    I’m sure it does nothing, but every time DPD/other fucks up a delivery by failing to even ring the bell and says “we missed you”, I call up their customer service and waste their time complaining about the small amount of time allowed per package delivery.

    I ask for drivers to be allowed more time. It’s not entirely their fault (but some seemingly have no situational awareness).


  • In this context (IIRC) smart means “if this zip contains a single folder with contents, directly extract that folder, but if the zip contains files and/or folders, extract all that to a new folder named the same as the zip file”.

    Some people zip folders while some people zip the files in a folder. Smart extraction just handles both automatically.


  • Your take on climate change makes me more worried. Sure, I will probably be fine, but how many innocent people around the world will die until we’ve done enough to see the climate improving?

    How horrible is the world going to be to inhabit if the Gulf Stream collapses? Or other major climate disruptions occur?

    I don’t doubt the human race will survive, but why do we have to experience the pain before committing to fixing the problem?

    You’re right that robots aren’t going to be able to replace plumbers or electricians in traditional building projects.

    But why can’t we change how new buildings are built so the method better suits robots. I’m sure with current technology we could design a building that could be built entirely by robots.

    I don’t think it’ll happen because it will take a lot of time and money to develop such a holistic system, with no return on profit until it’s a complete system.
