As a bicyclist, I do notice cars being smelly. Some more so than others, but it's one of several strong incentives to find roads with few cars to bike on.

Autopia, sponsored by Honda, is so horrible that after we rode it, my pre-teen son said, I"m never buying a Honda. The smell is really disgusting, and the ride is outdated; it's too slow to be exciting for all but the youngest kids now, especially for something themed as being a racetrack.
Yes, Disney needs to do some planning for the technology to electrify the attraction, as they need to keep the cars moving most of the time. That likely means induction charging while they're driving.
This is also a good time for Disney to think about how they would design a driving ride today, It may be time to do far more than just replace the smelly cars with electric versions.
Constantly jaywalking pedestrians and cyclists weaving in and out everywhere in a chaotic downtown core are "a well-defined problem"? I dunno.
I'd rather just ban cars from the downtown core.
The shame of it is... someone knew what they were doing, because they got a usable product out the door. It kinda sucked at certain things, but that's generally true of every first release. So with a reasonable business plan, they might have actually benefitted from their success. Now they're broke, just somewhat later than if they'd not bothered at all.
I've now confirmed the ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 motherboard has no TPM, and did not even include a socket for adding it after the fact. Would you care to be condescending again?
Nope, Athlon II x6. Don't have SSE 4.1 or 4.2 either, can't run Cyberpunk 2077. I don't even have UEFI! I'm pretty sure I don't have any TPM at all.
If you're wondering why so many recent telescopes seem to be wide-angle survey telescopes, this is why. We've gotten to the point where the precision of incoming data is sufficient for first-order analysis. Now the priority is on collecting such data from huge swaths of the sky -- basically anywhere our own galaxy isn't screening us. The problem used to be that there wasn't time to analyze that much data, but then we started to realize how much more information is still in unprocessed raw data, even decades after the event, and we knew Moore's Law would eventually catch up, and here we are. The new hotness is staring at everything at the same time and letting computers sort it out.
Future historians researching 21st century literature will note a stratum around 2023, the point at which anything written after will much more likely to be contaminated with LLM output, using its presence to date works for which the publication date is unknown.
This looks like a good time to roll out the new sig.
Twelve songs and counting that are about the current war and the overall state of affairs in and around Russia.
Agreed, I just thought the money spent on your distortion pedal might have gone toward recording equipment which you could then abuse to produce your distortion effect (and still have a recording device).
Roll it off stage. Harpsichords aren't as prone to drift from just being rolled across a flat surface as pianos are.
What this country needs is a good five cent microcomputer.
