Yeah, they always go nuts on that automation shit.

GAF OT always seemed to think that we were like 2 years away from being entirely replaced by robots in all industries.

No matter how many good intelligent reasons you can give them about why Uber won’t be able to replace drivers with self-driving cars sometimes in the next 6 months they’d never believe it.

Go to one of those McDonald’s with the touch screens and you’ll start to realize cashiers are probsbly here to stay for a minute too.

Idk what you’re talking about. I use those touch screens exclusively. I haven’t talked to a McDonald’s employee in over a year now, besides saying thank you when I grab my order

I remember a few years ago all the Walmarts around my area installed those self checkout registers everywhere. They still had human cashiers, but it was an option. They took them all out for some reason. I actually liked those. Home Depot still has them. I think Winn Dixie had them too, and it was a clusterfuck when I went (don't normally shop at WD), every customer had to get assistance.

I went to a McD's the other week and they had the kiosk where you order and check out. They already knew how clunky their software was because they had a dedicated emoloyee to walk each customer through all the steps. What a shitshow!

Yeah? In fact I was a lyft driver for 2 years. I just have a McD by my house and every time I go, walking inside is always faster than drive through.

[agrajag]

I've conditioned myself to be a lot more zen-like about driving. I don't get mad about people cutting me off, I just laugh it off with amusement now. Sometimes if I am in a rush to get somewhere, I might reluctantly cut someone off, but try to avoid any crazy stunts. Majority of the time I give myself enough of buffer so I don't have to rush. It's not worth risking your life or the stress to road rage

A little while ago someone did one of my top 3 LA driving pet peeves: fairly crowded freeway that is also somehow moving quickly, I'm leaving about a car-length buffer between me and the guy ahead of me, and the driver behind me jumps into the right lane, speeds up, and merges into that car-length buffer. Fuck people who do this.

About a mile later I had the opportunity to do the same to him, so I did. He was so legit shook that he just fell back a few hundred feet. Felt like I could see his soul exiting his body in my rearview.

Hey, I already said that if I'm going up to around 15 mph over the speed limit, I'll move over for you. Beyond that, you're on your own.

pretty much. i like driving fast but just on the highway and even then if someone wants to go faster i'm not going to get in a race with them, i'll move over and let them go on by. and i don't care enough about going fast to tailgate someone because people are stupid/insane/both when it comes to that shit.

i'm against passing on the right but i'd rather do that than engage with someone that is either not paying attention or holding a weird grudge about driving. both are equally dangerous mindsets.

when it comes to just regular roads i'll just stick to the speed limit or at most go 5 over. i've gotten one expensive speeding ticket and that was enough to curb me of that practice.

what if you're driving where 85 is the speed limit? do you add another 15 before you stop moving over or just stick to that speed as your holding point?

[Raist]

Dropping bombs onto a ship... in space? Wut.

I can buy this.  Obviously every Star Wars ship has its own gravity generator so people can walk around normally.  Bombs drop in the direction of the ship's local gravity field until they exit it and keep freefalling in that direction with no friction to stop them.

What is this, troll physics? The bomb would just carry on on the same trajectory than the ship that "dropped" it. You know, momentum and all.

Likewise, Star Wars' ships are distinguished mentally-challenged. Someone should point out to them that wings are useless in space.

Same here, I drive more relaxed nowadays than I did in my 20's. It's still fun to push my car to the limit but I only do that during daytime on a clear road.
A friend of mine had a nasty accident with a deer in the middle of the night when we was doing 130ish and that made me rethink my driving habits.

cutting people off in heavy traffic doesn't save you any time anyway.

Nah I'll only buy an automated car if it's mandatory which probably won't happen in my lifetime.
I'll also only drive stick unless my right arm or left leg falls off.

I like long drives(as I said earlier I don't commute by car anymore) and having a driverless car would feel like sitting in a damn bus and nobody wants that.

i gave up on manual when i got an electric car. though our scion has some kind of manual mode you can change into but it's clutchless so i dunno how it works.

Actual space combat would look like something out of Expanse series. Star Wars is just dumb shit.

The problem with Star Wars is that we're getting so many Star Wars movies and products that the illusion that it is something special kinda fades away.

I mean, I don't know what you are trying to say.. maybe the particular designs wouldn't work?  Either way, good luck flying around earth-like atmospheres without wings?

If your automatic doesn't have a manu-matic mode you are probably poor.

Shifting gears without a clutch is just boring to me.We have two legs for a reason 

I was pondering buying an Audi A6 in 2010ish which had this and when I tried it, I couldn't have hated it more.

"My Mission"

A few days ago I made a thread on the Official Nintendo Forums that i was in love with Marin from Links Awakening. I said the reason I was in love with her was because of her appearance, her personality, her dreams and everything else. I’ve been in love with her since childhood when I had my Game Boy.

Marin was a girl on an island with no powers, just words of serene and wanting to fulfill her dream. The story and everything touched my heart. Now I understand Marin was not real, but I actually found out that emotions are telling me that I’m in love with the real Marin that’s really out there.

In other words, we feel that Miyamoto knew these Zelda characters when he drew them from certain people. A lot of people were touched my my message and felt that we should go on a search for Miyamoto to find the true answer. In other words, we want to ask Miyamoto-dono who the real Zelda people were that he got his ideas from.

We feel Miyamoto-dono really knew people like Zelda, Marin, Link, Malon etcetera and are personalities and have put them into the games. We are going to form a search party for Miyamoto because these questions we have we have been wanting to know the answers for all of our lives. Sometimes we even cited when we were in love with a character from a game and knew we would never meet them.

I cried, however I feel we can find them. I tried to get everyone to come with me on this search, but we were still discussing the situation when the topic reached 390 posts. NOA staff deleted it. We don’t know why, but it happened.

So I found this site and I’m hoping that this site is the same site for the dreams and answers to the Zelda characters with whom we have loved. I have loved so much for Marin that I have she tears over her.

I know you guys may think weird or even crazy for loving a game character, but I am not. You see it is our emotion that is trying to reach out to a certain person we love. We can’t help it if we’re touched by the characters looks, personality and so on etcetera.

So I’m just posting here if anyone has suggestions for our situation. Actually I have a lot of people that want to come with me to find Miyamoto so we can get these answers. Our love is so strong for this journey that we don’t want to put it aside.

Finally, I am asking the NOA staff to please revive the thread and give me access to the thread so i can document the pages, as lots and lots of work was deleted.

No, the problem with Star Wars is that it's ran by Disney execs that want to feed us endless amounts of shitty fucking movies that all try to mimic Joss Whedons bullshit that was fresh 10 years ago.

Everything is a semi-comedy now with no real suspense or meaning. It's all a big joke.  They're not even decent when considered children's movies, it's only made worse by the fact that there's grown ass men that defend this junk as culturally significant still.

I know, was just having fun. Though it is funny that every goddamn big SUV and truck owner always pulls up to my Volt and gives me a sideways look and revs their engine at stoplights. I don't do it often but once in a while (mainly if they are being extra annoying about it) I'll switch into Sport mode and zoom away when the light changes as they try their hardest to catch up.

The sound of acceleration is the one thing I do miss though. :'(

[nachobro]

Yeah I've dropped down to driving the most boring cars at this point in my life and it sorta bums me out. A Scion xB and Chevy Volt wasn't exactly my goal 15 years ago but they'll do for now.

Friend of mine got a new Fiesta ST recently and another got a GTI, and  it's something I'm thinking about but I'll just stick to thinking for a while.

[BisMarckie]
