Unless the weird smells come from the driver. If a customer causes a smell the car will be cleaned and the customer fined. If the driver is smelly - like from sitting in a car all day - there's nothing to be done.

The requirements they failed was meeting 100mbps down and 20 up. They were measured at 90/9.
Starlink meets the intent of fast internet, if not their arbitrary line. Everyone I know who has one loves it.

Most mentally ill people are still perfectly capable of making decisions and you need the approval of 2 doctors.

The guidelines want you to be kind, which is orthogonal to right.

Are you sure? I struggled for years to maintain a decent mark in french class. 2 months of duolingo for spanish and I was able to have conversations.
A grammar, written first approach is hard and boring but it does scale to 30 students for 1 teacher though.

I agree that the importance of knowing another language will decrease but being fluent will still be better than having a translator in between.

How can you fix the incentives so locals actually want densification?
I always liked the idea of more local taxes rather than federal. Then the larger tax base would improve services or do a direct transfer.
