I'm sure there are many counterexamples for that

At least they didn't choose 100k or 10k

The solution to both bullshit jobs and no life could have been to downscale work time not amount of people. If 20% of people is enough to do the job, maybe it's better to keep everyone but let them work only 20% of time?

That won't pass the shareholders' vote, of course, because optimization must only mean "money optimization"

That's what I'm saying and people call me radicalised for that 😅

And again, you don't need to go exactly at the [increased] limit, you can go below it and allow for speedometer being not exactly correct

The second part seems like it could be fixed by people not trying to drive as fast as they can, imo

The first one, well, now in those specific situations they just need to speed up even more because everyone is already driving limit + whatever is allowed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Afaik, when performed correctly one will not struggle for breath, the body would be alive for some time but no consciousness remains at that point

I heard that some countries have zero leeway for speed limit trespassing, like if it says 100 and you go 101 that's a fine time. I don't understand why that's not the case in other places, why not increase the limit by that 10 mph/kmph you allow now and stop allowing speeding at all

I only saw a decent product once, it was Henson razor. Not sure if it's ethical and fairly priced (those are somewhat hard to tell, imo). If I weren't using it already, the sponsorship would have deterred from trying 😅

Yeah, my friend noted exactly the same about visibility that time 😅

But hey, at least he's famous now, sort of

There's another extreme, when a friend of mine took me for a ride in a two-seat convertible BMW X2 it felt like I was barely above ground. When one of the SUVs was near us at a traffic light it felt like it was going to run over us without even noticing
