Impossible is pretty good, but yeah I stay away from Beyond. It ain’t it.
- Comment on 50 mph man 1 week ago:
It’s like those old cartoons where they would try to “sleep faster”. The cue was the faster breathing cycles.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
How pendulous
- Comment on A handful of people are slowly killing over 8 billion people, but we're expected to sit idly by and let it happen 1 week ago:
The best thing that the average person can do is to stop reproducing. No, it won’t save the planet or anything. But will prevent them from being victimized.

- Comment on What will the AI revolution mean for the global south? 3 weeks ago:
More technological stratification = more divide between the haves and the have nots. This applies both between nations but also between the various socioeconomic classes within nations. IOW, the rich will continue to get richer at the expense of everyone else.

There was a recent update for Fallout 4 which broke a bunch of mods. Fallout 4 was released in 2015 and is a single-player game. Why did it get an update?

Tough to find phones that still have a jack. USB headphones or a dongle?

I think they are saying to just not connect whatever. E.g. buy the smart TV and don’t connect it to the internet.
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
I always liked the concept of Matrix, and still actively use it, but there’s some serious jank.
I use Element as well as Beeper, which is at its core an Element client based on network bridging. I’m a big fan of Matrix, but it isn’t as approachable as other messaging services and requires some technical know-how to use effectively.
It seems like the Linux of messaging services.

- Comment on Delta moves toward eliminating set prices in favor of AI that determines how much you personally will pay for a ticket 1 month ago:
They tried to claim they weren’t responsible for the Ai.
Why wouldn’t they be? They made the decision to use (and continue using) AI.
If someone gets drunk, they can’t turn around and say “it was the alcohol’s fault, not mine.”
My first question is rhetorical. I know the answer is: corporations, lobbying, and money.

I minimize air travel to the extent possible. Unfortunately I have non-local family so unless I choose to just not see them my choices are a bit limited.
But yeah, I don’t fly for tourism or leisure.

And saying but the algo / AI did it
Sure, the algo did it. But someone chose to use it and continue using it.

How long until they are found price-gouging people in certain demographics?
- Comment on Can I lick it? 1 month ago:
I don’t think you’d be licking much of anything after that. It’s the one at 10 seconds in the clip: www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YNsIaSbFdg

Titanium (Ti) is a happy shade of green.
And I would certainly hope so. You can buy eating utensils made from titanium.

To my understanding, organic compounds are where the real danger is with mercury.

That takes me back.
- Comment on Evading suffering is _itself_ a form of suffering 1 month ago:
This could probably be thought of as “fear and anxiety are forms of suffering.” Though it might be a bit more nuanced than that.

- Comment on Scientists make game-changing breakthrough that could slash costs of solar panels: 'Has the potential to contribute to the energy transition' 1 month ago:
I thought this has already been done. Guess there’s some nuance to it that is above my understanding of it.
Anyhow, advancements in solar are cool in my book.
