therefore human-sized hampster balls are an inefficientmeands of transportation? what are we going to do about people who want to do that in an environmentally friendly society? maybe just apply a tax on the inefficient methods and let people do whatever they want including walking, riding a bike, and taking transit?

I think people who commute farish in a car daily should be first to get electric cars, and then people who use cars less than daily for groceries or something, and lastly people like me who drive in the same town once a month or less.

nice policy I like it

Japan has car-supporting streets narrower than this and the residents have not much complaints, they just put one-way road signs and use smaller cars or bikes and everything just fits. Residents should’ve gotten a smaller car before moving in when they saw the size of the road.

in this situation I think it would be safer to make a shared car+bike lane where cars have to slow down for a narrow (for cars) lane and the lane is simply too narrow to pass the bike so no passing.

reminds me of Edison Motors part selection process… they usually pick the most common parts available that have as much in common as possible with other electric equipment or vehicles. For example 12V automotive fuses are usually all the same for all vehicles, but expand that paradigm to cover as many components of the vehicle design as possible.

today I was on my daily commute, the first 15 minutes are through dense urbanish suburbs and the last 12 minutes are on a highway. Waiting behind a garbage truck and a school bus interacting with the sides of the road.

I thought “I don’t belong here… no, my car doesn’t belong here. Would be much easier to bike from my house to the parking lot near the highway and drive the rest of the way. Would cut down on time wasted waiting in this congested traffic.”

Take advantage of regulatory loopholes to affect the design of parking garage such that the parking garage can be almost instantly retrofitted into additional manufacturing space.

Bathrooms on every floor, cargo elevators (for cars, but can be repurposed for forklifts), the ramp is just a spiral on the side and not integrated into the structure, the height of each floor is consistent with the rest of the building, level floors, Include provisions for additional electrical, plumbing, compressed air, nitrogen, dry air, vacuum, and HVAC systems, etc.

That way, when cars drop in popularity in a few years, they can retrofit the parking garage into additional manufacturing floor relatively easily.

I think it would also make a difference to remove parking lots from bars, to make it harder to drive to and from places to drink.

someone should start an advertising campaign showcasing serial killers using cars instead of guns

vehicles over 5000 lbs should pay a tax, which should be used to upgrade infrastructure. This tax would likely be very steep.

clearing snow off the top of a sedan to commute to/from work is so much more effort than cleaning the seat and handles of a bike. Unfortunately the only reasonable route to work requires going on a highway where pedestrians and bicycles are prohibited.

they could be snow plowing the bike lanes but they don’t feel like it

it’s under an hour long so I can watch more than one like this during my lunch break. It’s the long form content over an hour long that I have to avoid because it’s usually just vods which severely bore me.

I thought plants always increase the humidity?

iceraven works on Android?

yes and there are safe files to torrent like Linux ISOs, can test with those

ffmpeg can process audio, right?

I’ve been enjoying e-books off of Archive.org (not web.archive.org)

I think H.O.V. lanes are necessary, and the passenger limit should be such that traffic moves quickly in them They will require separate ramps from everyone else.
