Anarchists are not intellectual to put it mildly

“… and we need to actively discourage people from owning and driving cars and it should be illegal actually” — FUCK NO.

I don’t know why pro-public transit people have to be so obnoxious about this and ostracize people who would otherwise support their cause. I also find it amusing that they’re more than willing to be massive dicks to me for not hating on cars, until I mention I’m disabled and immune compromised and a lot of times not being able to go DIRECTLY from point A to point B (and limit my exposure to other people’s germs) will stop me from being able to do things and go places. At which point they usually stop engaging with me because I don’t fit the stereotype of disabled and unable to drive.

I assume it's like gun controllers who say "well, if we don't want to take away ALL the guns, then it doesn't count as taking away guns."

I still remember the pro-transit idiot who was absolutely certain that it was practical for businesses in a busy Caribbean downtown area to install showers for employees who wanted to bike in to work.

They took the mask off because they really, really want other people to be forced to upkeep a system for others that don't or won't pay into it. If and when electric cars get off the ground that need no rare earths at all, and drum brakes that collect their own brake dust, and biodegradable car paint, it's going to mean from soup to nuts, no part of the automobile will be detrimental to the earth. There won't be emissions. There won't be hazardous asbestos. There may not even be forms of plastic or composites that poison the earth.

I would like to share with you the most exquisite example of what the anti-car and walkable city/15 minute city concept looks like, and all the painfully obvious ways that it is wholly unworkable, retarded idea, that requires the presenter to try and fudge and handwave their way past said problems.

Even when they get exactly what they want: A walkable city that doesn't allow cars, with quirky little small businesses, and so on, they replace owning a car, or needing to buy groceries or buying fastfood with... uber and other gig economy delivery services.

You're gonna open up Resource Monitor (resmon.exe) using the start menu or the terminal, or you're gonna go to Task Manager and click on the Performance tab, where there may be a button to go to resmon.

You're gonna go to the CPU tab. You're gonna expand the Associated Handles section, enter the name of the file/folder/whatever you want to delete and hit enter.

AND THEN. Windows will show you a list of everything that's using the file, and you can either kill those processes manually, or right-click the handles within resmon and kill 'em from there.

You're welcome.
