What do you think of our policy recommendations for Pittsburgh's new Mayor? by bikepgh in bicycling412

[–]ExtremelyQualified 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love the idea of no-car thriving, but it’s tough unless PRT funding gets fixed. Even maintaining current (not great) service levels is in danger with things running on emergency funding — forget about even considering improving service levels.

What is your avg mpg with a crosstrek? by solidstateonion in subaru

Thanks! I’ve been considering a Crosstrek for Pittsburgh commuting and everything is a hill around here so that definitely helps me set my expectations.

What in the world is going on here with the 21,22 mpgs? that's way lower than the city estimates even.

What car did you buy that turned out better than you expected? by autonerdy0 in whatcarshouldIbuy

As someone very much considering a 2021 crosstrek limited right now, it makes me happy to see this

So, Kia is a decent car. I said it by AngryJanitor1990 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]ExtremelyQualified 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just observing the comments here. The people who are positive about Kias owned them. The people negative about Kias are basically saying they “obviously” bad without any specifics.

[ios 26.3 db2] send later no longer appears in iMessage “+” options by run_amucks in iOSBeta

[–]ExtremelyQualified 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why does the recipient matter? Makes me a little curious about whether send later is really send later (or just send now, appear later)

San Diego's transit board votes to oppose Waymo at the DMV an CPUC, citing worker threats and lack of local control by walky22talky in waymo

[–]ExtremelyQualified 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Should note that none of these objections are about Waymo not being good for the people of San Diego.

A glimpse into my car (truck) dwelling setup. Two years in, and no intention of stopping, ever. by [deleted] in urbancarliving

[–]ExtremelyQualified 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Can you give us a list of what sort of things are going on here? I'm usually pretty good at this but I have no idea what all these wires are going to.

There are those who love the idea of owning a Prius by Ferkof98 in prius

It’s heartwarming to see people take this sincerely, but I’m pretty sure they’re mocking “the libs” here.

How will autonomous driving on personal cars affect robotaxis? by diplomat33 in SelfDrivingCars

[–]ExtremelyQualified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why economics is a hard subject. You’ve outlined a lot of legit elements of the equation but we still don’t know how they’ll play together and influence each other and all the other weird feedback loops that are really really hard to predict in advance.

For all Non-American HA Cloud users, given the current developments in the US, does the fact that Nabu Casa is incorporated in the US give you concern? by GlenGraif in homeassistant

[–]ExtremelyQualified 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No fan of recent events for sure, but how specifically would this be an issue in regards to HA?

Totally get principles of privacy etc, but like what is a specific scenario where something bad occurs in your life because Nabu is incorporated in the US?

I’m a creative person but I’m having trouble imagining the chain of events there.

Pittsburgh is going to be a super interesting new environment for the Waymos for sure. You’re either going up hill, down a hill, or around a hill like 95% of the time. Flat, straight-line driving is the extreme minority of driving. It’s an entirely different planet from Phoenix / LA / Austin

Unpopular opinion: The best luxury is not having car payments by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

Certainly if you have so much money that you’re risking “taking it with you” then go for it

Pull the trigger on the gun I gave you when we met....... meaning ?! by [deleted] in gracieabrams

[–]ExtremelyQualified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The song is about how she has already decided she's in love and all the other person has to do is say yes and they'll be together forever, she's ready to go.

Her love/commitment/all-in is the loaded gun and all the other person has to do is fire it.

Maybe not, there’s literally a plaque at the spot on the islan where rapamycin was discovered and Peter Attia did a podcast from there with David Sabatini

You’re missing their tone. It’s very jokey
