Every night, you say?

Every night?

Except for there is like a 1 hour window when they taste really good and have a good texture. In between when they’re green and taste like chalk and when they’re full yellow and taste like mushy baby food.

Right in that 1 hour window? Delicious.

Yeah, Android Auto is definitely the thing I didn’t think I needed and now can’t live without.

I have no idea if there can be a foss alternative that would work with existing cars…

I only post or reply on Lemmy.

I don’t have a facebook, instagram, snapchat, or twitter account.

I deleted my two reddit accounts after RIF stopped working.

I do have accounts on a couple of car forums so I can ask questions about fixing my car, if that counts.

Sure. I agree with all of that. But I live in a suburban sprawl of a US city that is just dense enough to have lots of cars, but nowhere near dense enough to have decent public transportation…unless we as a society decided to bulldoze this entire vast suburban landscape and start over with density as a goal. It’s hot here too. Nobody is riding their bike 12 miles to work in 95⁰ weather (35⁰ for our metric homies).

Maybe within the next few years the Netherlands will let me and my family in as refugees so I can bike everywhere on a 72⁰ summer day.

But I like where your head’s at. Hopefully you’re young and can make a difference.

To be fair, you have a 1 in 95 chance of dying in an automobile accident.

Based on modern safety standards for everything else, that’s unacceptable.

If I offered you a job and said you have a 1 in 95 chance of dying from working this job, you would refuse. The most dangerous job in the USA is logging, with about a 1 in 1000 chance of dying. More lumberjacks die driving home than die working their extremely dangerous job.

Not only should we have self-driving flying taxis by now, but we should also at least have level 5 self-driving cars so people aren’t constantly dying driving to get groceries or pick up their kids.

I’d really like to at least see humanity fully switch to clean energy in my lifetime but I’m losing hope.

I should already be able to take a self-driving flying taxi to work. I should already be able to vacation on the moon. We shouldn’t be burning stuff to power all our modern tech.

I grew up on 80s/90s scifi. I hope humanity can get it’s shit together and that the current anti-intellectualism phase we’re in is just part of a larger cycle.
