Cory Doctorow (npub1fdr…lvhs) on the practicalities of #jetpacks "Even a brief moment's serious consideration should make it clear why we wouldn't want the distracted, stoned, drunk, suicidal, homicidal maniacs who pilot their two-ton killbots through our residential streets at 75mph to be *flying over our heads* with a reservoir of high explosives strapped to their backs."
I read this after driving two hours on Michigan highways, and this gets a solid AMEN from me. The #trucktopia here is a bit unsettling.
