Bumped up the price sure but to 100 billion!? Its got to be the most expensive public works project on a per mile basis in human history, probably by a few orders of magnitude.


We left the door open and told our dog to go outside and it did! Look at what an amazing escape artist our dog is!


HS2 is clearly just a deliberate money pit at this point, there’s no other reason a relatively short line like that could out cost the entire EU wide rail refurbishment project by a factor of almost 2.


I’ve started using libre-wolf, I know its firefox dependant but at least if it breaks its because they didn’t sell out. Also doesn’t shove AI in my face every few days.


Yet another reason firefox is now relegated to being my second browser (a spot previously ocupied by edge)


Damn that’s around 1% of the entire global GDP…


Eh its still a win, a large scale test cast for a still fairly unproven technology is bound to provide some useful information.


Also the magic fruit seems kinda like actual sapience by todays standards? Pretty great thing to have.


And the already predicted heavy damage to the ozone layer from aluminium oxide from re-entering sattelites would be increased a thousand fold so somewhere on that list is learning to live without oxygen or sunlight.


One throwaway line about how the transporter works being disasembling the user (as opposed to say warping space or making the start/destination mathematically identical) lead to decades of ethical debate.


iirc you can’t expect not to be caught in random photos or videos but you do have a right for someone not to film you specifically, someone wearing these glasses is doing that in every interaction.


The greek gods are basically how a regular person would react if given godlike power too, yeh you might try and make thigns better at first but eventually unlimited power would mean unlimited boredom and you’d end up using magic to troll people which is basically the greek gods main passtime when they’re not focussing on one specific person.


Even in the anime the random skills are just horribly balanced, doesn’t he end up being forced to join that guild after a duel where he’s objectively the better fighter but the guild leader just has a random ‘actually I can stop time’ skill?


The prisoners dilema is a worst case scenario as you can have an infinite number of prisoners but just one can create the worst possible scenario for everyone else, the commons generally has the ability to sustain a couple of selfish people without breaking down. Everyone has their own threshold for how much abuse of shared resources they can tolerate before they too will begin to abuse those resources out of self preservation, society stops working properly when that process hits a tipping point that makes it self sustaining so it encompassas everyone.


Disproven multiple times, though actually something of a real life memetic hazard as people who are taught the tragedy of the commons tend to then act as if it was real thus causing it to be real. Its basically a way for rich sociopaths to justify their own behaviour by convincing other people to act the same way.


I feed them bird feed peanuts (unsalted, out of shell) I wouldn’t say they’re my friends exactly but they’re pretty comfortable around me and will land where I put the food before I’ve even walked away.


It was literally just secure boot, disabling secure boot fixed it…
Aren’t microsoft products half vibe coded at this point anyway? Look at all these fires I put out, says fireman with trunk full of flares and gasoline.
