  • Glad I'm not the only one who finds Gelderloos insufferable. I have to admit I've never finished one of his books because I just can't he's too arrogant.

  • Is this satire? Did you miss the whole thing where he kidnapped the president like a week ago or so?

  • I don't know somehow we're really bad at that and they always tell us it will cost 800 billion or something. I've a bit lost hope we can actually build things so focusing on micro mobility seems more viable but I would love better transit if they can get it done.

  • It's fucking annoying. CA is a great place to live in a lot of ways but the car culture is so out of control it's unbelievable.

  • CA dems sure love their EVs. So much they keep shoving money at them even though research shows we could make a greater impact with e-bike subsidies. Meanwhile they've quietly and without explanation eliminated those so they can put more money into EVs.

  • Yeah but what do they know?

  • This is a dangerous misunderstanding of statistics. Most murders go unsolved because the victims aren't considered important by society. The police barely bother to investigate. Go after the bigwigs and they will find you. Look at Mangione. And he was pretty good at covering his tracks compared to most murderers.

  • True but also fuck off.

  • It seems very unlikely she committed any felonies in this encounter but that may not stop them from filing charges anyway.

  • This area should not be rebuilt, unless it can be rebuilt with buildings that are much better protected from fire. This area is always going to be high fire risk and we will see far more extreme fire weather in the future than even the event that destroyed these neighborhoods.

  • Mexican land form makes dangerous terrorist attack on proud American munitions.

  • They will not just eat it they will go ballistic and fight each other over it within .5 seconds of realizing they can get it. They are vicious little animals.

  • Don't kink shame.

  • It's all typos all the way down. I was actually trying to type a totally different comment.

  • I suppose if the price is high enough maybe but typically congestion prices just reduces congestion, not eliminates it.

    The real silver bullet is just ban cars from densely populated areas. But people would riot so that won't happen.

  • Yup. And this is why all the people moving to Texas for cheap housing are getting conned.

  • Do we have historians on Lemmy?

  • Interesting that the college towns are right up there with the big cities (except NYC). Proves that transit can work in smaller towns and that it's possible without an astronomical budget too.
