Do you think Elon Musk looking into running for president would end up going roughly the same way as it did for Zuckerberg?

It just cracks me up that like all they need to do is total their car, have it break down, or trade their car in and they'll need to get another surgical procedure done.

Being able to drive your car completely in the nude without having to handle keys probably outweighs this though.

In the Elon death tunnel thread some dude freaked out when people talked about actual subways and mass transit in general. He went off about crackheads and "gangbangers" then darkly alluded that he knew all about what went on in the subways in Tokyo. poo poo was wild

Edit: The whole "gangbangers scratching windows isn't poo poo compared to what goes down on Japanese subways" cracked me up as someone who's spent several years in Japan. The poo poo that goes down is mostly people sleeping. Because you know what people do when they are in a place that makes them feel they are in danger. They sleep.

It is beyond wild as hell to me that people will actually try to argue self-driving cars will cut down on traffic.

Escape From Noise

Even with sharing rides that's still far more vehicles that is still more vehicles per person than solid public transit. At least that's my understanding.

a lot of traffic is caused by the number of cars on the road. that's largely the nature of traffic

But what if the cars actively murdered their passengers? Less people=less cars=less traffic. It's simple math.

Musk fanboys were defending that as how else is he expecting to make change for good unless he's this close to the president to influence him. Next I'll expect them to argue that employing people to talk to politicians and try to influence their votes and decisions in the way that benefits the company is good as well

This was my brother... goddamn.

Yeah...I hate to bad-mouth an entire country but Singapore was one of the most boring trips that I ever took. Their "president" really forced westernization of the country so basically there's not much to see that's of any historical significance. The food is good but there's not really that much else to do other than shopping and a Disneyland. Booze is also really expensive.

I mean, kind of? When the track is open, you can in fact just buy a ticket and drive / ruin your car there. That's why you see footage of DHL delivery vans chasing old Gold cabriolets.
