  • Growth of the Fediverse (20260222)

    Jump

  • Should I be on Mastodon? I never used Twitter so the idea of an alternative never was appealing. But it does seem to be the biggest most active place on the fediverse.

  • BDSM

    Jump

  • Yes, I will be your dungeon master.

  • Pam Bondi Suggests Culver City Has a Crime Problem. Culver City Has a Problem With That.

    Jump

  • Doesn't matter that it's absurd to people who've been to Culver City. The intended audience believes all of California is a failed state with rampant crime and rioting all the time. Their reality has been carefully manufactured by paid propaganda, so the truth no longer matters.

  • YSK: 'It turned out to be a tougher one': Trump says he was wrong about ending war in Ukraine

    Jump

  • Why would they fold though? This idea that Ukraine was merely a puppet that would concede to literally any demands from the US was always ridiculous.

  • Only a fraction of House seats are competitive. Redistricting is driving that lower

    Jump

  • Well, you do have to keep in mind that the outcomes of those races are highly correlated with each other, so you can't calculate the odds in a straightforward way. But the more of a wave election it is, the more the chances of a surprise flip.

  • Electric Flying Cars Now for Sale by California Company Pivotal

    Jump

  • I have absolutely zero faith that the US government will side with people's safety over a new toy for the oligarchs. And these companies are openly saying their whole business model is urban transportation. So they will be lobbying to change those laws as soon as they can, and, as we've seen with self-driving cars, it will be difficult to stop them.

  • Electric Flying Cars Now for Sale by California Company Pivotal

    Jump

  • This is exactly what terrifies me though. Cars are already incredibly dangerous. Now make them 5x as fast and more difficult to control, and allow them to go anywhere and imagine the carnage.

  • Turns Out There Was Voter Fraud in Georgia—by Elon Musk

    Jump

  • Sure, no reason not to count again as long as it's open and honest. But I personally doubt they will find anything major. It's not that I don't think Trump would cheat, but it's hard to do and harder to get away with.

  • The world’s rainforests are vanishing. In this one country, they’re growing back. | How did Costa Rica beat back deforestation and buck the global trend?

    Jump

  • I've been wondering if the sharp rightward turn of the government in recent years will threaten their past success. Has there been any sign of this?

  • Turns Out There Was Voter Fraud in Georgia—by Elon Musk

    Jump

  • I'll believe it when I see actual evidence. So far I've seen nothing that's even remotely convincing.

    Say NO to Mandatory E-Bike License Plates and Registrations

  • Yosemite National Park eliminates summer reservations

    Jump

  • Wow that's gonna be fucking insane.

  • Reddit car crains at it again

    Jump

  • Yeah I support helmet wearing. I just don't think we should blame people for bad things that other people do to them just because they chose not to.

  • Reddit car crains at it again

    Jump

  • It's all about risk tolerance. Wearing a helmet on a bike keeps you a little safer. Wearing body armor keeps you a little safer. Those are facts. But the decision as to what actions to take to keep oneself safe is a personal decision. As such, it may be reasonable to advise people of that information so they can make a better decision. But insulting them for failing to take advice you personally consider common sense is just rude. And when you're insulting them and ignoring the person actually creating the danger... well that's why the term carbrain was invented.

    Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's "Zionist Bar Problem"

    Jump

  • So critical you'll be instantly banned for saying anything critical of Russian imperialism.

  • Reddit car crains at it again

    Jump

  • How wonderful for you that you have the privilege of doing so. Most of us don't.

  • CIA knew about plans to sabotage Nord Stream pipeline

    Jump

  • Pretty wild stuff. I assume this will continue to damage US-European relations.

    So it sounds like mid-level leaders were enthusiastic but maybe the higher ups had better understanding of the political implications? Or was the later withdrawal of support just for plausible deniability?

  • Reddit car crains at it again

    Jump

  • "Common sense" stems from the cultural context. Which in this case is carbrained.

    Most other countries do not consider a helmet a necessity for riding a bike.

  • Reddit car crains at it again

    Jump

  • I think my analogy is way more similar than yours.

    Make your own decisions about how you keep yourself safe. But once you start victim blaming, expect criticism.

  • Reddit car crains at it again

    Jump

  • We shouldn't though. The responsibility should fall on those who create the danger to manage it responsibly.

    I do wear a helmet but if someone chooses not to that's their business and it's not their fault if someone else injures or kills them any more than it would be if you failed to wear body armor while walking in a dangerous neighborhood.
