There is a blue van in the right lane,

*car in front of a blue road sign

at 270 km/h (168 MPH), he’s going to be right behind it in a second.

The bollards on the right side of the road are at a distance of 50m from each other, by which we can estimate that the other car is at least 250 to 300 meters away. 270km/h equals 75m/s so they are about 4 seconds behind (if the other car was stationary).

Therefore the lane is not – in fact – free.

To answer this question it is much more important to know what is on the right lane next to or behind the car, which we do not see in this image anyway.

I think you are being naive.

Fair.

The LofN failed, the UN is now failing too.

That's why I'm looking for ideas to reform or replace it.

They by definition cannot solve problems. That said some related incentives have succeeded, such as the WHO.

That's kind of the crux here though, it can solve problems and it does. People are being fed by the UN every day. Yes, it's not good enough at solving the problems it is charged with solving. But that makes improving upon it the obvious course of action, does it not? What else is there except apathy?

Bodies like the LvN and UN are inherently going to fail to achieve peace because they rely on willing compliance with almost zero enforcement mechanisms.

Because having enforcement mechanisms slams face first into the principle of state sovereignty.

I agree on the state sovereignty part. But both the LvN and UN bettered the world within their limited means, while obviously more often failing than succeeding. So I don't agree on the failure part entirely. They may be inherently aspirational, but they tried and managed to improve conditions somewhat, exactly by being an (if ever so slight) impediment on state sovereignty that didn't exist before.

But yeah the general consensus seems to be that the UN is a failure, so I'm just looking for people who are thinking about what to do about that. Seems like the only people talking about it are the World Bank and Russia with its multipolar world order.

Yeah in a way. That particular keyword has a big conspiracy factor when you search for it though. :D

Local international institutions are of course an obvious avenue whether you aim for a world government or not, but I doubt they have velocity required for the problems we are facing, old and new.

Creating bigger and stronger governments will only lead to the protection of an elite that is way too irresponsible with their powers.

Well I clearly see the danger. The many against the few is a problem as old as society. And where there is power, there will be abuse. And every system we have, like separation of powers and checks and balances, is flawed. But the cold hard truth is that we have run out of time and I don't really see any other viable solutions. If somebody has one please let me know, that's why I made this post.

It’s genuinely very hard to find someone that says: “I don’t care about microplastics, “I have no issue with air pollutants causing cancer” and “I don’t care we are trashing the ocean”.

I know what you mean, most people would agree on this. But sadly it is very easy to find the people who would say so. Cui bono? Who is benefiting? So we need to regulate them. And then of course there are people too consumed with simply subsistence to care about any of this.

I don’t know if governments and corporations will solve the climate crisis, but goddamn I’ll do my part and help businesses and others do their part too.

On this we agree.

This is indeed interesting. That charter reads like a git diff on the current one. Exactly the stuff I was looking for, thanks.

World Bank ties though? Oof. People are going to call me a lizard person. /s

Puh, also kann ich leider nicht bestreiten das mir hier schon Volksverhetzung über den Bildschirm gekrochen ist, aber das war bisher noch auf so ziemlich jeder Social Media-Plattform auf der ich war der Fall... Und kam auch nicht unbedingt immer nur von lemmy.ml.

Bin jetzt auch kein Anwalt, aber soweit ich weiß wird das alles sowieso erst zum rechtlichen Problem wenn es gemeldet und nicht entfernt wird; Aber ich bezweifel ob das auf lemmy.ml überhaupt zutrifft, da es soweit ich weiß weder in Deutschland noch von Deutschen betrieben wird. Das könnte dann also überhaupt erst rechtlich fraglich werden wenn du etwas als User von hier meldest und die Admins von hier es nicht bannen. (Wobei feddit.org glaube ich in Österreich gehostet ist, und dann das dortige Recht gelten würde?)

Es ist jedenfalls technisch möglich das feddit.org bestimmte Benutzer/Kommentare bannt wenn die gemeldet werden, so das ich als lemmy.ml Benutzer die dann noch sehe aber du als feddit.org Benutzer nicht mehr. Das wäre im Sinne deiner Frage glaube ich eine bessere Lösung als hier gleich zu deföderieren.

NetzDG ist wahrscheinlich nicht anwendbar je nachdem wie du die Anzahl der Benutzer zählen möchtest.

FYI you have a typo in your last screenshot (This sign m[a]y not...):

I don't know if there is any single takeaway here, this story is just fucking ridiculous on every single level.

1. They bullshited themselves into a search warrant based on typical cannabis "investigation methods".
2. In a state where recreational cannabis use is legal.
3. Persisted in the search even after their main argument for it, high energy usage indicating a grow-op, fell away when it was clear it was indeed a medical facility.
4. Made the motherfucking "Gun flies to MRI" TV trope a certified reality. This is a thing that verifiably happened now.
5. Instead of getting help, used a sealed (!) emergency shutdown button...
6. ...which damaged the machine. And released thousands of dollars worth of helium gas.
7. Forgot their loaded magazine on the ground.

This can't be real. I'm fucking dying over here. Please let there be bodycam footage of the cop speaking in a high pitched voice after. (I know the helium was probably not released into the room, but one can hope I guess)

That image choice though.

I see what you did there Ernestas.

First I heard of this, but since it seems to be just some software that runs on the hardware of car manufacturers it seems rather unlikely. But very theoretically possible, if the car manufacturer was using default process scheduling in a CPU constrained machine and now switches to real-time scheduling in an update. But that was possible for years before this news, the code has just been mainlined to the default kernel now. If the car manufacturer cared about that they would probably have done it already with a patched kernel.

And further from that, maybe if Youtube's Chief Enshittification Officer is against it then taking 23andme private might actually be the best thing to do?

And it keeps getting worse. Basically the whole base plus some forests and residential areas seem to be burning.

I think these are satellite measurements that accumulate over 24 hours though, so not sure if the image reflects the current situation well.

Link to the NASA map btw if anybody wants to check it out

Nö, nix verstanden du hast, alles nochmal lesen du vielleicht solltest.

Also ich habe dir eine ziemlich direkte Frage gestellt wie du dazu stehst. Wenn du mir dann mit so einer lavierenden nicht-Antwort um die Ecke kommst... irre ich lieber auf der Seite der Vorsicht.

Thema Einwanderung, von wo sollen die denn einwandern? Aus armen Ländern etwa? Jo, lass uns die gebildeten und lernwilligen Leute abwerben.

Die kommen sowieso, da müssen wir nichts mehr für machen außer die mit offenen Armen willkommen zu heißen. Die Konservativen heulen deswegen doch seit Jahren rum und wollen hier einen auf Festung Europa machen stattdessen. Werden auch nicht weniger werden in Zukunft wenn der Klimawandel erst mal richtig Fahrt aufnimmt.

Because bee stingers are mostly used against other insects. They don't get stuck in a chitin exoskeleton, only in the more flexible skin tissue of mammals. In insects the barbs instead pull out soft tissue from inside, thus making them more lethal (to the bees victim).

Ist eine Wanderausstellung:

In den vergangenen Monaten wurde die Schau bereits an mehreren Orten gezeigt, etwa in Kirchen, in einer Schule, in der Chemnitzer Arbeitsagentur und im Sächsischen Landtag. Nun war als nächste Station Pirna geplant.

Das Zitat ist mir auch sauer aufgestoßen. Was für "positives Feedback" haben die denn erwartet? Das irgendwer das geil findet wenn unsere Polizei nach Hautfarbe aussucht?

Aber naja, wen wundert es mit einem Drittel AfD im Stadtrat...

Ok, du willst also die Menschenrechte abschaffen. Verstanden.

Übrigens, gibt noch eine "Stellschraube" die du vergessen hast, nennt sich Einwanderung.

Der demographische Wandel ist überall auf der Welt ein Problem wo es Menschen gutgeht, sie Zugang zu Bildung haben und Frauen Rechte haben.

Das sind die Punkte wo du ansetzen musst wenn die das Problem beheben willst. [...]

Sozialleistungen gegen Kinder machen wird nur ausgenutzt führt aber nicht zu eine spürbaren Steigerung der Geburtenrate bei den Gruppen die nicht unter die drei oben genannten Einschränkungen fallen.

Nur damit ich das richtig verstehe... Du sagst also wir sollten dafür sorgen das es Menschen schlecht geht, sie ungebildet sind, und Frauen keine Rechte haben?! Bitte sage mir das ich dich falsch verstanden habe!
