All true, just want to add to it.

You can bring the mace anyway, just in case, as long as you don’t mind carrying it. One other major benefit is that the things could be dirt cheap because you don’t need good quality metal.

But if you want to hit people, and have a money and time for training, go for an axe. Pretty much all the advantages of a mace, but can cut on top (and usually poke too).

The other part of the equation is not getting killed, and usually the guys in heavy armor are good at killing you. Getting in striking range for a medium range weapon like a mace/axe/sword is damn dangerous, so a slower weapon like a mace or axe that’s additionally bad at defending because of a more distant point of balance means a much increased risk to your life. So if it’s one on one, you should really think twice about trying to getting that lucky strike in.

Not the top right though.

Strictly speaking, information technology encompasses software dev as a subfield. Practically, a large software development at a company has very different needs and strategic goals than what people usually understand as the “IT guys” so what you mentioned. So they are set up accordingly in an organisation.

As I understand it, he was fined exactly the amount he earned over 3 years of a job where he was using a VPN.

The smell lingers rather well. It doesn’t need to be refreshed that often.

The majority of playgrounds in Germany have rules restricting them to children (usually below 14 years of age). Violations can be punished with a fine.

Keep in mind that this will hide all of your own posts from you, including in your account view outside the saved posts view.

There’s currently a meeting in Germany with about 4000 of them.

But it’s not the prevailing mindset in the general population.

The blokes are obviously at different heights, that’s all.

It’s a male phone.

Phones have a biased sex ratio, so chances are you mostly saw female phones until now.

The imminent threat of an invasion (assembled in staging area and ready to go) could have been tried before. It would have been very costly, but would have been necessary anyway for an actual invasion if the nuclear bombs didn’t cause a surrender (there was a coup attempt to prevent it, so it was never a sure thing even with the bombs).

I would experience negative emotions about Lemmy/k in if I found a reddit thread describing my problem and the lauded solution was changed to say the user moved there. It would not make me want to switch.

The police officers committed these acts while they were still in training as part of their dual bachelor’s degree.

Yet this is better than the alternative, it’s easier to get rid of them at the earlier stage.

Yes, Gog, thankfully there’s a lot of hints on the internet recommending the full unofficial patch. And it’s great to see how there’s still updates coming in every few months.

I just wanted to express I’m very thankful for this comment.

It caused me to buy and play Bloodlines and it’s been fantastic.

If companies go pick the most professional applicant by their photo that is a reason for concern, but it has little to do with the image training data of AI.

Hopefully someone or some group didn’t kidnap her to force her to work as a nurse for them.

That does sound like one of the better scenarios to me.

Old people can just be considered represented by their adult children then.

I do think you have a point here, but I don’t agree with the example. If a fan creates the 1001 fan painting after looking at others, that might be quite similar if they miss the artistic quality to express their unique views. And it also competes with their source, yet it’s generally accepted.

The memorization is closer to that of a fanatic fan of the author. It usually knows the beginning of the book and the more well known passages, but not entire longer works.

By now, ChatGPT is trying to refuse to output copyrighted materials know even where it could, and though it can be tricked, they appear to have implemented a hard filter for some more well known passages, which stops generation a few words in.
