I use Twitter on the toilet and for the same reason. I'm full of shit and I've gotta leave it somewhere.

@BossIgnostic @esjesjesj Yes, but blaming the failure on a system that was being overridden to produce test results that were intended to occur is disingenuous. Not to mention not using a comparable test for the lidar situation is extremely sus.
English
@danbert8 @esjesjesj Setting up systems to fail is just how you stress test them. It's not very useful if you don't do that.
English
Btw what happens is drivers see that autopilot is about to cause a crash and disengage it to try to stop the crash and it’s too late. Then tesla gets to say that autopilot wasn’t engaged
English
@Abolish_TSA @krisvancleave @ATLairport @TSA I would love to see the TSA replaced with private security at ATL.
English
@ATLairport is the busiest in the world - though Dubai is closing in fast.
They could kick @TSA out, set up their own screening systems, and provide more efficient security and a better passenger experience, while not being beholden to the whims of Washington DC.
What's stopping you, ATL?
English
.@ATLairport says its providing @TSA officers two meal vouchers per shift, free parking, free MARTA Breeze passes, airport concessionaires are offering discounted meals.
ATL Customer Service Reps are assisting flyers to try to help ease extended security lines due to staffing

Oh is she going to do a dramatic reading of the well-deserved lawsuit against her?
English
@BossIgnostic @esjesjesj I wouldn't use that Mark Rober video of evidence for that though. He was clearly setting up autopilot to fail and intentionally pushing the car through his "tests" to benefit his buddy's bankrupt lidar company.
English
@esjesjesj Investigations have indicated that Tesla autopilot technology is designed to disengage itself when the car is about to crash, presumably as a way to blame user error.

@Carina_Amyth @esjesjesj This was a very biased test and kinda ruined Mark Rober for a lot of people.

@IraGilligan The part that pisses me off is when I do a "pre check in" online where I sign a whole bunch of shit, have to take a picture and upload my insurance card and ID, and confirm all my information and then when I get to the office I have to sign paper copies and show them my stuff.
English
Does anyone else get asked to sign things at the doctor's office that aren't true? This is the second time. J is getting allergy shots, and the nurse says "I need you to sign this." I read it, and it says "I confirm we are leaving the premises despite being advised against doing so." I say "but we aren't leaving. You just told me we should wait here for 20 minutes, and we are."
At the pediatrician: "we need you to sign this Good Faith Estimate. "
Me: "I don't see the Estimate."
Receptionist: "That is the Good Faith Estimate"
Me: "... there is no number. If I sign this, you can charge whatever you want and I have to pay it. That seems contradictory to the purpose of GFE"
Receptionist, now annoyed because how dare I read: "do what you want but they won't treat her if you don't sign and you'll pay a cancelation fee"
How is this legal?

@jontweetssports What are you talking about, I see plenty of people on 400 chilling in the left lanes while not passing all the time...
English
The last time Atlanta traffic looked like this, the Flames were the city’s hockey team. 400 hasn’t looked like this a day in its life 😭

#NHL to Atlanta effort continued… Here are the renderings of the proposed development for the North Point Mall area (Alpharetta). Proposal includes 20k seat NHL arena, 2k seat community hockey rink, 4k seat music hall, movie theater, 750k sq ft of office, parks and public trail space. A hotel as well.

Last year, Colorado State troopers pulled over 2,540 drivers traveling slower than the flow of traffic, often creating additional hazards for other motorists. The left lane is for passing, the right lane is for traveling. Know your lane.

@Abolish_TSA Nothing the 9/11 hijackers had gotten through security would have stopped determined passengers from overwhelming them. 3 out of the 4 planes just didn't understand they were being used as a missile until it was too late.
English
Hardened cockpit doors and the legacy of Shanksville, protect us more than all the theater performed at TSA checkpoints.
Libertarian Party@LPNational
@TrumpWarRoom We don’t need fake security theater! Abolish the @TSA and allow airports to manage their own security like they did before 9-11
English
@qndarwin @LPNational @TrumpWarRoom @TSA @grok Security "like they had it before" wasn't even considering using hijacked planes as missiles. The weapons they had weren't enough to take over against a mob of passengers. The problem was the instructions were to comply with hijackers at the time.
English
I was specifically responding to the meme claiming no attacks were prevented. Under the right circumstances private security might be an option but most likely only with rules and regulations which end up being very similar to federally operated TSA.
Bottom line is, private security “like they had before” didn’t stop (or deter) 9-11, so why would it stop a future attack? I’m all for smaller government though and open to hearing alternatives.
English
@ayshet_1991 @Ria_Martin Don't get too excited. Forsyth County wants to build them a venue between McFarland and Windward...
English
@Ria_Martin I'm hoping it's not at North Point and they stick with the location off 400, up more in Alpharetta. After exit 11, better location

@big_pedestrian Can we actually set speed limits on highways based on 85th percentile speeds?
English
Sewage and sanitation boards don’t hold community meetings before stopping a cholera outbreak. Depts of public health don’t do a survey before recalling listeria contaminated produce.
Traffic engineers should design safe streets. It is their professional duty.

@JToc33 @ZachNagel7 The number 1 thing any transit program needs is law enforcement keeping crime and vagrancy off transit.
If people don't feel safe they aren't getting on a bus or train.
The second thing is frequency and consistency of service.
English
@ZachNagel7 Considering you used to need a SWAT team to go thru Grant Park back in the 80's it's understandable why.
English
Atlanta could’ve been a world class city had they been allowed to expand transit to the suburbs
Atlanta Hood Historian@kodakk6000
Atlanta had YEARS to prepare for the World Cup and really trying to force all the road work that needs to be done in the next 2 months..

@miketermaat_ Does drunkenly signal chatting count as planning? Asking for an idiot...

DID ANYONE BOTHER TO PLAN THIS WAR?
* Iran closing of the Strait of Hormuz and the resultant oil price spike: PREDICTED
* Iran attacking geographically proximate American allies in lieu of being able to attack us directly: PREDICTED
* IRGC not relinquishing power and installing another militant cleric as supreme leader: PREDICTED
Yet the White House has been caught flat footed in each case.

It’s the greatest way to let the centralized Democrat party that never breaks ranks destroy the republic but whatever lets you sleep at night as your party is the biggest reason the coalition on the right can’t remain in tact. The woke right (Libertarians) are just as bad as the woke left (Marxists). Personality cult coming from you guys is the biggest statement of projection possible.

Are we harvesting the energy from the spinning in the grave?

@Dr_Pat_Riarchy @timodinson @ComicDaveSmith @hodgetwins You said that about Biden... None of it happened then either.

Another 10 million new illegals over four years. Give Washington DC and Puerto Rico, statehood adding four more global senators. Adding six justices to the Supreme Court all liberal. Fast tracking full voting citizenship to illegals. All swing states become blue 20 years of Democratic role. So like California, but you can’t move away.
English
Obviously this administration has already destroyed the coalition that won Trump the popular vote and every swing state in 2024, but just imagine (and I don’t think this will happen) that they put up zero deep state arrests, covered up the Epstein scandal and launched a war for Israel against Iran, AND then prosecuted Tucker Carlson for trying to get Trump to keep his campaign promises.
If you wanted to destroy this country, this would be the best course of action.

@noncetparibus @Porky_Logan @ComicDaveSmith Until you vote for the irrelevant candidates, you will keep getting alternating terrible warmongers.
English
@Porky_Logan @ComicDaveSmith Yeah he should have instead voted for bug chase oliver, who was only 8 billion votes away from relevancy
English
@NDelonas @Lieboisout They were terrible. But he did have a choice. For someone claiming to be libertarian he could have overlooked his hatred of Chase Oliver for being gay and supported him instead.
English
@Lieboisout He didn't have much choice, did he? Wake up and realize how mind-bogglingly bad Biden and Harris were. How bad? My god, Trump won. That's how bad!
English
Dude, you endorsed him. The man has shown who he is for decades, and you endorsed him.
