  • If you have 90 minutes to kill Stop Making Sense is amazing.

    A masterclass and how to put on a good show.

  • I avoid approaching women in public because I believe it's inappropriate. My parents say that it's a necessary skill. Who is right?

    Jump

  • TIL, thanks!

  • I'm confused, what is horseshoe in this context?

  • F1 to raise pitlane speed limit to encourage teams to do multi stop races

    Jump

  • My thought exactly, and surely there are other changes they could look at before literally rolling back safety standards.

    You can have jeopardy and safety, in fact F1 should be a demonstration of exactly that.

  • What cover song just takes you to Universe B compared to the original?

    Jump

  • [article] Seattle driver whose unoccupied SUV killed 12-year-old girl will not be charged

    Jump

  • The litany of "tragic accident" in the comments on the article remind me just how far we have to go in the crash vs accident battle.

  • Social media sites should have 'reverse' Parental Controls; where adult children can block their boomer/senior parents' accounts from viewing conspiracy and radicalizing content.

    Jump

  • I love this in general, unfortunately for me my dad is a retired network engineer 😫

  • Ontario added 134 km of lanes to Highway 401. Its key bottleneck didn’t get better

    Jump

  • Love that NJB quote:

    Engineers get paid to build roads, they don't get paid to not build roads.

  • /r/conservative can't decide how they feel about due process..

    Jump

  • Smacks of all the talk of "closing the border". Like, okay, so no one and nothing is coming in or out of the USA, is that what you want?

    "of course not"

    Okay you need a border, with staff, right?

    "yes to keep the bad guys out"

    Okay so you understand people aren't perfect and some times the bad guys will get in?

    "that's why we need to close the border!!"

    What's a myth/misconception you heard about the world that's went away as you got older?

    Jump

  • Hmm, tripped me up too, but I assumed it was the extra "'s", i.e. it should be :"that went away".

    Jump

  • A bit meta: That people who were wrong or mistaken about something just needed it explaining more clearly, and then they would stop saying things which are wrong or mistaken.

    I wasted far too many years of my life trying to convince father-in-law of so many things, only to realize there is nothing that can be said to disabuse him. The problem wasn't the lack of facts or clarity of explanation, it's that he is fundamentally incapable of acquiring new information if it's inconsistent with his prior understanding or belief.

    Moreover I realized that where I am ashamed of being inaccurate or uneducated about something (and so am keen to correct myself), for him it's always the case that I must be wrong or mistaken, because he can never be wrong or mistaken.

  • Now that S&P 500 is climbing and a lot are celebrating, does anyone else feel like this is just the tip of the shitberg?

    Jump

  • If you have 20 minutes to spare this video really helped clear it up for me.

    It might seem unrelated at first, but bonds will be discussed approx. 5 minutes in, and the preceding parts helps lay the groundwork.

    I'd later come to understand this is called Modern monetary theory.

  • I feel like if asbestos was banned today there'd be a huge pro-asbestos movement

    Jump

  • Until lemmy gold is a thing please have these medals, I wish I could offer more: 🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅

  • What were you surprised to learn wasn't actually normal?

    Jump

  • When I was much younger: that normal people could see much further than me.

    One of my oldest memories is going into a McDonald's for the first time with glasses; I stopped and read the entire menu, because I couldn't believe normal people could read it as soon as you walked in. I always had to get up to the counter to make it out.

    I got a lot better in school after that!
