Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you feel like popular media using a game of Chess to depict a "battle of wits" to be too cliche/cringe?

9·1 day agoCan you name another game that everyone else knows and can show the battle of wits?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Hypothetically, if you were a kid and your parents worked for a government intelligence agency, how would you keep secrets / have privacy from your parents?
7·1 day agoYou don’t get access to anything you’re not working with and if you do have access and they found out you used it to spy on your kids then you’re probably getting fired.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you think a socialist President would win the 2028 election? Would they use the exact methods used by Zohran Mamdani which earned him the office of Mayor of NYC?

If looks is 10, personality is 10 and smarts is 1 it’s still a 7 average score which is pretty good.
Just have to look out for dangerous combinations with dumb. A stubborn risk taker for example.
At work I’m paid for it. The software is very much specialised and while probably possible to run under Linux it’s just too much of a headache.
I did install Linux on our SVN server though.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Has Canada's government done anything concrete to reduce dependence on the US since Trump took office? Maybe even since the first term?
11·7 days agoThey were talking about buying Swedish Gripen instead of US F-35. I’m not sure exactly how far along those plans were.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If I engage in anti-government activities and the government harasses my relatives for it, would those relatives be in the right to blame me for them getting harassed?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How many of you actually do sports betting with FanDuel and DraftKings?
4·10 days agoSetting up a website, paying for an admin, bandwidth only to hand money to you makes no sense.
It’s specifically designed to give you the rush of gambling. Dream about winning big, the excitement of doing your analysis deciding who to bet on, you bouncing on your couch when you’re watching, the rush when you get it right.
You would not expect me to build a rollercoaster and then give you money to ride on it?
I’ve used the same pfp which is a photo of myself with a funny mask since 2007.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some unique things that sucks about getting old?

The warmup takes ages, no matter what I’m doing.
It does not sound like something I’d get into. But if I know the Internet then there is an (unfulfilled or I’ve just not heard of) niche market for that too.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•When/how frequently do you replace your phone with a new one?
2·10 days agoWhen the battery does not hold long enough. I don’t care enough to put effort into my phone anyway. I pick between the cheaper models at the local store despite work paying for it.
When we had a couch at the old office I used to have a nap in it during the afternoon coffee break.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If president abductions are something that can apparently just happen how come Putin or Kim Jong Un aren't in some foreign prison right now?
47·10 days agoIt looked easy but It’s ludicrously difficult to do. Russia tried something similar in Ukraine and got bogged down in a war they still have not got out of.
The fact that it worked and did not turn into another black hawk down scenario is like you say months of preparing, someone on the inside high enough to have information and dislike Maduro enough and a good batch of luck.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is there anything of any interests for the tech bros in Greenland?
2·11 days agoEurope would not be able to help much even with greenland under control. The US navy is much stronger and a lot of Europe’s navy is tailored for coastal defense.
The reason why I think he would not invade canada (or greenland) is that NATO would effectively dissolve which would be good for China.

Giving a minority different treatment will cause resentment in the majority. Anything from a scoff because they don’t get told off for telling a mean joke about you to a lifelong maga supporter if you think you did not get a certain job because of affirmative action.
I don’t think anyone is better off in a more polarised society.
