I know a lot of people want self driving cars, but did you ever think about how the cops would be able to just program it to bring your ass in for questioning? Just lock the doors, change direction and boom; you’re at the station. No warrant, just hijack your ride 😬

Minority Report came to mind immediately after reading that too

Go to Threads and it's all about the iMessage/Beeper mini debate.. come to Mastodon and it's all about Threads testing federation and the takes on that

Yesterday on Facebook I was grousing about how people deliberately misrepresent the concept of the 15 minute neighboorhood, and a FB friend claimed the 15 minute neighbourhood would mean no access for ambulance and fire trucks. I wished it had just been some random yahoo. It's sad to see people you know taken in by such BS. #urbanplanning #toronto

@Jgmeadows
I feel all the local groups on FB are like this.. any driving complaint and someone in the comments is using bike lanes as an excuse for literally anything.. yet it's the same people, who are in their cars, causing the congestion
I can only spend maybe 5 mins on those groups before I get too frustrated by the sheer stupidity of takes lol

I wonder if the DVP and Gardiner going to the province will see increased OPP on those highways.. seeing as the TPS doesn't bother handling speeding or traffic violations anyway (unless it's a streetcar blocking traffic because they don't have any brains)

@dharrison @gemelliz
Ah yeah true, that makes sense

don't ask me to explain this but if you mixed Neil Gaiman with David Tennant and turned them into Santa he would look exactly like this

T-Mobile switches users to pricier plans and tells them it’s not a price hike

T-Mobile: "We are not raising the price... we are moving you to a newer plan."
