face masks seem common enough in japan for people to be exposed to it frequently enough and at a young enough age to imprint it as a fetish, so theres that

That's gotta be installed backwards, right? How the gently caress. Like it doesn't even look like a normal headrest.

i can't speak to the average nyc transit rider in comparison to a two year old, but in other cities people do manage to mostly wear masks while in environments that don't allow physical distancing, such as buses and streetcars. with enough people wearing masks the risk of transmission drops significantly, especially in conjunction with proper hand washing, etc. source: me, a torontonian transit user

do the headrests not raise? for that kind of headrest you're supposed to have the back of your head at the bottom of the headrest and the "forward" part goes over your head. it supposedly helps a lot with rear end wrecks. though on second look maybe they're not that type because it looks like they're just bent forward? either thing they were intending to do they hosed up

nobody ever sat in that seat after someone drew it up until they already made a thousand of them and are just pushing through this is why it’s great that Tesla makes their own seats for some reason

Max Facetime posted:Japan’s subway travelers probably put on face masks at the first hint of a new virus, as this wasn’t the first virus to appear in the area and the masks they already had at hand pretty much the entirety of tokyo was masked up and a lot were wearing gloves when I was there in early february. i recommend skepticism of any government declaration that claims something that helps keep money flowing is in fact safe, cool, and good. japan’s government is highly suspect given that they were going to baghdad bob levels of denial as long as it seemed like the olympics were still happening this year.

there are reasons why new york was hit harder than other places and NY public transit is most likely one of them. it's probably still fine while many people are working from home since cars should be pretty empty. things will get interesting as the reopening ramps up.

people don't test drive those things do they? I don't think it quite occurred to me before that most of these people just click some buttons and a car appears later (sometimes much later) but at no point have they actually driven one before

i think test drives are pretty rare. you DEFINITELY probably arent going to get to test drive the exact car you would receive before they sell it to you. every buyer trip report ive read in the past year was "yeah i waited 3 hours in line, they made me sign paperwork, tossed me the key and said i had 30 seconds to leave the property"

they incentivized customers declining to test drive by offering more of the free battery-destroying supercharge service

lmao more space trash launched today??? jfc e: quote:In this start, SpaceX is testing an umbrella that will protect the reflective surfaces from sunlight during the flight over the twilight zones. This should make the StarLink satellites appear less noticeable in the sky when they have reached their operational orbits. sure sure sure

I’ll believe it when I (don’t) see it. The “darksat” was a wet fart and not, I think, launched in good faith. “When they have reached their operational orbits” is a hell of a qualifier because given the scale of the planned constellation and the short lifetime of satellites in it, there will always be some satellites in the process of boosting to higher orbit.

Err, basically every anecdote in that article reads like normalization of deviance which will eventually get someone killed or an expensive launch pad destroyed: https://arstechnica.com/science/2020/06/forget-dragon-the-falcon-9-rocket-is-the-secret-sauce-of-spacexs-success/ Framed as brave entrepreneurialism, the kind of gumption and readiness to improvise that is needed to get into space before the company goes bankrupt (again).
