  • How fitting then. His whole life is just being a loser with extra steps.

  • Fat and old with enough money to keep it all together, but not enough self awareness to keep it together well.

  • Until enough of us say that we don’t care what they think, and we demand better.

  • A reduction in work hours is also a step forward until UBI is instated. If I make the same amount doing 4 or even 3 days of work in a week, while automation does the rest, that works for me. The idea is that people need to work less and make the same if not more. UBI or a reduction in work hours are both good paths forward. UBI being the ultimate goal.

  • I don’t care what one of the richest people in the world thinks about labour and work/life balance. I care what the average person thinks.

    But he’s right about this.

  • This is how it’ll happen. Opt in. They’ll charge more by default and then you can share your safe driving with them to lower your premium. It’s often how it currently works with odometer readings, except not through a smart car, just a quick dash reading.

  • What could go wrong?

    Seriously, tell me all the ways it could go wrong. It makes me happy thinking about it.

  • Cheap Amazon junk isn’t regulated like cars are.

    As long as there are safety regulations only allowing certain cars that meet their standards to drive on the roads, I don’t really care. If any company wants to make a cheap knockoff that meets safety standards, go for it.

  • Terminator with spider people

  • 7 inches is enough to get you mostly through a doorway.

    Doors are about 1.5 inches thick. The average chest depth of an American male is 11.5 inches.

    Teleporting yourself 7 inches forward would put a door 7 inches from your front and 3 inches from your back. You would have to only be 5.5 inches deep in order to make it entirely through the doorway without merging with the door.

  • Imagine I keep a log of everyone I encounter… their race, hair colour, eye colour, glasses shape, accent, gender, fingernail length, ear lobe shape, everything. I would probably encounter the same people every so often, and I would be able to recognize them from my log.

    Now imagine that one of them started dying their hair and putting in coloured contact lenses, and they changed it up every day. I may be able to collect all of the details about them. They’re very unique. But… I couldn’t match them against anyone in my log, even though I’ve seen them multiple times.

    Having a unique browser fingerprint is perfectly fine if it constantly changes. They can collect all of those details about you, but if you keep changing key details, they won’t be able to recognize you.

  • iOS 17 Safari (especially with enhanced fingerprint protection on) is really good at fingerprint protection. It rotates a few data points like canvas ID so that it makes you look like a new fingerprint each time.

    Fingerprint analyzers can find out lots about your fingerprint that way, but if your fingerprint keeps changing, it becomes difficult to identify you. Unique fingerprints don’t mean anything if your fingerprint keeps changing.

  • Normally I would upvote, but 2024 is a leap year. It’s 365.

  • It would be pretty funny for a court to actually determine that a “just business” is synonymous with “doing evil”

  • The person is in their contacts as Dad, yet the dad says “Thanks dad”. Who’s the dad?

  • 1923 is a little premature. He wasn’t appointed Chancellor of Germany until 10 years after that. Hitler was actually in prison in 1923 for attempting a coup, so it wouldn’t have been too upsetting to say you were against him.

  • Seriously. How is it that the guy who didn’t put an intermission in his 3.5 hour movie is whining about people not wanting to see his movies in the cinema anymore?

    I’ll watch this one, but I’ll do it at home where I can take needed breaks.

  • Aren’t these the people we give massive tax breaks to? Because we trust them with our money more than the people who use it to pay off their bills?
