While you are pedantically correct, I was speaking with the understanding that frivolous lawsuits can be ignored. Like, you could sue a person you've never met for stealing your intellectual property that you don't have with absolutely no evidence or for wearing a blue shirt but no one would reasonably count those as actual suits.

Defamation requires falsehoods based on precedent and case law so a suit that alleges defamation when the person spoke no lies is not a reasonable suit and doesn't really count

Can't sue for defamation if the commentary is either true or had reasonable belief to be so

How happy can they be if not gay? It literally means happy

I tell people they only get two. I'm not encouraging that behavior

Ideally, for jewelry, you'd use the print as a base layer that's then plated or as a positive for a mold. There are some biocompatible resins but you're still making assumptions and compromises with it.

Especially for a ring, any finishing layers will wear off directly on the skin so you'd have to account for that. Highly recommend using the print to make a silicone mold that you can then make an epoxy copy of it. Or a wax copy to then create a metal copy

Multiple steps, I know, but for safe jewelry, printers are better as a starting point tool instead of a finished product generator

Anyone who didn't see that he was very clearly saying how things are back then are the same people who are surprised that Rage against the machine or Green Day were political

Politicians are supposed to be working for the betterment of all, not just the richest few. So..... Yes

Funny enough, this is basic civics that should have been taught in middle school

Considering the intention of the public education system to improve the understanding of the populous has been degraded to the point where basic civics is not taught and we're lucky if graduates are even functionally literate, I'd say that people who understand what our government is supposed to be and what it's supposed to do is fairly small.

And unfortunately, that's the whole fucking point. A uninformed population is an easily manipulated population.

Is it... A form of democracy wherein the populous uses a selection of elected representatives and a framework of a near immutable law set to guide the representatives in governing for the best interest of all citizens?

[–] DokPsy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Well someone has to. The old people certainly can't.

At least you can point to a source of some stress now so ... Progress

After having basic camera setups with simple trackers, I was gifted a seestar s30. Closed in back yard has a small area that isn't covered in trees but has a perfect view of Orion. Going to let it run as long as I dare tonight and pull the fits files to import into siril and do a proper stacking but the apps stacking after only fifteen minutes is already making me excited for what I can pull out of it with an hour+ integration time.

Now if the clouds and fog stay away long enough for me to get quality subs, I'll be a happy night owl

Edit: cloud bank came rolling in shortly afterwards. Will have better seeing the next few nights so hopefully will be able to get a lot more time to help clear up the noise and improve detail. Fifteen minutes is nowhere near enough
