Fair enough. In the Elon one there are probably some people that would want to hear more. It was hard for me to come up with an example.

We shouldn't downvote the unpopular opinion, we should upvote it. It's counterintuitive but we're actually asking for unpopular opinions. I see a lot of truly interesting unpopular opinions in here that are getting downvoted and I'm not sure everyone is on the same page.

The "unpopular opinions" that should be downvoted are the opinions that aren't really unpopular opinions and are just trolling. You know them when you see them.

What are the "unpopular opinion" rules on Lemmy?

My original understanding from outside Lemmy is you should upvote the truly interesting unpopular opinions for visibility.

For example:

  • "I think potato chips are gross" - that is an unpopular opinion and I am truly interested in why you would say that...upvote.
  • "Elon Musk makes some good points" - not interesting at all and probably political bullshit trolling...no upvote and a downvote if enabled.

So what will the authorities in the Netherlands do in this situation? Put a ticket on it and then wait for the owner to move it? Tow it to an impound lot? Flip it and light it on fire?

Whatever size the vehicle, you can't block the tracks...

EDIT: I've been in this situation in streetcars in San Francisco and New Orleans. No emergency vehicles came, no super tow truck...the streetcar just waited and blocked traffic until the driver came back and moved their vehicle. I don't know what would have happened if the driver never came back, but nothing happened in the 20-30 minutes we waited.

Florida is purposefully trying to destroy it's own public school system. They make being a public school teacher so undesirable, and then complain about a "teacher shortage". Of course nobody wants to be a public school teacher in Florida. You can get fired for how you address someone?

I bet they'll do it in Waterfall too.

Nah B. This will be Extreme Agile XP with testing exclusively in Prod. Xitter will be the code repository.

It definitely made me want to like Earl Grey. It's just not my jam though. It even made me start trying all the different teas I could find because I wanted to be cultured enough to have a preferred tea. I even tried Lapsang Souchong which is basically barbecue tea.

Turns out tea is pretty easy to drink and I'm pretty basic. Oolong, black, or green are great.
