IMO there’s too much interpretation left in such laws. Means no one behaves to them consistently. As example I’ll glad get over to the right if I’m passing traffic while in left lane but I’ve gotten over too many times to have the person behind me not go fast enough to get in front of me by...

I’ve known of that to happen! Though it was in a small town.

Yep. Much less safe when people do that. Best laws I ever seen about driving were out of Germany. They had 2 particularly good ones. If a vehicle was approaching you and you were both in the left lane then it was your obligation to get out of their way. The other was the zipper law where...

IMO some concepts are just difficult to place all the nuances into words. I think using a definition that underfits the concept so as to make everything definable as that concept is infinitely worse.

IMO there are many instances where speeding is safer than not. One example is going quickly around a semi truck in the interstate instead of passing it at a snail pace. There’s also a weird effect where speeding can cause you to have increased awareness of surroundings.

I think there is a big boundary over what counts as valid intents. Like a player in d&d typically won’t have the intent to get to the ship before it sails. That may be his overarching goal but his intent is always the here and now, can I convince this guard to let me past so that I am one step...

The absolute irony here is that this is about site ads. If I’m paying either by exposure to ads or by paying to get the ads removed then we could frame that as prolific posters who cause others to sub are paying the site with their time/posts. If they are paying the site then the site offering...

Yea. I guess free to play pc games are paying you to play them. And my friends once provided snacks to me when I ran a game for them. I’m such a paid dm. /sarc

Granting a gift is not paying. Especially when it’s a gift that costs one nothing.

No?

I normally assume that if we are at the point of talking about rules problems that the possible approximations have been considered and already rejected. If they were accepted then it wouldn’t be much of a rules problem anymore? One might also suggest refluffing over outright houseruling...
