Thanks :)

This sounds cool, but troubling because of its license. Trying to write a linux compatible kernel and licensing as MIT is basically asking to get railroaded by gigantic organizations. I hope they reconsider in the future.

Gentooo, the only reason I’ use it is so I could bring up systems on old architectures. Besides that it really isn’t worth it.

Once I realized you meant LTT I laughed so hard

This is the correct take. Copyright as a concept is just flawed, especially in a world where you can sell those ideas.

Rawr xD

Self driving buses on fixed routes sem like a good idea to me, self driving cars not ao much.

We need to ban these vehicles

I think that’ll probably end up happening, a shutdown would not be good politically for the republicans.

It really needs to be opt-out, but this is a good start.

Im saying that it doesnt matter if the requirements are super high, it’s still dangerous and I don’t really see how the use cases are justifiable. It also doesn’t scale well with a lot of people. You could easily just build rail or use a bus and make a bus lane.

Dog if you make one mistake you can kill so many more people than in a crash. This is a horrible idea.

I think the root of the problem is the Republican party. If you look at the language the shooter used in his manifesto, it’s very very similar. There are things social media platforms can do to mitigate extremism, but people like this will continue to feel emboldened by the GOP.

HIV originally came here from another country. If we weren’t doing this it would just continue to spread.

Just from a quick google search the first things I find are more expensive than my nearest major city. Anything in the “affordable” range was co-living with strangers.

This is a great counter to the video that NJB put out, and his comments on bluesky. You don’t have to move to an urbanist paradise to be happy. Even if you feel like you do, you don’t have to leave North America to get that.

In Georgia, a very car centric place with a shit ton of suburbs, there’s a town called Peachtree City. Nearly every place is connected by paths that you can drive golf carts and ride bikes on. That’s just one example of many, but if all you listen to is NJB and some people on here, you’ll get the impression the US is a black hole and cannot be fixed.

For those of you who mention “yeah but those places are really expensive to live”, okay, and? Most countries are going through a housing crisis right now, so if you wanted to move to a country like Amsterdam you’re not exactly going to have much of an easier time. Moving to a different city in the US or Canada is way easier than uprooting your life, learning a new language and begging whatever country to let you stay there as a resident.

But in general, the argument of “just move” is dumb. A lot of people can’t. There are people who deal with more than just bad city design and even if they wanted to move, they can’t. In the case of NJB, he has explicitly dedicated his channel to this. In essence he has told us that he doesn’t care about our advocacy in our cities and thinks we are a lost cause, and we should give up and move. His channel is, by his own admissions, for people rich enough to escape the plight of the common man and get the fuck out of where they live. How is this productive?

You don’t give a fuck about advocacy and wanna move? Fine. Do that. But don’t seed fear and despair into those who can’t and fight to make their communities better. Change only comes when it is fought for.

You can just move to a good US city. It would be way easier than somehow getting the chance to immigrate to Amsterdam and deal with the serious lack of housing and also high cost of living.

Then how would living in Amsterdam be any cheaper or realistic?

I feel like the only thing that can dethrone twitter now is mastodon, given how it’s setup. I don’t really think bluesky will work anymore.

Just kill me
