    I understand it could be way worse, that doesn’t mean this is good. I’m the one that told them about tariffs, I’m the one that told them about the market crash and how they just lost 20% of their retirement savings. I’m the one that just got laid off. They simply do not believe that things are so bad and going to get so much worse. And its only been 100 days. They think everything will be back to normal once the next Democrat is elected president. I told them I genuinely don’t know if the US in its current form is going to exist in 10 years and they didn’t even think about it, just said yes it will. There is so much I would have to explain to them for them to grasp the reality of our current situation, but they don’t care. When they stop getting their social security payments they’re going to be genuinely shocked because they haven’t paid a single clue into what the magat regime laid out in project 2025 and are carrying out without opposition.

    My parents just stopped watching the news about anything and just sit thinking everything will be okay. Its starting to get difficult to have a relationship with them because they are so out of touch with reality. They even go to protests but for them its just a thing to go do because they’re not doing anything else. They have zero understanding of any of the reasons they’re happening other than trump bad.


  • Most rigs go at least 1,000,000 miles and that isn’t isn’t even end off life. You’ll be paying not much less than new for a rig that only has 100k, that’s practically brand new. These systems should have 100 million proven miles. These things weight 80,000lbs which can be very hazardous materials.

    You should see the pile ups semis cause in low visibility. Even with really good lidar, I hesitant to say autonomous trucks can be safe running off independent systems on full mixed use roads.

    We could add those systems to all roads to feed back to semis to know conditions and hazards miles before they reach them. We could build new smart roads for all autonomous vechilce to travel on separately.

    Or we could just end the 100+ year old railroad cartel. Could move people and cargo with ease. But that isn’t profitable.
