Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Call Management keeps pasting from my clipboard every time I copy somethingEnglish
7·3 years agoDoes a reboot fix the issue? Seems like it’s recognizing something as a phone number which isn’t a phone number. A reboot might reset whatever daemon is causing the issue.

AssholeDesign@lemmy.world•My bank gives me the option to opt out of marketing communications. It takes three clicks to opt out of each category, and there are three pages like this!English
60·3 years agoIf this is the marketing opt-out screen you know damn well they’re selling everything they can about your purchase and banking histories. I would change to a credit union post haste.

Boost for Lemmy@lemmy.world•Remove karma value since it's no longer tracked after 0.19English
91·3 years agoThat’s because your home instance isn’t on v19. World is on v18.5.
You’re missing out. Lower Decks is easily one of the best trek shows if you like trek. Also they do a crossover episode with Strange New Worlds.
This is what i do. Star Trek playlist gets put on when i’ve got nothing else to watch. Random episodes of all trek is my happy place.
Looks just like any other crust-acean.

politics @lemmy.world•House Majority Leader Steve Scalise to undergo stem cell transplant
3·3 years agoThey fire the same rounds but I wouldn’t really consider them a knockoff. SKS was made sort of as an answer to the M1 carbine and other lighter shorter weapons. This was in comparison to the Mosin Nagant which is a big beefy boy and hard to lug around. Also the SKS was designed 4 years before the AK47.
None of the guests suspected that she hadn’t made it from scratch
Bullshit. Did this author ever try a 1980s frozen lasagna? They absolutely could tell, they just didn’t want to offend her.

politics @lemmy.world•House Majority Leader Steve Scalise to undergo stem cell transplant
113·3 years agoI’m all for gun control but the guy who shot Scalise did it with an SKS and a handgun. Neither of those are classified as assault weapons.

122·3 years agoIf inflation has eaten away at your 6 figure salary that hasn’t been updated since 2009 imagine how the plebs making $7.25/hr feel.

News@lemmy.world•‘Lord Of The Wings’ Food Truck Trademark In New Zealand Defeated By Tolkien Estate
892·3 years agoPer comments from Holmes himself, the idea for the name had nothing to do with Tolkien’s works, nor the movie. It was instead to denote royalty and lordship. I have seen nothing in any of the reporting to indicate that this had to do with anything other than the name of the food truck. The truck wasn’t going to be themed after the books or films. There wasn’t going to be any trade dress or vehicle wraps harkening back to those works of fiction. There wasn’t to be a flavor of chicken called “One wing to rule them all.”
So trademark holders being douchebags as usual. The Lord of the Rings isn’t associated with chicken wings in anyway so how could consumers be confused?

World News@lemmy.world•Russia announced it had deployed, to Ukraine, its best new artillery-detecting radar. Hours later, the Ukrainians blew it up—with artillery.English
54·3 years agoThat makes it even worse. Why didn’t they set up at night and throw up some camo netting? There are ways to lessen the chances your radar is blown up is all I’m saying. The ruzzians are morons exhibit #4,832.
Edit:
This was tucked away at the bottom of the article:
It’s possible the Ukrainians knew where to look for the Yastreb-AV because the truck-mounted phased-array radar emitted a distinctive signal—one Ukrainian intelligence may have had on file.
So they probably did radiate at the wrong time and paid for it.

412·3 years agoI was a counter battery radar operator. The systems I used 20 years ago had these neat things called electronic counter measures. I guess russia never got the message that it’s not a smart idea to radiate in a zone with anti-radiation missiles.

News@lemmy.world•Marine Corps veteran convicted of carrying tomahawk inside Capitol on Jan. 6
51·3 years agoThese idiots are lazy so it’s probably just because you’re cutting out ten pounds of ceramic and steel plates to carry. Also plates are bulky and weird if you’re not used to them so wearing a plate carrier without them is just easier and more comfortable.











The whole ad seems to be a ripoff of a Paul Harvey speech.

Harvey’s wikipedia page describes him as a close friend of Joseph McCarthy, Billy Graham, and J. Edgar Hoover.
