Oh, distracted vs cars, I meant more about other cars making people think they need to focus, but an open road seems to make them think they donβt have to (and then overshooting a turn and flipping because they didnβt realize they were going into it 20mph faster than they usually did).

Breivika Eigedom should be charged for criminal negligence.
But they wonβt be, just like Austrian infrastructure companies werenβt after they refused to upgrade their cyber defenses (and basically told the Bundesheer to fuck off) and had to pay ransom to get their IT systems back from the russians.

Also the number of people using voice control for phones in the car _feels_ way lower than I would have expect it to be. But that I blame on Siri sucking hard as a voice assistantβ¦ π

Anecdotally, I see about maybe 1 in 10 in Vienna when walking about, and itβs usually just people messing about with phones at traffic light stops. Outside the city, Iβve seen more people do it while driving. I assume less traffic makes people feel like fewer cars = fewer chances of a crash?

But at least, and to me that is already an unexpected win, the discussions are slowly starting across the whole world. More of those means more awareness means higher chances of people actually being open to change. π

The big issue is, obviously, that it is very tedious and expensive work, that would often need correcting the ways current societies work (for example fixing corrupted justice systems in many countries). And no one in charge of anything more than a coffee shop wants to actually do the work needed.

Agree.
I think cruelty is, outside of antisocial personality disorders, more a case of environment pressure and opportunity. Penalizing a couple of very obvious cases would be enough, provided society also invests into resolving the situations that made people lean into cruelty in the first place.
13.08.2025 13:16 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0
The part that no one likes to talk about is how to get rid of cruel people. Because no one wants to look cruel themselves.
Until society makes it clear that such behavior is unacceptable and trains sociopaths to act nice, nothing will change.
