I’m with him and I totally get his reasoning here...

But I can’t help but feel like there’s some money in this from Riot.
Mostly because if they ARENT already approaching people with contracts to switch over publicly, they’re making a colossal mistake.

Where’s the edit where the car is 2020 and the roundabout is COVID?

“West Germany’s most famous ventriloquist”
The diction here implies that West Germany had a large and competitive market of ventriloquism, which I love deeply.

He could be trans, a crossdressing enthusiast, or simply an incredibly talented prosthetic makeup artist, who knows!

All we know is that Luke confidently and repeatedly used male pronouns and the creator goes by “PrinceOfFluffey”, so the dude identifies as male, or at least prefers male pronouns. Easy as that.

Fair counterpoint! The article definitely made it sound like there was a much more significant drop in traffic along the route.

There’s a huge difference between planning ahead for traffic (a valid and important part of the strategy and challenge) and taking advantage of a massive universal happenstance.

It’s like the hurdler saying “oh well I noticed there were less hurdles on the track today because half of them were being painted, so I ran…

I mean, I’m neither here or there on if it was any more or less morally questionable to do a cannonball run during an epidemic...

But my gut reaction is that its kinda cheap. This is a little bit slippery-slope, I’ll grant you, but it vibes like if a major automaker pulled enough strings to shut down the whole route…

Oh you’re totally in the clear, to be honest. You’re at way more risk popping into a grocery store or going through the drive-thru.

That may or may not be a good enough reason to the cops, though, if you’re somewhere enforcing a curfew.

I have two cars at present (one EV, one ICE), so the gas car ends up sitting most of the time anyways. I’ve gotten in the habit of just leaving the negative terminal on the battery loose enough to wiggle off, and doing that every time I’m done driving it. Takes less than 30 seconds. I have the radio code memorized too.

…

I dunno, man- To hide from the Nazis, 8 people lived for over two years in a 450sqft attic with no TV, no videogames, no phonecalls or texts to friends- not even the ability to take a walk.

You can survive ~3 months with 80% of the normal amenities and 30% of the human contact.

Honest question- have you actually driven one?

Trump touted a false cure on national television with his trademark confidence, and it’s already claimed one confirmed life, nearly a second. It’s almost certainly done much greater damage than that already.
He’s let big business soothsay him into trying to reopen by easter, long before social distancing efforts would…

It’s logarithmic, my dude- Linear=Exponential, which is the point for things like outbreaks and population metrics.

Right I also didn’t really get that- I also didn’t love the vibe that landlords don’t do any work, they simply profit off the wages of other people?
Which, like... I guess you could argue about any necessity? Doctors only profit off the wages of other people. Grocery stores only profit off the wages of other people.…

Well, you showed your cards. Into the unconventional beauty of pasty, wrinkly, samey-looking inbreds, huh?

Meghan is, by several orders of magnitude, the most beautiful and elegant woman, inside and out, to grace the royal family in 200 fucking years.
THAT is why they hate her.

I don’t give a shit what the creator thinks, I will face god and walk backwards into hell before I taint my lips with “Jif”.

I think the article is fairly misleading. The equipment has cameras on board which took these pictures. Lidar is being used to create a 3D map of the contents so they can better plan the controlled destruction/disassembly.

LIDAR is a ToF sensor that builds a point cloud- there’s no way you could get reflections with…

1st/Neutral:

Only “lying” due to a system failure after over 300k miles.

Much like someone getting stranded because the gas gauge failed or the gas pump went out. I don’t think it’s honest to say the rental car company “lied” about your vehicle’s effective range when a mechanical failure shows a quarter tank when the tank is…
