This looks like it was made to justify those insane text editors with “GPU acceleration” as if text editing requires interop with Vulkan.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some funny WiFi network names you've run into?English
4·2 days agoI find it funny that they thought to copy “Hi-Fi” when fidelity isn’t really how 802.11 works since it has an entire digital layer, though now I kinda of miss that they dropped it lol.

21·2 days agoBuddy had one of those barely FCC compliant wifi “debugger” boards, so for a while we actually had an entire armada of FBI surveillance vehicles, vans, and a helicopter on every 2.4ghz channel lol.
I dont know if fake SSID advertisements really impede actual stations, but it was pretty funny seeing 15 SSIDs coming from a single, almost thumbstick size board.

Linux@programming.dev•Thinking about switching from fish to bash + extensionsEnglish
91·2 days agozsh was and I think still is technically an extended superset of bash.
It’s pretty much exactly what you’re looking for if you want bash scripting with fish features and plugin extensibility.
The downside is you gotta take some time to set up your .zhrc and choose if you want to use a backend like oh-my-zsh.
I think the reason its on MIT license was because it was essentially just a bunch of scripts bundled together and maintained by a wide variety of people with no intention of making it the default shell like fish or bash is.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Whats the worst book anyone has ever recommended you?English
1·5 days agoI mean its literally right at the beginning in Surah 2:75 and 2:79, which is why I remember:
Do you covet [the hope, O believers], that they would believe for you while a party of them used to hear the words of Allāh and then distort it [i.e., the Torah] after they had understood it while they were knowing?
So woe to those who write the scripture with their own hands, then say, This is from Allāh, in order to exchange it for a small price. Woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn.
- So the words of allah, such as the Gospel cannot be corrupted. So if the Gospel was corrupted, Islam is false. If the Gospel wasn’t corrupted then it doesn’t “confirm” the Qur’an at all, so Islam is false. This is the Islamic Dilemma.
Is such a weird argument that makes no sense from what you just provided. AFAIK the quote you gave is talking about “words of Allah”, which indicates his power and decree, ie everything that happens is because of him, and it will happen. Nowhere does it imply that his revelation cannot be altered by humans.
I would talk about the Qur’an also explicitly stating about its superceded position, but you quoted your first quote wrong:
Surah 4:57 is:
But those who believe and do righteous deeds - We will admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide forever. For them therein are purified spouses, and We will admit them to deepening shade.
So I’m not really sure which quote you meant to use.
As for the 7 versions, those were specific subdialects on how the pronunciation slightly changed that you can still find today but no one uses since they decided to standardize on one when writing it during the first caliphate iirc.

News@lemmy.world•Man Charged for Wiping Phone Before CBP Could Search ItEnglish
1·5 days agoAh no it relies on either the battery drain method or another exploit that gives you a much higher rate without tripping the device.
I haven’t kept up with the CVEs for this, and I’m sure both Apple and Android have patched several, but for a while police forensics have had access to an AIO cracker tool made by a company that afaik never disclosed these CVEs for the sole purpose of keeping a method of PIN bruteforcing viable.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Whats the worst book anyone has ever recommended you?English
7·5 days agoThe problem is I can actually name quite a few books I regret reading, but none of those were recommendations lol.
Most recommendations I’ve gotten are average, maybe a handful of mediocre, but nothing like “why did I waste my life on this?”
Regardless, here is a book (series) I think had to be a prank written as a joke submission that somehow got approved and somehow made enough money to make a complete series: https://www.scholastic.com/andygriffiths/chapter_butt_wars.htm
Seriously I want you to read the Scholastic excerpt and tell me with a straight face the writing wasn’t a bet to see if the publisher would pass anything if you slapped a fasade of a poop joke title onto a book.
I cannot emphasize this enough. This doesn’t read like a children’s humor book, it’s literally just a drunken action packed story that the author did a word substitute to see how far this could go lmao.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Whats the worst book anyone has ever recommended you?English
21·5 days agoUh, I’m pretty sure the Qur’an is pretty explicit in naming the Bible and Torah as corrupted text that was modified with intent to change the meaning and resultant laws.
I mean its entire basis is that it has remained unchanged ever since it was revealed, hence there are no versions/revisions like the Bible.
I don’t know why people are freaking out over this article. It’s pretty well known that lots of animals (especially within their own class) have eggs that can be fertilized by different species. It doesn’t matter like 99.99% of the time because the resulting cell is unviable and will not develop into anything because the merged DNA is incompatible and will fail to generate into a developed organism.
The exception to this are hybrids (like a mule), rare cases where similar enough species can actually create a viable fetus, but the resultant hybrid is usually sterile and unable to reproduce its own offspring: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_(biology)

News@lemmy.world•Man Charged for Wiping Phone Before CBP Could Search ItEnglish
153·6 days ago*presuming you have a strong password set
They can and still will run it through a password cracker with a dictionary provided the phone has some method of either exposing the password hash or can be bruteforced on device similar to PIN bruteforcing.
You can refuse a search
Which can lead to an up to 24 hour detainment which CBP has been allegedly doing, so do know the consequences.
If you plan on building a proper pirate ship, a good place to start is https://trash-guides.info/.

1·7 days agoI thought it was funny how it was some magical conglomerate of Iran and Russia, and how the plot literally included the exact nuclear refinery target that was bombed earlier this year.
Ignoring all the insane air fight stupidity, the only thing I could think about during the whole movie was the WKUK Nerf Nuke spoof.










Reminds me of this:
