    Generally when approaching a intersection on a red light you should stop the car so that you see the white line at the top of your hood. This allows you to also see the painted crosswalk and any pedestrians in the crosswalk (no matter their height) when sitting in your car.

    If it’s a two lane or more roadway it also has the added benefit of letting the driver to your right see pedestrians more clearly if they are making a right turn.

    The person in the car furthest right can now pull up and have their wheels touch the white line (if turning right) and not have to block a crosswalk, while having a full unobstructed view of the intersection to the left, it also allows a pedestrian crossing to see the car in the far right line as they approach the end of the intersection.





  • This just in, Canada post and other mail providers will now be opening all envelopes and packages sent. All contents will be scanned or photographed and held on file for 2 years time, and released to relevant authorities upon request of investigation. To make things easier please do not seal packages or envelopes for easier and more convenient access.

    All photos and scanned documents will be held in a highly secured database with easy backdoors access!

    Pretty much the equivalent in terms of what Canada wants to implement with access to signal chats, VPN logs, and asking ISPs to keep logs for 1-2 years minimum.

  • I can’t really get behind a “do all robot” that wanders my house fully autonomously.

    What I would prefer is single purpose robots, mounted or bolted in place, designed to do one thing well.

    For example, robot arms that put laundry into the laundry machine, or robot arms that do the cooking in the kitchen. Something similar to how Tesla had that autonomous plug in “snake” charger once you parked in your garage.

    Having a fully autonomous robot walking around the house is somewhat unnerving to my TBH. Even so if it were fully locally controlled I might still have hesitations. Think the short TV series Cassandra (2025)
