I think also bans “coal-rolling” … If that wasn’t already illegal.

• Dancing.
• Tattoos.
• Foreskins.
• Shrimp buffets.

Interpretation
Proximity to traffic and high air interchange increased the exposure to air pollution of commuters using motorised transport. Larger inhalation rates and commuting time increased inhaled dose among active commuters. Benefits of active commuting from physical activity are larger than the risk from an increased inhaled dose of fine particles.

I’ve often wondered about the net effect. Interesting.

Recently our county sheriff put out an Amber Alert (a forced alert on all mobile devices) but the obfuscated link resolved to Twitter.

I wonder what portion of the public saw the Twitter login page and just closed the tab, never to see the details of the child abduction.

Reggie immediately chooses violence and Betty is so ready to conspire.

Maybe this more of a misheard lyrics thing, but for a long time I thought “noxious gas” had to do with nitrogen oxides (NOx), and then spread to other metaphorical applications like “noxious weeds” and so on.

Just don’t make it weird.

I think homelessness and despair cause mental illness and substance abuse. If we can prevent “normal” people from losing their homes, I think they would be more stable and able to take care of themselves long term.

Allowing homelessness is far more costly to everyone else than preventing it.

Setting aside the topic of generative AI, isn’t it about time that Pokemon goes to the public domain?

It’s been a long time since I read Lawrence Lessig, but I think we would undo Disney’s mods to copyright laws and allow more cultural remixing after a reasonable time. Like maybe 20 years instead of a century?

An EV engineer friend of mine said that this is specifically the Hertz Teslas because Tesla parts are expensive and sometimes hard to get. So when a Tesla breaks, they sell it rather than repair it.

I rented a Bolt EV from Hertz once. The car was fine, but the charging stations in the area were mostly broken, or they required downloading an app and giving personal information to charge.

I got the feeling the charging networks are all about collecting government incentives and the sale of private information from subscribers, and not at all about service.

My new preferred rental car is no rental car at all.

Ohm my god, right‽

I enjoyed the humor, but the OP did set a boundary of [serious].

So I guess what we are learning here is that setting boundaries is always going to provoke some people to break those boundaries out of spite.

The conviction was about a year after the crimes, which is a lot faster than I would expect than in my country. 5.5 years does seem light to me, too.

The rhetoric is still somewhat apologetic to the perpetrators. Like “it’s difficult for students to resist due to a sense of closeness to their teachers” doesn’t say anything about rank, authority, and power that teachers have over students. And “checking whether a teacher is under excessive pressure” seems to redirect fault away from the perpetrator.

I wondered if the weapon was a Taser or cattle prod… But it says “deadly weapon” so maybe it was some kind of custom supervillain lighting gun.⚡
