And it’s totally a coincidence that his opinions line up perfectly with the people who regularly bribe him.

I’m talking about running stop signs, gunning it at yellow lights, not using turn signals, using turn signals but not turning, swerving into bike lanes and flinging open their doors without looking.

Infrastructure like protected bike lanes and robust public transit so fewer people feel the need to drive are great, but bad driving is bad driving.

Ocean liners are all but extinct. They’ve been supplanted by cruise ships which are utterly horrific for the environment.

I was so excited to finally live in a city where I could actually ride a bike to work most of the year until I actually tried it.

Drivers are assholes, have no awareness of their surroundings, the rules of the road and they give zero shits.

Nope nope nope. I’ll walk to the train

At the time, they gave better results and the clean and simple design got right to it without all of the BANNER! BANNER! HONK!HONK! of the competitors.

They had ads, but they were just text links that said they were ads and weren’t playing games with rankings based on who bribed them.

Yes. I have had many dreams where I’m actively reading something, I’m texting somebody, there’s a weird newspaper headline, the sign was wrong and gave me bad directions, etc.and I very clearly remember reading literal text and writing too.

I don’t know where that “you can’t read in dreams” thing came from (The Simpsons?) but it’s bullshit.

I think it still has potential but it needs more time to grow

There were lots of interesting online communities with great information and conversations before Reddit but they mostly died out as people moved on to other platforms. It’s a tale as old as time.

Lemmy’s just a platform and communities take a while to grow and there’s no guarantee they even will

I agree. I loved both, but I think B5 hit harder and is more relevant.

The effects were what they were. B5 had like half of DS9’s budget. DS9 still used mostly practical effects and models until season 6 which hold up better too, especially vs. early TV CGI.

I’ve had 2 Chevys 1 Ford & 2 Hondas. I had multiple breakdowns and expensive mechanical issues with Chevy & Ford.

The only thing I ever paid to repair on either Honda was a windshield because a rock hit it.

I didn’t understand your comment at first because I thought the cartoons were both women. (I guess the one on the right had a bit of facial hair and masculine features.)

Switching it to two guys wouldn’t make a difference but I can see how male-left, female-right might look worse. But it really shouldn’t.

It’s a short cartoon. I read it as a playful, consenting couple having fun with each other. I don’t think it’s one partner luring the other in on false pretenses of an emergency and forcing them to perform oral sex. The gender arrangement shouldn’t affect that.
