"All those alternatives sound like they are for pussies.
I drive a huge truck and like to roll coal on dumb environmentalist.
Any Republican asking me not to drive my big penis wherever I want is a RINO.
TRUMP 2024!!!!!"
I hate Republicans. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Like it or not one company is 60% of the EV market in North America and the name synonymous with EVs. Personally I don't like it, single points of failure are just that but that's how it is for the foreseeable future. People like you remind me of that Jim K. Benton cartoon "Sure the planet got destroyed, but for one beautiful moment Tesla stock actually crashed" | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
You better start pulling yourself up by your boot strap and start walking up both hills in the heat and snow storms. Or you just not Texan enough. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Texas, the state that promotes freedom, self reliance, small government and whatnot asks in a big government manner people to avoid using freedom. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Good thing Texas infrastructure is built around a well deserved public transportation system. This could have been in another not so progressive state… /s | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
No, I don’t like it.
And yes, their stock will crash.
And yes, they still make a shit product. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
First off, maybe they shouldn't have made our infrastructure so car-dependent.
But also, I love how they're not daring to ask businesses to change literally anything, just asking us to maybe reschedule our little fun activities after a week of showing up at the office for a job we could have done remotely. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Summary:
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has declared an Ozone Action Day for the Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Galveston, and Brazoria areas due to high levels of ozone pollution or smog. As a result, Texas officials are urging residents in these areas to minimize their use of cars and adopt alternative transportation methods like carpooling, walking, biking, or taking public transit on Friday.
The National Weather Service issued an alert stating that atmospheric conditions are favorable for producing high ozone levels, and suggested ways for residents to reduce pollution such as conserving energy and maintaining vehicles.
While air quality is currently moderate in these cities, some individuals may experience health impacts, and the Houston area had the sixth highest Air Quality Index in the nation as of Friday morning. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Ground-level ozone is a hoax. They just want to control your movement. This is an infringement of our freedoms! USA! USA!
/s | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Reaching pretty damn far there.
Tell me, who controls the texas legislature? Who is responsible for asking texans to not use their cars?
Don’t worry, I’ll wait. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Or Austin traffic. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
I'm not convinced Texan politicians really care about looking bad, considering Cancun Cruz fled to Cancun while the state lost power and froze over. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
They’ll make it illegal to monitor ozone levels, problem solved. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
15 minute cities …. Rabble rabble rabble … tyranny … rabble rabble | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
That’s a narrative for zero accountability. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
“And also please keep your rolling coal to bursts of 10 seconds or less.” | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Also you're a commie if you want literally any other form of transit that isn't cars. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
I take it you've never been to Texas lmao | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Just 9? Cute. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Very spatse public transportation outside of downtown Dallas. No cars, no shopping no going out etc. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |

Can’t let the environment beat those pesky quarterly profits | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
How company sell cars and make money if everyone ride train?
It's all corruption from the top down at the violent expense of the entire planet. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
And for no reason. My company has pulled in record profits the last 4 years but still say it is time to rerun to the office. No data driven reason to justify it. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
"I paid for this office tower, and by god we're gonna *use* this office tower!" | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Nice. I sit in my office on Zoom meetings with people sitting in their offices. We all work in the same building. Some of us have our offices right next to each other. It’s so damn odd and stupid. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
And some of the best electric output, but no storage or connection to sell. They have the most degraded infrastructure with the highest top end output wind and solar, but would rather just piss it back to the ground, then share when they have excess, and accept when nessasary for their constant infrastucture deficiencies | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
This order is very ironic, since this is Texas. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Don't want all that car infrastructure to go to waste! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Or be female | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
WOAH WOAH WOAH I thought if Republicans cave on these ideas it’s a win for the libs?! Can’t have that!!! We gotta burn more coal than the Industrial Revolution days! We need the shittiest quality emissions tested Ram Trucks out there on the highways now! I wanna see so much smog you can’t see two inches in front of yourself. Why two inches? Because many of them consider that to be a significant amount. /s
Fuck the lengths people will go to pretend like serious crisis isn’t on the horizon is painfully apparent. We’re beyond fucked at this point in time. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Because businesses will do the right thing on their own! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
normal trains, or LRT. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
I'm going to be honest, work from home just seems absolutely awful. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
On a more serious note, they will let commercial real estate collapse but only when the big players have exited their positions (probably to everyone’s pensions and 401k’s) and are in a position to profit from it.
Then they’ll create the GFC 2.0 with CMBS (Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities) as opposed to 2008 MBS Mortgage a backed Securities | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
*pavement princess (I know satire, but the more the term spreads, I cope a slim chance the fad may die) | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
More like “I’m getting massive tax breaks from this municipality for guaranteeing X number of people commute here five days a week, and I’m not giving that up!” | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
It couldn’t possibly be that last year, they doubled their freaking emissions. What a garbage state! Constantly blaming cities and minorities for their problems when it’s their immoral, greedy, racist and incompetent leadership to blame. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Also they say how concerned they are for the ozone layer….but barely mention the people and the real affect this has to their health — especially if your surrounded by it in a city (even in your apartment). This state is so bizarre. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Texas the land of no decent public transportation doesn’t want you to use cars. What am I supposed to do then? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
FFFFRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
If management isn't coming into the office, than everyone should ignore return to office mandates. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
That’s fucking wild coming from a state that actively tries to sabotage its own development of public transit | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
What state would be more car centric? Alaska? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |

As an Ohioan I agree. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Somehow Texas cities are even more shittily car-centric than Detroit which is kind of mind blowing. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
‘Best’ and ‘most fragile’ rarely go together in any engineering context found in the real world…
Highest potential? Sure. ‘On a good day’ - spot on. I’ll even take ‘made some interesting choices, because they threw out national standards’.
But unqualified ’best’ is… uh, yeah. Not so credible. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |

They choose to be in the office. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Okay, I see where you're coming from. It may just be me, maybe I found the right job field for me, but I had a very similar experience doing online classes in college. It really was not for me. But I have done very well with WFH. I truly have no desire to ever work full time in an office again. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Texans will vote these official out, close this agency down and encourage all residents to go rolling coal as a response. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Eh RTO is a good thing. WFH is killing downtowns which is ironic since a lot of young people especially young professionals now want to live downtown. Multiple restaurants and breweries have closed in my city in the past year because the lunch crowd, like 1/3 of their business, simply vanished and never came back. Healthy urban environments require people. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
I'm aware of the benefits, just doesn't outweigh the negatives for me. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Too bad 15 minute cities are actually just China slave camps so you made it so you have to drive to everything.
Well I assume the goobers down there that don’t want 15 minute cities have the same reasoning as the goobers up here. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Uphill, both ways. In a 3 feet of snow with blistering heat from the sky. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
This came from National Weather Service not Texas politicians | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Part of that was economics, part was racial segregation ending and white flight, and a part was actually planned and encouraged to reduce the impact on population and infrastructure in a nuclear exchange with the Soviet Union. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
The reason is to justify the cost of the commercial real estate. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Corporations and the rich can pollute all they want . But regular folk are made tk be the bad guy. We should stop subsidizing oil and gas and giving carbon credits and tax breaks to the wealthy polluters . Just one of my opinions my friend . | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
It wasn't because nah. It was because it was obvious that upper management didn't do shit, and they had nobody to phisically boss around and do their work ( paper trail) | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
I bet that the petrochemical industry in Galveston is a major contributor though. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Yeah right, asking Texans to stop using their cars for awhile is like telling them to slim down and not drink iced tea always. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Dang must be tiny | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |

What about trucks? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Is there anything the republican government in Texas *can’t* mess up? 2 out of 4 seasons are unlivable due to the electric grid, women are being persecuted for seeking medics care, and now you’re not supposed to drive. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
you can easily find a 2020 model 3 with full self driving and 40k miles for $25k. 210 miles of range, and supercharges to full in 30 minutes from zero. more typically i’m charging overnight, and never from zero.
It’s actually amazing and people who know, know.
the car literally drives me everywhere i go with nearly zero disengagements and a few interventions - mostly to give it “throttle” in situations where it is too slow. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Capitalism wants RTO. Municipalities give tax breaks to companies to bring workers into the cities to support local businesses, restaurants, public transit, and other services. Also commercial real estate. You have decades of infrastructure, both financial and structural, that expects and needs a daily influx of workers in major cities.
That can change, but it will be painful and costly which are both things people don’t deal with well. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |

The same companies that are wanting their employees to come back in the office are the same companies that also own the real estate on the office building so they’re losing money in one part of their business cause they’re not paying into it. This is why. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Want a good one, im Canadian, we got 3 tax hike to help pay for our very low carbon foot print. But the government forces its employees to go to the office to remote also with other since not garanteed you will be placed together, now they want to force them to comme in 3 days... | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
This right here. This is the linchpin holding the American workforce tethered to businesses that know they could revert to WFH for everyone and see profits soar. But the landed gentry refused to see a single ding to their portfolios. So we slog like serfs for the petty lords on whose fiefs we toil. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
As my fellow r/fuckcars/ lurkers can attest to, Texas is a _very_ car-dependent state. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
MUH FREEDOM!!!! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Not everyone can afford to go out for lunch while at work. Not everyone who can afford it wants to go out for lunch, they’re happy bringing lunch. Not everyone wants to commute. Not everyone works in a downtown area. It isn’t my responsibility to RTO for the sake of other businesses especially when I am nowhere near downtown. It costs me money to commute and makes traffic worse. If you wanna RTO that’s fine, do what you like. Me, I’d rather WFH, with my coffee setup in the next room, my fridge handy for lunchtime, my dogs sleeping at my feet, no commute, and oh by the way I am a LOT more productive at home. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
I shutter to think about what texas is going to be like a decade from now | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |

Well THAT doesn't sound very independent at all, Texas. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
this is my job. If I am not traveling for work I am in the office and most of the time I am in the office my other co workers are traveling. We have 40 employees. There are days where there are jut 4 of us in the office and I spend the day on zoom calls. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Why is this news?
The Houston and Dallas metro areas exceed the ozone standard about 6 days in both May and June.
Denver and St. Louis are about the same, and Chicago is worse (average of 9 days every June). | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Reminder that not every single person in Texas voted for this, and not every person in Texas even *can* vote. We shouldn't write off the entire state as getting what they deserve when not everyone contributed to this. People are suffering through no fault of their own, and things need to change. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
I think I remember the DC mayor advocating people to come back to work because the district’s economy was tanking hard because no one was there during the lunch and dinner rushes. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Dallas, Denton, Tarrant, Collin, Rockwall counties, etc.... | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Or maybe they can incentivize EVs which don't contribute to ozone.
But that would be too logical for Texas, can't have that. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
