You do realize that “Christianity bad” doesn’t mean that “Islam bad” is false, right?

Both can be true at once.

I will however dispute that it is a question of extremism. The fact is that a majority of muslims, globally, hold views that I would consider to be misogynistic (feel free to update me on that if there is a more recent global study with the same scope).

If something is the norm in a group rather than a fringe idea, it can hardly be considered extremism. Given that Islam has many of these misogynistic values close to its’ core, it isn’t particularly shocking either.

As such, considering the above, I consider Islam to be bad on the whole. Note: this doesn’t mean that someone is inherently “bad” due to being muslim, or that “good” muslims don’t exist - I am acquainted with a few.

If you want that, lemmy.zip, lemmy.today of piefed.zip may be better instances for you.

Wow, thanks for providing this!

If that really is a list of “worst offences” it really is very mild compared to the explicit calls for violence I see every day in the fediverse.

To clarify, I was referring to visibility of deer and items. The situations you mention here limit the vision of the driver as a whole, and then the visibility of things no longer matters. Where I live we also have lots of deer, but accidents involving deer & other bigger wildlife is uncommon enough to make the local news (and you’ll almost never see such roadkill along the roads). During the season I’ll see animals several times per week, sometimes having to stop more than once on a single drive.

Nastiest run in I’ve had was where a group of deer had gotten in between the wildlife fencing on a stretch of highway

It looks like wet pavement.

That’s the part that makes black ice nasty. The temps can be slightly above freezing with wet spots everywhere. Then suddenly one small spot has slightly lower temperature. Bam, black ice.

I agree that drivers have a much larger responsibility, barring reckless behaviour. What I disagree with is driving being inherently dangerous. It’s a question of system design. As you mentioned Wisconsin, I assume you live in the US. My condolences.

This is simply incorrect.

• Deer are very visible at night due to their reflective eyes, coat (which is not black) and movement. They can be spotted at >150m distance with high beams on. The reason they (and other wildlife) are dangerous is because they can jump into the road at the last moment from behind cover.

• Stationary items are usually a very low threat since the driver has a long time to spot them. Bigger ones (such as a tree, bin or car) are also inherently more visible. Also, the worst case is damage to the vehicle.

• Adding on, it is usually mandatory for broken down/stopped vehicles to have their hazards on and put out a warning triangle ahead if they are in the road.

As an intelligent being, you are ultimately responsible for your own continued safety. The good news however is that most drivers try to avoid hitting pedestrians.

If you spend a lot of time around traffic at night, a simple reflector tag does wonders to increase your visibility and lets you take more space.

I don’t fucking understand how anyone could watch trump and think that this guy has any brain cells.

It’s an easy trap to underestimate Trump, but the fact is that he is anything but stupid. He sounds absurd because we aren’t the target audience. That is why the media laughed in 2016, they aren’t either.

The fact is that he is an excellent showman and good manipulator. He won based on an electorate fed up with a hypocritical and out of touch establishment voting for the “fuck you” option.

I’d vote for him. Back when Biden was dropping out, I posted the question of peoples preferred democratic candidate, and Kelly was suggested by several people.

I think he could have won the '24 election had he been the candidate, and I think he could win the next election also.

The fact that (as he said in the video) he “Doesn’t consider himself a politician” is a huge plus.

It’s a bit sad that he’s starting to get old though. 60 seemed perfectly okay, 65 is a bit on the high end.

they also have to provide the additional labour of keeping hate speech off the platform in perpetuity.

The developers can choose to lock down and effectively disable discussions entirely if they want.

Steam simply provides devs a service, easy access to host a forum for their game w/o having to manage that separately. Using it is completely optional.
