  Haha. The orange moron is upset because the ad is true and effective. Go Canada go!

  There’s some good bunker buster potential too there.

  Oh … I has thought this was about eating beans last night.

  Not unless you have something to alter the trajectory in flight.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Rules Could Force Tesla to Redesign Its Door Handles. That’s Harder Than It Sounds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Fair. But most of these cars have voice controls that are even safer than using an array of buttons. I’ve never felt unsafe in my wife’s Tesla except when they once moved the defrost control early on. But that was when I started using the voice controls and never look back (haha - unintentional play on words there). My Kia won’t even let you use the touch screen to type in an address while it’s in drive - however it’s voice control for navigation is terrible. But it allows car play and Siri is plenty adequate for voice control with navigation.

  Touchscreens are infinitely reconfigurable. And the solution is cheaper. Some like the cleaner look when avoiding all the buttons and knobs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The highlighted division and factions of Lemmy.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  At this point not telling people to stay home from voting isn’t good enough. It’s great to discuss different views. But especially when heaping criticism, you must balance that with warranted criticism of opposing political sides. Making a point about the democrat’s failure to stop the abuses by Israel needs to be alongside the context of the republican’s stated goals to flatten Gaza and turn the area into a trump casino. Otherwise you are damaging the democrats relative reputation and so promoting worse outcomes for the people of Gaza by helping the GOP. If you can help with the bigger picture while also helping with specific causes, that’s great.

  Maybe invent lenses and a microscope so people could see microscopic bugs.

  That’s the american spelling.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Britain—Like France and Spain—Is Poorer than Mississippi | Mises Institute⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe look at standard of living in non-monitory terms. Quality of life. life expectancy. Access to healthcare. Care for the bottom 5%. Public education. Incarceration rates. Gun violence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Block chain to stop AI scams.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly. Use blockchain to trace image/video origins - ie media data plus camera signature and camera operator id with timestamps, and track the sources through every edit, along with edit transform info and editor id. That way any produced clip can be traced back to origins through all edits and then verified to particular real sources. A provable chain of custody of every image. If a video clip came from a trusted known camera operator and stays under the control of entities you trust, you can trust the video. If any links in the ownership or edits are sus, an author can track down and produce the in/out of any edit link to prove the authenticity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hamas says still needs time to study Trump's Gaza plan⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A post war transitional authority headed by trump means US army boots on the ground in Gaza. This could initially be better than Idf there. But eventually some extremist would attack those U.S. assets. Then the U.S. will be drawn in more - and under trump, that could be significantly worse for the population in Gaza than the idf.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI coding hype overblown, Bain shrugs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’ve got to learn how to use any tool appropriately, and with how fast it’s improving, it’s hard to figure that out. But it definitely can save time for many coding tasks.

  If my company wipes my Mac through such a system, but I have it hooked to my own personal Apple cloud account, can I go buy a new Mac and restore it?

  St Valentine. He’s pretty old, but he still gets around. The stories of him being executed in the 3rd century are exaggerated.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is in for the antivax in a government?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, but they honestly believe that’s the right thing to do. Or at least they’ve convinced themselves that it’s excusable. They believe they have a right to do things for themselves at the expense of others. That’s why they won’t ever have remorse. It takes more intelligence to empathize with others; they don’t have that. It’s actually kinda sad.
  People who wig out and do what they know is evil are very distraught, and often suicidal.

  I’ve only seen the first few, but it seems like a space based soap opera ffs. What were they thinking - ‘let’s bring in a Q for a random stupid episode, and then a malfunctioning holo deck - because those are always the worst plots from tng’ ?
