Neato@ttrpg.networktoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•You have to love Japan's image of the US.English1241·10 months ago
Neato@ttrpg.networkto Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla loses EV market dominance, falls below 50% in US [unit sales in 2024Q2]English521·10 months agoGood? Even if Tesla wasn’t shit it’s probably for the best if one company doesn’t make up the majority of an industry.
And normally this would be good for Tesla as it’d indicate the industry is growing a lot. So even if they aren’t most of it their total sales would probably increase.
Which YouTube app is broken now? Revanced still works fine for me.
Yeah. Last time I checked I couldn’t get paid much to go hiking in the woods.
Maaaaybe if I wanted to be a park ranger or firewatcher (is that real?) but from my knowledge those pay dick.
Neato@ttrpg.networktoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•There’s just some things you don’t talk about at work.English61·10 months agoAt that time the galaxy was home to over one hundred quintillion (100,000,000,000,000,000,000) sapient beings.
That…seems like too many. Earth will probably cap around 10B people. That’s 10B planets with Earth-like populations. A search says Coruscant has 1T people on it, so that’d be 100M Coruscants. But I have to assume Coruscant is on the outer edge of population densities. Most would probably be lightly colonized like most of the world we see in the movies.
But then Star Wars is well known for just being waay out there will numbers and not being even close to realistic. :p

Which is a good thing because Imperial HR doesn’t mess around.
Neato@ttrpg.networktoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•There’s just some things you don’t talk about at work.English361·10 months agoIt’s been a while since I watched the prequels, but the idea I got was everyone knew the Jedi existed: they were major players in the galactic senate as you referenced. But very few people would ever get to see Jedis use force powers. They might see them brandish a lightsaber. Which to a culture who had space ships, blasters, and the ability to block lightsabers (even if the materials were rare), laser swords might have seemed antiquated and quaint.
And the powers the Jedi seemed to use in populated places the most often were mind powers which aren’t necessarily observable: even Luke watching Obi-Wan mind-trick a stormtrooper was baffled. Seeing Yoda throw ships around might be a thing only a handful of people saw in a century and became little more than legend.
Ooor I might be rationalizing a lot of plot holes without realizing it. :)

Few years it’ll be the majority.

Neato@ttrpg.networkto Technology@lemmy.world•T-Mobile In Trouble After It Decides To Build Cell Tower That Is 'Not Safe' For ResidentsEnglish2·10 months agoThis isn’t regulatory. The auctions companies bid on and win have provisions in them that require companies to utilize the spectrum in X years. They must supply coverage if they bought the spectrum; they can’t sit on it.
Neato@ttrpg.networktoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•It's rare that I have to do it now.English47·10 months agoI don’t have any clothes that need to be ironed. If I buy a shirt it comes out of the dryer wrinkled, it’s fucking gone. Ain’t nobody got time for that shit.
Neato@ttrpg.networkto Technology@lemmy.world•Toys 'R' Us Riles Critics With 'First-Ever' AI-Generated Commercial Using SoraEnglish12·10 months agoOld Toys r Us was mostly just a warehouse vibe anyways. But it had a big box store level of toys to look over. It was the highlight of my childhood trips to the stores. They don’t really need to pretend to be the old FAO Schwarz.
To be fair, TheReportOfTheWeek wasn’t just reviewing Popeyes normal food. It was Popeyes’ cheddar biscuit butterfly shrimp. I definitely don’t go to Popeyes for seafood.
Neato@ttrpg.networkto memes@lemmy.world•1.3 million people died from TB in 2022English22·10 months agoThese are poor countries that can’t afford to because the company that owns the tests and treatments keep them too high.
Neato@ttrpg.networkto memes@lemmy.world•1.3 million people died from TB in 2022English32·10 months agoAnd they keep treatments and tests much too expensive for the poorer countries to afford. Allowing millions to die because they want to keep a higher ROI.
Neato@ttrpg.networkto memes@lemmy.world•1.3 million people died from TB in 2022English154·10 months agoWe can treat and cure TB. But capitalists don’t want to spend the money when it’s not profitable.
