Yes? You arrange the fastest cars at the front and the slowest cars at the back, and the whole blob of traffic spreads out.

If people pass quickly, then get out of the left lane, nobody needs to brake and start a compression wave

EMS hate motorcycles and decorative throw rugs.

What work was that?
- Comment on 20 hours ago:
Secret is to play the game next to a semi. Some semis kinda do it too by engine braking as they see the wave approaching
- Comment on He really said this, look it up! 20 hours ago:
Kind of, but his later works indicate he had developed a slightly less linear understanding.

Fascism doesn’t have to model reality, just knit together a story that confirms underlying biases of the “middle class” without questioning the system that privileged them, but is failing.
Leftists have the advantage in that we can describe exactly why your material conditions are eroding while we are more productive than ever, but for someone who was privileged under capitalism, its easier to believe the system that privileged them is good and just, its just foreigners and minorities who are exploiting them.

That doesnt really match my experience, every region has a distinct reason they don’t use turn signals; American drivers are too self-centered to signal, Indian drivers don’t use the turn signals because it broke 12 years and 800,000km ago, Vietnamese drivers/riders are too busy on their phones or stretching their legs to use a turn signal (vinfast drivers are just afraid it will drain the battery), South Korean drivers will have already made the turn or merge by the time the light reaches other drivers so they don’t bother.

Every driver in China is like that. The popular consensus seems to be if other drivers know what you plan to do, they will use it against you.
- Comment on VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power 1 week ago:
features that they can’t afford to maintain
That logic might work for GPS service, but the example in the article is a bike where the battery has limited discharge rate and capacity, whose limits are increased via software if you pay a subscription.
- Comment on VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power 1 week ago:
The way the article frames it as “why pay for what you don’t need” is so bad.
Nah, you already paid for it, the part is physically in the motorcycle.

Might save someone else a similar experience.

The rotational inertia of Einstein boring through the planet is responsible for leap seconds.

Nah, Witcher 2’s combat was an improvement, but still bad enough I know multiple people who gave up due to seemingly impossible fights.

I mean Obama and Henry Kissenger got Nobel Peace Prizes.
- Comment on Just one more 2 months ago:
The traffic in Beijing and even more so Seoul really disappointed me. Why do so many people drive when theres subways and buses every 2 minutes at rush hour? I mean I get Beijing a little, all the roads are so wide and the subway stations are so massive, but seoul even has dedicated bus lanes that beat cars at rush hour, and people still drive.

Do you know if theres another “low drama, federate with most everyone” instance .ee users are headed to? .ml is fine, but it requires a VPN here in China.

That exists, you can get switch form factor hall effect joysticks on aliexpress.

450 USD and they won’t spend an extra 40 cents on hall effect sticks?
- Comment on Anon pitches a new game 2 months ago:
No, going for the sure thing is why we have EA pumping out COD and a dozon sports games identical to last years every year.
- Comment on Ads when you’re pumping gas 2 months ago:
Protip: moving to a place where it takes effort to understand the language turns ads into a dadaist experience.

I mean I’d rather China know everything about me than America, since as an American citizen, America is a much bigger threat.
But lets be honest, whether I get an iphone, samsung, or huawei, both countries are going to have all my data.

Already on it, that’s kind of the core of all of my political activity and organizing.

I’m not Jeff Bezos or Bill Gates, I’m not the one stealing their surplus value. I’d be happy to help them take back what they’re owed though.
