Sometimes you need to seed back more than 200% because the other two people might not be able to seed it back. I would generally not set a limit

Wouldn't it be worse for other patients if he stays in hospital longer because he made himself sick from not taking medicine rather than just making sure he does to clear the bed sooner?

just found out that oreos are vegan, still trying to wrap my head around the least vegan looking biscuit ever, that massively marketed itself as being synomous with milk containing no animal products in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net

I live in Australia but normally get around with a folding bike that I can take on busses and trains easily, however I have decided it's time to learn to drive, not due to any love of cars but rather just so I can do it if needed. Also I technically own half a car so it would be good if I can use it if I am ever moving or doing a political event or something.

So on to the story, my driving instructor was a good teacher, however the entire time he was complaining that cars don't have right of way and have to go 40kmh lmao.

He watched a pedestrian cross the road on a green pedestrian light, and complained about the pedestrian not looking... because they have right of way. We also had him tell me the busses shouldn't just pull out when they have indicated for 5 seconds and should still give way (legally they do not have to... because they are moving far more people than a mostly empty car)

Also said it was stupid that cars have to go 40kmh on busy roads with businesses on either side of it as pedestrians may want to cross, instead of having to give way to cars...

Do people in cars really all constantly get mad they don't have absolute right of way at all times???
