Given that Google search only returns like 9 websites now, shouldn't be too hard.

Google sucks now, use duckduckgo or something else.

Just joking, because people used to complain about this for whatever reason on reddit, and 4chan.

Don't mess with the BSD gang, let this be a lesson to anon.

Stealing from 4chan, we really are reddit's child.

Possibly so.
When they say the "first" I cannot tell if they mean the first one I mentioned or the first one they mentioned.
Relative references in language is confusing!

The entire conservative, pro cop playbook is "say silly things, pretend you don't know they're silly".

And if anyone calls you out, act offended. Everyone knows if you are offended you are right. Growing up in a religious household it's incredible how many times I saw someone use, "You're rude therefore you are wrong" as a core tenant of "debate".

The 'victim card' is the conservative 'race card'.

I am surprised there isn't a torrent version of Yuzu.
A magnet string would be unstoppable.

Pretty sure I found one, can magnet strings be posted here?

If this were to come to pass, it would be a massive hit to the middle class. Truckers make up a HUGE part of the American middle class work force.

Also consider the economic impact to all of the gas stations and rest stops created primarily to service them, a huge amount of infrastructure exists to service truckers. That said, many could convert for autonomous service needs? I expect it to be a net loss for them also. RIP Loves?

And from a technical point of view, it's a lesser challenge than generalized self-driving because point A and B are already known for each route, so more of the route could be "hardcoded" (not actually hardcoded but I think you get the concept).

That said, I can't predict the timeline of when this would be feasible, but when it happens I expect it will cause a lot of anger from truckers.

Anyway, the jist of my comment, this will route a substantial amount of middle class wages from the truckers to the truck owners, increasing inequality even further.

This is the biggest catalyst to sway the public toward a UBI than anything else I can imagine.
