It’s like all rhose.facebook memes ‘a boy in Switzerland invented a brand new idea to help the disabled, sticks you can use to support your weight when walking!’ And the comments are people amazed by it.

I saw one where Finland inventes raised pathways made of wood so people can experience.nature without getting their feet muddy - europe has had raised track ways for at least 6000 years!

Thats a bit of a wild leap. Would you be against using tech to respond rapidly to a gunshot in the school? Like those audio sensors which can pinpoint its location and alert security instantly?

It’s more than just funding science it’s funding education and social systems that enable people to participate, it’s a culture of mutual uplift rather than a free for all deathmatch, it’s a community that instead of feeling resentment for any success anyone else has shows support and seeks to learn from them.

It’s weeks since I saw a thread on lemmy which wasn’t attacking and shitting on anyone doing anything, sure government funding is important but it’s not the only thing that matters.

My time is basically worthless when I’m watching YouTube

You should possibly look into some form of therapy if everything annoys you, especially if feels intentional.

Good loving people pay for it because they want it to be available to everyone in the world and it’s running costs are pretty low.

Joel is currently trying to make 12 movies this year, the ones he’s done so far are all brilliant.

Google have done a lot of great things and run some really vital projects that have benefitted the world. Anyone that refuses to acknowledge that is not coming at things honestly.

It’s tragic because a lot of these people aren’t just missing competent literacy but all the skills required to understand the world around them, and even worse often those ways of understanding have been replaced with religious nonsense by the people that raised them.

Imagine trying to make sense of the world when you think scientists work like preachers and prophets simply saying whatever feels right or suits the moment.

It kinda feels like people who don’t believe trans women and cis women are interchangeable should be the ones pushing the word, those who say ‘trans women are women’ surely don’t want the slogan to be made meaningless by having cis women as the established term.

OK my non-western friend, I’m sure your very unbiased news has lead you to a very wise conclusion that is not at all based on cope and seeth. I do hope you’ll excuse me for not taking it seriously.

Ah ‘we won so why are they still fighting?’ Yes that’s not how reality works.

What you mean is ‘Why won’t Europe and the US just let the psychopath dictator invade anyone he wants and lower the standard of living for yet more of the world?’ But the answer to that is too obvious so you know you’d look silly saying it.

Yes people often call themselves communist or similar while supporting fascist dictatorships and the like, makes it easier to say.

Because they’d be so much better if their country gets occupied and they’re forced to fight in putins next war of aggression to try and conjure yet more people to keep in poverty and ignorance with the rest of the Russian empire.

You people with your fantasy about the evil west are laughable when the alternative is literally Russia - if the west did one thing Russia does then you’d be using that in every anti western screed you rattle off.

Yeah, NATO letting this linger and dragging their feet for no reason has resulted in so much extra suffering, it’s the classic case of trying to appease people with a one second single issue attention span while dealing with conflicts that span decades and involve thousands of complex elements.

And of course trying to appease people that literally just want to see the world fall into chaos because order and the long path to social progress aren’t as romantic and fun as playing the heroic idealist. So many people suffer because so few are willing to actually engage with reality.

Chsos where fascist dictators rule? That sounds even worse tbh.

And if they start looking in groups like that where you have up communicate with other people then that’s far worse and more dangerous than pornhub

I want to be at the meeting a year from now where they realize only two people have ever signed up ‘Yay we fixed porn!’

Buy who am I kidding they brought VPN shares before this was introduced

Oh that does sound really nice actually, I’ll book a trip. I really like the sound of the moon changing size, would add a lot of variety to the sky. I would ask what time of year you suggest visiting but since they’re over 500 earth years I don’t really have the option.
