I keep the Bluetooth icon always visible in the system tray, double clicking it opens the paired devices directly. Still working on 11.

To be fair, it looks like what happened could have easily happened to a human driver too. Human driver hit a woman, making her fall right in front of another car who stopped when they were over them.

Another fix: remote work for all who can. No more traffic, no more living close to economic centers (expensive housing), leaves a lot of available housing in the cities (no more homelessness).

ChatGPT's answer is on point:

A content creator is someone who produces and shares content online, such as videos, blog posts, or social media posts. An influencer, on the other hand, is a person who has the power to affect the purchasing decisions of others because of their authority. knowledge, position, or relationship with their audience. While content creators may also be influencers, not all influencers are content creators. Some influencers may simply share their opinions or experiences with their audience to influence their decisions.

I'd say influencers business model is to sell stuff (sponsored content/merch) while creators goal is to live from sharing their content, by the means of selling their own merch or using sponsors.

I own a Tesla, I can't imagine buying any other make now. The full experience is incredible. Every time I hear what's going on with the new cars, especially EV, my answer to all the issues is always the same: get a Tesla instead.

Also: Musk is a shitshow on legs

Not only province, but doctor/hospital but mostly urgency.

If you've got something critical, it's super fast, otherwise it can be pretty slow.

Examples:
went to the emergency for something stuck in my eye, 3am. Went in, waited 3 minutes to be checked, saw a doctor 15 minutes later, by the 1h mark I was out with 1 nurse and 1 doctor who had seen me and removed what I had and another nurse who had given me a vaccine shot.

On my way out, I talked to someone in the waiting room I had seen at 8PM getting a softball to the side of the eye, she finally saw someone around 11h after getting to the E.R. (they quickly evaluate the urgency when you arrive).

Almost 4 years later, I'm still waiting for my vasectomy appointment.

It's usually for a good reason though

Do you have access to food, stores, etc using public transport? How do you go about buying stuff and bringing it back home?

To me it's the complete opposite. How can you raise children in the city? They can't go out without a parent watching over them, they don't even have a garden to play outside. By moving to the suburbs, my kids can just get on their bike, scooter or skateboard and meet up with their friends at their home or at the park, even as young as 8, it's a pretty safe place and they've got plenty of outdoors to enjoy. We have room for the pool as well as the trampoline, playing soccer and kids can just walk to school super early.

I moved in to the city when I was 14, after growing in the country/suburbs, when you're a teen, it's fun to take the bus to go watch a movie with your friends without relying on a parent driving you there and back. But younger than that, take your bike and you've got complete freedom!

I couldn't imagine raising my kids in the city so we moved out before having them, now I can't imagine moving into the city ever again, I actually almost never go to the city except to visit friends or some museums, too many people, bricks and asphalt.
