Onko mahdollista? Tuntuu, että lemmy.world instanssin lankoihin kirjoitetut kommentit ei aiheuta mitään aktiivisuutta. Ei kommentteja, ylä- tai alaääniä. Lisäksi lähes kaikki vastaukset tulee muiden instanssien käyttäjiltä.

EDIT: Ei mitään sittenkään. Se olikin ihan tavallinen banni. Kuvittelin, että niistä tulisi ilmoitus.

I mean, you aren't trying to survive for the sake of survival itself, right?

What do you do for recreation? To decompress or just to get your mind off the everyday struggle? Board games? Perhaps you've figured out a way to watch movies or listen to music? Is getting drunk or high too much of a risk?

Mind linking the study you're refering here?

Majority of pedofiles never offend and most of the people in jail for child abuse are plain old rapists with no particular interest in kids per se, they're just an easy target.

This is the same old "violent games makes people violent" -argument all over again.

You're not piloting a bone mech, you are it.

It feels like you're behind your face looking out into the world but once you pay close attention and look for what's looking you'll discover there's nothing there. There's no "you" in a sense that there's someone behind the wheel. There's just consciousness. It feels like something to be. A subjective experience.

Statistically they're still less prone to accidents than human drivers.

I never quite undestood why so many people seem to be against autonomous vehicles. Especially on Lemmy. It's unreasonable to demand perfection before any of these is used on the public roads. In my view the bar to reach is human level driving and after that it seems quite obvious that from safety's point of view it's the better choice.

Saako täällä mitenkään ladattua koko viestihistoriaa teksitiedostona mieluiten siten, että siinä olisi pelkästään viestit ilman mitään timestamppeja etc.

Voiko tuollaisen perus 5€ vuorokausiajastimen pistää lämminvesivaraajan töpseliin, että voisi vähän enempi hyötyä halvemmasta yösähköstä? 2KW näyttäisi olevan varaajassa tehoa ja Opalin ajastin tuotetietojen mukaan kestää 3.5KW. Kyseessä on siis aivan tuollainen töpseli seinään varaaja missä ei ole kuin lämpötilansäätönuppi.

Mitenköhän pitkään tuollaisen 100 litran varaajan ylipäätään edes tarvitsee olla päällä vuorokaudessa? Kahden hengen käytössä ei ole vielä ainakaan koskaan loppunut kesken.

Jostain tässä on pakko koittaa säästää kun tuntuu inflaatio kumoavan kaikki jo käytetyt konstit..

AI DRIVR made an interesting analysis about the v12 on YouTube. Apparently it's completely different from the previous versions and instead of understanding traffic rules it learns from a videos of people driving which means it does things like doesn't fully stop at stop signs and drives over the speedlimit - like people do too.

It's interesting because by strictly following traffic rules you might infact be a danger to others but by driving like humans you're also breaking the law. Good example of a situation where the "right" thing to do might not be the most intuitive one though in this case it's still up for a debate.

To be fair I still do these things but only when I'm alone.

Personally I love finding big puddles and then dig drains with a stick or my heel and watch the water flow.

Also love to throw a piece of wood into water and then toss stones high up in the air and try hit it imagining it's a warship I'm trying to bomb.

Then also without going into details there are some pieces of clothing I would like to wear but don't because they're considered femine or gay.

As a compliment to the thread about near death experiences I'd really like hearing people's experiences of losing consciousness under general anesthesia and what's it like coming back.

Also interested of things anesthetists may have noticed about this during their career.

I'm not sure if this works anymore but I saved this message a while back. If you get this pop-up then put this into your adblock custom rules and it should sort it out:

youtube.com##+js(set, yt.config_.openPopupConfig.supportedPopups.adBlockMessageViewModel, false)

youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.adBlocksFound, 0)

youtube.com##+js(set, ytplayer.config.args.raw_player_response.adPlacements, [])

youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.hasAllowedInstreamAd, true)

I think that living in a constant fear or being attacked is something many people don't think about. As someone who regularly spends time alone in the woods at night I know how your minds start playing tricks on you and it can get quite intense and scary even though you know it's just animals out there. Just imagine trying to sleep in a abandoned house and then hearing a zombie walk outside. Even if you made sure that location is as safe as it can be that's still going to be terrifying as hell.

We don't need more pronouns. We need less of them.

In my native language there is no even he/she pronouns. The word is “hän” and it’s gender neutral. You can be male, female, FTM, MTF, non-binary or what ever and you’re still called “hän”. You can identify as anything you like and "hän" already includes you.

I use these alteast 3 times a week while mountain biking. Fits my foot like a glove and still holds water. Hands down the best shoes I've ever had.

One thing to note though is that these are not for winter use. The rubber gets hard in cold weather and has zero grip on ice and I truly mean zero. Ask me how I know lol

I guess I'll go first:

  • I stayed home for the first few weeks and waited out the worst chaos
  • I was prepaired enough that I could stay at home
  • I own a 4x4 truck and had several spare canisters of fuel which enabled me to bug out eventually with all my gear and no need to stop looking for fuel
  • I stayed away from malls, supermarkets, gas stations and other hotspots
  • Every time I encountered a zombie I ran away instead of fighting it

Lets assume we develop the capacity to create virtual worlds that are near indistinguishable from the real world. We hook you up into a machine and you now find yourself in what effectively is a paraller reality where you get to be the king of your own universe (if you so desire). Nothing is off limits - everything you've ever dreamt of is possible. You can be the only person there, you can populate it with unconscious AI that appears consciouss or you can have other people visit your world and you can visit theirs aswell as spend time in "public worlds" with millions of other real people.

Would you try it and do you think you'd prefer it over real world? Do you see it as a negative from individual perspective if significant part of the population basically spend their entire lives there?

You can take a sharpie and draw a sad face on a rock and then you'll feel sad for it. We're gullable.

Personally I've got enough food stored at home to survive the initial phase but if not I'd probably rather try to raid abandoned private homes instead of heading to the closest grocery store. I believe it's wise to avoid hotspots like that especially in the beginning.

For a person everyone seemingly hates you guys sure do talk about him a lot. I'd much rather have my feed filled with content that's not about Spez, Elon, Twitter, Reddit etc. Just move on already..

[-] Thorny_Thicket@sopuli.xyz 60 points 1 year ago

Or just don't buy a car that needs to connect to the internet. This is beyond stupid

Their crypto autofill scandal is all one needs to know about this company. If you're marketing your browser as privacy focused and then pull stunts like that you lose all credibility in my eyes. Forever.

Firefox or go bust

I usually downvote not because I disagree but because I think the comment is low effort or written in bad faith.
