As an American I'm newly flabbergasted by this every damn day

They probably did think of it but then rejected it when they found out how progressive Jesus is

Because Warren would have been better...? Your attempt at bad faith questions don't even make sense. If Warren had been elected, she would have been to the left of Biden, who (according to whatever your source is) is the most left wing since FDR. So how much more so would Warren have been. I think all the dialectics are rotting your brain, comrade.

without compromising on visual fidelity

But it does compromise. Netflix has the worst banding issues in low-light scenes of any of the streaming services I've tried. It's hard not to notice and it's very annoying.

For me, I can take chips on an empty stomach all right around breakfast time (not that I would generally want to). Later in the day, if I don't eat protein or fat before eating the chips, I'll get a headache and joint pain. In the evening, I'll often get pain regardless of what I eat.

And they give you a headache if you eat them at the wrong time

Driving is never going to be predictable enough to consistently get you to a destination where 30 seconds is a life-or-death class difference. The other people you're getting angry at are also workers struggling to live in the same capitalist hellscape and you don't know what's going on in or around their car (this is the "fundamental attribution error"). Your anger at other drivers is misplaced, and further, makes you a more dangerous driver.

Seriously. Drivers really seem to lose their sense of time. Going 5 mph slower (or even 15) for a couple minutes won't impact your arrival time (or will do so only negligibly) because you're just going to have to wait at the next light anyway. And getting angry while driving is just as dangerous as other causes of distracted driving.
