2·20 hours agoI live in a much smaller city in a different state and have presented to the traffic and safety board about rampant non-vehicular danger in nearly every point in the current system, how there is no enforcement nor education guaranteeing the problem to get worse. I stopped short of asking how many of them drove to the meeting but the question was in my mind. I’ve applied to be on the council many times but appointment is only done by the mayor(why?).
It’s systemic and deliberate, and where it’s not deliberate as you point out op, people don’t even know what game they’re playing or which teams they’re on.

Bet me count the ways.

1·8 days agoDrones are the industry in the last 6 months. It’s just beginning.
They’ve not even started for most of the domestic and consumer uses. They’re only just scratching the surface of commercial and military application.
In 30 years people will have subscriptions to a drone service that will take x# of packages for them within their city/geography per month/year with weight tiers. Etc. errands and single use car trips and commercial trips in the last mile will drastically decrease.
The skies will never be as they are again. The generation growing up right now will be the last to have been able to look up at the vast expanse without some buzzing. Whirring distraction.

It’s because when so much money/power has pushed so long for people to make decisions based on money and not logic, we’ve now arrived at the point where even “the emperor’s new clothes” type moments can’t rein in the insanity; executives are bonused off this garbage and most employees who do know better–thanks to orgs’ own internal propaganda and structures–have given up caring and just publish the garbage and clock out(as they should).
That food heart was 100% created by a Zelda fan.
I would enter “memories of murder”. It goes toe to toe with Rear Window as one of the best suspense movies ever made, and MOM would go on my top 50 in any language any genre.
Lol “cut off the water”
Nothing needs doing less. The entirety of the SW is entering the “FO” phase of 1950s hubris, and LV is low-hanging fruit. With the advent of the Internet and business model change to maximize revenue in every single moment, it’s easy to lose to online gambling as a proposition it was always going to be an uphill climb.
26·21 days agoIf “capital gains not taxed” didn’t leap off the page at you, you are a poor slob who must actually have w-2 income? Keep up the good work while the wealthy sleep soundly on the tax code they bought and wrote.
“…told the FT it’s becoming difficult to stay ahead of the curb…”
Watch out for that curb, so incredibly difficult to stay ahead of, always moving, adjusting and changing as curbs do against sets of data.
