Oh boy, I didn´t know that. What´s the reason of doing it that way though? I mean, since I discovered lemmy, most if not all drama related to lemmy being a good platform came down to the fact that certain instances blocked certain other instances OR even to the question why an instance DIDN´T block another instace that had some right wing shit on it. Seems to me, having your instance simply copy over everything might be more of a liability at this point.

    That´s one thing I GENUINELY can´t wrap my head around with lemmy in general. How is it, that the admins of one lemmy instance feel responsible for what gets posted in a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT instance to the point they feel the need to keep their own members from even seeing it? It doesn´t reflect negatively on firefox, that they allow me to access piracy sites. It doesn´t reflect negatively on gmail that they allow me to use their email address to subscribe to piracy stuff. Why would it reflect negatively on lemmy.world, if their members also accessed piracy stuff? Are the admins of lemmy.world somehow responsible for what their members do, even if it´s not on their own instance?

    Naaa ja, die Tagesschau schreibt in dem von dir verlinkten Artikel, 500 e autos sind unbeschädigt. In einem Artikel von Ende Juli schreibt die Tagesschau, dass sich 500 e autos an bord befinden. Wenn von 500 e autos 500 unbeschädigt sind halte ich es nicht für übertrieben, davon auszugehen, dass die e autos als Ursache zumindest ziemlich unwahrscheinlich erscheinen.

    Finde ich jetzt nicht so super überraschend ehrlich gesagt. Ich hielt das Argument "die wählen die AFD nur aus Protest und nicht, weil sie die wirklich toll finden" schon immer eher für eine Art Realitätsverweigerung.

    IMO, resources like the Megathread create a false sense of security here. People read something on there and think downloading anything from sites on the megathread is absolutely safe. Just like any admin of a torrent site can´t catch anything bad before it can cause any damage, the authors of the megathred also can´t be 100% aware of each and every upload on every one of the sites featured there.

    Just use your brains guys. We´re talking about piracy here after all!

    In the baking? This literally came up the second this situation arose. People jumped from "This upload has a miner" via "People got banned for reporting it" to "The proceeds from the miner go directly to the admins" within one single post. And all most people had to say was "Well, where do I go now?".

    I´m new to the VR world. One thing I enjoy doing with my Pico is to use Wander and just enjoy foreign countries through the google streetview.

    I was wondering though if there are ways to get to experience real places, but in 3D. I´m aware that it is unrealistic to expect such a thing at street view scale. But maybe it exists for single places?

    Good Idea. It's widely accepted that cognitive capabilities can decline rapidly with old age. It simply makes no sense that a person that needs 8 tries and 10 minutes to change the station on their TV is still allowed to operate a two ton death machine without any checks in place.

    The important part here is to make it so that it ONLY "catches" declined driving capabilities and is not also biased in terms of social and financial status or maybe if you're an immigrant or something.
