I taught myself by playing a license plate game, referring to the cars around me by their phonetic license plates “what’re you doing bravo whiskey foxtrot foxtrot? You’re turning right but indicating left!” It makes road rage more fun.

2·16 days agoWild response. If someone is willing and able to afford it, and the animal’s quality of life remains reasonable, why?

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Tim Cook Warned by CIA That China Could Move on Taiwan by 2027
0·2 months agoWhat? Why? As in, why Tim Cook aka Tim Apple? I’m so confused, why are tech oligarchs getting CIA briefings? And this is normal?
If it wasn’t so dystopian, I’d be for it. Self driving cars that you can book as needed would require less space be devoted to parking and one vehicle could serve as transportation for more people. Combined with easy and accessible public transit and thoughtful pedestrian and cyclist-friendly city design, being less reliant on vehicles sounds like a dream. If you could book the equivalent of an Uber and have it be available within 5 minutes for a reasonable price, why wouldn’t you? In such a scenario, cars would only be for hobbyists. Those who aren’t able to drive (elderly, people with disabilities) would have more equitable access to, well, anything that requires you to physically be somewhere.
Truthfully though, I don’t see a place where capatilism would allow this to happen. Selling everyone their own vehicle, with their own maintenance fees (and now subscription fees), accessories, fuel, etc… is way too lucrative.
