    Honest question. What is the origin/reason of this fashion to prevent the use of capitals?

      I think it’s primarily younger people who learned to type by having a computer or tablet in the house without the need for formal typing lessons. And then at the other end of the spectrum we have people old enough that they didn’t really use computers in their youth and are learning the technology the same way the kids are. I think typing with capitalisation is most common in people who attended computer classes as part of their grade school education. I think the farther we go past the advent of the home computer, the more people will be typing lowercase in casual chats. I don’t have any hard data to back this up, just a collection of anecdotal observations.

      I’m pretty sure it started with artists using lowercase in their titles and album names. I have 0 evidence for this

          Yeah but if you brake you will slow down quicker than the logs. The logs won’t just suddenly shift their momentum upon falling off and jump into your vehicle.

          Yes. You are both going the same speed. Unless there is some obstacle on the road that will immediately stop the log your brakes will do a better job of slowing you down than a log will just sliding on the road. The bigger danger is honestly driving towards the truck in case this happens

    Speed limit: 65 Trucks: 55 I pass a truck at 76… That’s a ticket, 11mph over puts you in the “real fines” zone. Never mind that the truck was going 21mph over his speed limit.

    Oh, and then the officer says… Since its a first offense, you can waive the fine if you take our online class, and it won’t be reported to your insurance.

    The online class has a fee of exactly the fine +$10. Payable to some private company of course.

    I wanted to turn around, drive back to Nebraska and [fedpost].
