I often quote light switch rave 😁

surely you can open it as a webpage and have basically the full experience?

you should use an adblocker

great episode. I honestly think of it often.

yeah, the comic describes it as "the virtually impossible" and directly notes we've spent 50 years trying. it's just a really interesting perspective that it was a recent truism that this stuff is virtually impossible, and we've solved it and a huge number of other very difficult problems in less than a decade.

I'm not saying we aren't building on centuries of work, i'm saying the rate of recent progress is remarkable. I feel like you missed the point on purpose in order to have a hot take.

it would be good to have some kind of linking.

my feed is usually ten copies of the same thing posted to similar communities on different servers

but, won't car drivers being more aware help? if that's a big factor, wouldn't it be good to address?

if i'm reading this right, you don't think car drivers should have to worry if they're going to kill someone, because you think that person deserves it due to the risk they personally took on?

you think it's too much to expect someone driving a safer vehicle to drive safely and not kill other people? you resent being told to pay basic attention while driving a car because if you hit someone that isn't also in a car, they might die and that pisses you off?

wtf?

I do miss some of the more specialist communities on reddit but honestly this is great for just scrolling stuff, and it's completely replaced reddit for that.

to be fair that seems to happen without AI too 😒

if a mayor of a town in Afghanistan told everyone he wants the US to invade while bombs are falling on his countrymen? yeah. I'd feel the same way?

I use it.. I don't agree to ads so I don't get coins. which is great because I don't want coins, I just want no ads.

privacy concerns around their app, it's a nightmare. never install it. but they can't get any data from the protocol that you aren't already publishing, and they can already get that without starting a different service.
