  • Brain says bad. Because I’ll be there, working on trying to get a new shiny ship and then the brain is like… “You make 40$ an hour overtime. That’s a lot more ship than doing this.” or "instead of checking in on your skill queue every day for two years to make sure it’s optimal $300 worth of plex and you have your dream toon. "

    And yeah… I know myself. I need to avoid games that make that lil voice pop up.







  • You know what? Yeah you’re right, that’s just a motorcycle with pedals and probably could do a lot of force if it hits a pedestrian and probably should just be treated like a motorcycle.

    I have a cutesy little escooter that I feel like has a better chance of harming someone by picking it up and using it as a blunt weapon than trying to run them over at 15 mph. Make no mistake, riding on sidewalks is still super dangerous and shouldn’t be done if there is any chance of a pedestrian, but you’d think they would just build proper infrastructure instead of limit them. If they had a bike lane with passing space, they could be as beastly as they want while passing me.



  • The obsession with scooter and bike speeds that don’t have the mass to seriously hurt people at top speed is crazy.

    Like you can find videos of people being hit at top speed by scooters/bikes, usually the pedestrian is pretty fine but rightfully annoyed. Every fatal accident I can find is the escooter/ebiker was hit by a car.

    Fingers crossed they stop being dumb and just make actual infrastructure for micromobility so they don’t have to compete with giant murder machines.







  • I mean I feel like the bit of it being an extreme example that led to it being 4.20 a day made it obvious it wasn’t super serious. I sure didn’t read it as serious.

    Also my friends lawyer said you should give me $20.

    If you don’t believe that, or feel like there would need to be additional context for that to be believable, you are correct.
