  • Teslas no good for taxis

    Jump

  • I take it you're a taxi driver.Thank you for your insight!

    In fairness, I know nothing of that particular job. I'm just a rider 🙂 But that's what that cab company rep told me.

    He didn't say the Tesla door handles were a complete showstopper, just that they were enough of a hassle that drivers chose other vehicles to avoid the unnecessary aggravation. I suppose if you spend 8 hours a day having to live with something irksome for a living, you pay attention to such details.

  • Oh yes please!

    And since you're at it, make it possible to pay without having to go through the EMVCo monopoly too (Visa, Mastercard).

  • It's part of Europe the same way a divorced dad who moved out is still part of the family.

  • If Programmers are wizards then what are Computer Architects?

    Jump

  • Most computer engineers are only engineers in the original sense of railway engineer: they throw coal in the fire to run the engine.

    Real engineers (with an engineering degree) are called "senior software engineer"

    Why is Lemmy so prejudiced/hostile towards young people?

  • Can you repeat the question? I can't hear a thing with that damn rock-n'-roll racket...

  • If Programmers are wizards then what are Computer Architects?

    Jump

  • Computer architects are like real architects: they're paid more to design buildings but they don't know how to lay bricks.

  • Extra sociopathic point for by finding the exact person who made your shoes in the third world country sweatshop and bringing them over on a work visa to work for you as a shoe-tyer

  • Surely that involves ordering a black man to do it for you using the N-word.

    This was 96.4% true until the UK left the EU. Now it's 100% true.

  • Jerusalem is the source of most of the world's problems. It's been an open-air madhouse for millenia, and it's been spreading the madness liberally for the past two.

  • Well quite. They've had a lot of free time since the end of the inquisition and after they were done helping Nazis escape to South America.

  • Our cat thinks she's a dog

    Jump

  • We've had plenty of cats, and most - if not all of them - simply didn't care about toys: we'd buy them toys, they'd play with them for 10 seconds and then leave them there.

    The difference with this one is, all our previous cats were free to go outside. All of them were very happy to bring us back dead mice and birds, much to our dismay. But none of them would fetch a fake critter over and over, and happily play with the same clearly-fake toys.

    This one does because she's never been outside: we currently live in a country that doesn't allow free-roaming cats, so I don't think she's known anything other than fake prey before we adopted her. That's why she still plays with her toys.

    This will change in a 2 months though, as I'm having a large fenced-off park build in the backyard for her to catch some fresh air and enjoy a bit of nature lawfully. I fully expect her to abandon her toys once she discovers the real thing.

  • Why Not The Onion? This is hardly unbelievable. Perv priests are the main pre-Trump-Epstein pedo cover-up.

  • Our cat thinks she's a dog

    Jump

  • It's not so much that ours plays fetch, it's that she knows the toys don't move on their own. So when she feels like playing, she picks one of her many toys strewn around the house and literally brings it to us to animate it.

    If it's a mouse like in this video, she expects us to throw it, and she brings it back as many times as she wants us to throw it again. If it's a string-on-a-stick toy, we're supposed to shake the thing at the end of the string and she pretends she doesn't know it's just us shaking the stick, until she gets tired.

  • when prompted with thousands of moral dilemmas, would save the lives of palestinians over israelis

    Yeah but...

    You can't have it both ways: when AI tells people to eat glue, everybody sneers and says AI talks shit.But when the answer suits you, then AI becomes proof that humans are terrible.

    Which is it?

    Considering how wrong AI haters usually claim AI is - and AI sure is dumb most of the time - then the above statement works against the point you're trying to make with it.

    AI siding with the Palestinians is not great for the Palestinians, because you can reasonably argue that AI got this one wrong like it gets most everything wrong.
