  • You've gone straight to hiking though and are talking about crossing boulders, thats a world away from what happened here. It says he took a short walk from the carpark, likely a footpath to a scenic view, the path is probably suitable for kids and old people. It did say he was with family and other tourists carried him to the carpark so this was not a trek or hike, it was a brief walk

    I think the story here isn't 'idiot fails to prepare for hike' it's more like 'hot sand can be more dangerous than you think' which is important because I would never go hiking unprepared but I would take a short walk to look at the view without really considering the possibility that the sand will melt my feet off.

  • A technology that'll disproportionately benefit the disabled, drunk and disadvantaged while enabling an integrated transport network by making final mile economically feasible is attacked by selfish idiots and of course lemmy supports them because it's a new technology and apparently people here hate anything new.

  • It's tragic because a lot of these people aren't just missing competent literacy but all the skills required to understand the world around them, and even worse often those ways of understanding have been replaced with religious nonsense by the people that raised them.

    Imagine trying to make sense of the world when you think scientists work like preachers and prophets simply saying whatever feels right or suits the moment.

  • It kinda feels like people who don't believe trans women and cis women are interchangeable should be the ones pushing the word, those who say 'trans women are women' surely don't want the slogan to be made meaningless by having cis women as the established term.

  • No.

  • Wait you're sticking with that it actually happened not that you were joking? What f-tier journalism school did you go to? And they tested on the origin of the world news, already an insane thing to do to in a journalistic qualification, AND they expected a totally absurd and obviously false answer?

    Were you training to work at fox?

  • Oh fun, cause a serious ecological disaster and give the ultra rich an excuse to take even more money from the government for repairs plus they get to ratchet up security using our money, probably let them silence meaningful arguments by labeling people terrorists too.

  • Ah 'we won so why are they still fighting?' Yes that's not how reality works.

    What you mean is 'Why won't Europe and the US just let the psychopath dictator invade anyone he wants and lower the standard of living for yet more of the world?' But the answer to that is too obvious so you know you'd look silly saying it.

  • Because they'd be so much better if their country gets occupied and they're forced to fight in putins next war of aggression to try and conjure yet more people to keep in poverty and ignorance with the rest of the Russian empire.

    You people with your fantasy about the evil west are laughable when the alternative is literally Russia - if the west did one thing Russia does then you'd be using that in every anti western screed you rattle off.

  • Yeah, NATO letting this linger and dragging their feet for no reason has resulted in so much extra suffering, it's the classic case of trying to appease people with a one second single issue attention span while dealing with conflicts that span decades and involve thousands of complex elements.

    And of course trying to appease people that literally just want to see the world fall into chaos because order and the long path to social progress aren't as romantic and fun as playing the heroic idealist. So many people suffer because so few are willing to actually engage with reality.
