Jonny 290 posted:i did this 2 weeks ago but with quarter mile walks bookending a light rail ride. not impress'd in the detroit area the public transit system is near non-existent. in my younger days we would sometimes call a taxi (on a non-holiday, weeknight) and be given an hour long wait time for a taxi to arrive.

if you drive a black or silver prius in san francisco people will randomly try to get into your car I took a taxi home from buying a new monitor this weekend, the driver was this cool old guy who's lived in the city since the 50s and I even used an app to hail it

ate all the Oreos posted:the point i was gonna make originally was that, at least here, all the bottled water bottling plants don't pull from the municipal supplies, they pay primo prices to rape our natural beautiful springs directly what point is that, exactly. your municipal supply is coming from the same place

the 'hot springs' bubbling up into the pretty pools downtown in hot springs arkansas are like 93% gas-heated tap water and 7% actual thermal spring water, as is the lower federal bound for legally calling it a hot spring

or even outside the context of uber, think about lots of places people gather and how many of the groups of people there all drove individually, even when some of them live in the same neighborhoods, because thats just how toxic our car culture is

djia is a really realy bad proxy for stocks overall (and an even worse proxy for the economy as a whole)

reminder that the djia is literally just the sum of its component stock prices with an arbitrary scale applied. the sole purpose of the scale is to make sure that the djia keeps the same total value after a component splits; there is no per-component weighting, so a stock that splits 2-1 just loses half its weight in the djia. the only way the djia could possibly be stupider is if it didn't have the scale at all so that it actually tanked on every split
