Less ads I guess? Idk

Similarly- when a person is hanging off a building or cliff by one arm, and holding something heavy or another person with the other. It requires an INSANE amount of strength to hold that position, let alone actually haul them back up.

And I hope you never used dial-up internet! That is NOT what phone lines are for.

Yeah it really is choosing beggars. If you don’t want to look at ads to view content you should pay for it.

Who gets to collect revenue from the fees though? Where do you draw the line, are you cutting off independent journalism?

My bad I thought you were talking about 2 factor

Yeah but that won’t help you if your password gets stolen somehow and someone is trying to log in from India or something

There’s plenty of precedent for that though. HSA money, personal mobile device usage, credit for using mass transit… they are compensating specific things. Food is a bit odd to be honest; I’m not sure why they don’t just pay you cash.

Eh that is a thing for paranoid parents. Your family meets with a bunch of other families in a parking lot and the kid can go from trunk to trunk collecting candy. Prevents axe murderers from putting razor blades in the candy or whatever. It certainly hasn’t replaced trick or treating overall but it does seem more common.

Practically speaking that seams to have the same meaning

I guess everyone’s a Nazi when you’re an edgy leftist

I think Starship Troopers had the opposite problem where people weren’t thinking about it hard enough.

-I doubt many conservatives are buying cybertrucks. Much more so libertarians, rich nerds and crypto bros

-Even if they were right wing, intimidating/harassing/attacking someone for driving the wrong kind of EV is laughable and plays right into the narrative of the “intolerant left”

Its also kind of the latest stupid thing for people to attack. Is it ugly, obnoxious and pretentious? Yes. But are you seriously suggesting that bad things should start happening to Cybertruck owners to keep people from driving them?

I think this is a misquote. I’ve seen thing like this before and it’s supposed to say “things that don’t require TALENT”

I generalize ofc but those are definitely the prevailing viewpoints, which seem contradictory.

They do not exist solely to collect revenue, although they certainly do that as well. They have been proven time and again to reduce speeding and fatalities, as other commenters in this thread have pointed out. As far as using traffic cameras to reduce police forces, I haven’t been able to find that exactly, but there are plenty of examples of deploying traffic cameras to work around a shortage of officers which works out to the same thing.

Lemmy: Fuck cars!

Lemmy: Fuck the police!

Lemmy, when someone sabotages the most viable alternative to traffic stops to prevent people from speeding: Yes very good. This is good for society.
