So it sounds like zoning laws are the problem?

Oh, that all sounds great. I really was just curious about this specific case of using training money for buying tanks.

Well, the implication of the comic is that funds for police training go to police militarization. I’m asking if this actually happened, but like you suggest it’s probably more of a vibes thing.

Is there an example of this happening? Would the money not be earmarked?

Which branch should get their power?

I dunno, it could be similar. AI has this aura of being something that every business could make use of, even if they don’t have a concrete use case. I could see “X but with an AI” be a similar bubble to “X but on the web”. We’ll see.

I mean, it is different than crypto, but that’s an incredibly low bar to clear.

At least according to my All feed, this is unpopular on Lemmy.

Me when terrain physics was added to world of tanks:

The problem is replacing nuclear with renewables does nothing to combat climate change. We need to be reducing fossil fuels. At the very least, they should have phased out coal before nuclear. While france was busy reducing its dependence on coal, Germany remains the largest producer of coal in Europe.

oh, i’m dumb. thanks.

My captcha and chess move add up to more than 25 😢

It takes effort to set up a new app, so for now the path of least resistance is to stay on reddit. Once third party apps break, their users will have to set up a new app anyway, so might be willing to choose a fedi app instead of the official reddit app. But yeah, we’ll see.

I use Privacy Badger to block trackers, and uBlock to manually block especially annoying ads. Everything else is allowed. So if an ad isn’t obnoxious and doesn’t track, it gets through. It’s not perfect but I figure that’s a reasonable compromise.
