This is pretty unbelievable, since our local businesses are all hurting downtown, and it only seems alive when we block off vehicle traffic during special events.
Promise you these businesses would be the ones protesting if they tried to remove 12 parking spaces to replace them with a bike lane.
But yeah, I love an “activated pedestrian square” with no means of access other than driving.
Lebron’s aura was the only thing keeping AD from falling apart.
Nothing. Sorry. I was unclear. They’ve extended their ban on new buildings taller than 50’.
Same city that recently extended their 50’ building height limit (despite already having several apartment buildings taller than that).
he had posted gleeful pictures of himself bulldozing Palestinian homes so it’s very cool that we got some fascist on fascist murder
We don’t know what their contract says, but if the studio head is saying “never”, then presumably that’s what the contract says.
Who’s the man-child here? Tim Sweeney? The CEO of Remedy?
I haven’t been keeping up with the weird Gamer tantrum about Epic so I’m not up on who you guys are mad at. Or why.
Epic paid them a bunch of money for the exclusivity. Money they needed to produce the game. Remedy needs the money upfront. And Epic takes less of a cut than Steam.
I feel like you’re mad at the wrong people?
More than twice as long as walking is impressive.

China’s road infrastructure is all much newer than most other developed nations. And since it was built later I imagine the materials and civil engineering undergirding them is better.
However, the bill always comes due eventually for reinforced concrete. It’s currently coming due in most of the west now from all the freeway building that happened in the 50s.
China still has a long time til they’re in the same place, and it will be interesting to see if they learned the lessons of not deferring maintenance.
I assume this increase in men being single has led to increases in male loneliness and subsequently the massive chauvinist backlash and rightward shift that’s been happening in S. Korea.
What’s needed here is to sell off the lamp posts to a private corporation and then to rent them back from that same company!
As someone who views prison as rehabilitative and not punitive, I could not disagree more.
That accepts the framing that we’re designing for cars/bikes/peds. We’re not. We’re designing for people, whether they’re in a car, on a bike, etc.
In that sense it’s very much not zero-sum.
It’s only a zero sum game if they view driving as an essential and immutable part of themselves, and even then, not really.
Charging adequate prices for street parking, for example, guarantees that you’ll always be able to park easily if you need to, a luxury not provided by free parking.
And then, of course, they could always just get out of their cars and immediately start benefitting from the changes.
did they install it via an electric car?
Can cats have little a salami?
Damn maybe we shouldn’t be giving Israel bombs.
the Knicks also did not have KAT last night
