The main issue I have with full self driving is that it'll probably never actually be full self driving; there'll always be use cases where people have to take over - ice, snow, slightly flooded roads, sand, whatever*. And humans will have to take over under conditions when it's extremely helpful for them to have had extensive driving experience under a range of conditions - experience they'll no longer have because the car's been driving them everywhere.

* Yes, I know we're not supposed to drive in some of these conditions, and yet sometimes we have to, even if it's just to get to a safer place.

The best use cases I can think of for full self-driving are the elderly, the visually impaired, the drunk, the disabled, and the easily distracted.

I took Amtrak across the country once. The freight trains are supposed to give priority to the passenger trains so they leave and arrive (mostly) on time, but (outside the NEC) they mostly don't bother and they've never been held to those requirements. Once again, prioritizing "stuff" over people.

Fuckwad didn't even bother to show up to court when he was told to be there.

Was he pulling out the Trump and local Republican signs too? No? Then he knew, he just didn't want to get in trouble for what he did. Fucking cowards don't have the conviction to actually stand up for their beliefs.

I had a doctor's appointment on Halloween a few years ago. I was getting ready to go out, I put out a bowl of candy (nice mix of different chocolates) and went back inside to grab my purse and my test results for the doctor. I was inside for maybe 45 seconds? During which time I heard a couple kids come up to the porch, say something like "What do you think?", and a slight scuffling sound. When I exited the house about 20 seconds later, they'd scooped the entire bowl clean and disappeared.

Not being very immersed in pop culture, I just assume they're dressed as someone from a show I don't watch.

As they desperately try to close the show before knucklehead alienates any more women ...

Savage faces charges of destroying or misplacing a ballot, and theft, according to online records. [...] Before turning himself in on Tuesday morning, Savage said he was innocent and described the charges as "bumped up."

Did you take it without authorization? That's theft. Did you put it someplace it shouldn't be? That's misplacement.

We have you on video folding them and putting them in your pocket, and cops found them in your car; I don't see how you expect to argue that you're "Innocent".

It's funny how all these "errors" seem to occur in blue areas, isn't it?

Good. Put all of them in prison.

Good, throw them all in jail.
