Latest comic: Electric vehicles gone wrong
I'm fine with the soft, whirring spaceship sounds that some EVs emit as a safety feature to alert people that they're moving. The new Dodge Charger EV comes with a deafening 126 dB roar, which is just plain obnoxious.
#cars #ev #evs #transportation #gender #marketing
WTF? However marketing asshole who came to with that idea should be sued…
126 dB is well above the danger threshold. People are not supposed to be exposed to 90-100 dB without par protection…
Or even 85 dB, actually, if it's long exposure…
USA: We make stupid ginourmous electric cars with fake engine sound at 126 dB.
France: We make anti-protesters grenades that produce a 165 dB blast to equip far-right-voting brailess militarized cops.
Fuck them all…
It is striking that a plurality of my students' homework this week involves fantasies of abruptly ending social media.
The assignment was to plot a world takeover.

@popey Having certain people around will drive some other people away, kicking them out will drive yet other people away. You can not welcome everybody equally, so you need to pick and choose which people you want your project to be associated with.
The problem starts when kicked people raise a stink about you elsewhere on a new channel to a new audience. You can not reach that audience yourself with your normal channels, so you feel the need to answer on that new channel 🙁

The story I'm interested in too @Muse!
What I can see is the warning advice, "Caution" as in 當心 dang1xin1, and 仰 yang3 "to look up, admire, face upward" (used as an adverb here) and 笑 xiao4 to laugh.
The literal meaning is a warning that is a little surprising, content wise. Those birds it warns against must be frequent heavy sh*tters!
Where the belly comes in, unsure. Sure with that the translator vividly illustrates the sign's iconography! Colourfully adequate choices if you ask me. 😀)
The characters are traditional Mandarin, so the guess is the photo is from Taiwan, Singapore or, dunno, Malaysia?

Governable Spaces - BookWyrm
bookwyrm.socialWhen was the last time you participated in an election for an online group chat or sat on a jury for a dispute about a controversial post? Platforms nudge users to tolerate nearly all-powerful admins, moderators, and "benevolent dictators for life…
Ch2: Examination of the California Ideology, its "politics of no politics", frontierism and homesteading logic, and "faithless religion of exit." Stands to reason the tech does not teach political skills. Contrasts with homeplaces, Politics of everyday life, consensus building and basically microsolidarity.

HOLY MACKEREL I just howled laughing. Y'all sometimes it is a pure blast to be old.
'Researchers have discovered a new way to hack AI assistants that uses a surprisingly old-school method: ASCII art. It turns out that chat-based large language models such as GPT-4 get so distracted trying to process these representations that they forget to enforce rules blocking harmful responses, such as those providing instructions for building bombs.'

On my lunch break now and I've been waiting since I came in four hours ago for IT to help me resolve a permissions issue where an EventBridfe Schedule is failing to invoke a Lambda. They've given me permission to do everything except IAM roles. So it is and isn't my problem at the same time.
This job is my first time dealing with the cloud and it's a doozy.
