I got banned from Reddit because I was mean to Israel
Your “friend”, if they exist, is either a fucking moron and or they’re fucking with you. People everywhere in the country like having toilets and indoor plumbing, sometimes they just can’t afford them because the government has their heads up their own asses
I tried to install Brave and it almost nuked my PC. Completely jammed up. I uninstalled it immediately.
you can just hop into a mobocab which is on standby and get moving
The train would: 1. Rarely be there in the moment somebody actually needs it 2. Almost always be empty.
The mobocabs won’t actually be there when someone needs them, either. They’re on rails. They’re not going to just be hanging out somewhere in the middle of the line so they can show up in a couple of minutes, they’ll be on standby at a trainshed on either end of the line. It’s going to take like 30 minutes for one to arrive – at that point you might as well just have a tram that comes every 30 minutes or so
I’d think a short, reversible, single-car tram (like Coventry’s VLR) would work a hell of a lot better for connections between villages/small towns than Uber for rails with needlessly complicated gyroscopic bs.
My government doesn’t give a flying fuck about “good marketing”, they only care about money and power, which their corporate overlords are more than happy to provide in exchange for…(lots of) money and (real) power. We’ve been agitating for better pedestrian access in the city for years now and this is the bare minimum we got. We’re still raising hell about it
No. Settling for half-assed bullshit like this is exactly how this country got to where it is. The powers that be realized we’d settle for anything and they could skim as much as they liked off the top of our taxes while distracting us with inane bullshit.
It’s to stop people from jumping and landing on the train tracks under the bridge. They don’t care if you jump anywhere else, just not on the tracks
City of London, as mentioned in the video description. But it’s getting better in the rest of Greater London too
I mean, a few days ago there was a brief window where Elon tweaked Grok to reply literally as him (in first person.) Jury’s still out on whether that was actually him replying to people via Grok but it’s pretty close to certain he was in very close proximity
Not my screenshot. I don’t use genAI
I changed it to a more accessible host. Enjoy!
There are no good cops.
There are outright bad cops, and there are cops that are somewhat competent at following procedure – but that doesn’t make them good cops. A lot of the time it’s the doing of the job itself that makes them bad cops.
Mumbai, India. Six grocery stores, five pharmacies, two clinics, and multiple cafes and restaurants within a 3-minute bike ride from where I live. A full-fledged mall, a hospital, a 7-Eleven convenience store, and an upcoming metro station 5 minutes away, a major discount department store, a shopping complex, and the train station 10min away (by bike).
That’s on top of the fact that there are multiple Instacart-style app-based delivery services that’ll bring groceries to you, so you don’t even have to get out of the house if you don’t want to. (I steer clear of those because they grossly underpay their low-level employees, but they’re there if you really need something in a pinch)
I live a solid 25-30 km outside the city center. Not once have I felt the need for a car in my eight years living here, even for longer distances.
Sure, provided they show they want to make changes to the way they do things – at the very least by not actively fighting tooth and nail against systemic measures that could free them of that addiction.
If you don’t have the money for it then thats fine. Times can be tough, I get it.
Is that the entire extent of your consideration, or do you have an actual suggestion for a systemic solution for poor people who find themselves in this situation?
Japan has accessible grocery stores and department stores just about everywhere. That makes it a lot easier to just get what you need and take it home because of how easy it to get to and from the store. If the load is something you can’t carry by yourself most stores offer a delivery service.
Get this AI slop out of here
