He doesn’t know but he’s been priming us for it since 2021

If you watched the video you’d see there are some interesting applications

Yeah the real point is that the vehicle you haul your dirt bikes in and the vehicle you park at the airport are ideally different, but it’s very understandable that they aren’t. Also I’m certain that truck isn’t backed in all the way. It’s stupid big, but not 2x longer than the space big.

Marahute!

Seems to be more prevalent here on the fediverse specifically

Have people always had his opinion? I swear I’ve never seen pushback for April Fools joke articles in the past. Hell, they were anticipated because of fun ones like Blizzard.

I hope he has a stroke and goes into a shut-in syndrome coma

Reading the article it looks like they found a decent middle ground. It lays out how the steps help prevent people from getting scammed.

Multiple thousands!? My phone was like $250

Public urination puts you on the sex offender registry

Yeah I’m perfectly fine telling Big Data that where I walk is a walkable path or that the PoIs I pass exist there. There are just as many positive uses of that info as negative.

Do you feel like a hero yet?

They just have the things people buy. Sugar water seems to be what people prefer over real juice, so that’s what they make and sell in higher quantities.

Education is probably the answer here, because people assume it’s healthy. We’d definitely need better regulation on package labeling too.

I think they’re talking about the thumbnail

I’ve been a social media moderator and it’s an awful, thankless, volunteer job. And I think objectively we kept our community very tightly focused on our narrow topic and civil. But we’d have never gotten to that point without a ton of help from the community itself. We outlined our vision and had clear, reasonable guidelines, so it was very easy to determine if something was against the rules to report.

But this was a special interest subreddit, and it was a constant battle. I made sure that every ruling and interaction I made had thoughtful intent. I had to step down because it was making me legitimately depressed.

I could never fault a moderator for being overwhelmed, especially for a community as chaotic as instagram. For these large, general purpose communities, it’s impossible to police directly. It truly takes the whole community to enforce and report bad behavior.

So no, you shouldn’t blame the victims, but you have to understand it’s a massive systemic problem with no easy solution. The best advice you can give really is “Take care of yourself, and avoid problematic communities.”

We’re the internet’s Australia

Wasn’t this on the tame side, as far as halftime shows go?

Hell yeah. And I suppose my “not good enough” would be better stated as “if a musician or venue is insecure or uncomfortable with a real performance, they shouldn’t play live”.

If you’re a decent performer there’s no need. If you’re not good enough without studio editing, you shouldn’t be performing live anyway.
