Yeah, it wasn't even the electoral college fucking us. He straight up won, by a significant amount too.

The thing with (full) self-driving is that the edge cases are the challenge. Driving is the Pareto Principle really cranked up: (fully made up numbers) 2% of the driving represents 90% of the difficulty. And highway driving is a much simpler task to be automated than driving on a stroad, weird intersections, unprotected turns, etc.

I think we are a long ways off from full self-driving, and highway driving capabilities of current vehicles only address what is by far the easiest scenario. And even there those capabilities are limited from what I've seen.

Underrated benefit of Lemmy is that it isn't infested with bots the way its larger counterpart is. Reddit has really turned to garbage.

I call it "defensive" voting. Not voting for actual progress, just voting to prevent further deterioration.

I put practicality over ideology, and in accordance with this have already voted for Harris. But I can still express my disappointment.

Archie Bunker says: "Would it make you feel any better, little girl, if they was pushed out of windows?"

That may be true, but bloodthirsty lunatics without the numbers to back them up lose much of their effectiveness.

So a repression?

My point is that if they were serious about protecting the environment, they would promote WFH (for those who can...not everyone can obviously) in addition to EVs. Instead, there seems to be a big push for return to office.

Yeah, I don't think you can really apply eugenics to yourself. It's more something that one exerts on others.

There's the dictionary definition and the "how it plays out in the real world" definition. It isn't defined as a system pushing for constant growth, but due to its competitive winner-take-all nature it becomes a matter of grow or die.
