  • Breaking the law is okay if you drive a car, Trump administration says

    Jump

  • That's not what they said.That's not what the article says.

    The new rule is, they can't use federal funds tagged for "Road Safety Improvements" on automated camera systems.

    It's a good idea. Put the money to actually making the roads safer instead.

  • Is there a word or phrase in your language to describe the situation when you wanted to fart but shit yourself?

    Jump

  • ShartShit + Fart

  • If the government raided your house and found a bunch of .mkv files but you insist its all legally obtained, how do they ascertain if they are actually pirated or not?

  • Good to know.Doesn't change the plan though

  • What is the best way to drop 50lbs in two months without spending alot and no fad diets?

  • What Would It Take to Actually Freeze the Hudson River? New York City is icy and cold right now, but you’re probably not going to be able to walk to New Jersey any time soon.

    Jump

  • Not a professional anything climate. Just grew up along the Hudson.

    It isn't like most rivers you might think of. It's very deep and slow moving. The salty ocean water goes quite a ways inland. Even as far north as Poughkeepsie where I lived, I don't ever remember it freezing across.

  • Why is Pixelfed an extra network and not just a Mastodon client?

    Jump

  • It comes down to two fundamental conceptions of what the Fediverse should be.

    One is a single account, all access, everything does anything any other thing does, kind of vision.

    The other is a, we do our thing, you do yours, we can do together where appropriate, kind of vision.

    I fall into the later. I have no problem with multiple accounts for different kinds of content and entertainment. You may fall closer to the former.

    Copilot everywhere? Not for long. Microsoft dialing it back on Windows 11

    Jump

  • Nope. I don't know if you've noticed, but LLMs can't remember more than 3-6 prompts ago. They won't be able to take over the world like that.

    It'll take some vastly new form of AI to overthrow humanity.

  • If the subtext of america has always been government as 'Donald Trump' has imposed, where did liberals go wrong?

    Jump

  • You say that's not a thing; That there's only one liberal.Then you break down two different camps of liberals?

    You see how that might be confused, right?

    It's almost like different people use liberal to mean different things, which can lead them to talk past each other.

    Jump

  • I think you're using a different kind of Liberal here.You sound like econonic liberal, while OP sounds like social liberal.

  • You Are Being Misled About Renewable Energy Technology [Technology Connections]

    Jump

  • This is what Kagi says:

    This video argues that renewable energy technologies, particularly solar and wind power paired with battery storage, are now more cost-effective than fossil fuels, despite efforts to mislead the public. It highlights the economic advantages and long-term sustainability of renewables, contrasting them with the disposable and costly nature of petroleum-based energy, and touches upon political and societal aspects influencing the transition.

  • whistle rule

  • 70 is the line. Anything below that will never cause damage.Above that depends on how long the exposure is. A hair dryer is ~90db. For a several min that's not realy a problem. 125db is jackhammer range. That could be okay for a couple seconds, probably not 20 seconds.

  • House Republicans propose stricter voting rules as Trump administration eyes midterms

    Jump

  • States RightsIsn't that the line?

  • Let's talk about clickbait and sources when posting

  • Why put the summary in the comments instead of the post text?

  • A few questions about privacy.

    Jump

  • Social media is standing up on a podium in a crowded street, shouting through a bullhorn. Now you're asking about comming back the next day to tell everyone what you said yesterday is a secret. Do you see how that seems strange?

    Privacy lost, can NEVER be regained. When you make something public, that's it. It's public now.

    Never post anything to any social media that you might want to keep private. It doesn't matter who owns it, or how it's licensed, if it's online unencrypted, it's public; Now and evermore.
