"If there's no speed limit in a car, it shouldn't belong in a city - it's a race car"

Throttle puts me in a mentality where I don't care about losing gained speed, because gaining it again is so easy. On a regular bike, I try to speed through dangers because "this speed was made with my sweat and I'm not giving it up".

Did high-powered cars lead to more regulations? Why are such cars allowed in cities?

Power is irrelevant. Pedestrian crash severity = speed² × shape impacting human head.
Road-specific speed limits and weight limits have always been enough.

Fuck especially the laws that give 2- and 3-wheelers easier treatment than 4-wheelers:

If you're so damn smart that you can see what trash is what, separate that trash! That's a job for a tireless machine.

Not Fediverse, but an example of what works:

Quora used to have a fantastic crowd-edited question topic ontology/taxonomy for precise feed shaping with thousands of disambiguated topics interlinked in a graph/tree structure, but they enshittified the system away 2023, and now it's all LLM misunderstandings of what the question topics should be. The bot thinks a question is about apples when the question is a mathematics word puzzle; "How many apples...". The excuse for AI tagging was "tags can be abused" when in reality the crowd corrected the abuses quickly and reported the offenders. With the new AI tagger, my feed turned into viral trash from Quora-celebrities, mostly about current news.

They never made the obviously needed features of:

• being able to topic tag answers, not just questions (for when the question is general and the answer is specific, like "What do you think everyone needs to know in 2025?").
• the ability to follow a topic from a user, because most people write about many topics, so a follow-a-user brings uninteresting topics to my feed, but not all people write well about that topic I want to follow, so I'd need to follow that topic from good writers only.

Also microdoses are usually decidoses, but that's irrelevant because in this use mega means large and micro means small. Microcar. Microcomputer.

But what size are microplastics when also mentioning nanoplastics? Are they still "5mm and smaller"?

You can detect impaired driving by observing the car in traffic.

everything is made with fossil fuels and we need them

So let's stop burning them?
