Scalie crowd.

come to mind with more recently over-hyped technologies

Major brands were not pushing those technologies on consumers. It was b2b at best.

City busses usually go 30km/h, up to 50 on longer stretches.

The ones in Seattle will take the freeway depending on the route. So that’s 100kph.

Considering city buses don’t typically have any restraints and in fact will have half of the passengers standing up if it’s full, how is this any worse?

I wouldn’t say it’s that bad. At least not where I live.

Mostly I see completely half-assed attempts at walkable infrastructure such as:

• Sidewalks that just end
• Bike lanes that say “lane ends, merge with traffic” on a 45mph (72km/h) road right before an underpass with no shoulder.
• Crosswalks only ever mile or so, so you either have to walk a mile out of your way, or get yelled at for “jaywalking.”
• Bike lockup outside a furniture store that’s surrounded by 10 acres of parking lot where the nearest residence is like 10 miles away.
• 3ft wide lanes with person figures painted on them on the side of the road because a white line is enough to protect pedestrians.
• 3ft wide bike lanes on the inside curve of an uphill 45mph road with sharp turns and a steep concrete embankment on the side.

You get 8 seconds to cross eight lanes of traffic.

You got a subscriber! Looking forward to more.

For me it was a random fruit stand in Rome.

This feel more like classic linkjacking than AI crawling.

No FiM++?

Trust me, there’s someone just starting out, and you got them 90% of the way there, and they will humbly submit a fix for your code with zero judgement.

That someone is me, because I have no idea what I’m doing.

There are 52 of these

I think the creators of Bioshock were correct to base the plot on seaslugs.

Oyster stuffing has entered the chat.

Just like following turn by turn vs reading a map

God dammit. They’re actually a great service. They make money. WHY IS THIS NECESSARY?

I had a dude once tailgate me and honk at me for going 25 in a 35. I had just pulled out of a parking lot and was getting my bearings. It was a two-lane road. I was in the right lane. He finally went around me, and I gave him a dorky wave.

30 seconds later, he was in front of me at the next red light, so to be a dick, I honked at him.

Dude spent the next 10 minutes in front of me going like 10 miles per hour. I wasn’t in a hurry, so I thought I’d just let that play out. Later, when I switched lanes to avoid a turn-only, he switched immediately after. I realized that he intended to stay in front of me driving slowly presumably until I got home.

So I eventually faked him out and lost him.

Dude wasted 10 minutes of his life proving some kind of insane point. He had a young daughter in the back seat. I feel bad for her.

To shreds you say

My uncle has a friend who cracked the code and discovered you can get free shit by buying it on a credit card and then disputing the charge.

So it works about as well as that.
