Buy me an ice cream and I’ll worship whatever you want for the next 10 minutes.

Just buy a 3d printer and you will find that there are a bajillion doohickeys and whatsits that you never knew you needed. Half of my house is now 3d printed.

2016 started off all mouldy and is now just a pile of toxic sludge.

Ribbert is such a good name for a frog.

Poast is just full of arseholes. Don’t even waste your time looking.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8356316/ “Red light cameras (RLCs) reduce injuries but may have no effect on total crashes”

https://blinksandbuttons.net/are-red-light-cameras-effective/ "Studies have produced mixed results over the years, but several key findings can be highlighted:

Reduction in Fatalities: Many studies indicate a reduction in fatal accidents at intersections equipped with red light cameras. A study from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) found that states with red light camera enforcement saw a decrease of 24% in fatal red-light running crashes.

Decrease in Injuries: In addition to reducing fatalities, the same IIHS report noted that injuries at intersections also declined, with a 14% decrease in injuries related to red-light violations.

Overall Accident Rates: While some studies show a decrease in severe accidents, others note that total accident rates may increase. This is partly attributed to the phenomenon known as “rear-end collisions,” where vehicles that stop suddenly to avoid running a red light may lead to accidents."

Do you want me to go on?

Bob Holness played Saxaphone on Jerry Rafferty’s Baker Street.

Different sorts of accidents. Red light cameras result in more fender benders, fewer T-bonings. In your example, 9 fewer T-bonings at the expense of 12 extra fender benders.

Christ. Calm down.

Absolutely nothing there suggests any of it was done for profit.

“Evidence clearly shows that camera programs are effective at decreasing the number of vehicles running red lights. In one study in Virginia, red light cameras reduced the number of total drivers running red lights by 67 percent.” Seems pretty effective to me.

"When the Houston cameras were removed, angle accidents increased by 26 percent. However, all other types of accidents decreased by 18 percent. " So, a net increase in accidents. I can’t make their numbers match up with their conclusion.

Nope. Best thing to do is browse all the posts on all the communities for a while and then start subscribing to the communities you think you might like. There is also https://lemmings.world/c/newcommunities@lemmy.world for new communities to advertise themselves.

The reason the camera is there is because of the crashes that happened when it wasn’t.

Yay! Crashes! 🥰

We aren’t all yanks, you know.

Fewer bots.

The same number of grammar arseholes though.

Chuck Norris doesn’t deserve jokes about him because he’s a right wing arsehole.

I don’t know if it’s different elsewhere, but in the UK, the only difference in Black Friday prices is that there is a label next to them with a fictitious price they are supposedly discounted from.

I think the idea is that men don’t want to admit they have feelings and are lonely because that’s a weakness.
