if you get hit by a wall with infinite weight, moving at 1km/h, it has infinite energy, yet it will merely push you away

You have it backwards. Larger vehicles of course have more energy, but pedestrians are too light for that to make a difference.
If you get hit by an oil tanker ship going ~1 kmh, that ship has orders of magnitude more kinetic energy than a car at highway speed, yet, unless theres a wall or something, the ship will merely push you harmlessly aside.
Its about the manner of delivery, not the vehicles energy.
Larger cars are more dangerous because they hit you higher up, where you have more vital organs.


I agree, large cars are generally much more lethal to pedestrians, due to their shape, not kinetic energy.


Thats not how kinetic energy works, no pedestrian is heavy enough to stop any car, small or large.


eh, you know what, fair enough!


way to shift blame


oh wow I didn’t know that!
would make sense to give more a lot incentives for EV buying if so!


It is also chromium based, so stands to get the same nerf.


What would be better though?
I have my problems with mozilla, but between apple, google and mozilla, they absolutely win in my book.


a real life example? you mean like a photo of a person next to a router?


they never specified it to be scientific or rigorous.


This could have been amazing if integrated into a district heating network.


this sends a clear message though. No the old “just hook them, then we have guaranteed income forever” isn’t actually working. That’s great.


but only if the platform is sufficiently large
hm, that sounds sensible actually


I’m pretty happy with my samsung. No really, hear me out, if power cuts out, when it resumes, the tv auto starts on the same input.
I have it connected to a pc, and use a smart plug for turning on and off. Haven’t seen a trace of the smarts for years :D


Google controls search results and has been caught meddling. Which negates the first two.
No it doesn’t negate the forst two. It only addresses the second, and bypassing the results completely, exascerbates the problem quite a bit.
Cry me a river.
great argument.


It helps spread false information widely
It puts a lot of control of information in a single companies hands
It hurts the underlying sources
When google provides the info directly, and the first hand sources has become completely obsolete and shut down, what would new information stem from? It’s an inherently unstable and short sighted solution.


this is problematic on multiple levels.
no?
