Hey I was on the staff of my high school newspaper and we took our journalism very seriously.

They did. > The buggy update doesn't appear to brick the car immediately. Instead, the failure appears to occur while driving—a far more serious problem.

Natural gas is not as bad as coal but that’s an extremely low bar. I can’t find any support for your claim that natural gas is “a few percent” of the “pollution” of natural gas. In GHG terms natural gas is still a fossil fuel that emits CO2

That’s the value proposition of banks actually. Unfortunately we have let them delegate responsibility for fraud.

The random porn in a JRPG chat is concerning but how does age verification prevent that? Channels have to opt in and participants have to follow the rules, right? Isn’t the real issue that you don’t know and trust all the participants perso

It doesn’t. Trains cover the same distances as airplanes. Take a train across Washington, or anywhere, most of the stops are small towns. Light rail, busses, and robotaxis cover sprawl.

Train tracks are the train tracks of the future. Trains are far more efficient than cars, especially at scale.

Sounds like a train. The robo taxi links the last few miles to transit. I recently travelled from my house in Seattle to my office in SF without ever getting in a car. I walked more in the airport than I did anywhere else. Home -> Walk

40kg of fuel per minute is a lot but airplanes carry a lot of people. Web searches suggest a 737-800 gets about 0.5mpg at cruise. With 189 passengers in a one-class layout that’s 95mpg per passenger. With 162 in a two-class layout that’s

Cool, thanks! Any suggestions on how to get something like that implemented in my city?

It’s not a 1% increase in fuel costs. It’s 1% of 3% (for 80% mitigation) to 17% (for total mitigation). That’s a 0.03% to 0.17% increase in fuel costs.
