Really? I’m also not sure why exactly he’s being downvoted, but only bc there’s many possible reasons.

• There’s no way transit-stabbings are a real problem, anywhere. Even in the grungiest places, it has to be a fake problem like elevator cables snapping or plane crashes and it’s all fear-mongering.
• You can make these comments everywhere and they’re always unhelpful. Oh, a “bus is high capacity” post? Yeah, but they’re unsafe here, I’ll pass. Oh, a “bus is super safe” post? Yeah, but they’re very infrequent here, I’ll pass. Oh, a “bus is super frequent post”? Yeah, but we only have small ones, I’ll pass.
• The comment implies smug dismissal, yet that problem and the post’s problem have the same solution: more investments in public transport.

I’m starting to develop a vigor for public transit to match the one forced on us for car infrastructure in the 60s. Bigger, taller, more, I want 3 bus lanes and a tram line to any town in the country. We can do no wrong taking back all the space we gave to the car, as long as the garbage truck fits on the street, car users can share 1 lane both directions. Take their parking, take their license for rolling stops and using their phone, gift them e-bikes.

Make transit free, let the highways rot, expand the railways. Sorry for that pothole, all the money was used up by rail.

Just anything better than we have now. If we have to act fast and break things, so be it.

Maybe he’s into crazy girls and it was a compliment? 😏

I’ll assume since I am someone else, but kernel level anti-cheat is basically Spyware, or at least a privacy concern.

All he had to go off was a vehicle with 2 teenagers inside and the call from his girlfriend that there were trespassers on the property. Depending on what exactly was said on the call and what happened between him blocking the vehicle in and the shot, he might just have shit trigger discipline and his girlfriend is the one who is super scared of anyone she sees on their security cameras. He is still an idiot for trying to block their vehicle in any case though.

Would you like the Placebo with Diarrhea or the one with vomitting for your headache?

Never understood those circumstances, but I choose to believe that all even numbers summed are -2/12 and all odd numbers therefore 1/12.

Are you describing yourself here or what?

You made a snarky comment, I made a snarky joke in the same vein, you decide to bring in statistics (of the wrong country btw)? Why?

Much like the middle finger gesture is offensive because outside the US many people die to birds.

First the unhelpful answer:

I transport groceries with my e-bike and a bike bag on either side of the rack. They may not be quite as fancy as the ones you can unhook and carry into the store and the design is probably from the early 2000s, but they’re BIG, so they’re great (apart from the fact that they create so much drag that cycling without the motor is an ordeal).

Other than that, I did use a shopping trolley for a while. It was fine enough. Wouldn’t recommend to transport cats in those though, you probably need something with tires, not just wheels.

Tlazcala delenda est?

Yeah, I was just pulling your leg. Being a goofy goober. Why would you read this very specific list of games and think I was earnest?

Tomb raider had infinitely many rumours about a nude-cheat because boys were so thirsting about Lara Croft, while Metroid and Shantae reward fast playthroughs with bikini pics.

Man, am I glad I grew up with less horny games. Like Tomb raider, Metroid or Shantae.

The real reason is probably that we said comparable stuff, just as whispers and not written in an anonymous forum. And we weren’t even egged on by forum culture or our games to be as horny as possible, the former drives engagement while the ladder drives sales.

A few years back, I would have said that they are trying to uphold the image of democracy. “Vote for Harris, a guy you’ve never heard of or this criminal, your choice” isn’t a good look… sad that we ended up here anyway.

Probably also trying to avoid the headache of “what happens when a candidate is sent to prison”. That’s either going to be a lot of work for you or someone you know higher up, who isn’t going to like that paperwork, especially such a high profile case.

There are about 2000 wild tiger left, I found this article from 2011 saying that they might be extinct in the wild by 2030.

So there might be 2000 ecological niches for smilodon to fill in 5 years. We better hurry then.

You cannot make the Minecraft movie nowadays… you simply cannot, Warner Bros.

• Step 1: acquire genetic material
• Step 2: supplement material with closely related extant species <- We are here
• Step 3: Get an egg cell with your Frankenstein-DNA to survive and divide
• Step 4: Produce a healthy baby
• Step 5: Get a small population in a Zoo/Park
• Step 6: have a permanent wild population in a specific area
• Step 7: have enough of those areas to declare repopulation a success

Is fixating on the mammoths here first-world centrism? The article mentions 4 other species that have way better chances. Also, given how far we are from actual wild mammoths, that “it can solve climate change” argument is just wrong the way it’s been presented.

I don’t, if that question really is honest. (But also not in the US)

But you really shouldn’t be surprised, most people live in major cities.

…do your legs fall off once you’ve given birth or why is being a mother a factor?

Also, I’m pretty sure most 40 year olds are still able to bike perfectly fine. That’s the stereotypical age range for picking up jogging, right?

But they’re right, the priority is having a working tram/bus network, and having safe lanes for (e-)bikes as an extension of that system.
