How did it end, again? I forget

I had a boss once who would talk about whether something passed "the laugh test" i.e., if you said it would it be believable enough that people wouldn't laugh. If you were going to suggest something it needed to pass the laugh test.

I feel like with news entertainment, stuff just has to pass the laugh test to get shared ...

And clearly not everyone laughs at the same unbelievable things.

These comments are really weird.

I was initially very concerned that you were trying to install a 13+ year old version of Ubuntu, 12.04 (Precise Pangolin). Now I just feel old.

They might need to check their assumptions. It might not feel like the brake is engaged but it's an expensive habit that causes unnecessary wear and tear. https://drivingmecrazyblog.com/2020/02/07/quit-riding-your-brakes/

Here's the technology connections test/analysis from 2023. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0YW7x9U5TQ

The claim is we need more comprehensive regulation for brake/slow down lights.

Really dumb question probably, but are piefed communities reachable from lemmy and vice versa?

I only do it when my thumb accidentally hits spacebar instead of the period button right next to it, and I don't care enough to go back and fix it.

To add on, the video is about self hosting, it was not self hosted itself.

Thanks! Yeah I just realized it is back up. It was taken off a few days ago, though, and I'm still curious why.

It also appears to be abandoned, and pro accounts do not verify:

Nice!

This is actually insane. Their brakes must wear out so fast, and two footed driving is more dangerous.

I don't think they illuminate the brake lights, hence my comment. Technology connections has talked about this, although IDK which video it was.

Now that's taking things too far.

But the slow down thing can actually catch drivers by surprise, especially with electric vehicles.

I think they should have it so there's a type of "slow down" light that supplements the brake light for when your deceleration is from taking your foot off the gas.
