- Comment on Can you drive west to lengthen the sunset? 1 day ago:
Uh, I made a comment before and after I watched it that already addressed this long before you replied. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt that you are experiencing some kind of federation issue that prevented you from seeing the edit - Maybe reach out to your server admin about this issue?

You actually proved the exact opposite.
That dry, dusty ground proves that water can’t always find the level.
Find the level. Yeah, I’ll show myself out.

They don’t usually do questions with such obvious answers. I didn’t watch it, but I’m guessing it’s something to be effect of “Yes. And you can stop the sun from setting completely if you travel at a few hundred mph, depending on your latitude.”
Just one question. Did he end up finding a paved road far enough north that you can do it in an ordinary car at legal speeds? I’m guessing somewhere in Russia or Canada?

Maybe it was a bad idea for society to put 90% of the internet on one company’s infrastructure.
- Comment on The bourgeoisie could technically unintentionally end capitalism... 3 days ago:
You’ve just described the post-scarcity economy.
I think of the two possible trajectories as the Star Wars universe and the Star Trek universe. Both have fully automated supply chains through droids/replicator technology. However, in Star Wars, only the elite few have access to that technology. Hence, the economy is still centered around trade and, well, as the title would suggest — wars. In Star Trek, that technology is democratized and made available to everyone to create a world in which money has no meaning, and everyone has access to technology and meeting their basic needs.
It all depends on what kind of society we decide to build from here on out.

- Comment on The highlighted division and factions of Lemmy. 1 week ago:
I’m not scrolling through the thread to police people. I’m just responding to you as one person to another. I’m certainly not trying to shut you up.
I didn’t call you or anyone else in this thread a tankie, because I actually agree with the premise that Lemmy could benefit from a more collaborative culture. I’m not identifying and harping on which political issues we disagree on here, because there are plenty of other threads on Lemmy for that.
I’m just letting you know that I honestly believe that you and I are on the same side. We agree on 90% of the most important issues in the world right now. I don’t think there is any daylight between us when it comes to Trump or unions or healthcare or LGBTQ+ or protecting online speech or most other things. I don’t consider you an enemy at all, and I hope you think the same about me. We can and should (and have) discuss when we disagree on threads related to topics where we differ.
Neglecting the majority of topics where we support one another does not benefit us, Lemmy, or the world.

No one here brought up the Democratic Party or genocide except you.
This is a post about division on Lemmy.
You actually don’t have to demonstrate that. You can choose to find common ground in the culture of the platform and save the division for matters that are important to you in the communities that discuss them. That’s up to you, friend.

Right wingers will be like, “Well he’s racist buy we agree on taxes and the gays so he’s all right with me.”
Left wingers will be like, “We disagree on one of the 100 most important issues to me, therefore you are my enemy!”

Depending on how cold you want it, the heat death if the universe is just another 10^101 years away ¯_(ツ)_/¯
- Comment on Discussion: Long-term need for automation tools for moderation 2 weeks ago:
Fair, thanks for the clarification.
- Comment on Discussion: Long-term need for automation tools for moderation 2 weeks ago:
There are a lot of people who make excellent mods who are not programmers. It’s already a small enough pool that requiring a particular skill only further narrows the pool. It also has a secondary effect that good mods may be unwilling to take on larger communities, or additional responsibilities.
If we want better moderation, the fediverse has to become more friendly to non technical people.
- Comment on Cooling stuff does not require any energy! 2 weeks ago:
Yes, over a long enough timeline this is true. Usually people are interested in cooling things sooner than the death of the Sun.

The number of fat cells don’t really change in your body. The individual cells grow and shrink.
