There's the bias between users willing to share that data and those not willing. All sorts of correlations could be hiding there.
I can't find out what the rate of refusals are, but I'd guess them to be rather low, maybe 10% at most. The survey is incredibly easy to perform and very transparent about colleted data.
The important thing to realise is that the survey is very consistent, so while the baseline may have some bias, the trends are very representative.
Steam deck isn't just support for linux, it's also a fully fledged portable PC. Perfect for those who don't want to upgrade (#2) and those who want to play desktop games without messing with a desktop setup.
Public airports aren't exclusive to private jets and private schools aren't publicly funded.
Roads aren't exclusive to cars and most of the private schools around here do receive public funding. Just because something is used poorly doesn't mean it's completely useless.
Every single road where pedestrians or alternative modes of transportation aren't allowed and isn't part of a public bus route is car-only infrastructure.
The only road around here that pedestrians and bicycles are explicitly barred from are the freeways, where blocking traffic is very dangerous, but busses, utility vehicles, and industrial vehicles use those all the time.
A highway that busses aren't allowed on?
These exist. You are aware these exist, right?
No, I'm not aware of public roads where it's physically impossible to run a bus line or ride a bike. If a sedan can use it, a bike can use it. If a delivery truck can fit, so can a bus.
I am aware of roads too dangerous to bike on and roads too sparce of destinations to run busses on, but that's because of how roads are used, not a condemnation of roads themselves. If the city decides to add a bus route to a road, no infrastructure needs to be changed. If someone decides to send a charter bus or shuttle, the roads are open to them.
Hey! I'm using one of those devices!
Private jets are also a privilege, should we demolish all airports? Private schools too, should we have no education-only infrastructure?
The issue with car-centric infrastructure is that it prioritizes expensive and inefficient systems over others. It's the priority that's the issue, not the existence of roads at all.
What would car-only infrastructure even look like? A highway that busses aren't allowed on? No utility vehicles? No firefighters?
Busses use car infrastructure, is my point. Almost all car infrastructure can be used to run busses. You can expand that to most utility vehicles too, postage trucks and garbage trucks need to get around too. There is no such thing as car-only infrastructure. Car-centric, sure, but not car-only.
A bus in a kind of car. Biking 30km in one go is a bit much too.
Or just that it needs to focus on from of itself like filter crabs, or that it needs to see through things like kelp forests or hole enterances.
Given it's size and the extreme binocular vision, it's unlikely to have any ambush predators.
I looked it up, it has bony plates all over it's body and likely a lateral line, so seeing predators directly may have been less necessary. It was also a suction feeder, so likely an active predator of much smaller things. It may have needed good forward vision because it's maneuverability was poor.
Ironically, Stockholm syndrome is named after an event where hostages in a bank robbery were treated with contempt from the police and government. They spent six days having the police point guns at them and the prime minister telling them to be content with dying. The robbers treated them rather well, especially in comparison to the authorities.
Capitalism makes for a much worse captor. I think it has more in common with a cult, constantly spinning a narrative of how it makes your life better and without it you'll live a wretched life. How people outside of it are evil savages, and how they're coming for your peace and quiet. How life under capitalism is the best you can do, even if it isn't perfect.
I'd argue that we can't do a resurrection because that's really complex, not because we don't know how.
I'll also point out that there are people alive today who were declared medically dead that live normal lives because we made their heart beat again.
More wheels is also good on low traction surfaces, or to reduce ground pressure. An extra axel can also reduce the chance of beaching on rough terrain.
Like what? Are there special roads that busses can drive down but a sedan gets stuck on? Some kind of road made especially for the tires of the bus and no other vehicles? Like a tram system, or gondolas maybe?
Cars and busses are both road vehicles, and roads serve them both. We can put up signs and write rules about which vehicle can go where, but those are basically free to change.
