The guy that can't deliver self driving cars wants to talk about self driving planes?
Your comment reminded me of this russian song I recently found on youtube about Lenin rising from his grave (because he wasn't actually dead), growing into a giant, and flying around destroying the current russian government. It really is something to behold.
Maybe when these guys wash up on shore they can start cleaning up all the crude oil their shitty boats left there last week. (Yeah I know, different sea)
I'm sorry, what
If it's negotiating at 100 base-T then I'm definitely kink shaming
Strictly talking about safe speed in relation to other traffic, and no mention of road conditions or other factors, I had it explained to me once that speed limits are safe speeds when you're the only one on the road. When there's one other car, the safest speed is the exact same speed as the other car. You will never hit that car if you're both going the same speed (This also implies/requires safe stopping distances because you slow down with them). That's really the heart of it, whatever minimizes possible interactions with other vehicles keeps you safe. It sounds like a duh statement but its where the conversation should be based around - relative speed not actual speed. Once it's more than just you and another car, the safest speed is the average flow of traffic across all lanes. If it's rush hour and the locals are ALL doing 10-over (it definitely happens), you are being unsafe if you are driving the speed limit in ANY lane specifically because every single car on that highway passes you and each passing is an opportunity for an accident. If/when you have to pass in traffic, always try to pass vehicles no faster than 5mph faster than the other vehicle, any faster and you are the definition of 'he came out of nowhere'. That works in the other direction too - if you aren't comfortable with speeding along with the whole highway, try not to be going less than 5mph under the average speed, posted speed limit be damned.
The punisher wouldnt do what any of those bootlickers do, but his logo is still on the back of half the police cruisers.
Guess we're even
I switched to vape, not necessarily to drop nicotine, but so i could smoke in company vehicles. I haven't stopped vaping for a few years now.
I'm in no way saying the habit is healthy or nice, but there's still a net positive to switching even if you don't end up stopping.
It's cheaper overall. A little over a pack a day is basically $10/day. I probably spend $60 on juice and $10 for coils in a month, and that's a high estimate. One coil can last a few months sometimes, other times they're duds. The initial cost is what can look expensive. $100 for a good rig, but it can last years if you get the right one. (I save money by using a rig that takes 18650 batteries and scavenge them from dead electronics - they're everywhere, power tool batteries, hoverboards, etc. Otherwise it's an extra $10 every 6 months)
It also doesn't dry me out like cigarettes. Cigarettes used to cause my sinuses to bleed in the morning and just clog my sinuses through the day. Vape keeps me a little more hydrated it feels like, like even the cough is more fluid and comes right up. No more dry coughing at all.
Don't even get me started with the smell.
It's worth mentioning too, there's a difference between the nic salts and the juice. The salts are where you can experience OD and even seizures.
