Not really. There is de-obfusication headers which They officially provide which can make decompiled source readable for the purpose of making mods, You're not allowed to redistribute any of the code.

Adobe suite is another big one. I know folks who have to use windows for Premier, Photoshop, illustrator ect. If Adobe ported their stuff to Linux, that would be a huge shift in the market

Detached homes are fine but people buying them need to actually pay their worth to society which they do not right now. It's a lifestyle that is subsidized by the dense cities as the sprawling infrastructure is not economically self sustainable. And it's ridiculous that in many places in North America the only thing that's legal to build is single family homes. It's a falsehood saying that's what most people want, when the reality is that's the only option on most of the land. We cannot continue to economically or environmentally support that as the majority form of housing, we need more missing middle density like townhomes, four -plexs etc. Not to mention the cars whether gas or electric will become unaffordable to the average person in the next 20 years

I wonder if the uploader did anything technically interesting to the video file to prevent it from being caught by content ID

I was looking hard for this video after after being reminded of a bygone era of this concept of Multimedia and hyperlinks/hypertext being the next big thing. I think this is wonderful optimistic look at a potential future for what the internet could have become as per the keen mind of Douglas Adams.

This video has some really neat clips of interviews, historical footage, and this fun ethereal vibe of having intelligent, agent driven predictive access to any piece of information you'd ever need.

I wonder what Douglas Adams would think of the current Internet and Tech-Scape.

 
 

Hey, fellow my new fellow /c/fuckcars Lemmy community! I finished watching the TV show "Baskets" around a year ago and couldn't help but feel a deep sense of soul-sucking depression when it came to its portrayal of car-centric suburbs. I wanted to reach out to you all and see if anyone else shared the same sentiments.

For those who haven't seen it, "Baskets" is a dark comedy-drama that follows the life of Chip Baskets, a failed professional clown. The show is primarily set in Bakersfield, California, a city enveloped in car-centric planning.

What adds an interesting layer to the show is the presence of the High-Speed rail project, which is portrayed as a backdrop throughout the series. This juxtaposition between the car-centric suburbs and the promise of a modern, efficient transportation system highlights the stark contrast between the old and new ways of living.

The constant presence of cars, dilapidated strip malls, and sprawling stroads in Bakersfield seems to symbolize a certain emptiness and lack of genuine human connection. The show really contrasts the American setting with vibrant and pedestrian friendly Paris (albeit stereotyped).

I'm curious to know if any of you had similar thoughts or interpretations while watching "Baskets." Did you also feel that the show used the suburbs and car-centric environments in a soul-sucking and depressing way? On the other hand did anyone get a vibe it was also making fun of Chip for not being able to drive?
