"Civilized" means keeping up with traffic as much as anything else. It also means being courteous. It also means not in the latter category. If you want to drive fast, find a racetrack and show us how cool you are.

I was on such a system for a couple of weeks before I discovered and stopped it. My "driving philosophy," such as it is, is to drive in a manner so that I do not impact others. In other words, I drive in a civilized manner. Yet I was astounded to discover that I was being dinged for "hard braking." ??? I find that absurd. I brake so softly that the car comes to an even stop and does not jerk either the car or the passengers. And that's the problem. Who makes up the parameters of what constitutes "hard braking," or any other measurement? And for that matter, isn't "hard braking" sometimes necessary to prevent an accident when someone else is performing badly? Doesn't that signify attentive driving? And in the absence of a court-ordered ignition interlock, doesn't this amount to prior restraint? We need to tell these people, including OnStar, to go pound sand.

Why are you here? Do you have ANY IDEA what "On topic" means?

If you do this from birth, the cat will never know and be perfectly comfortable living a charmed life. Cars, coyotes, and bald eagles abound around here and will shorten a cat's life considerably.

Keep your cat indoors. The birds will appreciate it. You won't have a flea problem, and your cat won't become prey themselves. Win/win for everyone.

She was an Equity Hire. Her qualifications for a professorship, especially at Harvard, were dubious at best, much less the presidency. It's what happens when you elevate mediocrity.

by all means let them. Do not stand in their way. You are being offered a gift. It's a Godsend. Few people are irreplaceable, far fewer than those who think they are. If they leave, they become someone else's problem.

Upset that Elon can deliver to the Space Station at half-price? Angry that NASA's "rocket" has never flown and likely never will? Puzzled over how many Teslas are on the road? Now, what precisely have YOU done except criticize the successes of others?

Nor will you be missed. Your replacement is a robot.

That would be a good way to guarantee AI would take over this more quickly. It's a good incentive to pluck this low-hanging fruit as soon as possible.

He could have prevented that by not taking the job in the first place. It's not as if the Trevor Milton Fraud Scheme only recently popped up in the news.

We have this argument on a monthly basis now. Every single time we hear the same negativity about why YOU don't want an EV because a) You drive 1,000 miles in a stretch and don't want to recharge (even though you could), or b) You live in a condo and have no way to plug it in, or c) Insert your personal reason here. You see outlier cases and worry that it won't work for you when it isn't about you at all. It's about the 80-90% of the cases that DO work. It's about the average commuter where 50 miles a day is a long commute. That's a week's worth of driving at current ranges where you are getting over 100mpg equivalent.

Outlier cases only count for outliers. Nobody else cares. EVs will work for most people most of the time. If you won't give up your gas-powered car until they pry it from your cold, dead fingers, well, that's exactly what will happen. Then there will be one less ICE on the road, until there are no more left on the road at all. If you don't get it, your kids will. It's just a matter of time.

while you sleep. Problem solved. But! but! but! I can't! I won't! Blah blah blah. Doesn't matter. It isn't about you. If it works for most of the people most of the time, it works.

I'm 74. I just find it amusing that so many youngins want to return to "simpler times." I think the "good old days" were called "these trying times" when we went through them. I'm not so happy with the politics, but I am very happy with the tech. Rock on!

No it isn't. Given the size of Amazon's workforce, it's a drop in the bucket. You can bet the hourly warehouse workers didn't walk of the job. Only the salaried workers could afford it.
