Comment Re: While they are at it ... (Score 1) 33

"Anonymous source(s) reportedâ¦" is how they legally get away with lying. They all do it. Anyone still relying on mass media is fooling themselves. Best to watch the people making the claims say it directly from their mouths. And not snippets or sound bites, the entirety of their speeches, interviews, and statements.

I saw an article talking about how Americans are surprised they are not able to claim the new tax deductions on their recent car purchase because they didnâ(TM)t read the fine print of the big beautiful bill. They simply listened to the talking points and said "bae, if we buy a car we get $10k back" or "yeah all my tips are tax free!!". But if they had read the bill they would have understood the shortcomings. CNN is not going to tell you that. Fox News isnâ(TM)t going to tell you that. Best to go to the source. New media was saying this but even then it's just snippets and likely goes too far the other way.

Gotta go to the source, those that don't will be doomed.

Comment Waymo speeds through my school neighborhood (Score 2, Interesting) 45

Sure the speed limit is 30, but we have tons of kids in the neighborhood and narrow streets due to parked cars (we are still in the heart of the coty). Everyone else travels at 20. Waymo regularly travels at 30mph. Maybe its lidar is detecting pedestrians and thinks it is safe, but just the other day I watched a kid run out from behind a parked car to catch a ball. No amount of lidar would catch that at the last minute.

Of course itâ(TM)s play fast, fail hard.. so change will not happen until a kid dies. Just hope it is not mine!

Why wait for Cruise? You can do this today. My daily commute is 20min going up 45 and around 610.. I get the worst of it all. But I don't drive, and while I don't play games or watch movies, I do text, catchup on emails, and eat breakfast. Makes that drive go so much quicker.. Waymo is here too now, so there's space for a new player...
