@sorenbowie.bsky.social you might be way past caring, but Cracked hasn’t shown up in my timeline for years and the first time it has done since I don’t know when it looks like it was written by AI.

Trolley problem solution.

"Slip the switch" by flipping it while the trolley's front wheels have passed through, but before the back wheels do. This will cause a controlled derailment bringing the trolley to a safe halt.
