Sorry, but triumphant claims about autonomous vehicle safety are wildly exaggerated.
It's an open question whether today’s self-driving cars are any safer than those driven by humans.
And if reducing crashes is the goal, that isn’t even the right question.

and i've been hoping to eat a chili pepper that will do this to me ever since
29 years ago today, Homer Simpson had an epic chili pepper-induced hallucination. “El Viaje Misterioso de Nuestro Jomer” first aired January 5, 1997.
Most of the sequence was animated completely by David Silverman as he wanted it to look exactly as he had imagined it.

It's literally always acoustic foam + pyrotechnics in a single exit basement club, I don't even need to read the articles. Dipshit owners killing people with their own idiot negligence
BBC News non-stop reporting on the fire at the Swiss nightclub like “nobody knows what started the fire” while also showing footage of the inside of the club where robots are carrying around bottles of champagne shooting fireworks out of the top. I’m not a forensic investigator but I have a theory
