Remember the tesla self-driving test fatality in NM somewhere where the test observer was on the phone and someone happened to just walk across the highway?

Ah yes, lets take N countries at more or less equal standing and create open borders between then. Of course the sky isn't going to fall. Now...how about you add open borders for all non-EU citizens from say...Africa. Lets see how fast the sky will fall then.

Buried decks wouldn't work very well b/c of water table. At least that's what friends who work in water in Austin used to say. Now...if you let that table drop far enough through drought...then that's a thought. We used to live in Cedar Park. Light rail was probably one of the most useless things ever done to Austin from 2002-2017 when we were there. The rail stopped running way too early in the evening to be useful for going out to Austin (which would be the only reason for suburbanites to go to downtown Austin, aside from 1-2 trips a year to look at the lights/etc).

Not eating his toenails in a public setting, while being filmed by camera, is probably one of them.

Higher humidity in summer, piles of snow in winter. Kansas "economic" experiments. As soon as you leave the burbs it's redneck country.

Airlines allow families with children to board together.

As long as I assume the risk of sand on the road, herd of elk crossing the road or deer jumping out infront of me, I reserve the right to speed on mountain roads on my bike. I have the skill, why do you care?

Stop voting for every proposition to build more bycicle lanes at $1,000,000 per mile.

What's next? An article on dangers of failing brakes in cars?

You can't run a country full of people used to entitlements on "small niche".

Try it in the US and see how fast HR kicks your ass out for violating some company policy.

That's "Oh, a bullshit artist!"

"no more than sixty hours" is "best work/life balance you can expect"? You guys are being taken for chumps.

I never understood this "I was here first, it's too expensive now, I'm gonna be homeless!" attitude. Get the f out and move to a cheaper place. Maybe I'm too white-collar and privileged about this but shouldn't one try to improve their situation instead of sliding further and further down the gutter? People who can't afford to rent so they end up living in their cars? How about you "drive your car out of state and go find some other place to settle down"? What's going to change if you keep living in a car? Are you magically going to get a raise at work that'll suddenly make everything OK? Sheesh.

I use windows on an airplane as a way to calm down my motion sickness issues and stress relief during turbulence. There's nothing worse than sitting in a completely enclosed tube, being bumped around and not being able to see the true horizon.
