The loss of communications was expected, because a hill stood between Ingenuity and Perseverance, which acts as a relay between the drone and Earth.

Not as cool as the headline makes it out to be.

Lemmies? Sublems? Underlems?

Communities don’t have the same ring to it, I agree.

Use VPN, switch country to turkey, pay 20 bucks for a year of youtube premium. It sucks, but 20 bucks is more affordable than the 10 per month they are asking.

Posting a comment takes 20 seconds, I’ve seen a lot of duplicate comments from users, wondering if they are spamming the post button because it’s taking so long.

Good, I completely agree with this. Maybe once they hit 80, every year.

You can request all your reddit data from reddit. It takes a week or two, but then you’ll get a link where you can download a zip file with a bunch of CSVs with all your comments, posts, up votes, everything.

While I totally agree, and myself when or if I hit 80 probably wont be driving around, it will still happen. There will be stubborn 80 and above that will continue to want to drive for their independence. And if they want to, they should absolutely be tested.

Honestly tho, lets get real here for a minute. This is a large 1 ton machine that could easily kill someone. Shouldn’t we have mandatory tests eventually for everyone? I mean, after driving for 25 years or so, there have been rules that have changed, safety measures that are different than when I took drivers ed, and lets face it, my skills are nearly as sharp as they used to be due to complacency we all experience.

Wouldn’t that idea lower the amount of traffic fatalities a bit? I could see it turn into a cash grab and there would be strong opposition. I don’t know, maybe I’m just stoned.

My local area sub is still pretty active, but I did notice that in the other subreddit the comments section is a lot more sparse.

Either one really. I’ve never had a specific pocket for anything. Are people really this organized? Am I the heathen?
