  1.  @Eric-oi5yj  Speed limits are set notionally as the maximum speed that is safe for all conditions. Your speeding motorcycle was no danger until he came around a corner and crashed into stopped traffic. Laws exist to protect the public from stupid people doing stupid things even when they think they are stupid. Also, while laws can be selectively enforced, obedience is not.

  2. Its because autonomous devices (cars, washingmachines, etc.) have to default to "fail safe" as in in any kind of not nominal or or unprogrammed for condition, they have to stop and not cause any damage to others or themselves.

  4.  @zeropolicy7456  Yep. There is a whole cottage industry of "professional" or industry organizations that exist to do not much besides organize and promote conferences. Pretty good racket, you charge both the attendees and attenders for the privilege.

  5. When the landlord was assaulted, why didn't he call the cops and have them arrested for not only the assault, but the trespass? Airbnb like all these ebusiness "facilitation" companies justify the fees they charge for the service are the guarantees they are supposed to provide. So that is why I don't think this is a case of (just) going after the deepest pockets.

  6.  @mrcryptozoic817  Wrong. Its theft by receiving. And no, you are facilitating the scam by not reporting it.

  13.  @AB-jz9ns  IIRC the law is supposed to be to address people who's families have lived/owned on property since before there were written records. When everything was owned by nobles, and commoners could only rent. I think even back to the Black Death, when whole families were wiped out, and the survivors inhabited houses and land that were abandoned . Obviously, this is being taken advantage of today.

  15. Good luck finding capable, competent, and qualified people to fill those roles then. What you will get is the incompetent and the political extremist instead.

  17. Hopefully he funded the boots by borrowing from a loan shark who will be looking for him when he gets out of jail.

  18. The money doesn't hurt anyone but the taxpayers. It need to have disciplinary measures against the officers involved and the dept they were a part of to actually make an impact.

  27.  @MatrixRefugee  It really should be, in an ideal world. But... you know the rest. There are a lot of people that can't do much more than work hard at a simple job. Figuring out what those people (and lots of others, including whole swaths of profressional and "smart" ppl) can do, is going to be a major challenge in the next decade.

  28. This isn't a "new city" its just a new housing development around Travis. Its very common for land speculators to use secrecy and shell companies when buying up tracts of land for big projects in order for owners to not know and then increase their prices because they can demand them. I would hope this falls apart and the investors kill the plan and the region loses out on the economic opportunity because stupid politicians and NIMBY locals had to show their asses. But of course that is exactly what the NIMBYs want...

  32. It would be funny if he took his stolen change to the coinstars in the town he was about to rob to cash out, and then came back later and stole them again.

  33. @2:15 Normally they steal them from National Guard armories. Most private owners install keyed locks or hidden kill switches. @12:30 But you could never outrun a helicopter or drone. I guess the guy really wanted to go back to jail..

  35.  @brianwest2775  Big companies with large fleets like FedEx turn over hundreds if not thousands of vehicles every year. So each one might seem trivial, but that few thousand in value illegally recouped adds up to a lot. Yeah, there is no way that upper management was unaware of this practice.

  38.  @ceoatcrystalsoft4942  But the charged value of the goods was probably well above that. Doesn't matter if it cost $4K to ship the fake product, if you made $10K on the bait n' switch.

  45.  @frazergeno4557  Wrong. He was butt hurt after getting ticketed for speeding, but instead of learning his lesson and moving on with his life like a normal person, he decided to "get revenge" and then doubled down on showing his ass when told to go away. The only thing the cops did wrong was taking the bait.

  49.  @irmatroll  Would you think the same if I went to your place of work or around you in a public space and start harassing and interfering with that you doing? GL with getting a court to agree with you that being punished for breaking the law is the same as the threat of burning to death.
