      These USB plugs wouldn't last a day and would contribute to the issue of crime on public transit. They invite homeless onto vehicles and many end up causing disturbances, fights, and other issues on the vehicles.
      Instead, we provide them at the transit centers on a 1-hour time limit. They can plug into the outlet with their own charger or use the integrated USB plug at 5 watts. After the hour is up, they have to move on to allow others a chance to charge. It's not an optimum solution but it sure beats not having anything at all.

    And if you disable a traffic light and a crash occurs, why aren't you arrested? If Al Queda or ISIS hacked into government computers and disabled a traffic light to cause injuries or death to people, wouldn't they get arrested?

You're just the typical brainwashed right winger thinking they have a clue when they don't. If capitalism wasn't destroying the country and making people unreasonably poor, they wouldn't be stealing copper wire. Dare you to try some independent media and stop suckling mainstream bs.

    • @davidinwashington
      @davidinwashington 7 месяцев назад +2

      Aluminum is about 1/5 the current price of copper so this might help. But copper is generally preferred due to it's expansion / contraction properties. Aluminum expansion / contraction loosens electrical connections over time leading to electrical fires. There is a reason we don't use aluminum wiring in our homes.

    • @davidinwashington
      @davidinwashington 7 месяцев назад +1

      I should also add, Airbus likely chooses aluminum over copper, a> because aluminum is lighter weight which saves airlines fuel costs down the road and b> most of the aircraft is built from aluminum so Airbus has a ready supply of it and the tooling to work with it and c> aircraft are highly maintained so the mechanics likely re-righten electrical connections as part of their normal maintenance routine (reducing the risk of fire.)

    Stop signs suck. Stoplights suck too.

Most drivers only yield at stop signs anyway. Stop signs should only be placed where there is poor visibility for drivers of the cross street.
