@Dannylad9525238 @peterrhague Not even braking is enough, if the back of the bus can't get fully clear of the cyclist before you start slowing down, you trap the bike next to the bus.

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@DrDomBrown @peterrhague that literally all the bus has to do also.

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@PaulSres @peterrhague yeah, the bus would arrive at the stop abour 3 seconds later, and not be a dick.

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@drewsnx @peterrhague yes, this is my bugbear. If the first time I see the front of your vehicle is the indicator already on, don't overtake!

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@peterrhague This is a dick move by the bus. if you can't actually get clear of the rider, you shouldn't just pull over next to them.
You'd hate it if you were driving a car and someone overtook you, just to immediately stop in front of you.

@Just_SumBloke @tonytardio is it a good use of tax payers money to pay $1500 so the parents can go to work on a sunday would be my question.

The problem always with these programs is they incentivise people to use more expensive options than they would ever consider with their own money.

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@asymmetricinfo Isn't that a good deal though? Better to get seats to avoid a narrow loss than reduce what would be a big loss anyway?

@1auvender "I certainly hope you fired your manager for giving you useful advice!"

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@celerian @Math_files yes, the problem is if it IS an integer, it is a perfect square.

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@JoyceCarolOates It's rare for anyone. The point is you live in a media ecosystem where you hear a lot about rare cases involving black people, and little to nothing about rare cases involving white people.

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@jacobbuysokc @hoodservative yes, but acting like Damon is describing here makes getting to 3 generations much harder!

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@JinzoMc @Umwizza12 I mean he clearly was too drunk to consent to starting that fight, so really he's the victim here right?

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@nataliapetrzela "do you rly think the problem is that high performing kids can learn together at a faster pace?"

Yes for a lot of "progressives".

1st pref: Lower performers magically get better. All would like this.
2nd pref: Prevent screening revealing a reality they wish wasn't true.

@MoldyDolphin @ASFleischman If they were just innocently sitting in their homes, and you dropped boiling water on them, yes that's worse.

If a violent mob starts smashing the windows on your house, they initiated the violence.

@PanasonicDX4500 How would you feel about doing a job for the income level from 20 years ago?

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@HashtagGriswold Budget for lion king was $45 million - I find it hard to believe they offered an unknown 13 year old 2 million lump sum to perform a song.

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@devicecontrol2 And if their paycheck is already >= what anyone else will offer them?

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@janecoaston So you point is that black americans are the most racist?

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@McReynoldsJoe @Noahpinion Yes, white people are the only people in history who favour something if it helps them, while opposing it if it disadvantages them!

[Owen Griffiths @OwenGriffiths13]

@DrCameronMurray Tax breaks for super is a bs measure. "Hey, we would take 45% of what you make, but if you do what we tell you to, we'll only take 15%.".
The tax rates on non super income are not some eternal truth. Without "super tax breaks" regular tax would be lower.
