I wanted to go to my first Combo Breaker in Chicago but that's not happening.
Oh look, a person who gets it!
I meant 40 km/h using the machine's power. There is a different vibe to someone pushing hard to reach 40 km/h on the kinds of streets that have a 40 limit (corner coming up every half mile, stop signs, lights) and someone that just twists their wrist and accelerate to 40 in a timely manner while sitting tall. Drivers react to the two very differently.
Cleaning. I clean before breakfast when not on a work day. It feels good to clean my filthy place after a week of wake up - work - nap - eat - sleep with the occasional Video Games between the after-work nap and night.
Nothing like doing the dishes to get my day started.
I would argue that anything that can't reach 35 km/h belongs in the bike lane, and everything faster belongs on the roads. Once you get past, say, 40, you can keep up with cars well enough for it to not really make sense to be in the bike lane anymore.
The book was some good ass "turn your brain off slop". The movie tried its hardest to turn your brain off by force.
That movie was a mistake, but then it made a lot of money and that's all the goal was.
Dude would get merked before he gets to speak in front of any kind of microphone. There is no way in my mind he makes it to a jury trial alive.
I'm federalist and I'm voting Bloc. That's how you know shit's dire.
At least you can count on Canada to send help to the more dire areas to stop the worst of the civilian impact. You're not alone in the world.
I don't think there's more disinformation as before in terms of % of info being wrong, but a lot of people have gotten really good at calling it out. The best example on-hand is the "cigarettes are good for you actually" and "we will buy tramways put of every city in North America and tear them out, then sell you a car!"
It's always been like this.
We didn't have a printer so we wrote down the instructions and memorized them as much as possible because we understood that not paying attention to the road would get someone killed.
The same people can't get their fucking eyes off their cellphone now.
I used to but I don't anymore. I can't afford to give money away when I can't even pay for my own bills.
Put something on a public platform = accept that people will look at it. Allow for people to comment on it and you invite these comments. If someone wants to post pictures and not get comments on them, they can post them to a platform that doesn't allow comments.
It's a risk I'm willing to take!
They're gonna fight it, but not for the fans. They're doing it for themselves. They're a company too.
Considering the origin of carbonara, it's not that weird.
Being co-owner does mean you own it. It is a form of owning that is perfectly acceptable to me. I would gladly own a condo if I could afford it. I don't need to own the land my property is on to consider myself a homeowner.
Eden ring censored "Knight" to "K***ht" iirc
Montreal transit in shambles
Our dear local asshole, Geneviève Guilbault, minister of transportation, has announced that the provincial government would reduce its investment in Montreal's public transit, forcing the metro to close at 23:00 and reducing the frequency of night time busses.
With all the progress that Montreal has had in the last 10 years, it is appaling to me that the provincial government would try to nip it in the bud. We are SO CLOSE to being such a great place! The Plan Vélo is going well, with only one hiccup in one borough. We have the REM, the REV, the metro has a pretty recent batch of new vehicles, we have a robust monthly card system that took years to get moving as well as it is now.
We were doing well, but the party in power lost one seat in an election recently. They are now in "appeal to our voter base" mode. Our government does not get many seats in Montreal. They are further to the right wing than the typical Montréalais, especially around the city center. They show their hand by b
The government of Québec goes back on their "public transit or nothing" pledge on 3rd link
I have potentially devastating news.
The provincial government of Québec announced in April that the "third link", a tunnel to cross the river between Québec City and it's suburbs, would either be car-free, or it would not be built. At the time, a lot of people across the province celebrated. Some car brains were unhappy, but that's fine. They're never happy anyway, whatever is done. Studies showed that current traffic did not require a new automobile bridge, and that it would invite traffic that the city couldn't handle.
Yesterday, there were provincial elections in that region, and the party in power lost a seat. They immediately started playing defense and said "maybe we should consult the local population on whether we should make it automotive after all".
We all know where this is going. They'll make that dumbass bridge for cars. The prime Minister can't walk back on his word a third time and still win his elections in 3 years.
I may not live in the region, but I truly believe
