Particle board is heavier than un-processed wood. Ikea does sell some stuff made from actual wood if you look for it. I bought an unfinished pine table from them for $60 a few years ago.

You own the copyright of your photo, AI flat art has no copyright, therefore the only copyright is yours.

And we do this by flinging metallic lead all over the countryside.

This limitation is too easy to get around. Have AI generate a picture. Take a photo of that picture and destroy the original. Copyright is now owned by the photographer. Have an AI write some music, change one note of that music and call in your arrangement of that piece, destroy the original music, and only your arrangement that you have a copyright on exists. etc.

Some idiot is going to hang out near the camera with a boom box and play loud engine noises every time an electric vehicle drives by.

There seems to be yet another new battery technology that will save the world every day. And yet, they never become available to the public. I really wish we could ban them from announcing until they can mass produce the battery and sell it to the public. It is almost as bad as all those articles about the "flying car that will be available next year" articles that have been appearing in magazines since the 1950's.

Pilsner is not the only alternative to IPA.

so make the cars go somewhere else

Your first suggestion Is what I hate about the car hating crowd. Remove that from your agenda. Make your alternatives better than a car without screwing over the car drivers. You will make more people accept your changes that way. Light rail in San Jose is a disaster, it does not go to useful places, and it gets there slowly. It should have been a subway so it could be independent of surface traffic.

Thank you. I am very much in favor of fully open projects, so I am giving this one a try first. I found there is a desktop version as well, but it does not detect the GPS dongle plugged into my linux computer, and crashes if I try to search my own address. I can put in a 1, but when I put in the second digit, the program crashes. Routing seems to work fine on the android app though.

The evil thing about this is that it will be at minimum hours, possibly days, before someone who did this can come back to complain.

Had to get blockchain in there somewhere to appeal to the idiot investors.

If you want people to abandon cars, make the alternatives better. Unfortunately I never see that happening, I only see attempts to make car travel worse. I hate public transport with a passion, because it is so bad. When I was commuting, it took an hour each way to go 13 miles, but if I tried to take public transport, it would have taken two hours each way, including 2 miles of walking on a state highway with no shoulder and no sidewalks. Would have had to take a bus to the light rail, and change trains at least once. This light rail shared the same road that cars use, so it was subject to all of the same traffic issues that cars suffered.
