I’ll bring chairs and a blanket

May I join you on this hill?

It’s a social contract basically: we will be peaceful as long as you allow us to remain peaceful.

This or “support group”. Community implies those already around you. Something like AA would fit the bill for something that is similar to religion or a cult but positive and affirmative.

Again, if you’re too stupid to make sure the multiton hunk of metal is coming to a stop by all the other obvious visual markers, including watching it’s speed compared to stationary objects like signs and lamp posts, then this won’t do shit. People need more aweness of their surroundings, not a bunch of lights and horns because people won’t pay attention.

You enter the road when it’s safe, not jump in and play frogger with lights hoping to get across.

If a car is braking it rides differently from one that isn’t. A car is normally rather level and leans “forward” when braking.

Besides that, YOU SHOULDNT GET IN FRONT OF ANYTHING YOU ARENT SURE IS STOPPING. If it’s moving fast enough that you need this, you shouldn’t be trying to get in front anyways.

Frankly, at this point, I just assume. The old joke was something like everyone on the internet is a man, except for the children, those are FBI agents. Now I just assume everyone is a bot.

“When you’re alone in another country” implies OP is an expat, but then they don’t go to their consulate? Riiiiiight. OP is a scammer.

“See these platforms as unreliable”.

You prompted ChatGPT to write this for GoFundMe. This isn’t that kind of platform AT ALL. Yeah it’s unreliable, because you’re a scammer who can’t even scam well.

Yes it is!

The background changes to match the current weather.

If only the start wasn’t the only part with white text it would be an almost seamless loop. Great effort tho!

Well yeah, they have to move over the sensor loop. You can’t just place it in the center. It’s part of a process that happens as, you know, you pull up to the light. They are a little fancy.

And I pointed to the iPads, that are keyboardless laptops, that come standard with one from the exact company you criticized. So I really question what you do know.

It is an option. Search for cell phone laptop modem and you will find hundreds of cards to install to give you cell phone service.

Literally every internet device has a modem. You just change it from one with a wifi antenna to one with a LTE(cellphone) antenna.

This question was born entirely out of ignorance of the devices existence, not an actual lack of the device existing. I had one in the freaking 90’s.

Does no one remember tablet pcs, which are just low end laptops without a keyboard, that come pretty standard with cell phone service, including iPads???

Yes, but “we will avoid trains no matter what” is blatantly false. It’s terrible, but it is our main method of shipping freight from ports to inland cities.

Driverless does not meant unmonitored. Aside from numerous sensors, including door sensors, you really think if it suddenly slows to 0 mph at an unscheduled time/location that it’s not going to alert someone? “Hey, your freight just stopped transporting itself. Guess we should do nothing”. Aside from most of these being ready to be taken over by a remote driver if need be for liability and convenience reasons.

Large neodymium magnet on the bottom will do it. Most are induction activated. They taught this in every motorcycle driving class I ever attended, along with the rules for legally running a red light.

Except that nearly all US rail is for freight. We hate PASSENGER trains. We freaking love freight rail.

I’m not gonna disagree with the people saying “I’ve dropped my phone a million times and it’s fine”. I was there once too. Then, I dunno what my luck became, but suddenly dropping my phone almost always ended up cracking the screen. So I started using protectors.

Now, on those times I drop it just right to shatter the screen, instead just the protector cracks. Peel it off, stick on a new one for cheap(or free if you buy ones with a warranty), and continue on.

I treat them like crumple zones. The force being applied to the phone has to go somewhere. The protector, being outside, takes it first. Does it guarantee the phone will survive? Nah. But does it add something else that has to break first? Yup. And have I managed to crack a phones screen since using protectors? Nope.

It may just be anecdotal experience, but an extra $10-$50 to protect a $800-$1000 phone seems like simple insurance imo. Same with an Otterbox case(which also have lifetime warrenties).
