Yeah there’s no chance that can run outlook. No wonder.

My experience living 1 block away from an interstate in Denver was that 95% of the time you barely notice the highway. The 5% of the time is exhaust noise and subwoofers.

I completely stonewalled the comcast retention stuff and I think I cut the entire call down to 5 minutes once I had someone on the line. I almost felt bad because she was clearly new and had a trainer with her. I just kept saying ‘just cancel the service’ every attempt to ask me something was met with ‘have you cancelled the service yet’

Lady I have anxiety about phone calls, I am not happy I have to make one. If I have to play this conversation through in my head 100 times then we’re following one of the scripts I have ready, not comcast’s.

We’ve been watching the slow motion disaster caused by the poorly thought out CAFE standards for years now. Why the fuck is nobody talking about reforming them. They have fully backfired, why keep them at all.

Also the tariff on Chinese EVs. If we’re going to fuck over every other American to subsidize the manufacturing sector why are we doing it to subsidize making stuff that sucks instead of subsidizing manufacturing stuff that doesn’t suck.

I used to use mpc-hc so I feel you, but I did just check their site and it literally has a banner saying “MPC-HC is not under development since 2017. Please switch to something else.” mpv is pretty good.

music bee is a bit trickier. There are roughly 5000 music players for linux and they all seem to have every feature you want except for one. Sayonara came the closest for me, I haven’t used it recently so maybe its better now but all I found it lacking was some smart playlist stuff.

I don’t know what sort of wastewater people were imagining. It’s a datacenter, it’s not like it’s some crazy industrial process with chemical waste. They’re not grinding servers up in a blender and dumping it down the drain.

Who the fuck cares.

Somebody get smarterchild to weigh in on this.

Why is it repost weekend this weekend? Feels like half of my feed sorted by active is reposts.

Notable that it’s the author of the article calling people peasants and talking down to workers, not Karp.

Fuck you Joe Wilkins. I hope Karp is right and you have to work with your hands like ‘a peasant’ in your words. You might have to do something useful for society instead of writing ragebait for Futurism.

Every roundabout in the US needs to have a sign “use signal when exiting roundabout” until drivers here become civilized.

There is a roundabout in my town that I do my best to avoid because I will regularly see people signal to enter the roundabout and I have never seen anyone signal their exit.

Oh shit somebody who can accurately be called a doomer. This feels like the time I ran into an actual naz-bol in the wild. I thought they were more of a rhetorical device than actually real.

‘it hasn’t happened yet so it must be impossible’ L take.

The graph is showing DOE experts in the 70s’ best guess at when we could have had a successful reactor project with various levels of funding. You’ll notice the line for ‘actual funding’ is roughly half of the estimate for ‘functionally never’ levels of funding.

The ‘fusion is always 30 years away’ stupidity ignores the fact that fusion is only 30 years away, if you actually spend the damn money to invest in it which we largely haven’t.

If China’s economic ascendancy happened 50 years sooner we would probably already have it. Democracies are allergic to massive capital investments that take decades to pay off.

Obviously the graph is very out of date, US funding is around 600 million 2012 dollars annually and China’s is double that.

Oh no. We’re scaring off this type of dipshit.

I’m not worried about the line going down.

*They said some homophobic shit, called the lemmy userbase the r slur collectively, and the replying comment was basically ‘u snowflakes would rather be an echo chamber than have diverse opinions’. Yep, happy with where our overton window is. au revoir, francophone bigot.
