They can't cross any other tracks/roads. I.e. everything else must go above/below it.

I drive a Tesla, and I can definitely say they're very overpriced for what they are. I also hate the association with Musk. But... I've driven a few other EVs over the last few months and ffs... the mindnumbingly stupid decisions in their control software is frankly unforgivable. It feels those cars are still designed by and for people who didn't have internet in their 40s. For example: all of them don't remember some or all of the driving characteristics I set them to (regen breaking strength for example). It's idiotic. And they all use some processor that's out of date even for phones generations back. And that car is supposed to last 10 years??? Why? On the face of it, I don't particularly like Tesla, but damn the competition is doing everything they can to stay behind, it feels...

A while back he (Musk) posted that individual blocklists are relatively expensive (cpu wise) to run, which is true. This has been getting much worse with the whole blue check debacle. People are blocking those idiots en masse. I'm fairly sure this is just a cost saving measure.

Don't bother. There is no actual intelligence or reason there.

Yeah, I'd be a bit more careful about making statements on physics education. The setup in itself is breaking physics itself. Arguing about what would happen is like saying "if we ignore the rules, what would happen according to the rules?". It's theoretical either way and there's no correct answer.

Yup, I second NextDNS. It works perfectly, and the free tier is enough for my mobile, wife's mobile and my desktop. AdGuard is included, as are dozens of other (selectable) lists.

That's speculation. We don't know the nature of the singularity or even if it is a singularity.

In that case you totally don't. But many ISPs only allow their own routers/modems or require some very specific abilities from 3rd-party routers usually only found on more high end (expensive) models. So sometimes the last resort is double NATing (which is fine for most users).

Oh damn... This will catch on quick. Lol

My wife is pregnant. In her last month now. The discomfort and sacrifices woman go through... I've been joking that if it were men being the ones going through pregnancy, we would've perfected incubating the fetus in a machine or something decades ago. Also, 12 months of paid paternity leave, at the minimum. I'm not sure I'm joking...

We need a bot for this. Synopsis should be added to the tldr-bot or something.

Totally fair. Societal pressure is something to completely ignore though. Everyone doing the 'pressuring' can go fuck right off.

I have a kid. Second one on the way. I also don't like kids. None of them. I tolerate mine. I mean, I do all the good parenty things and stuff, but I can't wait for them to grow into adults.

That's the whole reason I want kids. Not because I want kids. But because I want adults I can call my children. Frankly, I don't know why, I just know I do. And I'm prepared to make the endless sacrifices that come with it. And I totally understand other people who don't want to do it.

Also, I hope to be able to raise some decent humans. The world can use those. It seems like assholes are breeding like crazy. I hope to offset that a little.
