Plot twist: they can't navigate entire cities. Some very well maintained streets, maybe.

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 40 points 2 days ago (4 children)

Maybe we should build streets especially for them, then. Except I don't think they'll need the full width of a normal street. With their computer-driven precision they could probably get by with just a couple of narrow strips of metal.

[–] zikzak025@lemmy.world 31 points 2 days ago (2 children)

And you could probably optimize traffic by increasing the size of the cars to include a lot more seats, or even standing room. Or even connecting multiple cars together for efficiency if there are a lot of other people who want to take the same route.

[–] toxicbubble@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago (2 children)

you're on to something 🤔 perhaps some type of rail that goes on the road for high speed travel hmm

[–] Mr_Fish@lemmy.nz 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Ah yes, trains, the logistics version of "evolve into crab"

[–] searabbit@piefed.social 9 points 2 days ago (2 children)

People always complain about "reinventing the wheel," but it just brings me so much joy when the discussion inevitably ends in rediscovering trains as the ideal mode of transportation.

[–] deft@lemmy.wtf 4 points 2 days ago

Trains are good but trolleys are too

You guys need to watch Adam Something (or probably already do) 🤣

[–] green_link@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

we'll rename the cars to "pods"

[–] DupaCycki@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

Pretty sure some wooden planks in the middle would do wonders for stability and durability. Maybe some gravel too. Why has nobody thought of this yet??

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No, just one strip of... it's really more of a shelbyville idea

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I've heard those things are awfully loud.

They are Jesus fucking loud dude. So loud we'd have to make a song about the bordello or something

[–] Alphonsus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Nice thought. 👌👌👌

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 94 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Self-driving cars cannot navigate entire cities. No.

[–] lyralycan@sh.itjust.works 30 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

From what I've seen self-driving cars can navigate a 4 mile pre-learned route from the showroom to the delivery truck co.

[–] PwnTra1n@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Yup waymos are all over the place in phx area. Teslas might not do it but that doesn’t mean nobody can. This isn’t even Chinese electric cars with crazy features as well

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Tesla is an industry joke. Keep your eyes peeled for Zoox.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Phoenix (and LA) are famous for basically not having weather. These things are working well in Richmond, or Boston.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Phoenix has all their weather in Late Aug through Early Sep, in the form of monsoons and haboobs. Then again in late Jan through early Feb, in the form of frost and a light dusting of snow that immediately melts.

ATLien here. Seeing a Waymo ruins my day. Seeing one of the freeway my whole week.

Wouldn't chalk be faster, cheaper, and more wind-resistant?

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 56 points 3 days ago (1 children)

But chalk is used for summoning spells.

[–] MrChewy@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

Thank you, a man of culture!

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 12 points 3 days ago

Sure, or just a can of white spray paint. I assume it works too, if this does. I dont trust Lemmy random meme pics though.

[–] franz_augustin@feddit.org 12 points 3 days ago

And better for the environment

[–] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

You can do the same with ants and chalk circles

[–] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 53 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Can I hire Etsy witches for this?

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 35 points 3 days ago (3 children)

You can hire Etsy witches for WAY more things than you think.

[–] zikzak025@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

Anyone have the contact info of the one who killed Charlie Kirk?

[–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)
[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

I like to make my brownies myself. I'll figure out what else those witches can do for me

What if you draw two yellow line circles around it?

[–] lime@feddit.nu 21 points 3 days ago

and chickens

[–] SpatchyIsOnline@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago
[–] UninterestingVoid@reddthat.com 19 points 3 days ago

Guess they are demons.

I always wondered why Vampires don't just eat the salt.

[–] addie@feddit.uk 20 points 2 days ago

Really traditional vampires are super OCD; one of the ways to get rid of them is to spill a big bag of eg. rice in front of them, and they'll spend so long counting every grain that they'll get caught by the rising sun. Salt ought to work as well?

One grain of salt, two grains of salt. Ah ha ha ha. Three grains of salt...

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 14 points 2 days ago

They have hypertension and it's bad for them.

[–] yuriRO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 3 days ago

Subaru Impreza 1998 would never

[–] blarth@thelemmy.club 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

TBF I know humans this would work on too.

[–] bilb@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 days ago

Me! The bullies at work keep doing this to me :(

Whomst the fuck tried to use a fae as a substitute for a daemon? It's called a daemon engine not a fairy engine, there's a reason we don't use fae and it's shit like this and them just inventing new terms of service. Shoddy craft all around, whoever made this needs to return to Zharr-Naggrund and be made into an Infernal Guard.

Snail warfare

[–] titanicx@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago

I highly doubt this is true.
