Sadly the extra extra bonus doesn't get collapsed on all mobile clients!

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 2 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

Is it still collapsed the first time and it just uncollapses too soon along with the first button press, or does it never get collapsed at all?

Either way it's a fun little test that doesn't ruin anything... this time, so I'm glad to learn about it:-D.

Thank you for the feedback on how it looks differently to you than to me, that's neat.

[–] QueenMidna@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

This is what it looks like to me. Still a fun surprise but I wanted to warn you about it lest you come to rely on it

This image I'm sure is burned into all of our brains :-)

This is why everyone hates moral philosophy professors, Chidi

Of course. But I would do it for the love of the game, not a paycheck.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 9 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Nah .... I just tie people to rails for the fun of it ... now turn around and put your hands behind your back

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 6 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I hope you also have a thin handlebar mustache that you twirl while cackling or the experience would be ruined.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

No I don't .... but you can also turn around and put your hands behind your back

you are an economist. eliminating zoning laws and HOAs would make construction of houses cheaper, saving lots of people lots of money, but the construction companies would be less profitable. do you argue in favor of unnecessarily complex building codes sothat the company stays profitable at the expense of the population?

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

I've never seen an economist argue is favor of non-safety related building codes. Ever.

That depends. How much is the population offering me to advocate in favor of them, and how much are the construction companies offering?

[–] The_v@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

Gotta add on another level.

Zoning laws and HOA's give larger construction companies a significant competitive advantage over smaller companies. This limits competition and drives up the cost while also degrading the average quality of the construction as the larger companies seek to maximize profits.

Whoever is forcing this dilemma is doing something wrong. Sue them for a fat payday... or chose violence.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 4 points 11 hours ago

Nah that's techbro employees.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 3 points 11 hours ago

Are they evil ppl?

Then yes.

[–] Venat0r@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

nah, you doctor footage of people on the rails and stimulate the scenario instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sl5KJ69qiA

You could pull the lever and watch the trolley crash trying to make it through that tight S-bend.
