  • tell me again… how old is ext2 now?

    age of the initial version might not be the best metric

  • You will find new ones you like or you will watch less.

    Both is fine and you will survive.

    And if less people consume content on YouTube, less creators will upload their stuff ONLY there.

  • Nothing.

    There's nothing out there.

    Just sea and birds and fish.

  • So, how would you do that on a ship built to be filled by two ramps?

  • on a ship of that type? yes, I do.

  • and look surprisingly similar to the one in those articles :D

  • how do you think those cars were loaded into the ship? by crane?

  • Small cars from the 80s/90s are a death trap even at slow speeds and making them safe requires them to be bigger

    it's probably not the 90s you're thinking about.

    90s cars had airbags, large crumple zones and seat belts. Those were pretty safe already. Maybe you are thinking 60s and 70s?

    Yes, 90s cars were fucked if hit by 3t of steel at 180km/h, yes. But so are current cars.

    And less heavy cars that run into you, made less safety needed. So if we were to build only light (say sub 1t and driving 80km/h max) cars to modern standards, we would all be way better off. But people are assholes, so that won't happen.

  • No. Out of the environment!

    So it's no longer in an environment.

  • I mean statistics are clear on that one… :D

  • If you read the actual article by a journalist they don’t say it’s a certainty. Maybe the problem is people like you who can’t tell a journalist from a random guy.

    did you even read what I wrote?

    I specifically said that journalists are writing "there's no proof that it wasn't" and that other people are reading "it was" into it.

    It's exactly that. People are unable to read/understand.

  • I said there might have been aliens, testing new beam weapons - anything is possible.

    we'll never know‽ /s

  • and a burning car is a whole lot of burning material

    it's not a tiny piece of wood - in many cases you'll detect it first, when there's actually a whole lot and flames/smoke escaping from the car.

  • that's the fun thing - unless you remove every last drop, emptying the gas tank makes it MORE dangerous, not less.

    liquid gas in enclosed containers is actually pretty harmless. But leaking fluids mixtures of gas and air are explosive.

  • don't think so

    they might use that for more closed down "content" like special paid-for youtube videos or to "secure" some enterprise-google-apps-access.

    And that'll never be available on the very last client out there - that's kinda important for things like web search. Google is really afraid of people starting to move away from google for that.

  • my current guess is: this problem will mostly fix itself

    youtube-ads are ridiculous. I wouldn't consume these as they are now. If I'm forced to use that site without sponsorblock and adblock, I'm tending to just never watching anything there.

    So if NewPipe/Sponsorblock (and of course NewPipe+Sponsorblock) are gone, then I won't use that shit anymore and don't feel any pain.

    Same as with reddit. The last weeks I visited when pointed to reddit by some search enigne, but not out of "I could browse it for fun". I didn't miss anything. Twitter? Not even trying to visit that shithole anymore, since most links are unreadable anyways.

    If platforms are closing down, they will lose my interactions. More free time for me!

  • good luck doing it with a burning gas powered car!

  • can’t function without cars entirely, we still need delivery vehicles etc.

    yeah, okay. But we need far fewer than we have. So producing them and shipping them around the globe needs to be reduced dramatically. So that point still kinda stands?

    And yes "this should have been made safer" is another point - but that doesnt invalidate the other.
