People typically get paid to earn a PhD, so this person’s debt likely came from elsewhere, unless they grossly overpaid for their undergraduate education.

Why aren’t any raids being reported in Texas?

I’ve noticed this as well, first time was Texas in 2020. I’d lived in other places prior and never noticed it. I’ve sinced moved away from Texas, and the bahavior is a lot less common here. I couldn’t figure out why people did it. My theory is, people initially stop at a reasonable distance from the next car and pull out their phone. The next car moves a bit forward for some reason, and the person on their phone doesn’t notice.

I believe Santa Claus has already done this

I can’t help but detect some passive hostility in your response.

Not in the US apparently

I didn’t know sony made phones

Alright what phone are you using with a jack?

That’s not simple. That’s very specific, and you really listen for 10 solid hours? Also if you’re dropping 10 hour flight money… I feel like there’s a wireless solution in your price range

I bet if your parents seduced him he’d probably be more open to having sex in their house.

The battery? Mine last at least 8 hours and charge in two.

Okay, I’m going to ask… why don’t you use wireless?

Edit: some results are in, and the only reasonable answer is better audio quality, although that’s probably no longer true. The rest are fairly weak reasons.

Lol’d at the 10m extension cord though, thanks for that one.

Get an old leaf with a new battery?

How can an attacker control the steering?

I agree. We obviously need to make huge changes to how we live asap, but it seems so profoundly stupid to let a few unelected people break things without a collectively agreed upon plan in place.

I can’t believe you’ve done this to me

So this guy helps create a technology that turns bots up to 11 and then he turns around to sell us a privacy invasive solution to the problem he created? What a fucking asshole.

Sounds like you’ve thought about this a bit so you’ll be fine. Everything you may need can be bought in route if necessary. Perhaps download offline maps for your navigation app in case you don’t have cell service.

Maybe pack some healthy food? This is going to sound silly, but I like to buy small heads of green and purple cabbage and just eat the leaves raw while driving. It can keep you from buying junk at a gas station.

You could do some worst case prep, like have a couple gallons of water in the car and other things to keep yourself alive and comfortable in case the car breaks down somewhere inconvienent. If you have time you can buy a roadside assistance plan from AAA or similar so you can get towed to a mechanic, but you very likely won’t need it.

I’ve been driving for over 20 years and I’ve never had a car break down in route. Just make sure the tire pressure is fine, the tires aren’t shit, and there are adequate levels of engine oil and engine coolant. That’s all you can really do.

.world is basically reddit. Sometimes I wonder why they left. Everywhere else has a delightfully different vibe.

Simetimes I think the future will resemble the pre-internet era. AI content will be so easy to create that the zone will be flooded with shit, and only a few reputable sources will be trusted, like when there were only a few TV news channels.
