Boiling it down to 3 things:

1. Content Scale & Variety - Lemmy has a lot of content but it’s very tech/political heavy. It doesn’t have much to offer outside of that domain. Meanwhile, there’s a whole shitposting subreddit dedicated to an NFL conference – I don’t even closely follow professional American football, but it’s glorious.
2. User Experience Friction - You can’t just sign up, you need to pick a server. You’ve already lost a significant amount of people in that step.
3. User Base - There’s nice folks on here, but some really sour the experience for the rest of us by being straight up hostile if we don’t agree on every little detail.

Ideally, it should be, but this would be more likely to happen in the US.

That’s why I’m focusing on highway travel: it’s the more controlled environment. The fact that car companies are offering hands-free highway driving is evidence of that. Local roads are a much more complex problem, and that’s where a human driver is much more capable.

I truly believe self-driving for trucks on freeways would be a net society gain to get rid of this nonsense. Truckers should just pickup shipments at hubs for local delivery where their expertise delivers more value.

Makes sense. We evolved with movement in mind.

In their opinion, the appellate judges said the USPS had made a ‘strong showing that they will likely succeed’ on key legal arguments, including that the challenge to the rule was ‘neither constitutionally nor prudentially ripe for review.’ Put more plainly, the panel signalled that opponents of the policy might be suing too early, before the rule has actually gone into effect and produced concrete harms that courts traditionally require.

I just saw they did an interview recently with the Verge. Maybe trying to make up for previous bad press.

Giant McAvoy? The perspective looks weird.

I did like the scene in the motel with the red flashing light.

I have been reminded about that crappy horror movie Dead Silence.

They also have puzzles now for some reason…

Oh man full circle back to cartridges would be hilarious.

Observe! The ancient dust blowing technique.
