Teslas don't "run" stop signs and reporting them doing so is shoddy journalism. To begin with their pace would more accurately be characterised as a gentle amble,

Tesla Pro has an Gradius option pod that swaps the stop sign for a yield/give way sign as you approach and then switches it back after.

I was fined for not coming to a full stop at a stop sign in france so if the tesla can just do that for me I'm fine with that. As long as I can pay the fine in bitcoin.

I do think liberal and/or TERF writers definitely come across as people who have never spoken to any women with kids or jobs outside of their weird circlejerk jurno pals. It's how they end up thinking the greatest oppression Women(TM) experienced was by those in the 70's who decided to wear trousers rather than a pencil skirt to their yuppie jobs in London. thrashingteeth fucked around with this message at 19:09 on Feb 2, 2022 |

The yanks *do* love a stop sign where a give way (okay "yield") would work a thousand times better though. One that sticks in my mind was way the gently caress out in the Mojave, to join a stretch of highway that runs dead straight for 8 miles in one direction and 2 in the other, and which (I counted) had 3 vehicles pass in 5 minutes. Also the positioning of the stop line would (I think, I was on a bike so couldn't confirm) actually put the highway right in the A-pillar blind spot when you were stopped at it, for even more fun, although this is apparently because most of their stop lines are set considerably back from the actual junction because so many people sail through them *then* look. Those of you following along at home by the way will be entirely unsurprised that the junction was one of the entrances to the Nevada Test Site and Area 51, but I bottled my original plan to go and look at the actual fence, 2 miles down the road and just turned round when I saw the first "We're going to shoot you" sign. e: The road actually runs to where I really do all my posting from: goddamnedtwisto fucked around with this message at 19:21 on Feb 2, 2022 |

Being a Camo Dude at Groom Lake must be a hell of a boring job. "What do you do all day?" "Sit in a big SUV staring at a gate in the middle of a desert, and if anyone gets too close to it I drive down and tell them to go away." Or have they all been replaced with drones by now?

Probably less boring than guarding, say, Nellis or Creech (the two non- USAF bases in the area) because at least sometimes when the movement sensor goes off you get to go scare the poo poo out of a nerd rather than it just being another coyote.

It is nice to think nobody will dig up my corpse and use me as a sock puppet when I am dead. I mean if you literally want to do that that's fine but metaphorically doing it to lend weight to your own terrible ideas would be annoying, if I weren't dead.

I think one of my top annoyances at the moment is people who 'don't do politics,' who know gently caress all about it, refuse to learn and desperately want to go back to not having to know anything, but nevertheless feel the need to stick their loving oar in with their stunning ignorance.

My mum used to say "I don't do politics", yet she used to volunteer as a poll clerk for the electoral commission, used to be a member of the local Conservative club, digested all the far right opinions over the decade and VOTED TORY IN EVERY ELECTION. But she doesn't do politics, like....

It's hilarious that politicians keep leaving all these little traps that rely on the PM going "Okay, I'll do that" and all Boris has to keep saying is "Hmmm... no, I don't think I will" or ignore them entirely. You have no formalized processes, you mugs, and your gentleman's agreement poo poo is a sham.
