Ah, I had 59 in mind, specifically from downtown to 610. Definitely use that trick as well 

It’s funny that you mention that, because it seems, in Houston at least, that the right lanes go faster in bumper to bumper conditions, because everyone and their mom has to be in the fast 

it’s not the speed that kills you, it’s the sudden stop

They’re limited by the Jones Act (requiring all aid to PR to come from a US port). Trump refused to waive it last time. Expect no better now. It’s been a boondoggle for big US shipping corporations (and kept PR unfairly constrained financially) for 100 years.

Hah! Try building a fully offgrid, disconnected energy efficient tiny home on a rural property with a local council still using 1890's (it seemed) building standards.

I came across this quote which seems to sum up why the Danes are so far ahead on this.

It might just be because I live in a small apartment and am never far from my computer, but I really don’t get the point of trying to wade through voice commands for stuff when it’s easier to just do a couple clicks.

Fuck all religion. Build the fucking telescope.

Although I do think we’d have more young adults getting killed drinking and driving (and potentially killing others), but would this simultaneously make drinking less of the “big deal” it is and curb it in other ways (e.g., kids that never drank leaving for college and then going off the deep end…

Anyone else thinking Firefly?

Imagine, long after this nightmare circus sideshow of a presidency is over, all the things we will find out this dipshit said in private to his aides, lawyers, family members, etc. The things we don’t know.

Worth noting nuclear weapons have less relevance in the world of active missile defence which is being disseminated into pretty much everything.
