[00:37:35] <exec> 08└─More to the point, even when the 'drivers' were doing nothing but watch the car drive, 2 seconds wasn't enough. Five seconds was just enough when the 'driver' was watching the car drive attentively but 8 was better. But that's not the real world at all. In the real world, the driver will be on the p...
