You could solve that with a tech and enforcement solution pretty easily. Specially encoded GPS units, numberplate recognition and eyewatering fines for anyone caught doing it.

Id like to think that AI will also be used to SOLVE some of our biggest problems.

(NOW YES IT WOULD BE A PRIVACY NIGHTMARE) But I've posited before that instead of traffic lights being on timers and speed limits being fixed if every car had a gps navigation system and a QI code on the roof, with recognition cameras on light poles and intersections and an AI that was free to adjust the speed limits, lights and send route suggestions to the gps units in order to promote optimal flow that we could all save time, fuel (or battery) and therefore emisions.

Im of this thinking.

I leave them there until I stop thinking about their passing on a regular basis, then I remove the contact.

Id like to think they dont want me going about my business during the day and just randomly get reminded "Hey! incase you forgot, Josh is dead" while Im trying to call Joselyn about mundane work shit.

As a massive car enthusiast ChatGPT is a fucking GODSEND now that Google is completely shit.

I wanted to know what model of transmission was in a car, hours of googling only returned me link after link after link of gearboxes to buy, parts for gearboxes to buy all like 2000 - 2004 make and model. Now for those who dont know, gearboxes are often internally the same with different casings for different manufacturers or use cases, so "How much horsepower can a make and model gearbox support" is a waste of time but "How much power can an Aisin A340e support" gets you the right info.

I asked Chatgpt, and yep. Thats the one.

Drag car...

Tens of thousands of dollars for 3 or 4 trips to the track a year.

And I'm itching to build another.

I work with too many people who insist on giving me the smartarse answer to EVERY fucking question.

Every day I have to ask every station "Do you need any assistance today?" And "Do you have enough work to fill your shift?" And every day "YEah yOu cAn WaSh mY cAr! HehEheHe" and "yEaH iF I geT thrOugH thIs I'lL jUsT tAKe a nAp!"

And every month we have to do a drivers licence check and every damn month the same people "wHaT lIcEnCe!?!"

Fuck cunt, grow up. I hate doing this shit as much as you hate being asked, why are you making it take twice as long!?!

Gym, especially things with group classes are great because even if the meeting other people part doesnt work you still get something out of it.

always has been

Mostly jelly wresting, pillow fights, wet t-shirt contests and bikini carwashes I imagine.

Dont act like this didnt happen on Reddit, serious discussion in spacedicks, dickjokes in worldnews...

My guy, the motivation is right but the thinking is wrong.

You teach your daughter how to spot manipulative behavior, teach her how to stand up for and protect herself, teach your daughter how to respect herself AND others, teach her how to love herself AND others, teach her what a healthy relationship looks like...

Boys will be boys, they will be dumb and horny teenagers and they will try shit, even with the absolute best of dumb horny boy intentions, also teenage lesbians are quite keen on trying shit too. You need to teach them to spot the difference between their first love and someone telling them what they want to hear in order to go up their shirt.

Because the point the dude is making is valid if you take the misogyny out of it. That guy might be an absolutely sexist piece of shit I dont know.

But there are some very entitled women in the world, some women just dont realise that everything women DESERVE is a 2 way street. Ive broken up with women because they expect respect, gratitude and support from their partner in everything they do but give none of it in return.

I was a project car guy for a great many years and I had a girlfriend who complained about every dollar and hour I spent on it (despite me also doing the servicing and maintenance on her car) would say things like "When are you going to grow up?" Whenever I got excited about something for the car and (the moment I decided to break up with her) was when I finally buttoned up the last details on an engine swap and went into the house and said "Its FINISHED!" and she turned to a girlfriend she had over and said "Awww look, he thinks he is manly"

Now Imagine if my girl had come out to me and my mates working on the car and said "I got my hair done!" and I turned to the boys and said "Awwww look, she thinks she is pretty." If I told her "I dont know why you bother" when she tried to cook or continually criticised her shopping and spending on clothes and makeup...

Men in a relationship deserve to be treated like a full and equal partner with feelings too.

Ive honestly thought that there is a distinct possiblity that hundreds of years ago the church was the unspoken way to dispose of your children who had no interest in breeding and furthering the family line. They are your kids, and you love them but if they arent carrying their weight in the family...

So off to the dark building full of shadowy alcoves, loose fitting clothing and lots of secrecy full of other men "cut of a similar cloth".

I'm Australian so being an english speaker on the internet I have an opinion on American politics because no matter how hard I try to escape it I cant. So if I have to hear about it incessantly Im going to keep throwing my half informed opinion in.

But FUCK ME is the Harris/Walz ticket well thought out. You have a sitting Dem VP who is female and a POC with a history of being "tough on crime" and a male white late middle aged former high ranking NCO veteran with a history of some super liberal policies in his midwestern home state...

This has always been my stance, Women make up approximately 50% of the population and the WNBA generates 2% of the revenue that the NBA does...

My wife and her friends go to some restaraunt once a month and they buy brand name workout clothes. Go to a game, buy a jersey, take your daughter and make it a thing.

Yeah, that sounds like some pretty fair demands.

The same thing as my least favorite thing weirdly.

I have had some of the greatest meals of my life traveling objects that I didnt get the name of, would be next to impossible to replicate or even describe in some cases and even if I could, I dont know if I would want to.

And I can likely never have it again.

I played it on a fairly ninja pc so I cant comment on if it was absolutely fixed on consoles.

Yeah, rob a bank. If you get away with it, great. If you dont 5 years room and board.

I saw a paper once that your risk of getting shot is inversely proportional to the severity of the situation up to a point.

Adjusted for frequency you are more likely to get shot during a traffic stop than a armed suspect call because they arrive expecting an armed suspect and act accordingly, every traffic stop could turn into a shootout even if it isnt likely to so they tend to overreact.
