ParticipantTracking buses where fares can be paid for with (anonymous) cash or cards re-filled with cash: not evil.
Tracking ALL vehicles which are tied to an identity: evil.
ParticipantFortunately, the US generally lacks respect for life when guns and cars are involved — they’re emotional, not rational issues. If gun control is any guide, it will fortunately be a slow painful process. The lives lost in obstruction of progress are worth the slowing of the degradation of privacy — life in an absolutely safe, controlled society isn’t worth living.
ParticipantElectric cars are great.
Autonomous cars phoning home, spying on people, recording, logging, data-mining, slicing, and dicing their trips are a fucking awful idea.As far as pedestrians — there need to be better means than “footbridges and elevators” to address the issue before lights and stops go away. Imagine how many crossing points, lights, stop signs there are in the US as a whole, then imagine the cost of bridging each one.
Frankly, let’s hope that North Korea orbitally smacks the HQs of a few firms working on this self-driving shit before it gets lobbied into existence. Or just hacks them into the stone age.
ParticipantPlanting w33d in busybodies’ flowerpots can also be a full-time job 🙂
ParticipantI think we should have more uncaught perpetrators. If the America rich know they’re liable to have their cars burnt or their nuts kicked, maybe they won’t be so smug about defunding things that help average/poor people.
ParticipantDomestic violence sounds more like meth or crack than potheads.
BTW, are the loiterers white or Asian? If they were, would you still be bothered by them?
ParticipantIf people want do-gooder shits like FlyerInHI running their lives, they can move to Iran.
Then again, maybe I misunderstood — does “get riding drug users” mean that you like to “ride” drug users?

ParticipantJeez – I grew up in a complex that had first-come-first-served parking as long as you lived there. It worked fine. Why does everything need to be assigned, marked, and enforced 100%? I’d just park in his spot.
Participantabsolutely not. I empathise more with the riff raff than wealth creating techbros. frankly, NYC was better in the early 90s pre Rudy.
ParticipantThe network isn’t for you and me. It’s for “them” to deploy more sensors, cameras, connected cars, and other forms of intrusion into the environment, cheaply.
ParticipantDepends how irrational the markets are willing to get 🙂
ParticipantThey weren’t expected to hike in January, but 3-4 hikes vs two this year will be nice. 5%, here we come. Watch out, HELOC-holders!!!
