The iPhone thing is probably true when you read the pinned comment from Rick himself below the video:

My wife Lene and I shot this video on a phone in Denmark, in a forest beside a beautiful beach. The song in essence is about how there is so much technology out there pulling and pushing us in our daily lives, that we need to remain human in this fast moving world. The idea of making a video simply, somewhere beautiful and real like this resonates with me, and I hope it does with you too! Rick x

I’d post the full complaint to a site like Pastebin, then share the link with them.

Though I wonder: if they limit the text to 250 characters, do they even care to read the complaints at all…

This is the exact reason I set up my phone to go on ring mode at full blast whenever someone truly important calls me. I know they’d only call me whenever it’s important (because I’ve told them beforehand that this happens, so they text if it’s not important).

Even when I keep my distance, it’s happened to me plenty of times that I gotta press the brakes after the EV in front of me coasts for a while when I do the same. Non-EV’s don’t have the same issue since they coast down at the same speed as me. Not cool to assume that everyone drives like a Dodge RAM owner.

For me the worst part about Tesla’s (and other electric cars in general) is when you’re driving behind one and they have the regenerative breaking set to maximum. When they release the gas and start coasting, they decelerate a lot quicker than I do when I start coasting behind them which forces me to brake constantly.

Fines like these should be exponential in some way, that way they can’t keep getting away with it.

3 and 4. Perfect health is a no brainer and lets you enjoy life for way longer. And the natural talent one would let you easily learn the skills to come close to perfect memory and to know every language, giving you the benefits of 1 and 2 as well.

While I think a counter per instance would be possible, it would be way too easy to mess around with a “total” karma spread across all instances. All you’d have to do is set up your own instance, and give yourself a lot of karma there.

I do agree that a karma counter could be a nice indication of someone’s activity, but I wonder if that’s the best metric we could come up with to keep spammers/bots at bay.

Even better when you already like the old song and the hardstyle remix takes it to another level of awesome

For sure. I hereby consider Reddit to have died, along with the 3rd party app that I used to view it with. (RIP Boost, you will be missed 🚀)

From now on, only Lemmy exists to me and I’ve fully replaced it, partially out of spite.
