klu9@piefed.socialto THE POLICE PROBLEM@lemmy.world•Youth baseball coach intercepts ICE agents approaching kids: 'I'm willing to die'English50·7 days agoRemember when strangers approaching children and initiating inappropriate conversations with them would be the ones getting arrested, not doing the arrests?
Pepperidge Farm would remember but half its workforce was snatched up and the rest are in hiding.

klu9@piefed.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was the last image you saved from the internet?English2·15 days agoIs that Jumpin’ Jack Flash? I don’t think I have thought about that movie in over 3 decades.
klu9@piefed.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was the last image you saved from the internet?English1·15 days agoThat. Is. Bonkers.

klu9@piefed.socialto THE POLICE PROBLEM@lemmy.world•ICE 'morale in crapper' as agents forced to 'arrest gardeners'English7·15 days ago“Bullshit street rips to bump the COMPSTAT numbers.”
Why yes, I am in the middle of a Wire rewatch. Why do you ask?
klu9@piefed.socialto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•IPTV FOSS Android AppEnglish2·1 month agoI’m also interested. Every now and then, I try to find one.
The last time I think it was Fasto TV Lite from this list:
But IIRC it just would not go full screen (you need to buy the full version for that I think) and I soon uninstalled it.
And the last time I tried IPTVnator on Android, it couldn’t handle a large playlist, like IPTV-org.
ATM I’m using a proprietary app, Televizo, or the website https://tv.garden/ .
klu9@piefed.socialto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I'm the creator of Seedit and I'm here to share how it works and clear up some Concerns/FUDSEnglish3·1 month agoI do like the idea of a P2P system. I used to be on ZeroNet but there were just too few people and too little content to stick with it. I hope something like this takes off.

klu9@piefed.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Threads is adding fediverse content to your social feedsEnglish6·1 month agoBasically, yes. EEE is a strategy developed by a dominant company whose revenue stream came from paid proprietary software and services but which embraced open standards with the goal of vanquishing the threat to their business model posed by that openness and maintaining/recovering their proprietary domination.
Does ActivityPub being open and used by many different projects & organizations pose a threat to Piefed’s business model? Is Piefed a powerful company that built that power on a proprietary model and seeks to preserve that power by embracing, extending, and extinguishing ActivityPub? With the goal of maintaining/recovering proprietary domination?
No. So it ain’t EEE.
klu9@piefed.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there a song in a foreign language you like the melody to but didnt know the lyrics?English3·1 month ago中西 圭三 - Woman
Nakanishi Keizō - Woman
(Japanese; my Japanese only good enough to catch a few snippets)
One I came to love because the guy in the room next to me when I lived in Japan kept playing it over and over until I did. Also featured in my first (and last!) attempt at doing karaoke in front of Japanese people.

Vremya i Steklo - Troll
(Russian)
The Ukrainian crunk equivalent of “No Scrubs”? (IIRC read an article explaining how the song is about terrible men hitting on her)

Anders Nelsson - Ghost Bride Song
(Cantonese)
From the soundtrack of 殭屍先生 (Mr Vampire, 1985), Hong Kong horror-comedy about the hopping dead.

A konpa track I think sampled by Wyclef Jean. https://youtu.be/McUmXoB_9yw
klu9@piefed.socialto Linux@lemmy.ml•What is your most useful Linux app which others might not know about (please don't just give the name but a link and why it is good for you) ?English31·1 month agoKDE Connect
I’ve used it a lot just to control audio or video playing on my computer from my phone. (Sometimes when I’m sat at my computer with multiple windows and workspaces open, I even find it easier just to hit my phone’s lockscreen to pause the music.)
I’m starting to use some of its other features, too. E.g. copying & pasting and sharing files between phone and computer.
There’s more too I need to explore.
(Unfortunately, sometimes I get a ‘device unreachable’ error when both devices clearly have a working connection to the same router.)

klu9@piefed.socialto politics @lemmy.world•2 Minnesota lawmakers shot in 'targeted' incident: OfficialsEnglish73·1 month agoBoth from the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party.
klu9@piefed.socialto Linux@programming.dev•Digitization Minister to Phase Out Microsoft in MinistryEnglish1·2 months agoGood points.
A few years ago, the UK Justice Minister called for a ban on the sale of tiny, lipstick-sized mobile phones that came with a voice-changing function built in. (Article) They were being smuggled into prisons and the convicts were using them to commit crimes from the inside, including making intimidating phone calls to witnesses etc.
What a sad day that would be for legitimate rectally-insertable, voice-changing cellphone enthusiasts!
