wintermute_oregon , to news in More than 90% of chickenpox cases in New York City outbreak among unvaccinated people

My brother caught it first. He developed keloids from it. I was maybe 6 or 7 at the time. I had to wear mittens on my hands till it healed.

wintermute_oregon , to news in More than 90% of chickenpox cases in New York City outbreak among unvaccinated people

Back in my day our parents had parties for chicken pox. The older you get, the worse it is.

There was no vaccine when I was a child.

They also lost federal funds unrelated to their BLM support. Looks like death by a thousand paper cuts.

wintermute_oregon , to news in Americans are choking on surging fast-food prices. "I can't justify the expense," one customer says

Since labor is a cost. You just defeated your argument.

If labor goes up, prices will go up. It’s that simple. Fast food is only profitable at high volumes. Their profit margin is only around 10% which is low.

wintermute_oregon , to nostupidquestions in What happens to those who are severely disabled while in prison?

Most states have medical prisons to detain those with special needs.

Here is an example of one.

Sometimes they’ll be paroled if they are Low risk. That way the tax payer isn’t financially responsible.

Ironically medical care is a right to prisoners but it’s not for everyone else.

wintermute_oregon , to technology in Tesla is already pulling back Supercharger plans after firing team

One article I read said he likes to fire whole teams and then see which people are asked about. Those are the ones he rehires. If nobody misses you then you were doing a job of value.

From a human level, this is just shitty. It isn’t the way to treat people.

wintermute_oregon , to technology in Lawsuits test Tesla claim that drivers are solely responsible for crashes

My thoughts were also about phantom breaking, but I don’t know if it is still an issue.

I haven’t had an issue with it for over a year but according to others it’s still a real issue. The car will just slam on the breaks for some odd reason. I don’t want to say no reason because the car thinks there is a valid reason but there isn’t. I’m more likely to have the issue on a sunny day, by a bridge when I’m the only car in front of me.

Since I’m a conservative, I have many fans who follow me around and downvote anything I say. It’s sad they think that gives them power over me or that I care.

As long as someone is having a discussion. They’ll never get a downvote from me.

wintermute_oregon , to technology in Lawsuits test Tesla claim that drivers are solely responsible for crashes

The driver assist is pretty damn good. It’s so good many people trust it to much. They’ll read email. Crawl in the back seat. You can go to Amazon and buy things to make it seems like your hands are on the wheel. Now the article did say EV are more likely to be read ended. I do wonder if that’s because of the phantom breaking.

wintermute_oregon , to technology in Lawsuits test Tesla claim that drivers are solely responsible for crashes

They have the worst accident rates among all brands and their driving assist features either can’t keep idiots from making bad decisions or, worse, even amplify the dangerous effects that idiots create while driving

You need the study to clarify that. Oddly the first article says accidents but when you see how it’s defined, tickets such as spending are called an accident

wintermute_oregon , to technology in Lawsuits test Tesla claim that drivers are solely responsible for crashes

I have not found an article that breaks down other EV since there are few of them and lumped in with brand as a whole.

You’ll see ram and Subaru are comparable to tesla

From the article

Scherr’s statements echoed findings by insurance analysts at LexisNexis who found that, when vehicle owners switch from gasoline-powered cars to electric cars, they tend to crash more. Drivers also tend to crash somewhat more when switching to gas-powered vehicles, too, but the increase is more pronounced with EVs. The increase in incidents is highest during the first year or so after drivers get the new electric vehicle, but then tapers off after that, according to LexisNexis, presumably as people get used to driving the new model. There is much less of a problem when a driver changes from a gasoline-powered vehicle to another gas-powered one, they found. But LexisNexis researchers had previously noticed similar trends in China, where there are many more EVs – including more that aren’t Teslas. Crashes are even more frequent in households with both a gas and an electric model, indicating that regularly switching from one to another exacerbates the issues. And the fact that crash frequency lessens with time also suggests that unfamiliarity has something to do with it, said Xiaohui Lu, head of EV research at LexisNexis Risk Solutions,

It’s why Tesla is in the news. The same stats run similar for other EV but nobody cares.

The article explains it’s switch from gas to ev and ev to gas and not as much about Tesla

wintermute_oregon , to showerthoughts in Remember when the body washes contained literal micro plastics and were advertised as such?

I want to see more regulations around plastics. We have the ability to make biodegradable plastics and we can research better ones. Plastic is a bane to the environment.

I didn’t realize America has banned them. Good. I just figured they were a fad.
