Two facts:

1. The average occupancy of a car in my North American city is 1.2 people per car. This does not vary much by city.
2. Autonomous vehicles will almost certainly be worse for traffic than human driven cars. They will circle empty with no passengers and drive to pick up passengers empty (dead heading) even with a fully rideshare system. If there is widespread private ownership of autonomous vehicles (and you bet your butt that car companies will campaign for this aggressively to keep sales up), the dead heading problems only multiply. If you don’t believe me, look up any recent literature on the topic: by most accounts it will be worse, not better. Dead heading is only the tip of the iceberg of problems there.

Nobody’s life is in any real danger here. They and all their equipment are roped in on at least 3 redundant anchors (probably a number more). Rock climbing looks scary but with proper precautions and training it is not significantly riskier than other outdoor sports.

The level of ignorance from these commenters who know nothing of the sport but speak with such authority on it really reminds me of the worst of reddit.

Saying maths is absolutely out of place here. Also taxes here aren’t nearly as complicated as the US and there are a number of free tools available to file by yourself.

Connect is a great android app where you can block instances. Though I agree this should be a site wide feature.

Isn’t this obviously an ad for DD?

I’m not sure if you’re joking, but in case you’re not, the bidet sprays clean water from the wall, not dirty water from the bowl.

What they’ve done is reprehensible but this is simply misinformation, that livestream has been up for weeks.

That’s the main joke, yes. There’s also a subjoke that’s a (relatively) obscure internet meme: Loss
