The only thing pressuring them to overtake someone going the speed limit is their own stupidity. It’s not my responsibility to ensure other people aren’t going to kill themselves because they’re irresponsible idiots

You’re supposed to start signalling before you turn, so that would be kinda useless
It sounds fake, but it might genuinely be your genes. Scientifically the natural tendency to sleep at specific time is called your chronotype and it’s semi-genetic (it also changes with age and possibly few other factors). Not only that, it also affects your alertness: morning people usually have the highest alertness just after waking up and it gradually declines throughout the day, while evening people usually wake up with very low mental functions, but then their alertness slowly rises and hits its’ peak around 5-6PM.
So if you ever wondered how it’s possible that you always wake up feeling like shit, while others talk about how they’re so full of energy in the morning. That’s how. They’re literally built different.
They’re massive death machines on wheels. They’re one of the largest and heaviest trucks on American roads, the visibility in them is virtually non-existent, the reflectors are pointed so high they barely light up the road, while blinding every other driver. Not to mention the fact that all those sharp edges and steel construction means if they hit a pedestrian, it will slice them in half.
You kind of stumped me at first, didn’t think you were referencing Marconi. I was almost ready to give in, but then I went looking for that court judgment. I believe it’s this one. Lemme just quote you one fragment of the attached opinion:
Marconi’s reputation as the man who first achieved successful radio transmission rests on his original patent, which became reissue No. 11,913, and which is not here in question. That reputation, however well deserved, does not entitle him to a patent for every later improvement which he claims in the radio field.
It seems like this case wasn’t about his original patent whatsoever, only his later claimed improvement to it. Yes, the later one was invalidated, but the original was not. And it also looks like they focus more on patents of Stone and Lodge, only sporadically mentioning Tesla. They even state that wireless communication wasn’t even the primary purpose of the Tesla aparatus, it was actually for his wireless energy stuff, altough he did mention it could be used for that.
So I stand by my opinion. Marconi didn’t really screw over Tesla, altough it seems he did screw over Stone and Lodge.
Altough I admit I might be wrong, it’s very hard to look up anything on Tesla and get objective results. Also, after spending an hour reading a 70 year old court case about patent infringment I decided I should probably find something better to do with my time and can’t be fucking bothered anymore.
Unpopular opinion: Edison wasn’t nearly as bad as people are painting him to be.
Extra unpopular opinion: Musk is, very much, quite similar to Nikola Tesla, as he was an extravagant lunatic, that really liked talking about shit he had no idea about, a bitter loser that prefered playing the victim over accepting responsibility for his failures, and he also had fanboys that mindlessly gobbled up everything he said.
Edit: Hey, cowards, instead of just downvoting me, how about some of you try to help the one brave man that actually tried to prove me wrong, he seems to be bruised from falling flat on his face so many times
And how was Tesla ‘screwed over’ exactly?
He WAS rich for a long time. He died poor because he lost all the money on his ‘wireless electricity’ idea that noone wanted to fund, because they knew it’s not going to work. Tesla didn’t know that. You know why? Because he sucked ass at physics. That’s also why he would have never understood the concept of a transistor.
Please stop spreading misinformation about Tesla being some misunderstood genius screwed over by greedy corporations. He was not. He screwed himself over.
How long do you think making a modern AAA game takes? If those big game companies only started working on a new game after shelving the previous one, they’d go bankrupt before it’s finished. That’s why they pretty much always have several projects in the works at any given time.
It actually did work, apparently:
They don’t even have to scrape calls. If you use Alexa, Siri or Google Assistant, they already have recordings of your voice on their servers
It’s literally just this one guy spamming it
The Catholic Church does not agree. According to the canon, animals don’t have souls and therefore have no afterlife. And even if they did, the Church believes that you don’t go to hell simply for not believing in God.
Correction: Even though he’s Finnish, his primary language is Swedish
No, it wasn’t. This shit has been common in sci-fi for decades. He just gave it a fancy name and pretended he came up with it.
Such as having to withstand over 100 tons of air pressure per square meter
It’s not always against the rules. I believe that LoL, for example, allows it.
That’s actually the headline of the article, so it’s not OP’s fault
Among the SEALs’ main functions are conducting small-unit special operation missions in maritime, jungle, urban, arctic, mountainous, and desert environments
From what i know, Russia really likes using the tactic of ‘carpet bombing’. They just aim a bunch of these vaguely in a direction of a city and call it a day. Because who cares about the Geneva Convebtions, right?
