And most of those SUVs are the same size that most pickup trucks used to be 10-20 years ago. Even the smallest US vehicles are oversized now.

Not parent, but while I agree with you, I have very little faith (virtually none) in that happening. Most people are in a week-to-week or month-to-month financial situation; so, even if the desire & political will were to manifest, most people literally can't afford to strike.

I agree! I think this kind of resource would be very useful to a lot of people!

I don't have astronomical ambitions, and I am so far past unhappy with my situation. It does calm me a bit to know that there are people who are.

So, in short, what I'm saying is that I am genuinely happy for you. :')


A lot of the responses to your comment imo are kinda missing your point. I don't use Apple products, but I do understand what you're saying. You want an editor that also has an option for previewing the markup text in its formatted view.

It's officially only available for Linux (the Windows version is currently under development), and like I said, I don't use Apple products, and idk how familiar you are with manually compiling source code or how good Wine is on Macs, but maybe [Remarkable](https://remarkableapp.github.io/) could be an option?

Just thought I'd give my $2.70. ;)


To be fair, the name isn't doing it any favors. "Consent-o-matic" sounds like it "automatically consents".

Counterpoint: that would require using CloudFlare.


That is, in my opinion, far superior to using a single server ran by "someone".


I guess that is the beauty of opinions: they can be different from person to person. In my case, I would rather avoid CloudFlare if possible.


This.

And if it doesn't wanna work on Proton, GEProton might work. I've had a few games like that. (I usually default to the latter and use the former as a fallback.)


I always get confused by people saying public transportation makes no sense for rural people. I think it makes more sense, provided you use the right kind of public transportation for the right kind of rural community.

A large, spread-out community? Perhaps not so much.

But a small town where 80% of the people commute to surrounding cities? That'd be a great case for 1 or more commuter train, depending on direction and demand.


That is the UK basicially. You need some connecting dots probably to make it worthwhile.

But even then if the train is hourly you need to be organized. No going out ona whim.


It’s second nature very quickly. Our train into Oxford leaves at ten past the hour. You find yourself thinking “oh, I’ll aim for the ten past eleven” an hour or two beforehand and organise your morning accordingly. It’s absolutely no hardship.


"electronic passes"

"pay by toll"

These are still toll roads, just a more modern iteration. Toll road ≠ physical cash
