I’m talking about running stop signs, gunning it at yellow lights, not using turn signals, using turn signals but not turning, swerving into bike lanes and flinging open their doors without looking.
Infrastructure like protected bike lanes and robust public transit so fewer people feel the need to drive are great, but bad driving is bad driving.
Ocean liners are all but extinct. They’ve been supplanted by cruise ships which are utterly horrific for the environment.
I was so excited to finally live in a city where I could actually ride a bike to work most of the year until I actually tried it.
Drivers are assholes, have no awareness of their surroundings, the rules of the road and they give zero shits.
Nope nope nope. I’ll walk to the train
Yes. I have had many dreams where I’m actively reading something, I’m texting somebody, there’s a weird newspaper headline, the sign was wrong and gave me bad directions, etc.and I very clearly remember reading literal text and writing too.
I don’t know where that “you can’t read in dreams” thing came from (The Simpsons?) but it’s bullshit.
I agree. I loved both, but I think B5 hit harder and is more relevant.
The effects were what they were. B5 had like half of DS9’s budget. DS9 still used mostly practical effects and models until season 6 which hold up better too, especially vs. early TV CGI.
I’ve had 2 Chevys 1 Ford & 2 Hondas. I had multiple breakdowns and expensive mechanical issues with Chevy & Ford.
The only thing I ever paid to repair on either Honda was a windshield because a rock hit it.
I think it’ll happen eventually. I was shocked when B5 got the sprucing up that it did. The tools to do even a semi-remaster are getting better and cheaper and generative AI is making it a much less labor intensive proposition.
I like trying all the different styles and learning about new ones. Neapolitan, Sicilian, Roman, New York, Chicago deep dish, Chicago tavern thin, Detroit, etc. I just had quad cities style for the first time recently.
The variations are endless!
But it had to be something that the Klingons found very upsetting. If it was opera, they’d just keep rolling with it and having a great time
We moved to a big city and went from two cars down to one. I’m working on convincing my other half to go to zero cars. We don’t use it enough to justify the expense. An occasional road trip or big shopping run. We can easily (and far more cheaply) just rent a car when we want.
I don’t think we should assume the Kelcie Mae is particularly slow either. The ship’s speed isn’t determined by how many nacelles it has.
My biggest issue with this whole debacle is that the non-profit board hasn’t clearly explained itself to the pubic or its employees. There’s an ethics discussion that absolutely positively needs to happen and there needs to be some sort of governance in place around a myriad legal and moral issues from copyright to displacing human jobs and that can’t happen right now because we still don’t know what the fuck the board was trying to accomplish.
I’m all for responsible stewards of AI, but I don’t think this board is it. They’ve cut themselves out of any future governance ability in any event.
