Don’t they have a pretty serious population decline going on?
- Comment on Self-Driving Teslas Are Fatally Striking Motorcyclists More Than Any Other Brand: New Analysis 2 days ago:
Still probably a good idea to keep an eye on that Tesla behind you. Or just let them past.
- Comment on Why dont more people live in smaller communities , appart from economic opportunity (WFH is making it possible if not prefferable too) 2 days ago:
Also a bunch of other issues with small town living like lack of privacy/anonymity, entertainment, restaurants, government services, etc… And these problems get more severe the smaller the community.
But people really did spread out to smaller towns during COVID. Property values went crazy in a lot of small towns around me.
- Comment on New Ansible comm 3 days ago:
Haven’t used Ansible in years. Has it been improving over the years or has it mostly just stayed the same?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
There is no one thing. Democrats have floundered for… decades. They did a thing during Obama but largely as a party they’ve done nothing for most of America except maintain.
Then there’s MAGA which is kind of a new thing. It goes beyond ideology. I’d argue there is no ideology, beyond maybe a few wedge issues that are just used to build ranks. To me it kind of looks like useful idiots being wrangled by those that control information. But the idiots are at the top and the bottom of the chain so it’s confusing.
People also got soft, complacent, and poorer. Lots of people just completely checked out of their civic duties. Either because they can’t be bothered, or because they’ve got more important things to worry about.
There’s probably also lots of other topics leading into the current political climate that I haven’t even touched on. Trying to explain it away as one thing doesn’t really work.

- Comment on Is it safe to travel with your phone right now? 1 week ago:
IIRC, you have to enable it on some versions of Android. I don’t see the option to disable it on my Android 15 phone but I do recall having to enable it before on older versions. A quick Google search for your version should help.
- Comment on What is everyone's favoured domain name provider these days? 2 weeks ago:
PorkBun has been pretty great to me for years. Good prices, lots of TLDs, good support, and their site is pretty straight forward.

Wish they had a client for PS5.

Just put in a bullshit address that goes nowhere. They don’t verify it.
- Comment on Chromecast (2nd gen) and Audio cannot Cast in 'Untrusted' outage 3 weeks ago:
Well, they’re all but discontinued now.
- Comment on Cities: Skylines 10th anniversary will bring updates and DLC for both games 3 weeks ago:
Would be really cool if they could actually fix the game so it’s playable though. Tired of all the simulation limitations and the fact that once you reach a certain size, the city just doesn’t work.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Probably pig butchering but I’m not aware of anyone that’s went in and came back with a story yet
- Comment on GeoCities in 1995: Building a Home Page on the Internet 3 weeks ago:
I’m not sure I remember the address. Might have to spend a bunch of time on this archive today.

I’m glad Techdirt still exists.
- Comment on Kevin Rose officially relaunching Digg.com 4 weeks ago:
Probably wouldn’t get me to leave Lemmy, but I wouldn’t mind another competitor to Reddit.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
Just a guess, but it’s probably not your ISP. @Demigodrick@lemmy.zip implemented IP based blocking because of a UK law recently.

- Comment on I hate this image because idiots will see it, not understand what its showing, and make up some crazy shit based on it. 5 weeks ago:
It’s not a cult. It’s just a group of like minded individuals.

I just think it’s cool and want to look at it in more detail.

Got a better resolution version?
- Comment on Watch: A real-life flying car takes to the skies 5 weeks ago:
Calling this thing a “real life flying” car is generous. This thing just looks like a mock-up at best and it didn’t appear to even have a driver/pilot during the demo.
This thing will be bad in the air and bad on the ground.

Nearly.

It still looks like that but it did then, too.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 1 month ago:
And does anyone actually think those have a chance of passing right now?
There’s always been talk of succession here and there, but we just aren’t at the point of the US actually breaking up.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 1 month ago:
I think you need some perspective. The situation is bad and seems like foreshadowing of worse things to come. However, we’re a pretty far distance from states pulling away or civil war breaking out.

What is it you’re looking for? Do you want to know what kinds of information is used for fingerprinting?
If so, check out coveryourtracks.eff.org and amiunique.org.

And automatic darkmode isn’t respected, and a lot of other little annoyances. That’s why this is so difficult. These are all incredibly useful features we would have to sacrifice for privacy.
