I want (my employer) to be able to choose my death panel (without my input, based on how it affects their shareholder profits) in the free market!

Fixed it for you ;)

This 100%…

It is so expensive/time consuming/finicky for a product that best case scenario is comparable to store bought.

I know its super pedantic, but the word “accident” really grinds my gears in this context.

The proper terminology is “crash”.. accident infers that there is no fault or misconduct.

Here are a few that I find have consistent high quality content:

The B1M... His videos seem to really get into the nitty gritty logistics of various large construction projects.

Caitlin Doughty (Ask a Mortician)... I feel like each video is better than the previous. The historical death documentaries are incredible.

Climate Town... Videos about climate change & has a really fun sense of humor.

Neo... Lots of really cool explanatory videos. The editing is really good as well! The recent video on the presidential motorcade was very cool.

And one more... Reckless Ben... IDK if it really fits within the prompt of this thread.. The channel is tough to watch with all the annoying humor & there is a lot of hit-or-miss videos, but at least lately, it seems to really be doing some very interesting things. I enjoyed his series on mckamey manor.

Its worth noting, your numbers are super misleading..

the manufactured home cost in the bob vila article includes the entire house (foundations, land clearing, utilities, finishes, permit fees, etc).. aka, for the 270k, youre getting a move-in ready house.

The 3D printed home cost in your builtin article appears to only include the basic structure (aka the cheap part). Still gotta pay teams of people to come on-site to do everything else. The cheapest they mentioned was $299k for a move-in ready house.

When i was a kid, a mexican restaurant chain shut down after a bunch of people got sick/died of hepatitis A in my city.

The day they reopened, it was highly publicized on the local news, and my family went there to eat.. i asked my dad if he was concerned about getting sick. He stopped, looked me in the eye, and told me with the upmost confidence “i guarantee you that this will be the cleanest restaurant meal you will ever have in your life”…

i feel a similar concept applies to this situation.. with all the eyes on the 737 max8, there is no way management is going to sell one if it has outstanding flaws/safety issues.

Youre never “nothing”… youre always something special! I promise :)

Example: when there is no traffic, youre still a noise & particulate generator that lowers property values, warms our planet, and makes the built environment more hostile/dangerous and depressing for everyone nearby.

I know that a short visit doesnt give great insight into a place, but the following 2 things were very striking to me when visiting:

1 - the smoking.. i found it disturbing just how many people were smoking 2 - the graffiti. I was surprised by just how much graffiti there was. Do people not take pride in their property enough to wash it off? I know Graffiti is common everywhere, but it seemed to be on a whole other level in europe.. like it wasnt just on the back alleys, but on the front facades of buildings too. The front door of one of my airbnbs was covered in graffiti.

There was 1 thing though that was totally the opposite though & made total sense... the dual function windows (where you turn the handle 1 way to open them like a door & another way to lean them in to provide ventilation. These were everywhere & i found them to be the most functional thing ever! I wish they would catch on in the usa.. with that said, the first time i discovered this functionality, it was accidental. I panicked as i thought i broke the window lol.

No, it doesnt make sense for the following reason:

Trains have priority. Road users are required by law to yield to them.

Unless the crosswalk is signalized, cars do NOT have priority & are required by law to crosswalk users.

This is a thing on (some) planes.

Took a transatlantic flight that had this functionality.. it wasnt in the call button, but on the infotainment system. Instead of playing movies, you could set the screen to display one of those 2 options.

If her excuse was “i didnt know i parked my car on the tracks”, she needs to have her drivers license confiscated. Someone with such little awareness of their surroundings has no business operating heavy machinery (car), let alone the responsibilities of her job.

My city’s DPW recently performed 2 traffic studies as part of their pedestrian plan.

One was driver yield rates at unsignalized crosswalks. The results of this study indicated that of the 825 yielding oppurtunities observed, drivers yielded only 173 times (aka, 79% of drivers failed to yield in violation of state law).

The other was a speed study. Of the 35 observed roads, all 35 had a measured median speed that exceeded the speed limit. 34 of the 35 had measured average speeds that exceeded the speed limit..

Based on these findings, An overwhelming majority of drivers fail to abide by basic traffic laws. I would argue that breaking basic traffic laws makes one a terrible driver, so yes. A large majority (like 79%) are terrible.
