Umm that's not exactly what they're saying.

It would update a 27-year-old law to create three new classes of electric bikes based on the type of motor and how fast they can go.

Hell the ACTUAL statute is just defining what a e-bike is. You can see it here: https://olis.oregonlegislature.gov/liz/2024r1/Measures/Overview/HB4103

It does say class 1 can be operated by anyone, but 2 and 3 can be limited to 16 and older. Yes that's more restrictive then the past, but really it's "Defining the e-bikes" because they were poorly defined based on an almost hundred year old law.

That being said it does limit the top speed of an e-bike to 28 miles an hour, I assume above that it's now a motocycle, and honestly, that might be a good thing, because at that speed they no will come out of no where (hell at 20-30 miles an hour they still will)

This is hardly as bad as the title.

Jesus Christ.

Remember when Google's Motto was "Don't be Evil" It was supposed to be a jab at Microsoft, but it feels like every year tech companies find news ways to just be fucking evil.

PS. Google kind of fails to live up to that motto too, I don't even know if it's still an official motto.

Thought I'd share my video this month with Lemmy again, Hope everyone has a great month.

The board that allowed him to present and push the idea forward is still there. The power structure that wanted this change is still there.

Riccitello is gone (and fuck him for many reasons) but Unity isn't changed, it just has a different face.

As someone said in the comments, they really don't make (promote) videos like this any more.

It's just a beautiful video, someone performed something on stage, the crowd clearly loved it. It required real talent, and wasn't just done to get Youtube views in a weekly/daily video posts trying only to drive engagement.

A shame that Youtube's best days are long behind it. Yes the beast is bigger than ever and has so many more people, but it's not quality rising to the top.

About half the people who completely demonize this will still call for some form of it in America. "We won't abuse it unlike them." "We need to stomp out hate speech" "Think of the children".

This is disgusting no matter what, and even if you somehow think a current government won't abuse this, what happens when someone else runs the government?

It should be VIM

No one comes back from VIM.

Those who say they have are dirty liars... or have it paused in the background.

Legally they had been served, so there was nothing they could do about it.

Somehow I doubt this.

Maybe it's true but legally I know in California you are required to do your briefs in 12 point font. While that's briefs, I would imagine evidence would be under the same banner. It definitely WOULD be illegal to do it in 1 pt font or intentionally making it unreadable. I would imagine if the other side wanted to make it an issue they could back to the judge and he's probably have it out with you.

Maybe the lawyers wisely replaced your malicious compliance with correct sized print with out telling you, maybe the other side didn't care.

Considering this is 16 minutes old and a currently happen situation, it's very likely BBC doesn't keep that information on hand, and likely has to go source that.

I doubt the soldiers put out a press release as the first thing they did detailing the ideological differences, and more focused on consolidating power right now.

If there's one thing that has proven to stop protests, it's laws.

Man, I thought when we left Reddit shit was going to change?

First off, SHE didn't write all the code, she led a team (And probably wrote a decent chunk herself). It wasn't by hand it was on computers, no one writes computer code by hand, that's just blatantly a myth, even punch cards were normally done BY the computer, not "by hand".

Also something I've questioned before is if that's really "The source code" and not maybe 11 copies (There's 11 binders there) Though most reports from reputable sources say that's "Listings". AKA that's the logging, not the code itself. The code itself may be printed out but would be kept on Punch cards (Again printed by the computer, not by hand). And the final form was actually a rope. (no really)

The thing is the story of Margaret Hamilton (And in fact most programmers of the time) is incredible enough. But when you blatantly lie like this it actually diminishes her accomplishment because it's obviously false and people will tear it down or disbelieve it because it's blatant misinformation.

This is why I left Next Fucking Level, because it became misinformation and karma whoring. It became about the "Story" rather than the actual person/skill/talent/figure. But on Reddit the reason was because people wanted Karma. Shouldn't we have left the basement tier BS and lying behind as well?

That's a great explanation. I love the idea of having an "internet historian" (other than the actual internet historian, who really doesn't talk the origins of the internet). I guess there's the meme databases but still, this is a great read.
