in america? do you understand the scale of things here?

Yes. And yes.

and much of the population is spread out. like a hundred miles from the city isnt a crazy distance. it isnt densely packed little states.

You do realize that was a deliberate choice, right? It isn’t like that just happened out of no-where and now it is suddenly immutable, right?

itd be a project on a massive scale to serve few people spread out all over, and even then some people wouldnt have access.

Imagine if what was spent on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_Highway_System was instead spent on rail. 34 year project costing over half a trillion in today’s USD. Why is this generation so scared of massive infrastructure projects?

most cities here do have mass transit, but for those not living close enough a car is the fastest choice to get to their destinations.

And the mass transit is deliberately hobbled (busses/light rail/tram sharing the same lanes as cars, not funded adequately to be scheduled frequently enough to not have to overly plan your day, etc) . And again, the choice to live far away from economic hubs is a result of poor policy (zoning, parking lot minimums, building height restrictions, etc).

But really, these are all self-inflicted problems that can be solved, if only you dreamed a little bigger.

Gonna guess you’re old af and watched those shitty ads as a kid staying home sick and watching daytime TV

Why do you put up with it? Invest more into public transit, segregated traffic lanes for buses/trams/bikes, and more sane transit policy.

Plus laser and under barrel flashlight. And a little dangly charm of Calvin pissing.

ITT, people that don’t check the date

I remember doing this with NetZero accounts. You could trivially hack out the ads, and dial in-twice (if you had two phone lines), and do the bonding. Free slightly less shitty internets. Very useful for Napster and LimeWire back in the day.
