the good of humanity as a whole
My headcanon is that the Borg in Star Trek began with an AGI with that exact main goal.
In Memex crowd thinking environment for thoughts unthinkable to separate beings, human-machine general intelligence raises superintelligent offspring to help all life.

What is it about cars that make people into psychopaths?
I addressed that part in https://lemmy.world/comment/12449859
Or does it just bring out these things in already bad people?
I bet it does that too, like giving them any deadly weapon and personal armour.
What’s wrong with drivers? Frustrated mammal instincts while physical venting is impossible.
The feeling of wearing big heavy armour (the car) and being separated from others not perceived quite as human in their armour intuitively calls for extreme force in all interactions, but the instinct is frustrated by knowing any collision is expensive and must be avoided, the opposite of folkrace. (Imagine the stress and frustration if rugby armour was expensive and easily dinged and scratched, so the players would have to avoid getting rough, and if someone hit your expensive armour, it would suddenly become your job to extract insurance info or money from them while the game went on.)
Being agitated by imperfect humans in traffic while not being able to vent the anger out through muscle action is frustrating - you have to sit stiff in place and keep the controls steady. On a bike you can direct the anger to your muscles and get rid of it. A stimulant crash (often anger) while driving in heavy traffic is extra bad and common after a day of stimulants at work. (When the power steering belt broke on a Volvo V70 I was driving as a taxi, it was nice, healthier and more fun to use force to make the car turn. Why don’t car makers allow me to adjust the powering ratio when it’s all programmable now? Why are cars and computers designed to deprive the driver and user of all exercise?)
I worked in a university traffic research unit (psychology and cognitive science angle) after being a taxi driver.
(This text editor is shitty and frustrating, and my Lemmy feed is poison, but luckily I can fidget and pace a bit here by the computer.)
You should discount all impairments caused by oil industry lawfare against velomobiles.

Nobody wants that. It’s bug report worthy.
Funny thing, hormesis is what homeopathy was looking for: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hormesis
Did someone found hormeopathy?
Burning the fuel is the problem, and the consumer does it. The companies paid politicians to force us into it.
Big money / venture capitalists prefer to fund people of their kind: the ruthless. They also accept the spineless they can boss around. That’s gone on for centuries, so the good funders have been trampled and gone extinct.
Consequence of lack of onboarding. Would be easily fixed by popping up instructions for voting and feed shaping the first time a new user votes.
Quora may be exacerbating the behaviour by automatically blocking topics when you downvote questions. They also downvote a question for you when you only want to report it for something. The downvote remains after the reported issue has been corrected.
I wish my browser did this when it hits a paywall or a broken link.
OkCupid used to map those important things people don’t talk about via thousands of multiple choice questions, and you used to be able to build a search filter from the answers you’d accept. Then MatchGroup/capitalism/puritans wrecked it. I don’t know if there exists a good dating site anymore.
The whole CLI. Linux should automatically generate default GUIs from manpages and code, to be developed further by the crowd of users on the desktop. It’s pointless to handcraft both interfaces one app at a time.
I like Linux Mint (compared to Ubuntu, Debian, and Windows) because usually right-clicking takes me closer to the solution I’m looking for, but it doesn’t allow me to dig deep enough. It should be discoverable all the way from the desktop to what makes it tick. Think of Smalltalk by Alan Kay in Xerox PARC in the 1970s, or what it would be now had it been mainstream all this time. #discoverability #explorability
That’s energy density, not power density. https://www.energyeducation.ca/encyclopedia/Energy_density_vs_power_density
The EU should fine companies for introducing new standards that break old standards. Or any shit standards like Toslink: https://lemmy.world/comment/10671314 . Standardization organizations shouldn’t be sleeping through all this shit.
No, can’t be lack of anything, it was the regular Mint 21.3 installer image overwriting Debian on a normal ext4 formatted partition. Nothing should have gone wrong. Reinstalled with formatting on, and it started working.
“Hadn’t” means “had not” (not done in the past), not “had not” (lacked possession). I’m Finnish and might be wrong.
Mine did that when I chose not to format the “/” partition when installing.
I recommend switching to camera native aspect ratio, usually 4:3. You can crop later.
