Plot twist: they can’t navigate entire cities. Some very well maintained streets, maybe.
Maybe we should build streets especially for them, then. Except I don’t think they’ll need the full width of a normal street. With their computer-driven precision they could probably get by with just a couple of narrow strips of metal.
And you could probably optimize traffic by increasing the size of the cars to include a lot more seats, or even standing room. Or even connecting multiple cars together for efficiency if there are a lot of other people who want to take the same route.
you’re on to something 🤔 perhaps some type of rail that goes on the road for high speed travel hmm
Ah yes, trains, the logistics version of “evolve into crab”
People always complain about “reinventing the wheel,” but it just brings me so much joy when the discussion inevitably ends in rediscovering trains as the ideal mode of transportation.
Pretty sure some wooden planks in the middle would do wonders for stability and durability. Maybe some gravel too. Why has nobody thought of this yet??
No, just one strip of… it’s really more of a shelbyville idea
Can I hire Etsy witches for this?
Wouldn’t chalk be faster, cheaper, and more wind-resistant?
Sure, or just a can of white spray paint. I assume it works too, if this does. I dont trust Lemmy random meme pics though.
Self-driving cars cannot navigate entire cities. No.
From what I’ve seen self-driving cars can navigate a 4 mile pre-learned route from the showroom to the delivery truck co.
Yup waymos are all over the place in phx area. Teslas might not do it but that doesn’t mean nobody can. This isn’t even Chinese electric cars with crazy features as well
Phoenix (and LA) are famous for basically not having weather. These things are working well in Richmond, or Boston.
Phoenix has all their weather in Late Aug through Early Sep, in the form of monsoons and haboobs. Then again in late Jan through early Feb, in the form of frost and a light dusting of snow that immediately melts.
ATLien here. Seeing a Waymo ruins my day. Seeing one of the freeway my whole week.
Your source is waymo’s own propaganda (which is NOT about cities in general it’s about nine specific American cities), my source against even that much is everyone else seeing them get stuck regularly:

Anyways, I’ll leave you to your corporate dick sucking.
I swear you are implying you have never seen a human get stuck navigating a car for what would seem to be mundane or pointless reasons…
Humans all have different levels of competency, Waymos all have the same level.
How is this relevant?
If it is relevant it’s a strong premise to add to the argument to why we need to strip people of their licenses, but that’s not germaine to the conversion.
Dumbass, it means what causes one waymo an accident or blockage, blocks them all. This is not so with drivers. What’s more drivers learn immediately.
Take your anti-human, pro-billionaire bullshit elsewhere. My point was already proven with Waymo its self not being able to tackle cities in general… Which is the fucking topic. Not how much you’ll bend over for them.
I always wondered why Vampires don’t just eat the salt.
Really traditional vampires are super OCD; one of the ways to get rid of them is to spill a big bag of eg. rice in front of them, and they’ll spend so long counting every grain that they’ll get caught by the rising sun. Salt ought to work as well?
One grain of salt, two grains of salt. Ah ha ha ha. Three grains of salt…
TBF I know humans this would work on too.
Does popping a cone on the hood still work? I don’t live close enough to the airport to try it anymore
Whomst the fuck tried to use a fae as a substitute for a daemon? It’s called a daemon engine not a fairy engine, there’s a reason we don’t use fae and it’s shit like this and them just inventing new terms of service. Shoddy craft all around, whoever made this needs to return to Zharr-Naggrund and be made into an Infernal Guard.
So you’re saying the self driving cars are actually demons?
Its not even a self driving car in the picture
Looks like a mid 2000s audi or vw
There are people that believe this bullshit?
I don’t know how to switch accounts and fucked up my wife’s entire persona she was building by commenting under her account. Instead of deleting the comments when I realised my mistake, I instead just switched accounts and left those comments there for her to find when she woke up. I claim to have planned to go back to delete them, but instead I was just gonna completely forget about them.
I am so smart 🤓

Magic always beats technology
dean’s impala would never fall for this.
You know, I’m glad that self driving cars are deciding to be safe rather than sorry when confronted with situations it wasn’t trained for, like witchcraft.
Can you do this with sidewalk chalk too?
I imagine so, as long as it’s solid enough to look like a real road marking.
That said a web search revealed this was from 2017 so I have no clue if it still works at all.
Probably not, frankly
The most popular “full self driving car” Tesla only uses cameras for navigating.
I would bet 500 that this still tricks teslas.
Fucking before the telsa was even announced there was 100 YouTube videos on how its impossible to do full self driving due to elons stupidity of refusing to add lidar. And like 10+ years ago teslas where supposed to be 2 years away from fsd. Its almost 2027 and we are still 2 years away from full self driving. Weird huh?
Binding spell to keep the swastikars away
A spider does the same to humans.
I actually love this
So they are like chickens and beetles.
It works on beetles too?
With them I guess it is is a sensitivity to certain smells so they wont cross marker lines.
