I started having arguments online back on Fidonet and Usenet. I’m too tired to care now.

This is quite plausible if one subscribes to Boström’s Simulation Argument.
Which any sane Vulcan of course does.
troed@fedia.ioto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Time travel doesn't work unless you also have teleportation. If you travel to the past/future, Earth will be in a different position in its orbit, and you'll die in space.10·12 days agoYou’re obviously the main character in this simulation so it’s much more likely that all other coordinates are derived from your position in the simulation engine.

Why should a restaurant be allowed to not build something that’s accessible?

Why would the restaurant’s website be any different?
So? Pubkey login only and fail2ban to take care of resource abuse.

My Matrix-channel for this purpose is called “scratchpad” - and I use it for short-lived information I need to be able to access from all devices. Notes that are supposed to live longer and/or be shared with others go into Nextcloud.
We are the same.

troed@fedia.ioto World News@lemmy.world•Denmark raises retirement age to 70 — the highest in Europe71·24 days agoFor the topic of this thread in particular I see a lack of knowledge that the average lifespan in the US is a full four years shorter than in other comparable countries.

troed@fedia.ioto World News@lemmy.world•Denmark raises retirement age to 70 — the highest in Europe4·25 days ago… in Denmark? I mean, they’re the happiest population on Earth in general.
I’m just across the channel in southern Sweden and there’s no way I’m going to retire already in 17 years (67, which I think is the current retirement age for us)
troed@fedia.ioto News@lemmy.world•Tesla In 'Self-Drive Mode' Hit By Train After Turning Onto Train Tracks52·25 days ago… so, again, absolutely nothing supporting data whatsoever behind your claims.
I agree you’re pretty done ;)
troed@fedia.ioto News@lemmy.world•Tesla In 'Self-Drive Mode' Hit By Train After Turning Onto Train Tracks52·25 days agoYou have posted absolutely nothing on “insurance data and rates”. You have no idea what that would even look like to support your claim.
Let’s revisit: Your claim is that whenever there’s a story about autopilot/FSD having caused an accident it’s actually the person driving that caused it.
Now support your claim with something tangible besides your own gut feeling and “common sense”.
In today’s news: In the fight between correlation vs causation most people will still bet on correlation.
