  1. City bus network? Taxis? Uber? General Motors?

  2. Re:Whatever improves OSM is good news on Microsoft Releases 125 Million Building Footprints In the US To the OpenStreetMap Community (mspoweruser.com) · · Score: 1

    Windows 10 is not that terrible. Sure, they keep annoying me with ugly backgrounds that I can vote down on the login screen, but once I'm logged in, open Steam and start a game, Windows isn't too annoying.

    Yeah, I was amused/annoyed that Patreon thought that the 2 Kinds side comic pics were too racy for public consumption. That pic of Kat having a bit too much to drink and Zen admiring her figure [...]

    That was my reaction too. When I saw the "under review" message, I thought "wow, that must be a really great drawing" and then... well, it was Kat being her usual cute self so I was happy, but I was expecting more than that.

    1. websites should take crypto-currencies as payments (it doesn't have to be Bitcoin, there's hundreds of crypto-currencies, ex: Litecoin, Reddcoin, Dogecoin, Dash, Monero, etc).
    2. websites could then exchange those crypto-currencies for money on any crypto-currencies exchange.

  7. Re:Let the private sector handle it on San Jose May Start Cracking Down On Rampant Use of Scooters (mercurynews.com) · · Score: 3, Informative

    After searching, I see that what you guys call "scooter" is in fact motorized skateboards. Around here, "scooter" means "moped".

  8. Re:Let the private sector handle it on San Jose May Start Cracking Down On Rampant Use of Scooters (mercurynews.com) · · Score: 1

    Are these scooters allowed to use a parking space? If not, it sounds like a problem that the city should address either legally or by cooperating with the companies to make custom parking spaces available, just like for bikes. ... the city does have parking spaces reserved for bikes, right?

  9. Primary link is to a website that only has an auto-playing video.

    Can reporters in the USA still write?

  11. Re:Great Video but WTF Marketing People? on Microsoft Re-Launches Its Classic 'IntelliMouse' (hothardware.com) · · Score: 1

    I'd say the marketing people absolutely know what they're doing.

    The target demographic being "nostalgic IntelliMouse users", they'll already have recognized the mouse at the beginning, the middle Rube Goldberg Machine part is to increase the nostalgia felt toward the mouse to increase the desire to buy one and it ends with the new model to further increase that desire with a "oh, new shiny" shot of the product, just long enough to pique your interest but not enough time to let you make a rationale thinking about wether you need one or not.

    The only solution is to avoid the problem of self-driving cars on roads designed for humans.

    That's why we need to upgrade all the cities and towns on the planet to include standardized delivery tubes for shipping goods and monorails for moving people around. Hey, it worked in Futurama!

    Here's a free bit of friendly advice: never go on reddit.

    On second thought, stop visiting any website with a forum.
