  • In defense of the Montreal rem it had to share a the highway bridge that crosses the saint Lawrence River. It's a long bridge that's high enough to let fret ships to go under so very expensive. The only reason the rem crosses the river is because the population insisted on adding rails to the bridge when they prematurely had to rebuild it (because car traffic was unexpectedly high and the bridge was not built to withstand such a load). Also the city portion connects directly to a popular metro station and a long distance passenger train station.

  • I guess there's a tipping point where there's so much guns laying around that carrying over is safer than not but I would rather put efforts into avoiding reaching that tipping point.

    Almost all problems can be solved with either violence or kindness.

  • I feel like Inflation is not hitting me as much as my suburban friends. They keep complaining about the big grocery store chain collusion (they got caught increasing bread prices a few years back).

    Where I live there's line 3 mom&pop produce/pastry/butcher between me and the big chain grocery store. My big chain grocery store is cheaper then other store of the same franchise.

    We built huge expensive highway sso huge corps could build mega stores that killed all the locally owned stores. Now they so what they want.

  • He was reacting to alerts, complying to them by simply touching the steering wheel. He did that 150 times during that 45 minute trip ( not all the trip was on auto pilot).

    So if the guy died the car would of disengaged auto pilot (I'm not sure how this works).

    You can check the video in the article. It's quite informative .

    Edit

    I saw another video and it takes ~60 seconds after taking off your hand from the steering wheel for the car to safely come to a full stop.

  • Here in Montreal we have a very popular car sharing company that allows many of us to not own cars.

    It's biggest issue at the moment is that the company can't buy cars as quickly as demand increases. This type of cars would be a great addition to their park since a lot of the trips their customer do are short inner city trips.

  • They article mention it's more about discouraging teens from starting smoking than making current smokers quit.

    It kind of make sense since you start smoking by receiving a single cigarette not by buying a pack. I know at my high school a lot of smokers started smoking by buying individual smoke from the smoke pusher

  • Wouldn't it be a pleonasm? Tautology is more about the logic realm, specifically about repeating an argument or a statement as it they were different. Here "inaccurate factoid" is merely inaccurate vocabulary.

  • Early this year forest fire fighters in Alberta were complaining that new houses have so much plastic in them that they were combusting and consumed in like 5 minutes making saving them impossible and slowing the fire's spread harder.

    I'm having a hard time finding the quote. I found this explaining houses burn faster now than before because of plastic https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/modern-homes-burn-8-times-faster-than-50-years-ago-1.1700063

    Considering the ridiculous heat of those forest fires 5 minutes is believable
