You would effectively be living in a microwave if it provided enough power for everything

Government imposed censorship is exactly what the 1st amendment protects against, right?

I love how light is last on the list

I don’t think whether they’re driving or not is a meaningful distinction at this level, people should be expected to sit in any of the seats of a car, so I’m making the fairly safe assumption they put dummies in various different seating arrangements.

The stats apparently originate from the US government, so it’s going to be a pretty big sample size that should average out any differences in seating position.

I don’t think there are really any conclusive after stats as the product was only introduced to the market a couple of years ago, I guess manufacturers need to buy these and then use them in their in-progress designs. Cars on the market that have used these dummies during design are probably only new designs sold in the past year or so.

I also can’t seem to find it with a quick search, but I vaguely remember reading about this when it was new a couple of years ago, and there’s a correlation with male safety improving with advances in the crash test process that aren’t reflected equivalently with women’s safety. But maybe take that with a pinch of salt unless you can actually find the source

I was gonna say why would a robot be a bigot, but then I remembered Elon musk is probably paying someone to work on exactly that

Well if we’re going to unnecessarily inconvenience a group of people, I think a national 5mph limit would have a better effect

Crash test dummies test the impact of vehicle accidents on human bodies. While more men than women are injured in vehicle accidents, they are more frequently involved in them in the first place. Women are 17% more likely than men to die in the event of a car crash, based on university studies in the US, and 73% more likely to sustain serious injuries in a front-end collision (Invisible Women, p186). In the world of crash test dummies, ‘human body’ has really meant ‘male body’; the first anatomically correct female crash test dummy was only created in 2022.

Before intervention

17% more dead women than men

73% more injured women than men

When women are in fewer crashes overall

I hope the “water” is red wine for improved flavour

I had no idea this was a thing!

Big fan of LMNC, so I’ve immediately gone and bought it, looks fun though

Anyone have the non paywalled content? My usual archive.ph approach isn’t cutting it

A lot of the response I’ve seen to this post has been “this was unnecessarily complicated”.

This makes me incredibly sad.

Who the hell is reading a tinkerer blog and complaining about an elaborate hack?

It’s like going to a book club and complaining the story isn’t boring enough.

I love this kind of explorative reverse engineering bodge job stuff the best of any kind of engineering tbh

I’m either about to get a side quest or into a boss battle

I mean there will be customers for those products, I just don’t get why they’re leaving the mass appeal demographic on the table

Oh there’s a set of these memes?

Excellent stuff, I eagerly await the next

This is intriguing, how do you go about this? Is there a channel posting this somewhere?
