With that logic we should replace streets next to CEOs and politicians with data centers!
Is he suggesting that playing in the streets was something he used to do before the advent of cars? Like there were all that roads everywhere with kids just playing on them willy nilly, until one day Henry Ford met General Motor and said, “You know what we oughta do with all these fuckin’ roads?” And ever since then, kids haven’t been able to play on them any more?
Is that the version of history we’re pedaling here?
The other day, a group of kids were playing road hockey in my neighbourhood. Rather than run them over, I waited for them to pull their nets aside, then drove on. Whether he believes it or not, we can still allow kids to play in the streets. It’s probably safer for them than spending their time with AI search bots.
spent years of my childhood playing two-hand touch (american) football on streets with friends - the exercise and bonding benefits where invaluable. huang is part of whats wrong with our world.
I don’t know if using pedalling vs peddling was intentional, but it was funny
Even if it were historically accurate, look at the absolutely depressing statement that makes it : I had to give up playing in the street to make way for cars, that’s just the way it is.
idk maybe there were roads for carriages before cars were invented? I’m not old enough to know
Roads have been around for thousands of years, but not really the type of roads he’s talking about. Especially since he doesn’t remember them before cars anyway.
Neither is fucking Jensen Huang, the car was invented over 100 years ago for fuck’s sake.
Society is always changing. We have a choice in how we change it.
These technocrats are so entitled they don’t GAF about consent. “If you’d only relax you’d see how great it feels.”

Jensen, buddy, go fuck yourself.
And many people realize now car-first urban design is a bad idea. There are pushbacks to make streets pedestrian first
People definitely still do play in the streets. Maybe not in America though.
Not in poor america*
Kids play in the streets all the time in cul de sacs in affluent suburbs with low car traffic
I grew up in America in the 90s. We always played in the streets. When a car came you yelled “car!” and everyone skedaddled to the side of the road until it passed. I still see kids playing in the streets occasionally, depending on the neighborhood.
KIds and Adults play in the streets. “game off, game on”, are still in use. People will have a hoop set up at the curb. Maybe that’s just ‘small town’, but I’m talking neighborhood small streets, not major thoroughfares.
But iy is fun playing Frogger on the highway. It’s also a game you can play alone.
You do You, my friend.
Stanley Motor Carriage Company’s Francis E. Stanley says everybody should drive Stanley Steamers. Society has no choice but to change.
There are more and more people saying you should go fuck yourself so i guess neither will get what they want.
Please, Jensen, demonstrate how you used to play on the streets. In fact, do it at night or in the fog. Anywhere with low visibility for drivers.
yeah jensen, don’t be pussy, keeping playing in the streets
Jensen can suck my Huang
