I saw a post referencing Lemmy's "obsession with beans" and it made me think of this.

Despite narwhals and bacon becoming something you say sarcastically to make fun of redditors for the past 10+ years, some users here tried to make "beans" the Lemmy equivalent and for a week or two, half the posts here were about beans....then it thankfully stopped.

Since then I've seen a handful of bean references but a significantly larger amount of references to bean references.

Beans were a blip in the Lemmy timeline and i's like gaslit us into thinking Lemmy is actually obsessed with beans. The posts/comments get upvoted but...where are the beans?

Just thought that was kinda funny.

I just realized that conservatives and Ubisoft is a marriage made in capitalism.

Ubisoft TL;DR:

Gamers should get used to not owning games and pay for subscriptions forever.

• You'll own nothing and be happy.

“One of the things we saw is that gamers are used to, a little bit like DVD, having and owning their games. That's the consumer shift that needs to happen. They got comfortable not owning their CD collection or DVD collection. That's a transformation that's been a bit slower to happen [in games]. As gamers grow comfortable in that aspect… you don't lose your progress. If you resume your game at another time, your progress file is still there. That's not been deleted. You don't lose what you've built in the game or your engagement with the game. So it's about feeling comfortable with not owning your game.

Conservatives:

Trust me bro I read the headlines don't look for any other sources but if you do only look at the ones I tell you, vote for me the left is corrupt and woke, I didn't get bribes you're wrong that's just lies from mainstream media, ok these are friendly gifts but they didn't influence me.

• You'll know nothing and be happy.
  • Ignorance is bliss.

From social movements, to political parties, governments, dissidents, and corporations, many groups engage in active efforts to shape media narratives. Media manipulation tactics include: planting and/or amplifying misinformation and disinformation using humans (troll armies, doxxing, and bounties) or digital tools (bots); targeting journalists or public figures for social engineering (psychological manipulation); gaming trending and ranking algorithms, and coordinating action across multiple user accounts to force topics, keywords, or questions into the public conversation. Because the internet is a tool, a tactic, and a territory – integral to challenging the relations of power.

This whole showerthought post came to me after I shower decompressed the unpleasant experience of one of my friends accidentally inviting over a conspiracy theorist for new years, again I will state that they didn't know until yesterday. I don't even remember what cursed line of conversation that led our nerdy group to have a lenghty and arduous discussion on war, education, and economics.

TL;DR:
Please only invite guests that you've known for at least a year.

CEO Shooter Used a 3D Printed Gun. Let's Talk About It.

A good, non-inflammatory, video about the 3D printed gun used, speculation on how the suppressor was affixed. I found it quite informative and interesting.

The speaker tries to be as non-political as possible, in this video. It's just a discussion about this 3d printed firearm
