Paying focused attention to your senses, surroundings, and thoughts. Unlike meditation that tries to change how you feel, mindfulness is letting excess thoughts go so you can focus on what happening right now.
Helps when things feel overwhelming and is the only meditation my ADHD self can do.
Aggressive dogs on leashes often pull themselves free or drag their owner close enough to start violence with other people and other dogs. Well behaved dogs tend to avoid confrontation.
It isn't saying that any dog couldn't be suddenly aggressive any more than saying any random person couldn't suddenly become aggressive. Odds are higher that a dog who is frequently aggressive but on a leash getting close enough to bite or scratch than a well behaved one not on a leash.
While I am perfectly fine with the leash laws being enforced, not being on a leash when well behaved isn't asking for trouble. Leash laws are there to address less well behaved dogs and the fact that it is impossible to know how well behaved a dog is the first time you meet them.
Motocross for long distance trips!
People should queue up when there are more people than things to interact with, and generally they do. I don't care if someone lets someone with one thing ahead of everyone else as long as it still moves along. I would hate for ad hoc queuing to have enforced rules because doing it ad hoc is better overall and adding rules would make it more cumbersome.
It is required to have dogs on leashes here, but sometimes I see one off leash and if it is well behaved I don't care. They should be on a leash as a best practice, but leashed dogs that are aggressive are worse than a well behaved but unleashed dog so I let the unleashed and behaved ones slide. The unleashed and aggressive ones are the worst.
There are a lot of things where it is best to do something a certain way in general, but when it doesn't directly address the underlying issue or there are exceptions then I don't get upset. Like people should use crosswalks properly, unless there is no traffic and they have no real benefit...
Pretty sure that it is one of those things that does happen rarely, but people tend to assume everyone is doing it as an excuse to dismiss the homeless problem.
If I understand and agree with the reason for being upset, yes.
Like I agree with banning peanuts on airlines because of allergy issues and think people who are upset about that are wrong so their being upset doesn't impact me at all. Although I am not able to have an abortion, seeing people being upset that their rights are being denied does make me upset as well.
Then there are tons of things I either can't relate to or understand and I don't really care either way. There are lots of things I think people should choose to do voluntarily, but don't want it to be required. I don't get upset when I see people not do those things, even though they really should.
If I have seen it less than about a hundred times, it is a 5. I will have some key words that let me describe it successfully to other people, but I can't actually picture it.
If I have seen it fairly regularly for a few years, or haven't seen it for several years, probably a 4.
If I have seen it for decades, it might be a 3. Apples, which I see at least every few days is a 3.
Or they have dry hands that catch on stuff like microfiber cloths. I hate touching them when my hands are dry and rough from doing yard work or woodworking, but no issue when they aren't.
When the law passes, the owners of proprietary functionality will adapt their licensing to meet the requirrments or go out of business when everyone stops using them.
None of those things will be affected because this isn't about making games open source. It is about making games that have a design that allows them to potentially function indefinitely instead of allowing the companies to design them with planned obsolescence like tying single player games to server verification.
This means, too, that Tesla hasn’t hit the milestone Musk promised back in January, when he told investors that the company would launch “unsupervised full self-driving as a paid service in Austin in June … no one in the car.”
Back in 2015 he claimed fully autonomous driving would be available in 3 years (by 2018) and since then it was always a year or two away. Why does anyone believe anything he says?
"From a technology standpoint, Tesla will have a car that can do full autonomy in about three years, maybe a bit sooner."

There is one user from another instance that I have Blocked, but their comments still show up in posts. I have tried unblocking and blocking them again, and their posts are hidden on their profile when blocked. Examples below are seeing their comment, clicking on their name, and seeing that they are already blocked. This is the only user where this is the case, and I've blocked their name and instance (not lemmy.world) but can provide it on request.
Now I'm sad.
