Honestly all political discussions here are so cursed. Its just people yelling. Fuck that.

My friend is a locksmith and if your area is not overcrowded and you can keep a good company running it’s really good. People pay a lot of money to get back into their car at 6am but also every building needs a lock and the locks need maintenance.

It’s a real business though as the trade aspect of cutting a key or opening a door isn’t difficult at all. The challenge is running business, accounting and all the certifications and associated protocols. With all that said, it can get crowded real fast so this all only works if you’re one of 3 locksmiths in town at most.

Electrician 100% and it’s really fun too.

I’m a software dev and that would be my backup trade as it scratches every intellectual itch if you work on more complex setups as well as mechanical fulfillment as you actually see your work published. The community is huge and the demand will almost never decline. The only downside that it’s not very mobile but still much more mobile than most other trades.

I think its very likely we’ll see a fit for you in our lifetimes. It’ll be affordable too tho probably still a bit clunky due to battery tech limitations.

For vision the possibilities are endless but here the dangers are as well. Obviously the instinct will be augment vision with artificial objects and thats such a slippery slope. Tho I’d just take auto polarized lenses that are comfortable first.

Exoskeletons are almost viable already. Climbing a major hike without breaking a sweat is a real dream for outdoors people

Though number one for me would be personal temperature control. Imagine having the perfect ac everywhere you go. Somehow scifi ignores this idea but that would change everything.

Also cybernetic eyes obviously.

Yeah this quote really pivoted my life to a strong cosmopolitan view. By detaching ideas from people you can pick and choose and design your own philosophy and direction without attachment to exact people or inherited culture.

This is quite liberating mentally as solving cognitive dissonance is very expensive and theres an incredible amount of cognitive dissonance required to follow people who are often flawed or have conflicting ideas attached to them.

I think it applies outside of politics as well like art and even business.

That’s much more wholesome!

“Don’t follow people - follow ideas” which seems more relevant today than ever before it seems.

As in have low expectations of everything?

Instant pre-order for me. Steamdeck has been by far my favorite gaming console but TV performance is only good for low requirement games and I’d love the same experience for proper 4k gaming even if it’s medium fidelity.

you’re comparing apples to oranges. Lemmy is for discussions pixelfed is for posting photos.

Andy Yen really dropped the ball especially because he hasn’t done anything significant to really establish trust in his leadership and the biggest thing he does is tank the company image.

Dude had the easiest job in the world — shut up, look smart, pretend to care and delegate. Instead, he jumps head first into left vs right of US politics on Twitter of all places 🤡

I think it’s a good nudge tbh. Stairs are proven again and again to be an incredibly healthy workout given that you don’t have issues with your knees.

I just came back from Japan and 20k steps a day and hundreds of stairs for a month really put me in shape and made me realize how important good shoes are lol
