scv@discuss.onlinetoReddit@lemmy.ml•Reddit sent me invitations to their IPO to my "deleted" accounts! That's a GDPR violation!
6·2 years agoReddit has employees and servers in Europe, including EU countries. GDPR most definitely applies.
People in Montana do. Well, in their trucks, I don’t remember any cars there. I usually take mine off, I’m too tall to wear it inside the car.

Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft wants to update your Windows 11 PC without forcing you to rebootEnglish
5·2 years agoI don’t know about Windows, on Linux it’s at the function level, and some cases are tricky.

Fuck Cars@lemmy.ml•What can you get to within a 15-minute walk of your house?
41·2 years agoA theatre is perfectly fine. It doesn’t have to, and shouldn’t, be one of those suburban monstrosities with a huge parking lot and a dozen screens.

2·2 years agoAmerican universities are weird. My hometown has a large university and for the most part once you walk two minutes in any direction it just looks like a regular neighborhood. It helps to not have sports as part of the university.

Fuck Cars@lemmy.ml•What can you get to within a 15-minute walk of your house?
9·2 years agoAmerican schools are big. There is no need for a huge stadium, and definitely no need for a lot of parking, especially considering that it sits empty most of the time. Schools on my home country are smaller, and we have more of them, and they have zero parking. Even the expensive private schools didn’t have any parking spots, the idea seems weird. Frankly American schools appear to intentionally waste space and aren’t integrated into their surroundings.

Technology@lemmy.world•Own a Roku TV or streaming device? You're about to see a lot more ads on your home screenEnglish
5·2 years agoEvery smart TV is a dumb TV too. Mine has some smart stuff, I think, but I have never used it, and it has never been online.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the most "I was the only one to escape" situation you've been in?
21·3 years agoIt may not have been your intention but your comment came out dickish. Since your English is so good you should be able to phrase things better.

World News@lemmy.ml•If India ordered a murder in Canada, there must be consequences
24·3 years agoThe US still promotes dictatorships around the world, and in Latin America specifically, while claiming to promote democracy. There isn’t even that much democracy at home.
The narcissist’s prayer definitely applies to the country that elected Trump, as it does to Trump himself.

Technology@lemmy.world•Apple’s failure to develop its own modem detailed in new reportEnglish
2·3 years agoIt’s not that Apple makes amazing stuff, it’s that other companies really put out barely shiny turds.
Look at the zune, the tech was fine, or so I have heard, but it looked like an ugly brick. Seriously, a regular red brick looks better, even a yellow brick does.
I have a Subaru, and while I love it, the infotainment system is garbage. Clearly there was no effort to make it look good and usable.
UX is hugely undervalued, I wonder if one of the reasons is because you don’t notice good UX, it’s not in the way, but you noticed bad UX. So good UX without a lot of marketing is invisible.

Games@lemmy.world•Terraria developer bashes Unity, donates $200k to open source alternativesEnglish
3·3 years agoIn some games storyline matters, in others… not so much. Games with a storyline trend to be less replayable in my experience. One exception I can think of is This War of Mine, that game is really depressing.

Games@lemmy.world•Terraria developer bashes Unity, donates $200k to open source alternativesEnglish
181·3 years agoAlso Terraria is a lot of fun and more replayable than most $70 games.
I like what someone else mentioned of bikes doing the last mile or two. Vans could do the last 20 miles or whatever, and bigger trucks or trains the long haul.
I would also not put vans and box trucks (not that you did, I’m speaking in general) in the same bag, a van is almost the same as a car when it comes to driving.
And of course if we could lower the demands on delivery drivers (and riders? Not sure what you call them on bikes) it would lower accidents. I recently saw one of the new Amazon electric vans, and while I liked some things (no air or sound pollution), the driver was accelerating like crazy every time.
Exactly, this post completely misses the point. The human in a delivery van is not even desirable. It would be great to completely automate this job. Let people enjoy their lives more instead of peeing in a bottle.

Technology@lemmy.world•A New Low: Just 46% Of U.S. Households Subscribe To Traditional Cable TVEnglish
3·3 years agoA lot of those are condos where you get cable and Internet bundles together, and you don’t even have a choice. Others might be getting a bundle but only using the Internet side. I was sick with the first for years.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•You are diagnosed with cancer but have no money for treatment. You've no option but to steal the money somehow. What's your plan?
1·3 years agoImmigration is complicated, and you are thinking only of “legal” immigration. It is extremely common for people to ignore those laws. And a job is not always required, no.
You (generic you) don’t need to really emigrate to a country to receive treatment, you could go with a tourist visa or visa free and get treated, then go back to the shitty country without universal healthcare where you live.
In my home country everyone has access to healthcare because it’s a human right, so by law it doesn’t matter what your immigration status is, you will get care. This includes cancer treatment, for free.

This post is more reasonable and well written than plenty of stuff I have seen from actual right wingers. I worry when people cosplay too hard, sometimes it becomes real.
