If there's only ten cars per hour you should have plenty of options to pass them ...

So you didn't bother to read the paper, didn't you.

using four cherry picked criteria

There's a lengthy part of that paper discussing their criteria, with references to other studies.

Ford f950 with the extra black smoke package and factory standard swastika paint job

Which doesn't even remotely exist in Germany, where this study was done. Which, you know, you could have known if you'd actually read the study...

It's science for hire.

Lol, that's because the mods of said threads already had to delete all the bullshit they posted once they "accidentally found this on all" and then descent on it like locusts (but they're totally not brigading!!!1!)

Here's one of their mods:

You jest, but this is exactly what the German panel who’s responsible for our traffic „recommendations“ proposed recently: make the parking spots larger…

There recently was a discussion on lemmy where several US citizens (one of them allegedly an engineer…) tried to explain to me that metric might be „more precise“ (? 😂) but the imperial system more practical, because „everybody knows what a foot is“. When I asked them to add feet to miles I got shouted at (in CAPS) that noone (ever) does that. 🤷‍♀️

No, hair does stop growing.

Hair grows in phases and cycles. At the end of the cycle, it falls out.

The difference between body hair and the hair on your head is that the latter one has cycles measuring years, the other weeks.

This right here, that’s the point. You’re welcome.

Unless you’re an ultra-orthodox marxist, there is no such thing as trüe communism™.

There always have been many different ideas what „communism“ is, e.g. there have been various „nationalist communist“ ideologies (complicated by the fact that the Russian SFSR called everything „nationalist“ that wasn’t 100% aligned with its ideas of the Soviet Union, e.g. Hungary).

There are also no clear boundaries between communism, socialism, and anarchism, e.g. Kropotkin with his theories of anarchist communism.

That being said, I don’t think communism is a system (either social or economic), it’s strictly an idealogy, meaning it’s a way to achieve something, i.e. the classless and stateless society. If you follow that thought to its logical end, you cannot even „achieve“ communism at all, since at this point e.g. the proletariat ceases to exist, and as a result you cannot have a „dictatorship of the proletariat“.

It’s… complicated.
