Yeah, why should such a thing be regulated?

We all probably still remember the East Palestine accident, but all that turned alright in the end didn't it?

Yeah it makes total sense. It's a fantastic way to make sure you only get the most gullible, hardcore idiots that are easy to make money off.

It's like those longer running scams. They have built in mechanisms to find the best marks, by disqualifying anyone who might not be easy to convince early.

Same here. If you cultivate a crowd of conspiracy theorists, that have a proven track record of being easily swayed not by evidence but by lack of evidence, then you got the full-day morons eating from your hand.

Musk's posts go to everyone I'm pretty sure. Many people unfollowed him and he didn't like that, so now you get his excretes whether you want to or not.

Stupid headlines like this, are making us collectively dumber.

I expect you're kidding, because it's hard to believe someone made it onto Lemmy without knowing this, but here goes anyway:

They never said "don't decrypt client side".

Lots of things you probably use every day is end-to-end encryption.

HTTPS in your browser uses TLS to ensure that the content you receive is encrypted on its way to you and that it hasn't been tampered with on the way (confidentiality and integrity).

What if push messages doesn't happen on your phone but is somehow "pushed" from somewhere else?

Terrorism works. Good job!

Netflix was in competition with piracy. They competed mostly on two parameters: price and convenience, but catalog is also a secondary or tertiary parameter.

Piracy is kinda free unless you pay for newsgroups, seedbox or straight up membership. It's also inconvenient for most people. The catalog is basically unlimited if you know where to look.

Paid streaming or digital purchases wins on convenience, but at a greater price and with a limited catalog.

With older content constantly being bounced around different services, aggressive anti-shsring measures and continually rising prices, paid streaming is becoming less and less attractive, as we're slowly sliding back to the times of cable TV, albeit video on-demand this time around.

"prayer warrior" is one of my favorite concepts. Those two words are just so comically incompatible.

They will make up stories that ultra sounds scans is a nefarious way of vaccinating you without consent and consequently refusing to go to important checkups.

They're incredibly predictable. Just pretend to barely understand the subject matter, then invent the most alarmist way of misunderstanding it.

It's a grown up Noogler.

Effigy, eh? Yeah, nothing burns like an effigy.

We can, but we have to work for it. When any group is no longer being systemically discriminated and have equal rights, then they're also valid comedy targets.

Like with racist jokes. They're fine in very confined groups where everyone agrees that the absurdity of the premise is part of the joke and where nobody will be made to feel unsafe by it. But to a wider audience where people might misunderstand where the joke came from, in what spirit it was told in, it's nok OK. Not only can it make people from the group being targeted feel unsafe, but it'll also embolden actual racists who'll mistake the joke as support of their beliefs.

It's a trust thing I guess. As soon as trans people can see someone crack a joke about them online and rest assured in the fact that the person telling that joke isn't voting for or otherwise enabling people who wants to take away their rights or straight up hurt them, then it'll be fine.

This protection, however, should not apply to people who make it their business to hurt or oppress other people, which is why it's always open season on nazis.

Read the whole website.

Radar. Only a small handful of cars have LIDAR. But your point still stands. Outside of Elon being a humongous douche and completely unpredictable, the lack of sensors is the major reason for not wanting a Tesla.

There's been talk multiple times of turning the Matthew Corbett series by Robert R. McCammon into a series.

I could see every book being turned into a maybe 10 episode season.

A microwave already freezes when you set the time to a negative number.

And it would have a great collaboration, but also a friendly rivalry, going with my robot butler.

I think even using decimals like that seems un-American, because I've always been told that fractions are what makes imperial so easy. Everyone loves calculating fractions after all, so perhaps a cent should be 1/37th of a dollar.
