They are, normally a driver’s license. This doesn’t seem to have much connection to reality. Most places have a policy that if you look under 30 they ask for your ID. Unless the ID looks fake that’s all they do.

For all the people reading the headline and not the article, toilet-maker Toto uses its ceramics expertise to supply products used in silicon wafer production. They’ve been in the industry since the 1980s but with the AI boom non-toilet manufacturing has become over 40% of their operating income.

Most Linux distributions offer a “live CD” experience (does not actually have to be on a CD nowadays; you can use a USB drive). Basically when the computer turns on you tell it to boot off the USB drive instead of the drive in the computer. That way you can try it out on your computer before installing it and see if it works out of the box for you with its defaults. It will probably be a little slower running off a USB drive. I don’t think you can typically install additional programs or save things to the computer (someone more experienced might chime in), but you can try doing basic things like using the web browser or word processor.

But copy is Command+C on macOS and iOS, not Ctrl+C. Maybe in the Classic Mac OS days, but I doubt they would’ve made such a significant change moving to OS X.

I feel like this should go to some of the programming communities also, but I’m not a programmer so I don’t know where

IIRC when it was implemented in the first place, it seemed like lemmy.world had actually been contacted by some stakeholder with a DMCA-style request, even though the community was not actually originating on lemmy.world. Explaining how federation worked to lawyers didn’t matter much and with .world at the time becoming one of the larger and more visible instances that seemed like the best way to avoid the headaches. Initially they defederated with dbzer0 entirely before developing a way to block just the community.

Despite an internal investigation that exonerated McClain, Worden continued to promote the false claims to news outlets and hired a media consultant to amplify them. She also publicly released her former spouse’s personal information.

Huh, I wonder why there were problems in that marriage?

I hate this, +1

I’ve worked a number of jobs in TV, most behind the scenes. I’ve long said most of those jobs people at home wouldn’t know exist unless I make a mistake. That does not mean they were simple jobs.

Many people do not understand the amount of work that goes into other jobs they have never done, nor do they understand what makes someone good at that job.

Alexander Mikushin, a priest at the Pokrovsky Cathedral in the city of Barnaul, said Russians should “ask God” to bring “wisdom” to officials at Roskomnadzor who approved the decision to block the service. Mikushin described Telegram as more than a communication tool, calling it a space “for prayer, heartfelt conversation, and helping one’s neighbor.”

As someone who hasn’t paid a lot of attention to this case other than general curiosity out of how odd it is. I had wondered why the family hadn’t been able to give the police the security footage sooner.

When Nancy Guthrie went missing, officials said she had a doorbell camera, but that it had been forcibly removed, and she did not have a subscription.

I’ve found that to be the case more and more with The Atlantic in recent years: long articles that might sound impressive but don’t actually say much or could’ve said things much more succinctly. I usually don’t read their articles anymore.
