The cost of going to theaters is way up, while the quality of the movies is in the dumpster.
Then there is the whole unpleasant theater experience. People talking, using phones, filthy theaters, and so on.
How can people not be burned out on the superhero crap by now?
The movie will be streaming in two months anyway.

Destroying earth. Last I heard, it uses as much energy as the nation of Argentina.

I mostly use my 13 y/o freebsd box. It feels freer. I don't have some corporation spying on me, and telling me what to buy and when. It does what I need it to do.
I respect that other people have different needs, and values.

Welcome to capitalism.

I had one breakthrough DMT experience where I saw 'the machine elves' (I just saw what I describe as fast-moving fractals that I 'felt' were beckoning to me); but, we have matching experiences w/the other primary psychedelics: I only had relatively minor on-top visual distortions with even the largest doses of LSD (1500+ mcg) or mushrooms.

That said, everyone is different. I know that some of my friends absolutely lost their fucking minds on a few tabs of LSD and, purportedly, experienced wild hallucinations that I have to trust were real to them but haven't ever experienced myself.

To prove your age, will have to provide ID. Now they will know everything you post.

Quoted from the article. More quotes:

> "Tesla accomplished this by building a tiny two-seat robotaxi with no steering wheel, no pedals, and a sub-50 kWh battery pack."
> "That’s a legitimate engineering strategy for a robotaxi fleet vehicle. It’s not a fair comparison to a car you’d actually buy."

I was hoping to find out whether this is a viable business model for new startups, but they only ruled that it took too long for Musk to bring the lawsuit.

You do not have to pedal most ebikes. Class 2 ebike and class 3 ebikes can be operated by throttle. Built in speed limits are usually easy to bypass.

Yes, it is really problem. On the Golden Gate Bridge it has been a problem for years. E-bikes going down the sidewalks much to fast to respond to pedestrians and so on.

You cannot just put pedals on a Harley and call it a bicycle. There are some so-called ebikes that can go highway speeds.

Often, there is no other place for cyclists to ride. Often, to get to one bike path to another, you have to ride on sidewalks. Often, sidewalks are considered bike paths.
Bicycles have enormous potential to reduce greenhouse gases, and solve many other problems - as has been proved in the Netherlands. But a certain amount of urban planning is needed.

The fuels are not made from fossils. Maybe "carbon" fuels would make more sense?

Untold billions in outright fraud were uncovered. Want to try again?

The US sent Ukraine about $100 billion, what does it take to be properly armed?
