Crusing Self-Driving Cars Saving Money
Due to the exorbitant prices being charged to park in cities, many self-driving cars have begun "cruising" instead. While this may sound like an amazing idea at first glance, a deeper dive is necessary. With electric, and subsequently self-driving, cars becoming more and more common this is predicted to heavily contribute to traffic in especially high-density areas. It may even give a whole new meaning to the phrase "gridlock." According to transportation planner Adam Millard-Ball, an associate professor of environmental studies at the University of California, Santa Cruz, "Parking prices are what get people out of their cars and on to public transit, but autonomous vehicles have no need to park at all. They can get around paying for parking by cruising," he said. "They will have every incentive to create havoc." >>Source

Healthier Activity Begets a Healthier Diet
A study from the University of Texas found that those who willfully engaged in exercise soon found themselves craving a healthier diet. They first found a sample of 2,680 young adults who were not exercising regularly or dieting. Those involved with this study were only instructed to start exercising regularly, these changes in their diet were just a pleasant side effect. Many of the participants also reported feeling much better after retiring their more sedentary ways, however, this is less surprising and is fairly well documented previously, >>Source

Crowfunding for Kurayukaba Anime Ends with 276% of its Goal Reached
The Crowfunding for Shigeyoshi Tsukahara and Twiflo's original anime project Kurayukaba ended successfully this last Wednesday, they raised 6,901,864 yen which is about $63,000, from 397 backers. 276% of its 2,500,000 yen goal, which is about $22,100. This campaign had the goal of creating a 30-second video, but due to the success of their Campaign they're now able to create a one-minute video.

Twiflo described the anime: "Our story is set beneath the surface of the great metropolis, below the district of Ogi-town in a realm of dreams that floats in a haze of purple lignite smoke. A network of roads stretches away underground, concealing bandits at every turn! An armored train snakes through the looming darkness: the steel-clad train Sokore 463 is equipped with a 75mm mountain gun that can blow a target to smithereens! In command is the mysterious girl Tanne. What awaits her and her comrades? From the winding alleys of Akegata (dawn) to the deep subterranean world of Kuragari (dark), a daring adventure unfolds!">>Source

"About 118,000 I believe. I was a bit late to the party."
~Kill Joy

"I had the most bytes on the forum. 4.2m into crypto game."
~Anonymous

"I think I made upwards of 400k before the reset. I did play."
~Oblivion

TOPIC: If you could only post on Hack Forums one more time, what would you say?

"To Lavish Living: Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries!"
~Kill Joy

"I'd drop all the info I have gathered in a single post."
~Anonymous

~Oblivion      

TOPIC: Would you say high quality threads are more or less frequent lately? Why do you think this is?

"Depends on where you look I guess. If you’re in the Lounge most of the time, of course they won’t be HQ. I think specific sections Like photography have good tutorials but more are always welcome."
