We should be investing in this amazing science!
Oh but fuck that other amazing science over there that everybody is into.

This is awesome to see, but I wonder if an array of Small Modular Reactors would be the way to do it in the future. Nuclear is a fantastic and safe source of clean energy, so I hope it can compete better on the economic side.
Absolutely right! It can be a pretty great crutch, used sporadically, but constant use signals something else to work on. And depending on the issue, constant use can just make it slightly more comfortable to stay in that crappy state. (Ask me how I know, lol)
No argument here. The wasteful and dangerous vehicles are just a minor symptom of our cultural issues.
There is a lot of anger, frustration, and unacknowledged insecurity going into vehicle purchases in the US.
Instances have to be created and run by somebody, so we automatically have a bunch of admins in the loop.
Then somebody has to make communities on the instances. That involves choosing the purpose of the community, and writing any relevant description or guidelines. So again you inherently start with somebody in charge of the community.
But none of them answer to a corporate overlord. Things are run the way the people decide. And if the people disagree, they can run different communities or instances. There can easily be unmoderated communities, and I’m sure there are.
This is what I did when this story came out. In used different browsers in different places, but I switched to Firefox anywhere that’s windows or Linux.
There won’t be ANY car made that basic from this point on, though. Electric or not isn’t a factor.
In the US at least, backup cameras are required, so immediately you have a screen and a computer driving it. Adding in things like Bluetooth, gps, and phone interfaces are almost free at that point. It’s kind of like how power windows are just standard on everything too.
I respect the project a great deal, but I just don’t see myself putting any effort into making Reddit accessible for myself.
Even if there were zero reasons to avoid Reddit on principle, Lemmy is just a better “product” for what I want out of it.
If I’m googling something at work and need to view a page there, fine. I’ll just use a cached page or visit directly with ad blocking as if it were any other webpage. That might benefit the company in some small way, but that doesn’t make it worth prepping my devices to better make use of Reddit.
Yep, they are basically nature’s perfect killing machine.
Ah well, it figures they have a tradeoff like that. Maybe they’ll be limited to remote locations then.
Like so many things, it will come down to cost. It’s fortunate that renewables are getting so much cheaper because we pretty much are betting on them by being so reluctant to expand nuclear. Hopefully batteries and other energy storage technologies keep advancing rapidly.
