The crazy part is that the threat is real. Imagine not voting for Harris in the US because of perceived antitrust fears and ending up with 6 Trump Supreme Court justices who spend the next 40 years turning the USA into a Christian nationalist state.
What about gross speeding or drunk driving?
I think automation is an acceptable path. But I think we still would need some organization with legal authority. We can’t just fine people later for drunk driving. They need to be stoped asap even against their will. Same goes for people grossly speeding or even elderly people who can’t drive safely even though they think they can. Given your other posts this organization can be community lead. This being said any community lead organization with such a legal mandate would just be police under another name.
I feel safer with a German police officer than with an American one. This being said I can’t imagine an alternative tool. Anyone given the tools needed to stop and punish dangerous drivers would just be police by another name.
To be fair in Europe and even in the USA people don’t get shot when driving away.
If you go on YouTube and look at sovereign citizen videos you will see that even in the USA they just chase you down and maybe ram your car. Rough but not being shot for driving away.
In Germany they would just follow you from a safe distance till you eventually stop then arrest you for fleeing and dangerous driving.
Is Lemmy full of sovereign citizens now days? In all countries when you commit traffic violations you get a ticket.
Police do a lot wrong but enforcing driving safety is not one of those.
Back in the days of windows xp and Alcohol 120% it didn’t. I remember having like 12 virtual disk drives each with an independent iso just to avoid swapping disks.
They may. But logistically I can’t see it being a problem. Each CPU is like 10mmx10mmx1mm. You could fit a TON in a 1m^3 box.
If you are interested in the topic of moral philosophy I have a few book recommendations. I appreciate that you are passionate. I just think an empathy driven ethics is the way to go.
We had Trump and the world did not end for you. If you live in the USA that makes you one of the privileged. I know many whose world did end. Good for you that you were not affected. But have empathy for those who where.
We had Biden and much harm reduction was done. The downward slope was lessened. Imagine if Trump got a 4th Supreme Court justice! Imagine if Biden was not there to undo the explicitly harmful policies that hurt less privileged people. Biden winning increased in a notable and serious way those who are the least privileged.
It may be true that the American quality of life has gone down. But voting 3rd party only makes it go down faster. If you just don’t care go for it. But the mathematics of FPTP systems mean that voting 3rd party only hurts your interests.
Biden did not act with empathy when he gave supplies to Israel. But Trump will act with glee and encouragement when he would give supplies to Israel.
I encourage everyone to vote with empathy and think of the least privileged when voting everywhere.
I mean if you don’t care if one party or the other wins you could do this, but that just means you are one or both of the following:
Don’t have a sense of empathy for those who would be hurt by a Trump victory.
Are personally privileged enough to not be affected personally. If you live in the USA and feel both parties do the same thing you must be.
Imagine all those people whose lives would be worsened in the USA and all around the world by a Trump victory. Don’t you care? Even the people of Palestine would be worse off and they are already suffering beyond either of our comprehensions.
I encourage everyone to vote with empathy here.
The potential of Trump winning. Unless you live outside of the U.S. or are very privileged a Trump victory would only be devastating.
In a first past the post system like the U.S. has, doing anything but voting for Harris is in fact supporting Trump.
CCP Gray actually put out a good video a while ago explaining why voting 3rd party in a FPTP system only hurts your interests.
In a place like Germany where you have proportional voting none of this applies and you should 100% vote for the best party.
This reads like angry ChatGPT. Get real bruh!
That’s insane. I would consider a ipv4 -> ipv6 cloud hosted haproxy style setup if this was my only option.
i would just ask for an Ipv4 address. I asked Vodafone for one and they just gave it to me for free.
You are 100% right.
If you dev for only one you will be leaving money on the table. But for small / solo devs I can 100% see why focusing on iOS and those high paying customers makes sense if all you care about is money.
Then once you have a customer base then you build out an android team/app.
I’m not saying it should be this way. I’m just saying I understand why it is this way.
If you look at developer experience it’s absolutely is true. Android users just prefer free/ad supported/pirated software. If you’re an android user look at your own habits. What android applications have you purchased?
You can search for statistics from any source online and you’ll get the same results. But in the end if you code for iOS you need to test and debug for fewer devices and you will make more money overall. There are wayyyy more android users but 70% of all mobile app spend is on iOS. Deving for iOS just makes sense if you like money.

Issue is that some sites just refuse to work saying you need to install a supported browser. Changing the user agent fixes this.
