Tldr but I'm going to guess the reason (along with the huge number of bugs windows seems to be getting right now) is their current strategy of vibe coding slop into everything
Thanks! Given the system the US uses for party primaries and the current climate of public manipulation through captured mainstream and social media, aren't those things already problems? Would it be any worse than it already is?
I think the reduction would be slight versus the reduction realised by improving the quality of existing human operated public transport like buses and trains. A mass transit system relying on individual automated cars is a tech bro brain fart.
Yeah it would be better still if we we had actual improved public transport systems for carry more people at once rather than automated personal vehicles, even if those automated personal vehicles are shared like taxis. The cost of automation and requirement for removing all other vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists and animals from the roads is immediately removed and the benefits obtained by reducing traffic is immediately realised just by using human driven buses and trains.
Why would it reduce traffic volume? The cars that are on the road are the ones that are currently in their hour of driving that day, it would more reduce the size of parking lots and parking space allocation, or at least move it to charging hubs away from where people congregate.
ELI5 does this even matter? The state legislators are elected by the people, why does it matter if those reps are electing the federal senators or the the people directly? Its not like you're going to get a bunch of lords nominated arbitrarily by the ~~King~~President?
In some places the nice beaches have been privatised by local hotels or clubs so you gotta pay them to sit on the beach or go sit somewhere less nice. Coming from Western Australia where we have the nicest beaches in the world (all free), I take this concept of "owning beach space" as a personal affront.
That's not necessarily an autism thing, a lot of people just don't know when to shut the fuck up and let someone add to the conversation.
Sadly telling someone with baby brain that they are stupid and have a baby brain isn't going to help them change. Baby's don't learn like that. We need to sing them songs and make learning fun until they have a leap and want to learn more all by themselves. Also cutting their screen time to zero until their brains develop well into toddler brain is supposed to be super beneficial.
Jesus fuck can these arseholes just get raptured already ..
Looks like a militant terrorist organisation to me, should be arresting them
There's a bunch of sealed underwater data centres and they found reliability went right up (see Project Natick). Underwater has the benefit of actually having cooling though ..
