Tourist cities should have hotel rooms by the hour that are actually clean when you just want to take a nap.

Retirement should be 45

I think there should be pedestrian, bike routes separate from cars, like storefronts should face both ways, and the intersections with signals, but where practical should have bridges for the walkers, so they don't have to deal with the cars.

I also really want replicator tech, want to be able to use any input to get basically any output, at least in terms of materials. Throw in the trash, it is sorted into its component elements (safely) and then those can be combined to make clean water, salt water, building materials, whatever.

I want also a floor and walls that eat the dirt, and clothing fabric that can cool even in humidity.

Tie more positive things to the federal minimum wage, for example tax brackets and retirement fund contribution limits. They go up every single year, so the government will either have to keep raising the minimum wage or go on the record to justify why the ratio is wrong.

Also, the “raise it to $15 per hour” minimum wage debate has been going on for so long that the $15 is now outdated. If the debate started again today, the number would realistically be closer to $25-$30 per hour.

And if you just got upset because you’re making $30 per hour and don’t want to be equated with minimum wage, then maybe you need to consider how much you could be making if minimum wage were higher. Here’s a hint: You’d be making much more than $30 per hour.

Craggles™

Sandles for the crag allowing belayers to quickly slip them on and off. Toe area capped with light armour and good rubber soles for scrambling. Of course they have accessory loops for quickly attaching to bags for multi-pitch, Gone are the days of sore feet from belaying in climbing shoes, toe damage from catching a whip in flip-flops, or holding up your climbing partner by trying to find your approach shoes and a spot to put them on.

They have these in Amsterdam. Each room comes with its own maid.

git send-xmpp & darcs send --xmpp for realtime, decentralized collaborative patches. The extensibility could fix the UX issues with patches by email & wouldn’t require accounts on someone else’s server or using the severely flawed ‘pull request’ model.

Mozilla should make a search engine.

I know they will lose all that sweet google revenue.

Governments should support them to encourage a free and open internet, if Google wins a complete monopoly we all lose.

We don't have to go far back to see an example of what a browser monopoly will look like, just look at IE6...

German take: Parking on the side of the road and on sidewalks should just be banned.
Its legality is based on a single court case from the 1950's where a judge decided that it should be a legal use of public space, because it's necessary and useful for motorizing the country. The justfication is obsolete. It's not enshrined in any laws. The traffic law specifically forbids it, with exceptions.
Yet it's practiced everywhere and even where parked cars block sidewalks, police simply don't enforce the law.

"But where should I park?"
You should have thought of that before buying a car.

"But what about rural areas where you need a car to live?"
No problem here, just park it on your turnip field.

There's this suit of useful little programs called Microsoft PowerToys, I always thought it should include a tool that allows you to quickly swap the contents of monitors around in multi-monitor setups.

e.g. move all open windows from monitor 1 to monitor 2 and vice-versa, while retaining their (approximate) position.

This may already be a thing, I haven't really checked.

I'd like citizenship swapping services. Some people just don't wanna stay stuck to their country of birth, especially if renouncing that citizenship is literally impossible (I'm Moroccan, and according to Moroccan law I'll stay that way to my own detriment, even if I get another citizenship which thankfully is possible).

All gamepads that have it having a BAXY control scheme. That's B right, A down, X left, Y up for the buttons on the right side of the gamepad. I can't tell you how many times I have pressed the wrong buttons when playing certain games all because the 3rd party switch controller I have uses ABYX or because I don't remember where the symbols are on a PlayStation controller. Dreamcast and original Xbox had their shit together with how they used BAXY for their controllers and to this day I may shit on Microsoft, but not on the BAXY control scheme on their gamepads.

[-] everett@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago

What makes BAXY the right way?

[-] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

Purely preference. That, and I've spent about a million times more time on an xbox360 than just about any other console in existence, so it's what I personally consider the best way. If you or someone you know uses any other way, that's your deal, but I just can't retrain myself to like any other format.

Airport lounges where the seats are just like on the plane, with little spots for luggage to the side. Then people just get up and board in order, putting your stuff right above or in front of you. If you're late, you board last. No more airline rat race.

[-] ma11en@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Why do people care when they get on a plane?
