I agree. For safety mostly but even for "fuck cant we just drive somewhere and that be considered enough achievement, like it is 1989"

In 1825 people would stare at an ox’s ass for days straight thinking about nothing much.

In 2025 we can’t spend 10 minutes without doing something else while traveling at speeds that would make a sailor blush.

You make a wrong comparison: you can easily stare at a 3D printer for hours how it prints the object layer by layer.

Try it out - watching this is sooo soothing and relaxing. :-)

You mentioned a 3D printer and I immediately thought you were going to suggest 3D printing an ox's ass for staring at.

I would do this just for the meme of it, complete with screenshot, if it weren't for the fact it'd be huge and take up a ton of filament.

now here's a legit ai use case: saving on filament for meme production

Make the ox ass smaller and closer to the face. Could 3D print one on to glasses frames.

In 1825 they would enjoy the process of traveling. In 2025, there is nobody taking joy in the journey. It's all about the destination.
