Damn, I think you might just be dumb. Listen, I can explain this for you, but I can't inderstasd it for you. I'm done with you.

It's like when Chik-fil-a hired created a standard corporate performative diversity figurehead, and more than one right-wing pundit immediately jumped to "there's going to be tranny cum in the milkshakes", actual quote. Conservatives see a rainbow and instantly think of chugging jizz. The boy ain't right.

We'd pay more anyway, they're just butthurt that the margins are smaller. You think the prices are going to come down if the theft stops?

Lemmynet's design structure has some weird choices in it, motivated either by laziness or to keep garage servers from being overwhelmed, and that's the biggest and weirdest one. I'd like to see federation = full and complete synchonization from server launch to present, but I doubt the motivation is there to implement it. Maybe things will be different when kbin eventually surpasses Lemmy

I'm generally considered to have good reading comprehension

I have no idea why you're thinking I'm anti-vax. I'm pro-vax.

Dude, seriously? Give me a break.

You have also said the following:

Ok, so if you read that - we're going to take away the only form of transportation for these people and worry about fixing it later - that's what lead to my initial reply.

Already wrong. But let's continue.

Do you dispute this? Am I making an unfounded leap of logic that many people need a car to get to a store and bring back food?

Yes, you are genuinely making an unfound leap of logic, it's called begging the question. That's your entire problem, really.

And these people tend to not be in heavily populated areas.

Yeah you mentioned this a few times.

But the other thing that isn't teased out that I can see is how that riskier driving interacts with cities. That is, NY data is by population overwhelmed by the NYC area, and maybe Buffalo. But that's by land area - you know, places people might drive - like 1% of the state. So when you're likely to be the only car on the road, or one of a few - how does the risk change there from a public policy perspective?

People don't drive on the land per se, they drive on roads—you know, the places people might drive. Where the fuck do you think all the roads are? I'll give you hint, it's where the people are, as evidenced by every road atlas ever printed.

And let's not forget these gems:

I'm also pro proving you can drive to drive, but we don't do that in the US

Actually we do do that. It's the aptitude test they have at the DMV when you get your license. The one you also have to get re-tested on when your license expires. The one I've been talking about this entire time.

I really thought your characterizations
>Letting blind people with dementia
was hyperbole because if that is what you mean exactly - I don't think we actually let blind people drive.

I agree. I propose that people whose vision is naturally deteriorating be screened more often so that we catch the ones who are too blind to drive. Again, this is my entire point. You know what else it is? It's already the law in some states, such as the one I cited, and those states have declining rates of road death, like I cited. And yet I can just feel that this is going to sail right over your head.

How wide is the average person? About 1/2 a block 1/2 a meter

This advice doesn't apply to Americans

I have a quick question before I rip your comment to shreds: are you intentionally misinterpreting me, or are your reading comprehension skills just super, super bad? Because I read your entire comment and it's abundantly clear that you missed the point completely. Like, you're not even close.

I'm aware of that, I can read user names. I'm really not sure how you got there from what I said.

I really don't know if "no u" is a very compelling argument.
