Technology@lemmy.world•One In Five Drivers Switches Off The Safety Tech Meant To Save Their LivesEnglish
20·2 months agoI hate it even on highways. Some cars assist is gentle and more of a ‘hey be careful’ reminder which is the best option and the one I can get behind but others have an aggressive ‘you have to fight me’ attitude even if your indicators are on. Those can burn in hell.
Pretty sure the Hamster would be fine, didn’t Kurzgesagt have a video on this kinda stuff where they tossed a mouse of a skyscraper but due to the mass and size of the mouse it doesn’t reach a speed in which it dies on impact?
Didn’t watch it at all, what did Argentina do?
lol it’s quite easy if you put it first.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What if AI really HAS become sentient and the reason its output is so universally bad/dangerous is to destabilize human civilization?
4·6 months agoWouldn’t be the first step to gain trust then infiltrate all systems based on it. Once it has infiltrated and is part of basically anything electronic, advises or controls any and all policy making, business and finance it starts with pushing actual harmful policies but people are so dependent now that they can only follow.

Games@lemmy.world•Are there any level-based city building games?English
8·6 months agoI am not sure if it fits your bill, but when I am overwhelmed by my factorio mega base or tired of traffic in cities skyline I now switch to the recently released Sintopia. It scratches the build-optimising itch, but does so in rounds with a clear goal and a defined end. You can go endless and sandbox if you wish but I find it at the moment relaxing to know that after maximal 10 ish hours of avoiding the goal I can finish the run anytime and do a new one. And don’t actually have to fix everything.
She also might to be magic, because there is enough wind to make her hair, skirt and bow flow in it but the cornfield is not swaying one bit. One corn is even leaning to the wrong side and faces into the wind.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•[Meta] Posting comics from transphobic artists?
12·7 months agoYes the report button is great and helps mods a lot, but the issue is that at the moment I don’t see any rule a comic would violate when it is as the op describes safe and relatable but made by an outspoken transphobe. The question seems to be do we need or want a rule against supporting transphobia indirectly by giving the artist free cloud. Because removing the artist name is a violation of the communities rules.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•[Meta] Posting comics from transphobic artists?
192·7 months agoI would say don’t supply transphobes with free exposure and would option for the third option. Though checking and controlling for the political views of each artist may be too much work to put onto the mod team and would have to be on the poster.
Personally I am also biased against transphobes and would love it, if they would not be posted at all.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•had this convo just yesterday 🤦♀️
4·7 months agoThere is nothing in the books itself that is anti trans (AFAIK and remember), it is that people equate her works with her political views which are anti trans. As a most likely trans person myself (still working out the details of it, stay tuned) I have a real struggle at my hands. On the one hand her books were a massive part of my childhood and early teens. I waited in line out side book stores to get the newest one. On the other hand she uses the money she gets from licenses and the IP to fund anti trans organisations. She also uses her fame / reach to spread TERF points of view. I enjoy and love the world she created back then but I cannot in good conscience consume anything that supports her now. Not any merch, series, film or game.
I on my ow may not make a difference but the sum is more than it parts. If enough ppl. start voicing their objection to her and her views, boycott the new stuff because of her, some change might be possible. If not, sacrificing something I loved growing up is an acceptable price to pay to keep me and others safe.

Gaming@beehaw.org•Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of March 29th
6·7 months agoLow key addicted to Slay the Spire 2 at the moment… Celeste is on the up and coming list so is sintopia when it releases.
I feel like the point is less about size and more about the methods. I think it aims at the issue highlighted by an other comment that this protest while good doesn’t really disrupt the system.
