This diagram is only missing that one super speed zone into another dimensions high speed internet that is hidden up in the attic during the season just before Christmas as you dig through your stored belongings and wonder why you have so many dumb yard inflatables.
According to the Texas Department of Transportation, pedal error car accidents are defined as “accidents caused by unintentional acceleration or braking due to driver error.” These types of accidents can result in injuries, property damage, and even fatalities.
16k drivers who don’t have the proper skills to control their vehicules, this sounds like 16k too much to me, doesn’t matter the total number of drivers. It’s like drunk drivers, 1 fatality is already too much.
This is some boomer nonsense. I can’t find 2 sources that seem to agree on specific numbers, but several sources, and my personal experience, agree that gas prices peaked in 2008 after the one two punch of Katrina and the housing market collapse
I started driving in 2006 and bought my first car in 2008 and I can confidently say that I’m paying less for gas now than I was when I started driving and I’m not even talking about adjusting for inflation. Are prices too high? Yeah, probably. But this “then vs now” shit just ain’t true
Fair. But isn’t complaining about gas prices America’s largest export?
Just checked some other countries and it seems like Canada is the only one that breaks this general pattern, though it’s obviously not rigorous research
Edit: Also, I don’t really care. I was just venting some frustration to The Internet
The fed subsidizes the shit out of our fuel because the car industry is lobbying it to because the car industry knows that if Americans pay what the rest of the modern world does for gas, then chugga chugga choo choo motherfuckers, we’re finally building some goddamned trains.
That, or they won’t get to sell their huge, overly marked up trucks to middle class suburbanites anymore.
Either of those things would be good for everyone.
I’d also support regulation that bans modifying the ride height of a vehicle. All bumpers should align as a factory spec. We made 70s cars ugly because they required 5 mph bumpers, but we won’t tell Cletus he can’t make his truck bumper sit at neck level so that he doesn’t wipe out a family of four in a Toyota Corolla when he blows through a red light? Horseshit.
I can confidently say the cheapest price I ever saw gas was in 2008. Gas is currently twice as much as that, and two years ago it was almost 4 times as much.
I strongly think that OP is trolling ITT, but if someone seriously thinks this is an argument for gambling, I recommend checking out some introductory stochastics concepts, starting with expectation values
When is the pizza ready? When has it approached zero?!
We gotta get these pies moving cousin. 10 minutes or less or it’s free, that’s what big Tony says. We never should have let you take over operations, cousin, not with your fancy math degree. I felt bad because you couldn’t find job anywhere else. But what gabagool. What will mother say? You’re going to make her cry.
Wired + Mesh Wifi is the best combo. House not wired? Try powerline Ethernet. It does degrade the more you have so I only have it for my computer and PS5.
That’s what I have. My house is quite long, so I’m guessing my landlord ran a cable from the front wall in the lounge through to the office/bedroom at the back upstairs. As a result, we have two mesh nodes hardwired to the router, then a wireless one in the middle to just fill in any gaps. I’ve never had better wifi.
Smarter every day recently had a talk with NASA engineers where he said something that resonated with me.
“Its often discussed that if you could go back in time, you could change one thing, and observe a huge change in the following events.
But we never consider that we have that same power right now, today. Actions now can influence a wide variety of future outcomes.”
With some self reflection you can be the time traveler of scifi.
Some things are out of our control, but many are not, and simple changes, say, about our personal wellness or how we treat others can have big ramifications.
