FWIW that advice was first given to me by a 10+ year veteran high school driving instructor. Repeated by a USAF instructor. And despite the assumptions about geometry, it will virtually never get you too close to the edge. Of course those were 60s & 70s cars, but it works with my Prius.
So you're saying you weren't driving a passenger car...
If you do this, every single pedestrian death that doesn't involve the car physically leaving the roadway and driving on a sidewalk becomes the pedestrian's fault, because pedestrians can never be in the road when cars are moving, and vice versa.
Except for those pesky times when motorists become distracted or impatient and ignore the traffic signals, but we know that never happens.
Not far from the truth.
The big implication from this is that making these inference engines isn't difficult and they can't be protected. That's the doom of all of AI money: the product is getting commoditized; you'll buy a Claude/ChatGPT/whatever in a box from Amazon in a few years.
To charge in your garage, you generally need a 2nd circuit run to your house. And that usually costs about $10,000.
Many homes have 30A 240v clothes dryer circuits that can be repurposed for EV charging with a smart splitter or by upgrading to a heat pump clothes dryer that plugs into a standard 120v outlet. That'd provide enough capacity to recharge the Slate from completely flat (which you really shouldn't be doing regularly in an EV anyway) in about 12 hours.
Citing a silly platitude that is not even logical does not have the argument winning effect you wish it to have.
Do they block all IP addresses from china?
And there we have ity. this is allso a self reinforcing system, due it it being dangerous to walk no one walks so waking walkable neighborhoods will never be a priority because everyone drives eventyrere anyway so..
Unless you are in one of the view ultra-urban cities....no we just aren't built to be "walkable"....hasn't been a need or impediment so far to be honest....it's just our way of life here.
And we're not going to be spending exhorbant amounts of money to rip and and redo our cities.
Personally I dont wanna live somewhere where I'm required to live in dense housing and share walls with neighbors. I prefer to have a front and especially a back yard where I can fence it in or my dogs, so I can set up my large log burning offsent smoker, sent up for parties with friends and neighbors for crawfish boils, etc....
I'm VERY happy being "non-walkable"....my cars and motorcycle suit me just fine for shopping, travel and just having fun out on the road....
I don't have trucks or SUVs myself....but to each their own.
We really need a new Godwin's law, but applied to the term "fascist".
OMG you do'nt know how to set up a car, do you.
1. Fore-aft. Slide seat forwards (or backwards) until your extended leg is past the pedals. Which means when you put the foot on the pedal, you'll have a comfortable bend in knee.
2. Set seat rake. Extend arm out, fingertips should touch radio / shifter when fully extended.
3. Set wheel. If telescoping wheel, extend arm out, put rim on wrist. That'll give you the proper bend.
4. Set seat height.
5. Set mirrors. And if you belive in blind spots, you're doing it wrong. Google "adjusting side view mirrors" and the old Car and Driver article shoudl surface. The one painstakingly explaining why blind spots are bullshit.
Only then are you "set up."
If you got gangsta lean - wrong. if your wheel is in your chest.. wrong. There's only ONE correct solution for cockpit position.
And as for seat height adjustment, IME is the ohter way around - most cars, even shitboxes, since the 90's have them. You may not *realize* it's there, but explore the car some, and you may find it. Some are manual, some are powered.
Christ. They don't teach this anymore, don't they..
Sorry, I neglected the sarcasm flag. Though I doubt you recognize those.
Yes you can always see the hood. That's stupid, thinking you can't see the hood. And the rule isn't to see the front of the hood, but the center. Of what you can see. But if you've never tried it, you'll day it's stupid.
Be sure to bow down and kowtow to the environazis mandating EVs. All that newfound mass is from battery packs.
In saner regions of the world pedestrian safety is a requirement in vehicles
No body fucking walks in the US man....hence it doens't occur to us to be any sort of "priority".
Real computer scientists don't comment their code. The identifiers are so long they can't afford the disk space.
