GiveOver
One time I had an ex ask me for some obscure cable that I happened to have. We went over to my cable drawer and as I pulled it out she said “Why do you have this drawer of random cables?”
FOR THIS EXACT PURPOSE BECCA YOU BITCH
I just had an adventure on Google Street View dropping into random neighbourhoods, and it varies a lot by town. Some places like Leeds and Sheffield had wide roads that would have perfectly coped with a ban on pavement parking. Other places it looks impossible. Here’s a place I dropped into in Bolton. Those people would really suffer from a ban. I guess this is my main issue with it, you’re disproportionately affecting the less well-off. The middle class will be fine with their driveways and spacious estates.
Absolutely impossible to implement where I live up North. Half of the town’s cars would have to go. Which I’m all in favour of, but there’s a lot to sort out first (e.g. public transport and cycling infrastructure). Or I suppose we could put up a bunch of parking garages everywhere but that would be awful.
25kmph and 250w, off the top of my head. You need to pedal for the motor to engage, and they count as a bicycle so no insurance needed. The twist & go bikes (no pedalling required) are basically motorbikes with pedals so they’re technically illegal but they’re still widespread. You’ll regularly see them in every city centre for food deliveries and you’ll see kids on them everywhere else.
The lack of bicycle paths is a big problem but I don’t think they’ll solve it entirely. The barrier of entry is just too low, any idiot can ride one and be oblivious to the danger as they weave in between people.
I wish there was an opposite thing we could do. Like a fundsinker that would cost him money.
Love how you’re downvoted so much for this. The internet is so funny sometimes. You need psychiatric help because you like getting drunk. Could you imagine the response if you said that to somebody in the real world?
I’ve had countless great times and made some great friends getting shitfaced. According to Lemmy I’d be much healthier sitting in my bedroom reading stories about Donald Trump and getting angry about car based infrastructure.
Yes. Phones not snooping 24/7 with a microphone is better than phones snooping 24/7 with a microphone. What kind of question is this? If you get people used to the idea that phones are always recording, people won’t be as offended when these dickhead companies actually start doing it.
