Technology@lemmy.world•Software Update Automatically Turns off Amazon Delivery Drivers’ AC During Dangerous Summer HeatEnglish
1·10 minutes agoMaybe they should have something like those magnetic self-closing mesh curtains that go in front of open patio doors? Obviously something more solid than mesh like clear plastic sheets, but it would provide a significant conservation of the cool air while allowing the quick in & out access the drivers need. Similar curtains (more like hanging strips & without the magnetics) are routinely used in the food industry for walk-in refrigeration & freezer units.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•I'm too lazy, but we need a meme GIF for an Infinite Titty Drop.
4·14 hours agoWouldn’t that just be some really old lady doing a drop?
They have a hole at the bottom of the handle, furthest away from the mirror end. You can try to balance them on a hook standing upright from that hole, but the slightest bump/vibration/etc will likely cause them to tilt sideways & fall over due to the weight of the rest of it. They’ll rotate around the hook at the hole, and the mirror will wind up underneath the hook due to the weight.
As the other commenter said: physics.
I suppose they could have had hooks on either side of the handle supporting the mirror end directly so the handle end stayed underneath, but I can’t tell you why they didn’t outside the fact it would have required at least twice as many hooks.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that cancer drug Revlimid is one of the bestselling products of all time. It cost nearly $1,000 per pill, even though that same pill cost just 25 cents to makeEnglish
35·19 hours agoHave you seen how much it costs to develop novel drugs? It’s definitely a bit excessive, but also probably not as much as you think.
Yeah, sorry - my brain never really shuts off, especially on social justice issues & the like. I think it’s mainly because the present is IMHO the worst America has ever been for such in my several decades of life, and it’s been extremely upsetting for me. Sorry for being a downer.
Posted this under another comment, but realized it should go under the main post as a response, too.
IMHO it’s more accurate to say “responsible for fixing” each issue. How you were raised, how your childhood went, & how lucky you got in the gene lottery (for both physical and mental issues) plays a MUCH larger part in how you got there than this simplistic (almost judgemental) message acknowledges.

Yes, that’s been the standard manner of manufacturing them for as long as I can remember (several decades at least).

31·21 hours agoI think they’d justify that by saying they need to ensure the funds they need for future research on other breakthrough treatments. This is not entirely baseless, but just another nail in the coffin for why medical research shouldn’t be funded primarily through capitalist methods.

politics @lemmy.world•Live updates: Trump says Iran will ‘pay the price’ for taking too long to negotiate | CNN
10·2 days agoSorry, but short attention spans combined with deliberately minimized education levels will ensure that not only are most Americans not ready, but that they will blame whoever has the misfortune to be in charge when the aftereffects of everything Trump has done finally firmly take hold. My fellow
Americansmorons haven’t a clue what “looking at the big picture” means.

42·2 days agoTrump knows what’s going to happen when he does these shows. He does it on purpose to feed his “victim” complex. He needs fresh “proof” every once in a while. MAGAts eat that bullshit up.

Technology@lemmy.world•All the Ways Europe Is Ditching American TechnologyEnglish
11·3 days agoUntil the vast majority of voters who are too self-absorbed to bother understanding how they’re being led around the nose into screwing themselves — and blaming the wrong people for said screwing — nothing of any real significance will change. All those dystopian movies have it right: the masses will march like lemmings straight to their own doom before they even begin to question what they’re told. There aren’t enough of us who know better to stop this inevitability.

They’re trained to have ridiculously short attention spans so they instantly forget the crappy shit their leaders have been up to.
