Most EVs do put on the brake lights when you lift off the pedal and the regen system kicks in.

I wonder if where you have your account affects how you notice where the trolls are from? Like I don’t notice trolls coming from .world much because I just see a username, where a troll from .ml is username@lemmy.ml.

Yeah, I didn’t have a problem reading it. The most awkward part was the weird comparison to Big Ben. The wrong “there” was the first thing to make me pause and then I saw the joke.

Yes, it is a thing in the US. People do it mostly to avoid filing taxes with the US when they don’t plan on ever living here. It’s rather expensive and time consuming. You have to pay a big fee ($2350 + any unpaid taxes) to do it and set up an appointment with the embassy/consulate.

There are plenty of posts on Lemmy where many of the commenters clearly didn’t read the article. It just depends on how click-baity the title is.

They have a really small userbase, but it lines up well with the demographics here: Early adopter, tech enthusiasts with a distrust in Google and tired of how bad search is now.

Early adopters are generally very excited about whatever they’ve picked up. They feel the same way about a search engine the same way I feel about wearing only the same brand of black socks. Super excited to tell everyone about it whenever I get the chance because of how much it changed my life.

Every list I’ve seen is completely different, but none of them have Illinois in the top 10 worst. The most consistent result I saw was Rhode Island being one of the top 3.

The flag holds the world record of being the oldest continuously used national flag, that is since 1625.

While the flag might date back to 1219, it wasn’t in continuous use until 1625.

I used to love both Vanilla and Cherry Coke, but I can’t stand cola flavors (any brand) ever since I got covid last year. So it’s been mostly the cream soda flavor Dr. Pepper if I drink soda at home.

Daytime photos show that this is the building next to the church. The church itself is still standing, though one wall was destroyed.

That paragraph is part of the new terms and conditions document they released.

I’m just saying that the ‘IP addresses change’ argument is something courts have been dealing with for decades at this point. It’s a useless argument since ISPs keep track of who was assigned which IP at which time.

Every piracy lawsuit deals with that question. They simply subpoena the ISP, asking who was given that IP address at the given time. The ISPs keep track of that and they will give you up in the face of a subpoena.

It’s why people always make such a big deal about using a VPN that doesn’t log. The idea is that if your VPN provider doesn’t keep track of your activities, it can only respond to a subpoena with a “Sorry, we don’t keep track” letter instead of selling you out.

I think there is a bug or edge case with the code that checks if a server allows downvoting. After updating voyager last night, I couldn’t downvote any posts on .world with voyager while I could if I just used the website. My thought was that since I updated voyager while lemmy.world had some downtime it may have defaulted the downvotes_enabled setting to false.

Several hours later, it works now.

The comment/post ratio for active users on Lemmy is 100%. An active user on Lemmy is defined as someone who has made a comment or post within the last month.

It’s tough, because people also like to recommend things they like. If a friend in real life told you about the new CastX® Iron Extreme™ cast iron skillet that they got and how they love its rich iron flavor, you would just think they just like their new pan.

People are born everyday. Grandma may have had 20 years to figure it out, but kids these days won’t have the opportunity to search the web and find information the way we did.

There is no risk for people who were using apps like Jerboa. This was a web specific bug. And now that the login tokens have been invalidated, there isn’t anything for web users to worry about either.

They aren’t trying to move to be completely cloud based. That was a bad headline that misconstrued what they were actually doing. The article actually just talked about how they wanted Windows to be fully streamable from the cloud as an option.
