And the incredibly large vehicles can be easily seen and accommodated for. One exception does not make the idea bad and besides, for many of the oversized ramps found in downtowns one issue is that trucks of that size shouldn’t even be allowed there anyways. North Americans are just used to the idea of shoving an 18-wheeler or whatever into areas that should never be in but it’s not good just because it’s normal.
That’s not really what you did and not what I was talking about? Like at all? Brother, your low literacy level ain’t gunna be my problem, go figure that out on your own time.
That’s not humour and you’re just embarrassed for being called out.
Yea holy shit, it’s insane that people will try to merge like that. And some on-ramps are quite short, which I support because it’s less land wasted, so you really gotta boogey.
Ok but that’s pretty much what you’re saying. The plants are linked to increases in pollution and you’re like “well just because they always are and no one is stopping them doesn’t mean they need to be!”
Unfortunately they don’t work. I used one for a time, and basically took even my slowest, most gentle start in order to register as safe acceleration. Stopping was a disaster where most of the time I needed to just put it in neutral and coast to a stop or risk watching my rates go up. Had so many “yellow” trips, it was insane. And then if someone were really worried I can actually see it being distracting where they might now have to consider a rate increase when slowing down to avoid an accident which, given how bad a decision making people are already, doesn’t seem like a particularly good idea.
I drive a BRZ, and I think the app used the accelerometer in the phone, so maybe it was calibrated for a big soft thing and just assumed that anything I did was street racing.
For context, I’m the kinda person to stop at all stop signs, even the one at the end of a drive-thru at 3am where I can see for miles all around me. I keep following distances so well that I actually don’t use my brakes enough and they get rustier quicker than normal, especially since I drive so rarely these days. These apps would punish me for my driving and reward people in large SUVs who are more likely to turn into a pedestrian than anything(but a reasonable speed!).
Except you’re missing the reality of the situation for the sake of theory. They pointed out quite rightly that these new data centres are not using clean energy and are, in fact, propping up old fossil-fuel plants which should be closing to make way for clean energy.
They could choose a lot of stuff, but since it’s a choice and not forced upon them they are jumping on the quicker options. Why wait for a bunch of renewable sources to be built when you could simply use the existing, shitty stuff and get your shit built quicker? Corporations don’t give a fuck about anything but money and they will let people fucking die if it would save them even 0.01% of their annual revenue. It wouldn’t the first or even the thousandth time it’s happened.
You brought it up! Unless you’re going through a multiple personality disorder thing the guy I replied to is you talking about his reasons.
Why make up a conspiracy when they’re telling you to your face what they’re doing? Trump literally read outloud a note passed to him in a meeting, he has no filter left and he’s never been subtle.
Ya’ll please just deal with the issues in front of you. There’s no secret motivation that will change and then make the problem go away, the problem is just what it is and needs to be dealt with.
ICE is doing a bunch of illegal stuff and Democrats are like “surely if we make a law and ask them to stop slowdown nicely…”
That’s the best part. I don’t really do a lot here in Canasa but I a) actually vote for who aligns with my beliefs and b) stay out the fucking way when positive change is mildly uncomfortable for me but someone’s doing the hard work to make it happen. Meanwhile there are people all over the internet who will actively try to dissuade people from doing thing A because it’s scary for them.
The general population barely has to do anything, and for being so conflict avoident they sure like to allow things to get so bad that much worse conflict becomes inevitable.
For which part? It’s pretty much all there.
Capitalism: “The customers get decide what suceeds and what fails!”
Capitalism: “What a load of horseshit, and they’ll eat it up, too, the idiots.”
Always incredible to me how staunch supporters of capitalism are routinely ok with handouts to the tune of billions of dollars when they aren’t getting any real benefit. They’re even the type say they don’t negotiate with terrorists and I guess they’re right, since they just immediately fall to their demands.
You shouldn’t be in charge of anything. That’s called being complacent and leads to even worse problems.
“Which country” now THAT’S rage bait.
How so?
Always gotta be some jackass who “totally supports progress” but always seems to find a reason why it can’t happen just yet.
Trump has been saying that life would be better for Greenlanders under the US, and Bernie is pointing out that it absolutely would not be. The US is garbage and can’t even take care of what it already has, let alone a place it only wants so it can feel better about itself.
Tens of millions of people fell in line behind him. The US was already completely fucked and there’s no hiding from that. Trump didn’t do anything people weren’t itching to hear and to latch onto.
The final straw. After that maybe the ultimate straw! Heaven help us if we ever get to the terminal straw, that one’s a doozey!
Alright fine, I’ll add this just for you: You were trying to find some conspiratorial justification for why Trump invaded and I said that you don’t need to look that deep because the fact is that he attacked another nation. You then came back with “it doesn’t matter because he’s doing bad things” which is pretty much what I said. Then you thought I was MAGA even though I said something very clearly anti-Trump.
This isn’t difficult.
