Yes, though you could also do rm -rf /*
afaik to not need --no-preserve-root
Edit: I just realized that the *
is already in the meme. So this should already work as is. Alternatively you could always use the good old way of “act now and remove all French roots of your system: rm -fr / --no-preserve-root
”
I can see dead memes!
Interesting… I got the retail version back then and it was bundled with Steam and did check your account on every start (or required a steam client running with the title in the library). It even had a warning label on the box stating that it needed a steam account and that the CD key would be linked to your account. But I do not remember it using Securom. Which checks out, as I vaguely remember buying I after Christmas.
Maybe it got removed later? I can find some discussions in the steam forums arguing about the drm from about 10 years ago, and other more recent discussion where people are wondering why it has no more drm - e.g. this comment describing the same procedure as I did above
Fun fact: My Steam accounts lists that it was created in July 31st 2004, although Steam was released on September 12th 2004. I guess they just added a random date on old accounts that didn’t have a date registered?
Wait… Half Life 2 is the game that forced me to install steam, create an account and wasn’t playable without it is “now” in this list and is DRM free?
Companies need to get comfortable not owning my money!
It’s the other way round: Education makes for less gullible people and for workers that demand more rights more freely and easily - and then those are coming for their yachts…
In the end it’s about money. If one had to pay for environmentally damages (e.g. a new tax on $energyUnit, $resourceUnit,…) and you’d not only pay for the resources + some markup for the producing company and just external externalize the “worth” of the damages (read: the taxpayer,…), then it’s cheaper to use these services instead of humans.
It’s encrypted anonymous communication capabilities.
Unless you enable it for every single chat (and IIRC only available for chats with only two persons, not group chats) there’s no encryption. Or did they change that? The only encryption that applies to most chats on that platform should be transport encryption via TLS.
The baffled men are meeting now their maker.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
Have you heard of buttplug.io?
@aihorde@lemmy.dbzer0.com draw for me Donald Trump standing on the streets of a big American city. A protest is happening around him. People are throwing socks at Trump. Signs reading “sock him up” in the crowd. Style: photography
Maybe sprinkle a few layers of qemu VMs on top?
I’m somewhat disappointed that the definition of recursion isn’t “Recursion: see recursion”
Its a coin emoji, but its one of those emoji that get rendered wildly different depending on which device (and software version) you’re viewing it on
💩🪙
That must be one of the if not THE most American headline out there!
