Linux@programming.dev•sudo-rs Affected By Multiple Security Vulnerabilities - Impacting Ubuntu 25.10
343·1 day agoThe Rust hype is funny because it is completely based on the fact that a leading cause of security vulnerabilities for all of these mature and secure projects is memory bugs, which is very true, but it completely fails to see that this is the leading cause because these are really mature projects that have highly skilled developers fixing so much shit.
So you get these new Rust projects that are sometimes made by people that don’t have the same experience as these C/C++ devs, and they are so confident in the memory safety that they forget about the much simpler security issues.
This is just the ADHD maneuver in picture form.

Today I Learned (TIL)@lemmy.ca•TIL why you're not supposed to cook or drink hot tap water - it's the lead (and other heavy metals)
9·1 day agoFor countries without lead issues, it is still a bad idea as hot water tanks can be hosts to a bunch of shit you definitely don’t want to ingest.
Considering the high overlap between Lemmy users and internet savvy people, I would say that we are not a good representation.
This is ironic right? Because literally the word “Effort” is an item in the list. I think this is a woosh
Every comment you make just cements my point further.
I mean if it’s a charity than it is essentially a voluntary position, which is okay. Just bad wording.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What open source project is the most exciting for you right now?
2·4 days agoDoubt that it would be Meshtastic, it is inherently not built for internet levels of bandwidth. But I can see a future where you have intranets that are free and community driven with something like Meshtastic with higher bandwidth and you still pay for an ISP that can give you access to the full internet (because nothing currently can replace underwater optic fiber)
Sure, very convenient for you to find one thing I did wrong and ignore everything else. I’m definitely the one with flawed logic…
I just thought that “gaol” is some hebrew word like idf or kneeset, so I searched with that assumption. Stupid mistake? Sure, does it make me an idiot that can’t have valid opinions? No.
Ignore all the arguments I made and just focus on a single unrelated mistake?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's an artificial limitation you put on yourself that has improved your personal life?
8·5 days agoFor relationships: “Is what i’m about to say/do benifical to me, this person, or the relationship?”
If not, maybe it is me ego or hurt feelings, and so I should ignore it for now and if I feel the need to, I can later analyse it and decide again.
Also, never go hungry or emotional to the grocery store.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I get a lot of ideas in the shower. Do any of you use any kind of waterproof note taking pad and pen so you can catch those ideas before they vanish in the steam?
22·5 days agoShower faster? How long are you in the shower to have time to develop good ideas and have time to forget them?
Thats not a good example because in Nuremberg trials they specifically trialed generals and political leaders, which held positions that were directly related to the crimes, I don’t think generals in the IDF are remotely close to innocent.
But by putting a general who planned and executed war crimes and an office worker that maybe was responsible for office supplies in the same category, you are ignoring the reality of the situation and you are harming the severe and important definition of war crimes.
Your blind categorisation is harming your cause, which I assume is justice and protection of human rights and life.
Schrödingers murder: You are both a murder and not a murder. You are not a murderer as you did not choose to kill a person, but as this can not continue forever you are also a murderer since it is quite certain that eventually someone will choose murder.

Europe@feddit.org•Man digging a swimming pool in his garden in France discovers gold worth $800,000English
12·5 days agoIsn’t that a terrible idea?
When finding huge sums of cash/gold whatever, isn’t it illegal in most places to not report it?
So best case scenario is that you find it and no one else is looking for it and you carefully use it over years as to not raise a falg for your local tax agency or bank.
Worst case scenario is that you found something stolen and eventually the police finds you and you get caught up in a much worse crime?
I did search for it, I guess that I over did the search terms and should have just searched the word itself. Thanks! Word of the day I guess!
Sure, a few months in jail seems like an option, But there are 2 important factors here:
- Wether they are going to be combatants or not
- The fact that these are young adults / teens in a very normalized situation.
If you are 18yo and fresh out of school, understand that the IDF is in the wrong and condemn it but are now facing the choice between doing what society expects of you and going for 2-3 years of office work at the IDF or go against the law, go to jail for an unknown amount of months and possibly face social consequences, you might choose the office work. It does not obsolve you from all faults, but it does not make you genocidal or a rapist.
This approach of grouping everyone together is just adding more fuel to the fire. Everyone sticks their head in the sand and says “This is the problem, there is no nuance!” And guess what? Sometimes you will be more right and sometimes you will be more wrong, but you will very very rarely be correct.
Firstly I couldn’t find anything about “gaol” so I don’t know what you mean…
Secondly, armies are mostly non-combatant soldiers, which can range from working on weapons to office workers. As fucked up as the IDF is, if you are forced to join it and become an office worker, you might not be free of fault, but you are far from committing a genocide or murdering babies.
Gonna get downvoted but fuck this.
The IDF is terrible, the Israeli government is terrible, it is genocidal and there is no excuse for that.
Yet, the IDF is mandatory for all 18yo in Israel, meaning that you could be completely against the IDF and the government, and still be in the IDF.
Imagine being an 18yo who sees the genocide, understands the that Israel is in the wrong, and is now forced to join the army that is in the process of a genocide, and immediately receiving a gun. Fucked up situation that might even lead someone to suicide, especially if maybe you are already in a dark place.
My point is that there are IDF soldiers that are absolutely genocidal, the IDF as an army is horrific, but because of mandatory conscription you can’t treat it the same as a voluntary army where people choose to be there (kinda, poverty and propaganda can often make it more complex)
Just as I wouldn’t celebrate the suicide of a Russian just because of what Russia is doing, I wouldn’t celebrate the suicide of an Israeli just because they were forced to join the IDF.
I think that these mindless celebrations of death jist fuel the cycle of hatred. If you support a genocide I have no compassion for you, but a forced conscription is not a choice.














Thank you, I feel like that is probably true, but I guess I’m hoping that there are other options.
