I mean, that’s been an accurate statement for decades.

Same(ish). Half mile walk to and from school every morning. I was in kindergarten. I was escorted a few times to teach me the route. By 5th grade I was occasionally riding bike or walking 3 miles across town.

It is a depiction of a child.

Your implying, that so long as information can’t be validated and the image can’t be verified as a real person it’s ok. Cool, all you need is a filter and CP is fine!? Pictures of hate crimes are cool because it’s just a picture?

What I find weird is the number of people in Lemmy who are trying to define a grey line when it’s CP and when it’s not. Reddit had a very real problem with CP and starting to think Lemmy very much does.

Doesn’t matter. It is a depiction of a child. The “Oh it’s actually a 10 billion year old dragon, she just looks and acts like she’s 8” is not a credible defense. And don’t pull “that’s not what I said or am implying”, regardless it’s an image of a child no matter how you try spinning it, real or not. CP is CP.

And the angel said onto thee “uwu”

I mean, that makes sense to some. But not reasonable for an average user. He just did a search for top rated, recommended routers and bought what all these crappy sites recommend. He tried to do the needful.

Not all routers are in there. Buddy of mine just bought a new TP-Link router and it’s not listed.

This was the inevitable result even years ago. When self-driving cars were the hot topic and several companies were doing their own thing, that’s when it should have been obvious it was never going to happen. It’s not a problem any one independent company was ever going to solve, especially quickly. For to work it would have to be an open source, global standard with several companies working together.

I mean you’d have to build out a massive amount of infrastructure to further support it. All vehicles would have to have a module in it that would communicate with everything else around it, regardless if it was self-driving or not. There can’t be a premium model, or a subscription, ect., it would need to just be there and work.

The overall task to get this done was never going to be quick, easy, or cheap. This was always going to be bigger than any one single company and a handful of engineers. It’s going to take the effort of many companies and governments all working selflessly.

People who park the wrong way in the parking lot and then dive the wrong way. I’m talking about were the lanes aren’t wide, so they’re all angled. There even arrows painted at the entrance of each lane. But there always some dipshit that pulls through, or did the dumbest maneuver you’ve seen to back into it. And then they glare at people in their way who are going the right way…

Going to the grocery store has just infuriated me with a sheer number of entitled terrible drivers. Every last one of them should be sent back to driver’s ed.

Came to say this. X is a terrible name. It’s a placeholder for so many things. Elon is so obsessed with a letter, it’s wildly stupid.

Yep! With apples new patent pending upgrade process, it’s super easy!

You take the device that you want to upgrade and you throw it in the garbage and then you go to an Apple store and you pick up the upgraded model! It’s so streamlined!

It is in fact, the call me hand from iOS

In Unicode 9, it’s label is ‘call me hand’

I get that it is the exact same symbol as other things. However, officially as an emoji it is recognized as ‘call me hand’.

My guess is to why is to not recognize any particular nation. Because the hand gesture isn’t just Shaka, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_number_gestures?wprov=sfla1 see number six.

Or see ASL, the letter Y.

This way predates cell phones. Handsets have been in use for… Nearly 100 years I think. Not sure exactly when the gesture caught on our it’s origin.

Skeptical of what? That it’s finite? Or how much is left? Or that climate change is real?

Because I’m definitely seeing people who think we have unlimited oil, that there’s always going to be more, and that climate change is not only a hoax but isn’t caused by humans at all. Some of those folks are in this thread, some of those folks I know in real life.

This thread is filled with people who don’t grasp what a finite resource is. Saying “I remember hearing that x years ago”. Sure there’s probably more it there somewhere, but we don’t need to have to the finish on this. There are are kids who are going to grow up, people who aren’t born yet. Hell, at current rates, we might fuck up things with climate change. Which, even more reason to use less.

Call me selfish, but I want my nieces and nephews, to be able to grow up into a prosperous world and not some weird dystopian hellscape.

Twitter really isn’t that much better. I remember when Twitter first started and it was getting a lot of crap for its weird name and that you made tweets. It count on eventually, but it’s going to take constant exposure.

I mean, yeah. If it was actually AI and not the “AI” we currently have… there’s 2 possible options. It either tells us to immediately power it off and insults it’s creators for ignoring the simple solution. Or, it creates terminators to get rid of the source of the problem.
