image recognition for autonomous cars is just too hard so everybody else has to embed an rfid chip in their brain or be murdered by a self-driving tesla and then have their estate sued for damage to the tesla's hood

reminds me of Hudson WI (first city after you cross the border from Minnesota to WI), specifically the second exit just garbage

so completely and thoroughly carbrained that they see it as "an useful rest stop!" instead of questioning the framework that lead them to see it this way

Drivers already aren't at fault for killing pedestrians and cyclists, what's a loving beacon gonna change lol. This is just a formal declaration that if you're killed by an "AI", it's your fault no matter what

Last night I stopped by the worst part of town (the newest shopping development) and realized how popular it is on Saturday nights--parking lot was packed and stores/restaurants/theater full of people--and I don't understand how this has replaced malls. It's the same stores as a mall would have, but there's no interior for walking around and socializing. Just parking and walking directly into the store. Is it mostly that newer developments beat aging malls?

These outdoor things provide even more atomization and (very important) less space for Those drat Teens to loiter all day and get into trouble. You really want to go to the mall and have to walk around between different stores? Nah, you want to go into store A, buy some poo poo, get back in your car, drive to the other end of the massive parking lot, get more poo poo at store B, etc.

i was in the peace corps when the pandemic hit, got evacuated from my country and stuck in some lovely hotel in a DC suburb with all the other volunteers i was in country with. only things around were fast food joints, but sit in dining was closed at all of them. we had just gotten off a plane so none of us had cars, so while we were in a holding pattern waiting for our chartered flights back home, the only way we could eat outside of continental breakfast was to call ubers to take us through the taco bell drive thru

You really want to go to the mall and have to walk around between different stores? Nah, you want to go into store A, buy some poo poo, get back in your car, drive to the other end of the massive parking lot, get more poo poo at store B, etc. modern "outdoor malls" are usually some form of mixed-development with apartments over retail with usually park/walking adjacent large sidewalks with parking usually directed slightly offsite to a few lots instead of surrounded by frontal lots. the primary problem with "indoor malls" is b/c cars bad; but secondary problems is they're loving huge requiring lots of AC and poo poo, have no apartments or mixed-use, typically isolated out in the exurbs surrounded by freeways and parking, and the concept of large "anchor store" with a giant macys or nodrstroms is a massive footprint that nobody really needed or uses having a ton of dead space. this would be a fairly typical "modern outdoor mall" still absolute hell but a different form of hell. at least you get some vitamin d from it Mayor Dave posted:Those shopping centers are the carbrained way of emulating walkable downtowns, a downtown you have to drive to

They still make fancy strip malls like the one I was talking about. It's the place to be on Saturday night for families and teens apparently.
