Except for the phrase "or else!"

Oh that's good to hear!

It's been years since I needed to use it, but: lack of an undo button. Not being able to undo stuff was very annoying, and felt out of place for an otherwise nice piece of software.

Saving lives is the main thing for me. Waymo at least seems to take safety fairly seriously, with data indicating they cause far fewer serious accidents than the average human driver.

Traffic fatalities are one of the top 3 causes of death for kids in the US (iirc it's right behind firearms).

You misunderstood their point. Singapore has mostly public housing, instead of private.

Ah, blue city progressivism: "Welcome to my country! Now get the fuck out of my city."

Also, note that these cities always happily welcome more offices and businesses. They just don't want to build the housing for those workers to actually live in.

You seem to have completely missed the point.

Growth should be checked by (reasonable) zoning, not by constant one-off meetings that make the de facto rules stricter than the on-paper ones.

Laws and code should be transparent.

People are arguing about this but just making the cap income-dependent seems an easy fix.

I'm not a Republican, but if this is accurate, it's something that these companies (or individuals in these companies) should be prosecuted for.

Hardware looks good except the FoV is really bad, a huge downgrade compared to the Quest 3.

I totally agree. If homelessness is causing you to become a public nuisance (meaning lawbreaking) then clearly something has to be done. It should be a choice of help or jail, where obviously we'd prefer they get help, but jail is the stick.

It shouldn't be a crime exactly to set up a tent in a park because you're homeless, but if you then refuse to get help from society to fix the underlying issue, that's not acceptable. Can't have it both ways.

Related, I usually hate CRT filters in game, the scan lines usually look too strong (and often the image is darkened inappropriately), but I really liked the one in Cyber Shadow. It just felt right.

I think you're right that people are against these things, but wrong about the reasons.

Taking homeless people to jail because they're homeless just seems stupid and pointless, not to mention harmful to the person going to jail.

Shelters have the issue where people don't want them near where they live (for often justifiable reasons) but obviously they have to go somewhere.

I understand why, but it often results in bad outcomes. Part of why transit in other countries is better is often precisely because of greater commercialization. It's not just that it's more convenient for travelers, but also it makes money to fund transit.
