Bikers really need their own infrastructure that's kept entirely apart from where cars are. Bikes and cars sharing the same road is terrifyingly unsafe for both.

Youtube has started to artificially slow down video load times if you use Firefox. Spoofing Chrome magically makes this problem go away.
Adding this to your uBlock Origin filters also makes the problem go away:

Rate of suicide in the U.S. peaks among older men, a hard demographic to reach
Reply in thread
That's not just an idea - its physical reality. You can't get your physical needs met in old age if you didn't win the lotto. Suicide is the retirement plan for most of us non-boomers.

Canada faces declining EV interest, report shows, despite push to boost sales
The Tesla brand has become distasteful due to the owner's antics, and no other carmaker builds an EV that's capable of long range travel due to a lack of quick charge capability and infrastructure.
edit: "the owners" meaning the person who owns the company, ie Elon, not the people who bought the cars. Apostrophe added for clarity.

Russell T Davies responds to long-standing fan theory
“The whole thing about the Nation estate saying Daleks have to appear once a year/series to keep the licence, that’s not true is it?”
“They’re the Daleks. It’s Doctor Who. Nothing weird about using them at all.”
That doesn't answer the question though, does it?

GM’s big bet on driverless cars turns sour
Reply in thread
The insurance companies will go for it if the data shows driverless cars cause fewer accidents and lower claims versus human drivers, but it seems like that data will be a long time coming because right now the court of public opinion goes nuts when a driverless car hits someone while ignoring all the times that a human does the same. It makes no sense, and I hope the insurance companies can make it make sense soon.

That's still too cheap.
There's probably a price that could be paid to encourage a higher birth rate, but I doubt the governments who have attempted such programs were willing to aim high enough.

Or maybe an accessibility improvement. You don't need to practice creating your own works of art over many years anymore, or have enough money to commission a master artist. The AI artists are good enough and work for cheap.
