Comment Surprised theaters can stay in business (Score 0) 172

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.

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."

Comment Re:Good. Existing laws have loopholes for "e-bikes (Score 1) 244

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.

That is not exactly correct. There is a reason they are called "tariffs" not "taxes."
Tariffs can bring in revenue, but they can also be used for public policy, and trade policy.
For example, let's suppose a country imposes on tariff of some US goods, and the president immediately turns around and imposes tariffs on some of that countries goods. The tariff is not for revenue, it can be to tell the other country to back off.
There are a million reasons a president might want to impose tariffs. It is a tool that can be used for all sorts of negotiations.
