Developing Linux is so punk rock 🤘
Well he did say it wasn’t a good website. You really think they’re just going to take the criticism?
This entire thread is just memes instead of discussion. This feels like peak reddit shittery.
Only because he had no windows
Really hope they find the caller and bring him to court. I mean both streamer and police are the victims here.
At least it hasn’t been a actual SEK unit (SWAT in Germany) they look more like normal patrol officers. But nevertheless it’s unacceptable.
Germany does try and track these people down and throws them in jail: https://www.vice.com/de/article/erstes-deutsches-swatting-hohe-freiheitsstrafe-fuer-drachenlord-hater/
Swatting in Europe isn’t really virulent as police agencies have safeguards against false calls. There was a case of high-profile swatting in the UK, cops softly banged the door and didn’t brandish the guns so fast unlike in America.
Dude’s gotta feed the monkey. You could donate some money to him on patreon then he wouldn’t need to have an amazon affiliate link.
if you pay for a thing it’s pretty hard to avoid giving a cut to amazon these days.
Wtf. Anyone have the back story on this?
Allegedly, someone (likely a hater of this dev) reported that this dev was going to kill his partner then himself. Armed police turned up.
But still, why would someone swat over something like this? Seems insane
Because he streamed. Streaming turns to swatting nearly every time if you don’t protect your location information.
Wow that’s crazy. Hope they find the guy.
rust Vs c drama getting out of hand
Some people take tabs vs spaces too seriously.
please just use spaces, it makes everything easier
same width for all setups
I use tabs for indentation then spaces after that if I need to offset a line by a specific amount of chars, such as a multi-line output or something.
Edit: to be specific: https://pastebin.com/un6iUmEp . Notice how line 3 has one tab, then several spaces before the first non-whitespace character.
I like to use asterisk spacing.
void main() { /****/for (int i=0; i <10; ++I) { /********/printf("hello world\n"); /********/printf("%d\n", i); /****/} }Respect. Only through destruction can we be purified.
That makes it worse imo
So I have to use the same width as you? What if I want 3 spaces for a tab?
If your front door gets kicked in, this is why.
That’s right kids. To avoid this situation be sure to use tabs for indentation.
The only indentation method that the viewer has control on how big they want it.
Isn’t it amazing how you can “SWAT” (from the looks of it that weren’t special forces btw.) someone by knocking on the door, instead of blasting through it and charging in, ready to shoot anything that moves?
That’s something you can do if you don’t have to be afraid of shotguns and full-auto rifles when going into random people’s houses.
Ah yes the solution is more guns
It works for me
Probably helps add a certain gravitas.
Guns aren’t the only thing that can cause bodily harm.
Because they worry about any other weapon? Or the extremely rare case that someone actually has a highly dangerous fire arm? My point is that they can have much less drastic standard procedures (and equipment), because the standard scenario of operation is significantly less threatening.
There are special forces that get involved with the real shit. But the bar for real shit here is someone has any gun.
It’s just the sad state of reality. People get hurt when cops don’t act on this. Unfortunately many police are poorly trained and filtered out, so this does lead to many instances where people do get hurt because of them responding. Police officers need to be more strictly trained and monitored when dealing with situations like these, and the transparency of stuff like this is shockingly little.
Its not incompetence. Its by design. The more SWAT goes out, the more they’re justified. SWAT teams exist to increase the spending of police. Those expenditures go to military contractors.
Its the same reason the US is ceaselessly involved in war since WW2. For money.
Y’all ain’t wrong, but I’m more curious about Germany. Is it much of a thing there? I tried googling and only found this incident.
Germany has their own military industrial complex. See Ukraine. But nobdy in the world is anywhere near as crazy as y’alls
This isn’t SWAT. Or SEK, since this is Germany.
It’s just the usual armed police.
The US sells weapons globally. And they’ve overthrown whole governments that didn’t fall in line with their military and economic goals.
As others mentioned, this isn’t America. Also, fraudulent calls to emergency services is a criminal offense, people who do this are usually charged and fined, or even given jail time. It’s not like it’s accepted or mainstream behavior, people just do stupid things and when combined with stupid cops it has led to tragic outcomes. In this video they seem to show up, which they HAVE to do, place the occupant in precautionary detainment, verify there is no crime underway, and release him. They would probably then take a statement, then the next thing would be to get a warrant for the call records and charge the dipshit that started the incident.
Did you even try to watch the clip? It’s not even in the US! This is the scary part.
This is always felt really weird to me in general because on one hand you do have a lot of over aggressive police officers in the States but on the other hand you also have a lot of police officers who are like been through the drill and are just calm as fuck about it.
I feel like the immediate pucker factor would be nine times higher if you’re in the States, but then it either goes to shit real fast or settles down real fast.
Microsoft CodeCop does not mess about but in fairness he was using identical names for local and global variables.
I guess Microsoft is stepping up their campaign against OSS.
/s I know it’s a bad joke. MS contributes a lot to OSS. It would have worked better in the Ballmer era.
Buy 'em out, boys!
You don’t think I got this rich by writing checks, do you?
