Yeah I'm mega anti-car and not at all optimistic about self-driving but this article says very little of substance.

Man wouldn't it suck if America was covered in asphalt and gridlock?

In general, I find that speed limits are more effective when they are accompanied with the actual infrastructure

This is a known phenomenon. The solutions you mention are part of whats called traffic calming and they are very effective.

You drive 100km down residential streets every day? Main roads will not have this speed limit.

At those speeds you might as well not even bother with a car.

That's kind of the point. Cars are horribly inefficient at moving people, terrible for the environment, and turn cities into dangerous and awful places to be.

Lowering the speed limit saves lives, whether or not it feels slow should be irrelevant.

I got docked points on my test for going 30 in a residential zone. I didn't fail and I know the tester is just doing their job but daaamn. Encouraging a 17 year old kid to go 50 down side streets with only enough space for a single car, interesting strategy.

17 is way too young to be driving in the first place, but that's another conversation.

Rogue One sucks.

Guerilla warfare being an established concept doesn't make it immune to criticism. You can still criticize Hamas even if their tactics are similar to your example about the Jews in Prague.

I'm not siding with IDF I just don't think this argument holds a lot of weight.

Fuck epic.

Is that necessarily a bad thing? Sure their motives aren't great but if it tastes fine who cares. Probably healthier for you and definitely better for cows & the environment.

Sounds like a great feature.

Trust me, we are laughing. Especially at people making comments like yours.

I know this is a joke but idc. The reason for basically every quirk of pronunciation/spelling in English is borrowed words, of which English has very many. Tamales is an obvious/good example.

I hope this comment is satire because it's hilarious.

All I've got left is my bones

Guh why are so many of the anti-work crowd so obnoxious. You're knee-capping the fucking movement.

Arthur pay your student debt.

I'M IN A TANK AND YOU'RE NOT

Costco meats are very good quality afaik so that might be why they seem similar prices, or meat is just not something you save on at costco. Buying cheese at costco is like 75% off & cereal is like 50% off. Pretty sure I could make a costco membership worth it with 1 visit of non-perishables.
