I think making a genuine mistake is fine if it contributes to discussion, especially if it's later edited to reflect the fact that it was mistaken.

Edit: I meant this as a jokeeeee omg /s
In my experience, this community is really sensitive to anything even remotely pro-car, so jokes need to be marked more clearly than multiple exclamation marks! Haha
I like how this is written with men as the target audience because only men would be this depraved
I got the base game for free a few years ago.
I played and enjoyed it so much I bought the Platinum edition...on Steam, because it was cheaper there. (And other reasons, but this was the biggest one)
One of the few games I actually went out and bought thanks to Epic. I feel slightly bad for not buying from them, lol
the network that allows bank transfers to happen nigh instantaneously.
Ah, so I guess Canada doesn't use them! Haha
Scent is how dogs (generally) primarily experience the world.
They don't do this with other dog faces.
Because dogs don't use their faces the same way that humans do
These same regions don't activate in dogs to anything like the same degree when they see other dogs.
Probably because they use scent more than sight for being in tune with their own species.
LMAO
As someone who spends more free time with electronics and other more expensive stuff than newspapers, this would cause a big rift between me and my dog.
I grew up in Canada.
My high school English teacher let us choose books to write essays on from a selection of a dozen or so that he was intimately familiar with and could tell whether someone was BSing or not.
I don't remember all of them, but I chose The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I also remember reading 1984 in his class.
Thank you for sharing; great points.
To me, this sounds a bit like crosswalks/intersections are the unsafe part rather than sidewalks.
It's a rule of thumb for cyclists to walk their bikes across intersections (even on bike paths/trails!), turning cyclists into pedestrians. Not that pedestrians are particularly safe where I live, but that would address part of the issue here.
Sidewalks where I live tend to have boulevards (grass off to either side for cyclists to pull onto), which may be different than the environments where these studies took place (I'm picturing buildings on one side and roads on the other).
"This"
Not your post, but anything that's just an upvote in the form of a comment.
Also anything that's egregious misinformation or bad faith posting.
Or anything that's just spammy or bonkers crazy. I've blocked more people in my 1-ish year on Lemmy than I had in something like 10 years on Reddit...it definitely feels like Lemmy is the haven for Reddit refugees, including those who got banned for not really understanding how to engage in this type of space.
Also, any post that really doesn't fit the community. Like NoStupidQuestions posts that aren't questions or are really just AITA or DAE (social validation) posts in disguise.
I know that sounds like a lot, but for the most part, I don't vote on things. I upvote most posts that are cool/interesting enough to get me to go to the source or read through the comments, as well as any good comments. And pretty much any comment that engages in discussion with my own comments without being annoying or rude, lol
