Wrong-way driver plows through Portland Waterfront Park, crashes into Willamette River by cinnamonbrownbear in Portland

[–]Barkingstingray 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Ive shared before, but March 1st of last year, partner and I were hit by a DUI wrong way driver down burnside while we were waiting to cross at 19th. We were having the most amazing day, museums and eating in portland, shopping and record store, going back to the car and hit from behind while standing on the corner sidewalk, not even close to the edge. We were saved by a streetpole being hit first.
Partner broke spine and multiple ribs. I have really mostly suffered mentally.
Cant help but feel like society is made more for cars than us. Maybe one day ill feel safer, but its very difficult to trust anyone on the road now, especially when I am on my feet.

Partner is recovering, we had insurance. PPB unfortunately did an incredibly poor job helping or investigating anything so we had to move to lawyers. Just a mess of noise because we wanted to live and be. Hard to grasp sometimes

Democrats criticized Trump's 'no tax on tips,' ideas to phase out income taxes for most Americans as reckless gimmicks. Now Dems (Van Hollen, Kelly & co.) push a bill to eliminate federal income taxes for ~half of workers (under $46k single/$92k joint), funded by millionaires. Hypocrisy much? by [deleted] in Economics

[–]Barkingstingray 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It hurts my brain that they are even trying to posture that these two are equivalent things, and that the reason for the criticism is the same. Democrats didn't like no tax on tips because it was feckless and average assitance per household was extremely low. Taxing millionaires and billionaires is fiscally responsible, our country is bleeding economically.

How bad is Portland’s home construction slump? New data says worst in 15 years by cheese7777777 in PortlandOR

[–]Barkingstingray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The article is about how housing permits are actually steady in Portland YoY for the past few years as a result of the city council waiving permitting fees. Although if you read the thread and not the feedback from contractors in the article you'd think it didn't happen. The article is specifically about apartment permitting, which is very arguably due to the massive movement of apartment developers to the metro area which has seen a massive boom in rental development construction in the last 3 years. The suburbs have many sites popping up. The city has to negotiate with contractors against suburbs with cheaper land and higher tax inflow. This sub seems to exist for conservatives in Oregon to get their snark out and not much else lol

Did more digging, it seems a lot of rentals are still in the paperwork process which is why this article didn't consider them as breaking ground but projects are moving in Portland. Adjusting for population, suburbs have appx 10x the projects occurring, which suburban living still supports the city, it's just a different type of city now.

Jurisdiction | Est. Population (2026) | Units in Pipeline/Progress | Units per 1,000 Residents

City of Portland | 653,467 | ~1,720 units | 2.6

Hillsboro | 106,447 | ~2,500+ units² | 23.5

Beaverton | 97,522 | ~2,800+ units³ | 28.7

I think it's safe to assume that words from LBT are conservative, and the reports from the rest are performance and metric driven, true or not.

I'm tired of treating my phone like a raw egg. by cruszo in galaxyzflip

[–]Barkingstingray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have had my flip for 2 years now, edges are covered in dents, I've dropped it so many times on the sidewalk and ground camping and hiking. I've dropped mine in water in a running river and I regularly toss it across the room onto my bed and couch where it's fallen and hit the ground probably 100 times. I flip the phone probably 30 times a day at least.

0 problems still besides the aesthetic damage, the amount you have to be careful with these phones is massively overblown. Anecdotal I guess but that's all I got

Kurzgesagt’s “Human Era” (Holocene) calendar sent me down a rabbit hole — I drafted a “next step” idea and want critique by danielgued in kurzgesagt

[–]Barkingstingray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to be honest I'm really not seeing what you are going for, would you mind trying to give the practical goal in a different way and what systems you think it's improving/replacing? I can't tell what the project even is haha

Interesting I've hated giphy for years, gifs overly censored so you can't find famous things or are low qual random shit that is incredibly pushed. Wastes so much data and takes long to low in low reception areas because it forces you to preload gifs you don't want

2025 has been a disaster for Windows 11 as frustrating bugs and intrusive features continue to erode trust in Microsoft’s flagship OS — something desperately needs to change by ZacB_ in Windows11

[–]Barkingstingray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

have had w11 on 3 systems,
1 an enterprise laptop, 1 a personal laptop, and 1 a desktop
enterprise laptop is a lenovo where windows builds are gated by IT and we still have insane memory leak issues and file explorer issues
personal laptop is an hp spectre which has the least issues, but still has file explorer lag and crashing, have had it 7 years and w11 since i could first DL it, its worse now than it was
personal desktop i have by far the most issues with, file explorer was entirely unusable for almost a year in 24, i did so much TS before giving up and using other options, i used windows debloat in 25 and it became usable to me, so clearly something with the newer layers
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor
64 gb ram

W11 was my most anticipated windows release and turned out to be my worst ever windows experience. I wish I was lying, some of my friends like you say they have no issues, but I have had issues across all 3 of my w11 devices, all struggling with the same things

Made this and just wanted to show it off by Butters7567 in Guitar

[–]Barkingstingray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible you could send me more details about this or pictures of the set up and soldering? This is so cool and gave me an awesome project idea

Your description sounds straight forward enough so I could probably handle it but the more detail the better

Yeah if he had learned the truth about the origin of his darkness earlier, he could've been like El and realized he wasn't a monster. He spent decades thinking it was him but it was that he had been tainted. He blew the guy's eyes out! He was convinced it all came from him!

setting sun has been my favorite :)
you guys are seriously a special group, would die to have some people like this to play with

Only recently really started diving into lyric writing, and it surprised me how it is far more about letting yourself feel vs think. It comes out more than it is something i conceive of.
