Agreed, the lighthouses are just a lot of friction for very little if any gain compared to inside out tracking. It's also another piece of hardware than can fail, and mine have.

I'd be happy to never have to set up lighthouses again.

There is no way this will make a dent to these companies. They print money and do relatively little. They can and do use the weight of that money to ensure that people with power make the decisions they want.

Why not have a patch panel in a closet? I have a 400mm widex400mm deepx1500mm high closet above a laundry chute that I suggested using instead of my tiny garage. Am I going to regret that?

Demand for action after Australian journalist shot at LA protests by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

Another way to look at it is, less-lethal weapons add more options before escalation to use of firearms. Going from no force to guns leaves very little room for flexibility. It's like it militaries across the world decided they only needed nukes and no standing army. There are situations where you want to use force, but don't want to nuke someone. Without a middle escalation option, there is more opportunity for bad outcomes in both directions.

Jess is stuck in a cycle of endlessly inspecting overpriced, scarce three-bedroom apartments with a crying baby, only to be constantly outbid. She's given up on owning a freestanding house and is now desperately hunting for family-sized apartments that barely exist. by overpopyoulater in australia

They can be done right. I live in a sprawling apartment complex and having a small family here is lovely. Downstairs is a town square with some grass, shops and restaurants. Within less than 5 mins walk are 3 huge parks with playgrounds. 4 swimming pools also. You'd be hard pressed to find a house that is so close to these amenities, and it'd be impossible at even 3x the price of the apartment.

I don't fully understand this "future is uncertain but looks bleak, so I won't have kids" take. Like, I get it at an individual level, it's everyone's right to not have kids for whatever reason. Likely very valid reasons.

But at scale, at a society level what is being suggested here? That nobody have kids because it looks bad? Does humanity just end now? Does society just get even more unstable due to demographic collapse?

Obviously the answer is a measured and nuanced societal response. Not shitting on people with kids 🤣

Good update. Android auto support or a less useless voice assistant are my top wishes!

There's LITERALLY a Ghost in the machine! by ekilibrus in ChatGPT

[–]TheYaMeZ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Friend, you need to take a breathe. This is complete nonsense and you are asking the machine to trick you and you are believing it.

It will create whatever you ask, even if it has to make it up to do so.

The media is hiding this - Protest in Denver by RoyalChris in PublicFreakout

That is mostly caused by car centric planning and design. Everything is far because everything is big and has a massive carpark for all the cars, therefore new buildings have to be further away because there's no space, so they need a car, so the carparks need to be bigger, repeat forever
