I hate these other replies that have already given up. Not helpful.

What is it like, reading Lemmy on Mastodon? Is it like one post with many replies? Or do they nest like in Lemmy?

I don't quite understand -- does this feature let you resize the window again to the size you want, and you are still sharing the same fingerprint with everyone else? Or do you still have to keep the browser window the default size to minimize your unique fingerprint?

Because I trust the regulating authorities to be professionals and do due diligence on their new proposed regulations. This is why we have a government.

Someone who's more knowledgeable than me might have access to the documents behind their decision to independently verify.

Not at all the same thing. There was tons of evidence and theory that vaccines were safe, and the consequences of not using them were very high.

Some European governments are using non-American services, right?

And they also have a theoretical basis for their hypothesis. You don't have to have 100% experimental proof about something to take initial action, especially to avoid harm.

I wanted to ask about this: automated braking for pedestrians is a new safety requirement for new cars in the USA, which means it must be safe enough as a mature technology. Is the Tesla self-driving doing something different? Why does the automated braking for pedestrians system not have the problem of spurious braking at speed?

Wine was so complicated and hit or miss back in the day. So glad games can just work now, and for no extra cost.

Why does it do this?

  • Math operations in JavaScript may report slightly different values than regular.

PS grateful for this option!

The joke comes from the infinite hotel paradox, which is from a property of infinities that you can always add to them and they're still infinity. This leads to a paradox where if you have an infinite hotel room with no vacancies, every single room in the infinity is full, as a given. But if everybody moved over one room, there would be an empty room in position 1.

The punchline is that in real life if you asked every guest to move over 1, they wouldn't want to, and some would be big babies for some reason.

I live in an ideal part of the suburbs. I'm close to my work, school, the swimming pool, the grocery store, etc.,. In many instances, the scooter is more consistently faster than driving and finding parking.

Commute times (door to door):

       : Work   : School : Grocery : Swimming Pool            
Walk   : 40 min : 15 min : 25 min  : 15 min 
Bike   : 15-20  : 5-10   : 15 min  : 5 min 
Scooter: 10-15  : 5 min  : 10 min  : 3 min
Car    : 5-10   : 5-10   : 5-10    : 5 min

My problem is, I really need to make changes in life, like go to the swimming pool more often even in winter; get a better job which will be farther away. I think I'm putting these off because I don't want to drive.

All of these will be easier if I just embrace driving my car more. I can take groceries more easily. I can carry more swim equipment and I won't get so cold coming home from the pool. But I don't like driving because I feel like I'm a greater danger to myself and others, even though I'm a pretty careful driver.

Do any of you face similar challenges; do you just drive when it makes the most sense to drive?
