  • Sometimes, it's a trolley problem where you don't have to pull any lever, and one horrible person's death saves many innocent ones.

  • You need a perfect transfer of the kinetic energy to the chicken for that to hold, not a slap

  • Lack of safety regulations that allowed people to be slowly poisoned by cheap materials or die in freak accidents, siphoning resources from the rest of the world through soft and hard political power, and not being destroyed from WW2 while Europe was recovering

  • Iran has been infinitely more reasonable on foreign diplomacy than the US in the past 25 years. If the US gets them, Iran gets them too.

  • but it took developers forever to update and stop constantly writing to sensitive OS locations.

    They still haven't done that in 2025, Windows file locations are by far the worst part of it as an operation system for an average user?

    Is it in C:/Users/

    <username>

    /? How about in the Documents folder? No, AppData/Local maybe? AppData/LocalLow or AppData/Roaming?

    Maybe it created a root folder on my hard drive, Intel and NVIDIA love to do that? Did it just dump data in my registry (thanks Adobe)? Maybe it's in the installation location in Program Files, or with the 32-bit updater app in Program Files (x86)?

    Who the fuck even knows anymore at this point, just write directly into System32 for all I care

  • Even if we stop climate change, we are going to die from PFAS, microplastics in our brain, heavy metal pollution and many other problems before we can leave earth

  • Too bad we can't all act like this

  • That's bullshit, in the NL we are taught the first responsibility of every driver is to get the best outcome for the entire situation, not just blindly follow laws/rules. You're supposed to help the merging by shifting at least 1 lane to the left if it's busy, or by slowing down or speeding up to make space.

  • Benefit of the hindsight

  • It's a solution in search of a problem. Currencies are government backed because the vast majority of people have faith in their governments' enforcement of legislation regarding use of that currency. It's good to be able to make class action lawsuits against scammers and most in the population will choose anything government backed if they have the option.

    So if the goal is to get away from government backing, who do you give control to? In the case of a blockchain, it's the parties with the majority of the "proof of XYZ" creation hardware. Which are not normal people. Then there's the possibility of developers of a blockchain choosing to rewrite the ledger, causing splits. So you didn't invent some unmodifiable currency either, the control lies with people who you probably should trust even less than the parties managing EUR/USD.

    Then, it's incredibly energy inefficient. Especially proof of work is a ridiculous waste of computational resources, at least tie the problem to something NP-hard with actual value instead of whatever reverse hashing search is usually done. But wasting resources is the design of the system anyways.

  • Landlord Raises Rent to Cover the Cost of Never Doing Anything

    Jump

  • I think people renting to a handful of people are doing a service for those who need temporary housing.

    I also think anyone who rents to more than 30 tenants should be forced to sell some of their properties.

    Idk where you fall on that scale.
