  1. That can't possibly work. The driver will not maintain enough situational awareness to take over in a reasonable time. It is not how we work.
  2. Lawsuits will be settled with money like they always are. The government will be settled with money like it always is. "The Public" is not going to revolt over a few dead people. 38,800 people lost their lives in US car accidents in 2019. No one is revolting. My feeling is that the tech will be too expensive and too inflexible for quite a few more years for widespread adoption.
  3. https://www.amazon.com/Prepper-Supplies/s?k=Prepper+Supplies You can buy "50 year water", only 17 cents an oz. I kid you not. https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Can-Premium-Emergency-Drinking/dp/B00M9O9HTK/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=Prepper+Supplies&qid=1601416376&sr=8-8
  4. That's funny. In Canada, despite our "socialized medicine", drugs outside of the hospital are not covered by our basic health insurance. Most people with good jobs have some kind of drug coverage through their employment. And that generally covers regular birth control and other medications with a small deductible. But most plans will not cover Viagra. Too expensive and considered a frill.
  5. That's some pretty big talk you got going on there. 'specially for a guy hiding out in the hills. How much did the "CIA-DOD expert" charge you for this little pep talk and rally? Sucker. Using up all your government benefits to listen to a con man.
  6. I never eat at truck stops I have a fridge, a 12 volt oven, a coffee maker, and a large inverter. I shop for groceries and eat healthy. But I sure do see quite a few "extra large" drivers waddling into the restaurant when I stop for fuel! So you are not wrong.
  7. Winnipeg is a fine safe place to visit in the winter. But pitch the weapons out the door when you cross the 49th parallel. You won't need them when you visit me here. I'll supply some of Gimli's finest Crown Royal and help you with Pinot. It'll be a grand old time.
  8. Yes, that's why it's called "the base". The point of the majority and the MSM is to keep hammering away at him to motivate the lackadaisical basically lazy and unmotivated rest of America to do their civic duty and vote for a change. Literally.

  10. For a day? Sure Wendy, I can do that for you. Even though it's a day at home in front of the computer and not a day of driving your wish is my command! ( I like made up words )
  11. Hero worship of a deplorable in TX school. https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/17/us/dallas-school-assignment-kenosha-shooter-trnd/?iid=ob_article_footer_expansion
  12. There is a strong possibility of her becoming POTUS one day. As if BHO wasn't a strong enough disruption in the natural order of things. Does turtle hair burn or melt?

    covid-19

    I'm expecting that the US/Canada border will remain mostly closed for several more months. We are also seeing an increase in both infection and stupidity here, but not at anything near the level you have.
  14. I have no idea what this blocked poster is on about. But I can read the title due to the woefully insufficient blocking this site provides and clearly he does not want to talk about something but none the less feels the need to put that something's name in the title of the thread. Could it possibly be another troll of some sort?
  15. It’s easy even for myself to understand the advantages of this so-called mesh network. But would it not also have a potential disadvantage of one faulty node in the mesh bringing traffic to a standstill? Come to think of it each of us driving in our cars today are currently a meshed network.

    Q

    I don’t think that would bother Ron very much. As an evangelical Christian he is part of a flock. You don’t get much more sheeplike than them.
  17. I don’t understand what all the argument is about. Of course Trump and his party are going to try to fill that seat. The other party would do the exact same thing. It’s about power when you have it you use it. If you don’t like it get up off your ass and go vote for the other party this time. Y’all screwed up last time when you fell for the years and years of painting Hillary as a villain.
  18. Note to all. The blocking options include the ability to block PMs.
  19. They will wait and do it in the lame duck session. That way they can use the prospect of the prize to motivate their base.
  20. It's all about power. You either have the votes or you don't. There are no morals involved whatsoever.
  21. What you seem to have done wrong, or incorrectly, is to even bother commenting on someone's use of English grammar in an internet forum. I mean "who fucken cares, eh"? We don't need no steekin' speling lessons either!
  22. Too bad that seldom leads to consequences for the LEO. They seldom are held responsible and seldom are willing to hold each other responsible. They exist in an "us versus them" world. And that is not going to change without a fight.
