... google fiber's gigabit speeds, Cox should also commit to rolling out google fiber's reasonable prices.

They can't. I get sick of posting this but:
The cost to provide you internet is directly proportional to the density of the population where you live.

oh, so this is why I can get 1Gbit (with 100Mbit upload) at $30 in RURAL FUCKING ROMANIA.

and we can start worrying about how the car would tell the difference between a robot mannequin and an actual person later. just like it would hit a deer rather than drive 60mph off the road to avoid the animal(if it's a deer, just drive into it. if it's a moose, do a panic evasion and try your chances with the trees).

like, come on, should the car crash on the sidewalk just because someone jaywalked to be in front of it? certainly not.

One thing hours of watching Russian dash cams taught me is you see someone/something smaller than you jump in front of your car you PLOW THRU THAT FUCKER no matter what. Cars are made to take frontal crash, but the second you start avoiding it you end up hitting a tree sideways / flipping your car and/or on the opposite lane right in front of a lorry doing speed limit.
