  • I want to take a camera and microphone to a voting booth building and ask people "hey did you vote for a man over 70 years old today"

    Just because it's like encountering a bad show on live TV and skipping over it or a commercial and saying "damn that's dumb who is buying this?!" And never finding out. The best eye opener is meeting people who you didn't think actually existed.

  • Isn't Biden 80 years old?

    This is a misplay but if you look at the numbers Kennedy is losing to Biden in polls by a large 50% margin but also I've never heard of this site so beware its credibility:

    I'm not keen on Biden continuing at his age. Because you're voting for his vice president at that age.

    I don't think Biden could beat Trump again. Every person who got laid off during Bidens administration will have something to say about it in the voting booth. Democrats need to push up a better candidate.

  • You're about to make a lot of enemies 😂

    Last time someone posted this stupid fucking article up on a different tech lemmy I got into it with some single brain cells morons.

    It's open source tech. You could fork the entire thing if you didn't like the CEO. Who cares.

  • I don't have access to that data. And I don't won't to be misconstrued as promoting Elon or his activities (not that you're doing that but I see the downvotes).

    I'm just explaining what I think he's doing. It's what I'd pitch personally if I noticed red voters trend and visibly meme anti EV and I had obligations to shareholders I had to keep.

    People are better off buying EV anyways. ICE vehicles are disgusting. I think people just like to assign large structures like businesses and folks like Elon to their political idealogies. Businesses and governments have to be larger than that because they need to serve people at the end of the day with either product or policy.

  • Keep your friends close.

    Keep your enemies closer. Where do you think GOP Republicans live? Texas. What vehicles do they drive? Gas/diesel.

    Call him everything he is. But he is a fantastic businessman for going to the place of most resistance and turning his worst demographic to his biggest group of followers.

  • Kinda wild seeing this thread as a a dude who finds block chain stuff interesting but isn't invested in any coin. I started up a few subs on my local if anyone wants to talk about it but yeah, I also love solar punk stuff so to speak and clean energy, and they are working against each other in current deployments.

    Hope you guys come up with something that works for all your users on your lemmy server.

    TIL there's a solar community, cool.

  • I'm a fan of looking up articles information especially in regards to far left media. Far right usually is pretty easy to tell it's fake because it's so outlandish and off the cuff.

    I looked into some of the guys mentioned in this article to confirm if they're far right or if they're actually just some old guy bitching about the way things used to be and going a little too far... No. It was like hardcore racists making insane remarks online. Some of them I couldn't find but look it up. One of them has a website. Insanity.

    Good article OP.

  • I had the same idea but there's a lot of actual tangible assets that have to be dealt with.

    The first part is picking a pilot country which is probably where the developer lives. The second is either investing in or partnering with Fast ship locations - you need a service or partner that you can use like Amazon prime to store inventory across a country, and last is shipping and delivery maybe it's baked in. I bet there's a company that does this that has an API or partnership program.

    In other words you have to establish partnerships or literally incentivize real people to invest in order to create the same value as Amazon. The magic of amazon isn't really that's it's like eBay and buying things online, it's that I can get it so soon.

  • Hmm.

    I think capitalism isn't the problem nor is liking and consuming a product or experience. We have great products turned into entire experiences here in the US, and I'm not terribly upset anymore about it.

    The problem is the late stage unchecked capitalism running rampant. I think allowing individuals the freedom to pursue their ideas and allow others to even build livelihoods from it works great. But there's gotta be checks and balances, its what the USA was founded on.

  • Thanks for sharing some info. And no I didn't know that. I appreciate that it was a mild sharing of info. I'm from New England and I think even just getting back to home and leaving the intense heat of California would feel far more comfortable.

    You'd be surprised what living on the other side of the mountain - in silicon valley - brings for heat. Santa Cruz feels nice normal and cool to me while the valley just gets so scorching it's almost untenable living here.

  • I'm thinking of moving to a state that's colder where I can buy land that has water within the property.

    I also think to do anything sizeable you need the resources a company can bring. Our problems are at scale. You need a scaled resource pool and reinvestment in that to work up to some of the issues. I like the idea of carbon extraction for example, but I don't see any resources invested in it from US companies.

  • I'm not sure about that at all. At what point does a computer program become intelligent enough to not have human rights but have some cognition of fair use.

    I think it needs to be really hashed out by someone who understands both copyright law and data warehouses, and some programming. It's a sparse field for sure but we need someone equipped for it.

    Because I don't think it's as linear as you're describing it.
