Between this, electric skateboards and scooters, and the half dozen other devices I've seen popping up - every day we're inching farther along a trajectory to Wall-E status. These devices are inherently anti-walking and anti-exercise (contrasted to, say, a car, which can be used as such, but also provides utility far beyond what walking can accomplish).

- nkoren 11y agoCars are infinitely more anti-walking, inasmuch as they require the creation of non-walkable environments (and, correspondingly, the elimination of walkable environments). These, in contrast, can easily coexist with walking.
