    I think YOU'RE missing the point. If google cars act so fundamentally differently than other cars, they belong on a different set of roads.

    At least the LAPD nominally works for the people.

    Bahahahahaha lapd works for lapd. Sometimes they incidentally reduce crime, sometimes they intentionally commit crimes.

    I'm not saying you're part of the conspiracy. I do think a lot of the excitement for google cars comes from the "privileged white driver" mindset in which there are no pedestrians, no bikes, no transit. Nothing but people like them in their single occupancy vehicles.

    Also, google cars drove 0 miles in open traffic. Troll harder next time.

    Have you contact Mercedes to tell them they need to stop selling there cars that can automatically follow the car in front of them? do you rally against self parking cars?

    Car following happens at freeway speeds. There are no peds or bikes there. Self parking happens at 2 mph. In both cases there is a driver behind the wheel. Methinks y'our being disingenuous.

    there's a lot of people on the road other than cars. pedestrians, bicyclists. are you going to get a roadmaster computer to tell them what to do as well? some pedestrians are elderly. some are drunk. some are children. i don't know where you're from but in america pedestrians and bicyclists have the right of way.

    yeah but this whole car effort is one big marketing blitz. they're not in the car business. they won't make a profit from the cars. they'll play with it right now because it feeds their image, but they'll drop it as soon as it becomes inconvenient.

    i am seriously concerned about how the google car treats bicycles. can it determine a bicyclist's intention from his hand signals? how about from where it looks on the road and if he's looking over his shoulder? google cars should be banned from shared access roads. dedicated right-of-ways and private property only.

    the whole conversation about google cars shows how selfish people are. the entire conversation about safety is really about safety of the occupant. it's clear from the summary that they are dangerous to pedestrians. how do they handle bicyclists? google cars should never be allowed on the road.

    it's not just the extent of medical infrastructure, but also its robustness. one reason it has spread so rapidly in nigeria is that all the doctors are on strike. the doctor's union has been striking for 6 months to get higher wages (seriously, yes). this is the problem with centralized health care!

    >when are people going to finally tire of being told to 'be afraid!' ?

    when the populace starts to see through their schtick, they'll greenlight another terrorist attack. I just hope they don't attack an airplane with a body cavity bomber. that would make future TSA checkpoints awful.

    If I download an encrypted web page, I expect those bytes to include that encryption overhead.

    On neither occasion do I know or care about the encapsulation. That's the ISP's issue, not mine.

    cool story bro. att doesn't care. look. att is going to run their business so they cover their costs, make a small profit, and continue to grow their business. they'll do so by charging you a base fee, setting a cap at a certain level, and charging a certain amount when exceeding that cap.

    lets say perfect world you throw a hissy and take them to the international court of justice and they lose, yes they wouldn't charge for encapsulation but they would lower your cap by 10%. it doesn't matter. it's the same thing.
