That's what I'm saying. Proper public transit that gets places on schedule. Not the current best-effort crap across most of the US, if your area even has public transit to begin with.

I don't care how cheap a Lyft or Uber looks, it's being subsidized (venture cap, baybee) to be cheap. Just like the gas you put in a (non EV) car.

You're not selling me on "just another app bro". You've been captured by the automotive industry. The whole country has.

Yep! That's how your car picks it's own four tires out of a parking lot full of tires yelling their pressure.

I don't want to waymo to work, I want an economic mass-transit solution. One car one person is not, and never will be economical.

How much does insurance, legal representation, a department to argue with insurers, etc cost the hospital?

Why not invest in public transit for a change maybe?

Absolutely! I mean, they didn't start the fire so why are we mad at them for fueling the fire?? It's not their fault!!

IPv6 DOES support NAT.

If you've got a car that can't go 100, that doesn't mean nobody can, or that it doesn't exist. I don't care if you can't do it, it IS supported in the spec.

Not that person, thanks for your opinion though.

If evocative language is communication to you, don't communicate with me again, please.

I'm not reading that. Thanks, but you're wasting your time. Go troll somewhere else.

Are you trying to get me to say I won't strike first? Because I will.

I don't want harm to befall anyone, but some people genuinely just want to hurt others. That's not tolerable.

Go troll somewhere else.

I'm not silencing you. We both have the freedom to speak at the same time, in the same place. Such as a political speaker and opposing protesters. Both have the freedom.

I figure as technology progresses, we'll get more/tighter beams for more efficiency, especially if something like 5G massive MIMO could ever work on a satellite.

You have the freedom to speak, I have the freedom to also speak at the same time. I ALSO have the freedom to not listen.

I'm trans. Why do I need to tolerate someone who not only hates me, but would revel in watching me die?
