So hold on, doesn’t this mean that companies can just threaten to build wind turbines and get a bunch of bribes? Any sensible businessman would immediately spin up 500 companies to do this as fast as possible.
- Comment on The Art of the Deal 1 week ago:
there’s no precise definition of AI, it can just be an arduino taking the input from a couple sensors to decide where the turbine should point.

i wish actual energy production had something to do with electricity prices, rather than the price being decided by the companies coming together and arguing how much they can milk us for before we decide to just go amish for a month…
- Comment on Why are people so rude on Reddit compared to the Fediverse? 3 weeks ago:
I’m not sure why people are so intent on excusing reddit with “oh people are just inherently mean” or “it’s because there’s a large userbase”…
No it’s because most of the “people” on reddit are bots lol, it’s the same as all the big platforms. It’s just a fuckload of bots trying to make people as angry at each other as possible, because that drives more engagement and politically benefits the people running the bots and who own the platforms.
(and part of it is just that more “”““users””“” means you can brag to advertisers and get more money).People who aren’t angry and aren’t made to think everyone is a miserable shithead might do horrifying things like “become friends” and “help each other”.
Or truly horrifyingly they might talk to each other and be convinced that rich people kinda suck actually, and we should do something about that, like stop using platforms owned by rich people. - Comment on Why are people so rude on Reddit compared to the Fediverse? 3 weeks ago:
the big thing about lemmy is that it’s actually possible to have communities with proper moderation, where the mods nuke shitheads from orbit and aren’t sent to the shadow realm for banning nazis
We just have to, y’now, actually do that, which is the hard part.
- Comment on Why are people so rude on Reddit compared to the Fediverse? 3 weeks ago:
frankly at this point i just assume that anyone who is really obviously being stupidly aggressive isn’t a real person, it’s probably just a bot meant to push people apart.
- Comment on Why are people so rude on Reddit compared to the Fediverse? 3 weeks ago:
fwiw i would not assume those are real complaints, it’s wholly possible that those are just bots trying to polarize people.

relatedly, i’m laughing at people here in sweden complaining about rising gas prices that are still nowhere near what they were just a few years ago
drivers have no fucking short term memory i swear to god, all they’re capable of comprehending is “number go up is bad”

ironically i fear the SHIT out of right wingers, because they seem to actively want me to suffer before i die, for the crime of not being able to have a job

if people didn’t bang on about it i would not be able to tell when the clocks switch time, because digital stuff automatically changes and sleeping one hour more or less is well within margin of error for me.

en.wikipedia.org/…/Walking_with_Dinosaurs_(2025_T… - Comment on 5 weeks ago:
From what i’ve seen it’s basically 50/50 if any one species had a significant amount of feathers, but feathers do seem to have existed in the earliest dinosaur ancestor so it could maybe potentially show up in any species.
Then you can get more detailed and memorize which kinds of dinosaur had what kind of feather covering, like sauropods seem to at most have some quills and similar decorations, while dromaeosaurs (dakotaraptor, velociraptor, etc) were basically big murder birds with full on wings.
But of course even within clades there could be significant difference: T.rex seems to have been, uh, covered in straight up skin like a giant plucked chicken… but at least some of its relatives were mostly covered in feathers.

i have to wonder if americans uh, get them confused with geese… Because geese can absolutely have a tendency to actively harass you, while swans don’t get close enough to interact with us in the first place.
Unless american swans are just suffering from lead poisoning like the general population?

it’s not like documentaries aren’t plenty popular, that recent series on dinosaurs (walking with dinosaurs, i think?) with our homeboy David Attenborough was hyped as fuck, no cap, on god, etc
