I’m glad I watched some video on this I vaguely recalled, as I may have accidentally thrown a shaver away because it wasn’t charging…
The community title must have influenced me haha
As I’m from Australia and also say maths
I think metric is not your native system.
45 km/h is very very fast, like world record fast.
A jog is more like 12 km/h
What kind of stupid-ass system of government allows an executive to repeal laws?
The celebrations when Thatcher died we’re very appropriate
Thanks for sending this through, I don’t think this guy is Australian though. Definitely not grown up here anyway.
What a fucking shit guy though.
I think the original commenter means that Google got off with a tap on the wrist
We’re they being serious? If so, please do share their name.
Also, do you mean 2GB?
Whole different line up on KGB radio I’d imagine haha
Oh, I never knew this was a thing (also Voyager user), thanks!
\ is the escape character in markdown. Gotta do a double \ and then another \ for the underscore
¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯ =

I wasn’t even aware there were any because the client I use (Voyager) doesn’t have them.
What the fuck. When are you required to do so?
Not in practice, but they do claim to be (and in fairness, do some things in a more “socialist” way - looking at you privatisation in the west…)
I think this what OOP means with “aesthetics”, it’s that they claim to be a socialist state, when in many ways, it’s rather capitalist.
Regardless, holding up any country as a beacon of all that is good is pretty silly, if you ask me.
No where (that I know of) should be emulated in every regard.
I get this is a joke, but speed limits shouldn’t be set by politicians (which I’m hearing apparently is/was a thing?). Politicians have a role to play in getting regulations standards re-written by people who understand the decades of research on this.
Speeding is mostly a design issue, but I still expect people actually follow the rules.
Strong Towns, NotJustBikes, City Beautiful, Practical Engineering, among others have made great videos on this topic.
A lot of people justify speeding, and it’s kinda dumb, if you ask me.
Just because you “feel” it’s safe, doesn’t mean it actually is.
Plus, there’s a fantastic way to reduce road deaths, just have fewer cars, switch to public transport, but that takes a long time to implement if the political will doesn’t exist.
Engineers should absolutely include traffic calming features to get people to naturally slow down, but everyone should drive the limit.
Speed kills, kinetic energy is not linear.
Cars are tonnes of metal hurtling down the road. Thousands upon thousands die every year, and since the increased prevalence of massive US style trucks fatalities have RISEN, undoing decades of progress. (Both in the US, and elsewhere)
People driving 20 over the limit are arseholes (or have been influenced by car centric infrastructure and culture). Change my mind.
Speeding is never okay. Just that lots of people have convinced themselves it’s no big deal.
This take makes a lot of sense, fair enough.
I guess I’m just expecting the worse because of all the norms they’re breaking. Maybe not a war, but I would not be surprised if the CIA leans on us a little more heavily than they already have (allegedly, but let’s be honest, very likely).
I’m still (probably naively) hoping people wake the fuck up and resist like their lives depended up it.
Honestly at this point, because of first past the post, this probably splits the establishment vote. Which I personally think is hilarious (ranked choice being implemented would be better, of course).
