[RoboSpunk] Well Fuck
  • A problem of his own creation in panel 2

  • Good times
  • Here's something nearly as old!

  • Millionaire homeowners sued the city of Charlottesville, Virginia, arguing a 10 square mile town whose new zoning plan to increase density had no plan to expand the roads
  • sigh

    I'm cool with walking, biking, or busses, or whatever. But if you are increasing the size of a city, and there is no easy way to funnel people from their homes to jobs in a timely fashion, your city will experience gridlock. The issue at hand is Charlottesville expanding- meaning a population increase to feed their financial center. So yes, they need to increase the ability to cross it. Be that via bus or car, to the new suburbs and other residential zones.

    I do so love my heavy v8 sports car, but I'm not so short sighted to slight the idea of public busses and bicycles - just that if we want them in cities then we need to build for them. Bus curbs and bike trails. My city builds for neither except symbolically, so yes, I notice the issues with traversing it on the individual level, when my personal commute is over 8 miles poorly timed and poorly lined Stroads. Areas with very wide lanes and clear sides but silly low artificial speed limits. Areas with narrower old streets and trees closing in on you, but are 40. Zero consideration for road dressing and all according to zoned speeds. Results in speeding and unsafe neighborhoods.

  • Eh it helps create thoroughfare. Our city features nothing but 2lane roads each way in/out of the downtown area, and the rest of the 120sqmi city is comprised of 1-2 lanes each way. Construction on any road dropping it a lane makes the next traffic light 6-8 blocks long.

    Maybe Charlottesville is different and already has a major thoroughfare, but not having at least one "superwide road" is murder on all the small side streets that are not built to handle the traffic flooding around a blocked 2lane. Without public transit to support the population, making the city bigger without widening a few key roads into important parts is begging to have your neighborhood roads obliterated by heavy traffic.

  • It really puts it in perspective
  • That is surprising, but ultimately good to hear, really.

  • It really puts it in perspective
  • Titanic superimposed over SOTS, not a rare or hard to find picture, but really drives home why we dont need a replica of the Titanic. Its just too small at this stage. I'm pretty sure there are private yachts the size of Titanic now.

  • brony
  • Reading Don't Toy with me, Miss Nagatoro, noticing how expressive the characters are. How refreshing over so many bland manga!

    Wait, why? What work has Nanashi done to be this good at eyes and hands? Moment of realization sets in.

  • Anyone else?
  • Me, tired of staring at medium rectangle all day, finally going home to turn on the big rectangle, and watch tiny rectangle.

    One gives cortisol, the other 2 give dopamine and serotonin, respectively.

  • It isn't fair
  • Ayo I see you one down voter, just know you outed yourself as the top image.

    But honestly bro same just accept it and shave. Join us in bald-hood and cap wearing. It's not so bad. (This is satire, I don't care if youre bald or not)

  • Judge sets bail at $5 million in connection with state charges
  • I said it elsewhere but "domestic terrorism" as a charge is federal, and can be pardoned.

    But lots of state level charges can carry a similar life sentence and be un-pardonable by presidents, current or future.

  • 2 bros chilling in a storage space because they're gay
  • Peter, explain why they value a storage room, but would prefer to use it for musicals? Are they wanting to use it as a space to practice stagecraft or a TV room for watching them?

  • Nexus Mods' new owners promise they won't monetise the site to death as users panic at the whiff of venture capital
  • I found a couple recommendation lists to "make the game look good" because I dont need all the fancy extras like body mods and weapons and grouped them together in load order, because I knew at some stage I could just package them nicely into a ZIP if I need to uninstall Skyrim for some reason. Glad to see I was ahead of the game

  • Nexus Mods' new owners promise they won't monetise the site to death as users panic at the whiff of venture capital
  • Currently downloading everything to MO2 and setting to not check for updates huehuehue

    People gonna see torrents for a "preset packages" of Skyrim mods

  • Midweek feels
  • Its only Tuesday but man I feel his pain. At least tomorrow is Wednesday, my dudes.

  • Checks out
  • Part of it, and I know it might be upsetting, is that "domestic terrorism" as a charge gets the feds involved. The president can pardon federal crimes but not state crimes. So if he gets a bunch of state crimes he cannot be pardoned by the president and has to serve the terms.

  • Like talking to a monkey!

    Anakin went over the edge because Palpers didn't like his spinach puffs.

    How are y'all GOLD?

    In every game. Nothing specific. Everyone higher than me is a sweat, everyone below is stupid.

    Leaving when Vault pops up

    This iteration has got some of the worst balanced maps I've played - and I've played Hydro, magma, Carrier, Sena Border, and Nuketown!
