Scrolling through, I thought the thumbnail picture was a butt

Whether or not this is true - at least the UK is an island. This isn’t as far fetched as a land locked poor country somehow shipping people 18hrs by plane….

I don’t get why a Central African country would try to send their prisoners halfway around the world - that would be insanely expensive and a logistical nightmare.

I feel like Trump must think the Congo is in South America instead of Africa…

I assure you that’s not the case anymore

When you edit your comment all you’re doing is adding a “new” comment, the old comment is flagged to not show and the new comment shows in its place.

This achieves nothing.

If compiled languages bother you, then you’re gonna love assembly.

I’m know it’s a meme, but a lot of people actually live like this. It’s part of that insanity of fear that people live in. “Except one” implies that it’s inevitable that you’ll be attacked in the night.

It’s just like the psychos who stock up on guns, they’re positive that “it’s only a matter of time”

People are fuckin stupid

Weird…

It’s not and never claimed to be. Lemmy is a piece of software, the instance owners and community moderators choose what stays and what’s goes, every Lemmy instance is just a glorified forum of old internet. Federation means the post isn’t solely controlled by the instance owners, but deletion is federated so the instance deleting it sends notice to every other instance where it exists to delete it as well, and then it’s up to that instance to do it (tho Lemmy will do this automatically so it would require altering the server code to stop that)

I don’t get what they were thinking, how could they write a character letter for a convinced rapist? “Ya but he never raped us!”

That’s actually a human, I’m pretty sure.

This is stupid, why can’t I just point it at my interpreter? Oh, right, money. smh

I always felt like Jim was a dick here. But I agree in this context.

Hardly - he has an SSN. Any job that pays taxes he’ll be garnished. Even if he manages to hide his identity with a fake ssn, his life as it was is ruined. Definitely a form of justice considering he literally was trying to ruin her life through these actions.
