Because that would just be another ad lol

Double the wear n tear on the car, double the wear n tear on roads, double the traffic. yipeeeeee

Autonomous cars really will be a fucking nightmare for traffic and I don’t think people understand this. Traffic is one of the biggest reducers of car trips, it’s why induced demand is a thing. People avoid trips if they don’t want to deal with the traffic and people pay for expensive parking to avoid driving around looking for a cheap spot.

Autonomous cars would enable so many trips that would otherwise be avoided. Don’t want to look for parking? Your car will do it. Don’t want to sit in traffic for 30 mins to get to the grocery store? You can watch youtube while your car drives you. Don’t want to take your kid to a friends house? The car will drive them.

EVs are not going to solve climate change and autonomous cars are not going to fix traffic. These problems are only solved by reducing car dependency and the faster people suck it up and accept that the faster we actually start working on solutions instead of tech bro nonsense that only solves the problem of how to concentrate even more wealth in the 0.1%.

Spending all that time and money setting up my homeserver is looking better and better every day…

Maybe watch the video lol? She acknowledges games are better then they’ve ever been, she’s just pointing out how corporate greed has created a trend of publishers forcing half-baked games out the front door and fixing them later (or not).

So much “journalism” feels like advertising.

Unrelated but this is why I stopped play BotW after the first boss temple thingy.

Fuck Nintendo. I paid full price for BotW late last year, $100 fucking dollars for a six year old game. I wasn’t happy about it but whatever, greatest game ever right? What could go wrong? Turns out BotW is a mid game at best and I got bored before my trip ended.

I am still completely baffled at the reception that game got.

Damn it’s been a minute since I’ve seen a kek.

Good ol’ kek

Yeah this isn’t surprising news to me. I can see the vision being super useful in some niche business/art cases but for 99.9% of people it’s a prohibitively expensive toy.

My goal isn’t to beat the market

Yup. Nobody consistently does. If there exists some secret sauce to beating the market you’re certainly not going to find it on lemmy. Buy index funds and forget about them.

In my opinion you are describing gambling not investing.

My advice is to read the simple path to wealth. I listened to the audiobook, its short and sweet and entertaining.

The gist: Nobody consistently beats the stock market (not even the people being paid to do so), don’t try, it’s gambling. Buy index ETFs when you have extra and hold on to them until you retire. Don’t time the market, dont overthink it. Buy and forget. There’s a part of the book where he says that the best group of investors were dead people and the second best were people who forgot about their investments. Idk if it’s true but it stuck with me.

Spend a few hours learning about tax differed savings accounts or whatever your country offers and take advantage of them.

In my experience, being investing intelligently is really fucking easy and really fucking boring.

Yeah I was planning on using that but somehow the tool enabled dev mode for an extremely long time.

For anyone that has an LG smart tv: https://github.com/webosbrew/dev-manager-desktop

You can install an ad free yt app with this tool. Apparently there are issues where you need to re-enable dev mode every 24 hours, but I have not had any issues.
