I'd like to point out this is propaganda. The only source is actually a report[1] from January this year, that's where the line, "Buenos Aires saw a doubling of available rental units, and rental prices have stabilized" comes from. It took me a lot of time to find it a month or so ago when the Libertarians on Reddit were running victory laps after it got picked up by AR15.com's forum[2] early August.

Maybe even some county officials like the Sheriff making sure the plant runs smoothly.

This happens in other cities too. Sidewalks, parks, and squares, right?

The simplest solution is to let scooters have priority in the streets. Aggressively police the aggressive vehicle drivers that are pushing scooters onto walkways. Especially as the car drivers already have a license system.

But if you've stopped and turned your head to look down both sides of the street instead of relying on your peripherals that suck at detecting changes in motion, you've done yourself a huge service in not getting hit.

>They are pointless when nobody else is around though. It's still good to slow down just to be safe, but there's no reason to come to a full stop.

And yet people still get hit rolling through stop signs.

Should we use technology to prevent it? YES

Why do people roll through stop signs? Complaints about acceleration and uselessness.

I easily see two fixes for acceleration. Make stopping and starting less jarring on occupants and reduce the need for the driver to switch from gas to brake pedals.

Uselessness can be resolved by a number of ways, make the area around the stop more open for better visibility, but we can definitely use technology to prevent people from rolling through stop signs. Set up sensors so that only one roadway has an active stop sign, when the sensors detect a single vehicle the stop sign on their way can be disabled. When the sensors detect intersecting vehicles both stop signs are activated.

It sounds like gate-keeping too me; like JRE saying there are only 250 real comics in the world or @LPNH deciding who is Libertarian enough on Twitter.

>Blaming capitalism alone on that is a bit silly. There's nothing capitalistic about a giant gov agency funding the same tiny group of companies for decades.

I'm blaming capitalism 100% for the hollowing out of NASA. I never said early NASA was perfect.

>But they replaced the public-private idea with a series of mega gov bureaucracies whose whole job is propping up monopolies who are prevented from failing in an open market because they are deemed essential to the national interest - entirely because gov refuses to adapt to reality and allow proper competition or long term investment.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm blaming capitalism of doing.

>We need to kill or reboot legacy gov agencies when they get old.

I really think if we just didn't let this happen constantly we'd have a better system. It's going to shift the litany of special interest because the goal is profits, but barely, existing contractors will just open up a bunch of subsidiary companies.

Those government inefficiencies are a great source of profit. Cut the FTEs today because the contractor's unrealistic low bid looks better on the budget. Make sure to hire a woman or minority owned for-profit road construction company, or hell just let the roads get so bad a pizza company can make it into a very effective ad campaign. I think we are a country hobbled by capitalism, afraid to do anything because it might hurt profits, even if it will hurt people.

NASA led private contractors to develop the Saturn V rocket and associated modules, now NASA is buying solutions, services, and products. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commercial_Crew_Program

Steve Ovett must've been lying or had Covid when he collapsed while running in 1984. And Haile Gebrselassie and Justine Henin withdrawal shows they were just cowards in Beijing 2008?

Ahh yes, breezily moving at a speed where I will destroy anything stationary 200 feet in front of me without a choice.

I'm going to drive home today from my vacation at 75mph because if I go any slower the people having breezy drives stack up dangerously behind me.

I'm not accepting of your mysticism.

It's not the same person.

Mother nature isn't a humorous process, it's physics.

What if when climate change isn't a big deal you have the equivalent of a person using a free app with ads to tune your piano reporting to you, and when climate change is a big deal you have that piano repairman that can hit a key and tell you the string is rusted when struck too hard from experience.

KOTH was 90+ miles from Houston apocryphally and a very liberal town even by today's standards. "Hank shows homophobic behaviors, but it doesn't seem out of malice." The malice is unfortunately why I think you're being downvoted. That's definitely increased in both Texas and Colorado.

Vehicles built to handle 5-8 travellers, the majority of vehicles sold in the US, are more often than not carrying one driver and no passengers for significant numbers of trips breaks this line of reasoning.

That's not what I'm proposing. Billionaires give away their money all the time.

A slow unraveling of the accumulated wealth of billionaires and corporations. Catch the falling knife with your strong hand. Be even better if the rich did it voluntarily.

Hmm, does my money have the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed?

Well I live in a different country and I think a panel of experts including a pathologist and a neurologist should study it. I thought it was a good idea, sorry I suck.

>You don’t want to mess with the brain if it isn’t absolutely necessary.

Who said it shouldn't be absolutely necessary? This is kinda of part of the discussion. The person in the article had a growth removed and it was benign, we didn't have enough knowledge beforehand to make that decision and the risk was deemed sufficient. Was one seizure really enough reason to remove a benign growth?

I sometimes joke, "what about the cancer?" And not just in jest for despicable people afflicted. These are weird evolutions of ourselves. We should study them. The shit probably isn't going to be as cool as Butcher from The Boys, but ALL the removed masses of human brain tissue should definitely be preserved in a non-destructive way as possible and should be studied. I don't think we can fully understand brain abnormalities before we understand the brain, but seeing some failure cases has to help.

So we should remove them especially as we lack the full understanding to know if they are always dangerous.

It's a massive failure of government. I shouldn't have to search down my government on a private website to get some vital or emergency information and then find my representative has been fighting with an online cow avatar.

So it has the same problem with a lot of "memory", reads are destructive. Your write probe and read probe are the same, some sort of needle/poker?

Maybe it's because setting up a Wifi connection is 20 years old.

I used .coffee on my home network until it became a for-profit TLD. https://icannwiki.org/.coffee

In an unequal society the crime could just be in the areas of high poverty because the government chooses to avoid improving those areas. Off the top of my head that's just one way to interpret "Crime is a function of inequality."

I would need a definite article on women to consider striking to not be a verb.

There are numerous ways to identify the origin of ancient remains. FTA about the non-Denisovan remains:

>Unfortunately, the bones were in such small fragments that they were nearly impossible to identify by sight. Instead, the researchers analyzed the bone collagen using mass spectrometry to figure out what species they belonged to.

The Old Man is a 30-foot mountain hemlock log with three feet exposed above water in Crater Lake, Oregon.
