Nope It’s all car lobbies, corrupt politicians, people doing everything possible to get rid of trains for people, get rid of bicycles in cities, everything needs to be designed for cars first, then whatever, turning every US (And Canadian and Mexican) city in a car park. Hell, jaywalking as a concept was invented by car manufacturers because cars were killing so many people. Instead of doing something about the cars, we now just blame it on this invention from cars manufacturers. Anything to push cars Take a look at the Netherlands. It’s been working on less car for decades. It’s enormously densely populated and we simply don’t have the space for ginormous car parks and clogged road arteries. Back in the 1960’s they stopped the carification of cities and pushed for bicycle use and public transportation. Cars can get to most places still, but everything is principally designed for pedestrians, then cyclists, then cars. Most city centers block even bicycles, allowing people to walk only The result? Moving about in the Netherlands is super easy, and the cities are amazing and safe. There are bicycle freeways, the cities are much quieter, the air is cleaner. Other European cities finally followed suit in the past decade, with great results Canada is trying a little bit of this in Vancouver, with mixed results because a lot of the designs they’re trying are designs everyone knew were bad and dangerous since back in the 1980s, but good on them for at least trying. I know, you were talking about trains, and keep talking about bicycles, but it’s relevant. The two go together and should be implemented together. Short distance, < 1 kilometers, people can and should walk. < 10 kilometers, bicycles. More than that, you use trains in between cities and busses for the less urban routes and inside the cities. This is how it should be. People cycling are healthier. It generates less CO2, it pollutes less. Similarly, trains are way WAY more energy efficient and way less polluting than all those cars. It’s just the politicians who keep being paid and lobbied to make sure car manufacturers can fill their pockets. Electric cars won’t change most of this, they only sort of solve the CO2 problem

So is there a true open source chat program that requires no account (so full anonymity) and has good encryption for privacy?

Because peeing spreads around microscopic pee particles that go many places. Same for flushing after pooping squirts poop particles around. IIRC, that luteral crap can spread around 2 meters of a toilet

Any language learned as an adult will be extremely difficult to speak well, to the point of sounding native

What's up with the AI slop image for this post? Also, Mozilla is destroying Firefox by themselves, they don't need help from m$

I know, it was part mildly sarcastic and part mildly "I'm so happy I am not a psychopath because I would be so unhappy"

I'm guessing that Megyn's handlers told her to push back against trump today What job she has, must suck to make yourself so hated for money

You mean the world

That dog is so dead by now

Why it’s illegal and potentially criminal

LinkedIn scans your browser for installed extensions every time you visit the site. It does this without asking, without telling you, and without any mention in its privacy policy.

Cool! Send the fucking CEO to jail. Send a fucking message. If I break the law, I go to jail, can we PLEASE give them the same treatment already?

And they send me over 2.5mb of javascript code for this shit?

Why oh why is the internet such a shit place these days?

Greedy fucking C suite execs. That’s why

Okay, so is there a browser plugin that can hide the plugins that I have installed?

LLM-generated passwords

This is akin to asking Karen from accounting to generate a password for you, and trusting that it will be a true random and secure password and that she won’t yap about it to everyone.

That statement is one of the painfully dumbest things I’ve read in my life, and I’ve read the bible.

Been using Linux on desktop since 2002/3 and since 2005 it's been Kubuntu, mint with KDE, or KDE neon, now back to Kubuntu again because it just works

That is awesome news BUT The real reason is humanity being a bunch of irresponsible greedy fuckwads, and I fear that this will be used not in the “let’s be less greedy, let’s fix the problems and let’s use this to help the bees” but more as a “woohoo, bee factory farming!” and “W00T, this means we can fuck over bees even more, let’s go!” Can we please stop it with the greed?

Yes, actually, i dont, you don’t, but “we” forget shit like this all day,.every day, all the fucking Time Once this shit is over, most people will not have a single fucking clue what any of these fucking evil companies did. Hell, even now, Facebook/ Instagram’s meta is fucking the world, and most of their users are clueless while it’s going on

Pro choice is about choice Pro life isn’t about life as they’ve never cared about any of that shit. That baby is born? Toss it in a dumpster as far as they care. Pro life is about control and power, I’m willing to.doe on that hill a hundred times

I’ve listened to the same lineup of songs for weeks Now I’ve heard one of these songs for about two weeks straight in my head. 24/7. I hear it in my dreams. It’s a pretty song, but fuuuuuuuuuuccccckkkkkkkkk I want it out

Source on that? Not that I don’t believe you but that is something I’d like to see

I’m seriously wondering this about have you aneurysm writer

I don’t see this as left or right wing This is architecture that could be done better. Yes, we need to stop homelessness, but you also want to avoid creating spaces where nobody wants to live because it’s ugly and depressing and guaranteed, the poor end up having to live there, and with that comes crime and what not and you end up with ghetto style areas where even police is uneasy Take a little bit more space, put a little bit more thought into the designs, add spaces for children to play, add parks, make it look nice. Wr don’t need luxury villas either, but there has to be something better than this

I've seen a lot of those studies, lately

I’m sorry, so for the past 4 years we only had “ugly” women in ads? Does this idiot understand how marketing even works? Yeah, we had more plus sized models, because for one, they are a target market for advertisement because, and I know this sounds crazy, plus sized women also need clothes and gasp humans like to see “people like them” in ads and people like “pretty people like them” even better. None of this is new and this is just more Maga brain rot Man, i do wonder how general intelligence.in the US compares to Canada or Mexico, or Europe. It can’t be good.

I’ve seen this particular revolutionary technology come by about once a year for the past two decades or so, so let’s say I’m not holding my breath and I will toss this one on the large pile of “bullshit tech articles”

Nor ever will

Ding ding Nothing has to do with quality anymore, it’s all about money for the few rich people

Wasn’t LG one of the last good ones left?

Can we do away with trillion dollar companies already,. please? They’re not doing anything good for anyone, it always ends with some CEO’s and shareholders enriching themselves over the backs of others No company should ba r a worth of more than a billion dollars No single person should have a net worth of over 10 million

while maintaining transparency and user value Yeah, that you’ll lose.

It’s the only way to cheat ad blockers Plus, if you don’t give a shit about your userbase and or long term goals, then who cares, right?

That’s it, were only going to use comic Sans serif from now on!

If they already have the info, the n why ask?

US doesn’t understand why nobody wants to visit their shit hole Country anymore

Full on 20

So what is that number really?

I feel like Jenny is the kind of person where if anyone would ever decide to string her up from a tree that loads of people would come to watch and nobody would cut her down. Everybody would just watch and feel a weight lifted from their shoulders

the company owners aremulti million dollar assholes, that’s why we behave like this Stop the multi millionaires Nobody should be worth anything over 10 million. Anything after that should go 100% to taxes. With that, governments can actually give out free healthcare, free education, universal basic income and all on a high quality because it will have the funding now that we finally stopped a few from hogging all the world’s resources

It’s the headline rewritten for reality

How I discovered a microphone by reading the he documentation on GitHub?

Likely because the manufacturer used of off the shelf hardware that just happened to have GPS built in? That’s just how these things go, it’s easier to just use pre designed hardware for what you need, even if it has functionalities you won’t use. Hell, I’d argue that the vast majority of computer hardware out there isn’t using half of the features that it has. Just because features are there doesn’t mean they’re used, and definitely doesn’t automatically mean that there are evil or nefarious intentions with its design
