Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.clubto Technology@lemmy.world•Framework supporting far-right racists?English4·2 days agoI’m eager to see their response (and actions taken).
It doesn’t seem at all they supported toxic behavior directly for that, to advance the toxicity, just several projects.
Maybe they’ll clarify their stance.They are a tiny corp, they don’t/can’t PR immediately.
Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.clubto Technology@lemmy.world•Framework supporting far-right racists?English21·2 days agoAlso megacorps doing shit like this (sponsoring) vs tiny companies focused on foss (without mega PR, mass propaganda, takeover budgets, etc) is very much not the same thing.
If Google was a tiny corp barely getting by I would morally consider it a lesser transgression using their services (lesser bcs I would still be helping/supporting a business practice that at some future date leads to current Google fuckeries).

First of all, how dare you post a shit post in shitposts.
Secondly, I can hire a poop guide? To hold my hand & show me all the sights? Brb.
They trapped a supermassive black hole to harness the energy necessary to compute such a large object
Taxpayers have a say bcs they are the larger of the two classes & they can just eat them.
But taxpayers just stay quiet even when issues with overwhelming public support don’t even get a debate.
Lol, what a journey!
It’s not the fact that you can’t see the road that tells you your lights are off, it’s the dashboard.
But that is def how people’s brainholes work actually.Also, there are cars that don’t have automatic headlights and have an (I assume on of those fully) LCD dashboards?
Around my parts the former predates the latter (in high end cars, like the S-class not by a whole bunch, but still, and there are those 70s cars with monochromatic LCDs, but still). Or is it a regional thing (eg how USA didn’t allow for anything automatic in headlights until very recently & expensive European cars in USA movies always had some cheap projector headlights)?
Oh, global models have a lot more than two, several per country per model.
Ofc lights have a legitimate purpose.
They are absolutely paramount to read safety (fuck cars tho for that safety even being in question - even tho I like cars, I want trains too or at least cars on trains).I can’t imagine having a car with incandescent lights anymore (like with lots of other tech - like tires).
I use fog lights (first back, then front) if I literally can’t see taillights in front of me at like a bit over 50(-ish)m & reduced speed.
I love high beams too, it gives me so much better side-of-the-road awareness (animals), but I also have one finger on the (adaptive) button all the time in case the camera fails & starts closing the gap on a car (no, I don’t have an IR camera :/).
It’s also stupid how like 20+ (25+?) year old cars have adaptive high beams (where they don’t shine in other cars), automatic leveling of headlights (to prevent what OP posted), and even IR cameras (with ppl & animal spotting & even highlighting), etc - and the auto industry just kept it all as an expensive add-on for so many years (things changed slowly, but it’s still not standard).
At least the lawmakers mandated auto-emergency-braking on new cars (again after 20 years).
Oh, another example, the French had adaptive (non- high beam) headlights to see around the corner in 1967, yet this is still not mandated.
Modern are ofc better - and perhaps fill the purpose you mention you use fog lights for.
… finding out what’s going on or loving that long both sound like very risky propositions with dubious upsides.
(The guns don’t need to be fake for this meme to still work correctly.)
Maybe it’s also bcs it’s a global model & some markets do have prescribed a max & a min height of a headlight from the ground (I heard even UK had or has that).
It’s also why trucks in EU have regular headlamps closer to the ground compared to those in USA.
Lol, that all sounds correct unfortunately.
The cars with headlights that I find glaring are usually/more often unadjusted low-beams.
Or fog lamps bcs “iT mAKeS It lOoK sPorTIeR”.Interestingly I can code my DRLs (front and back - diffident markets have different rules regarding what DRLs are & when are needed) to different levels & at default they are at 20 or 30% (the 100% being when used with regular headlights on, probably).
I tried it bcs I was curious & set it to 100%, but was def distracting & I reset them immediately (I didn’t even do both sides, just the right one to have a comparison).
