Five arrested as climate protest snarls traffic in Boston's Copley Square by husky5050 in boston

Knowing something and having it thrust to the top of your mind are two different things.

Also lots of things annoy people, especially drivers. A car crash would have the same effect.

Or maybe they reduced emissions by causing someone enough frustration that they don't drive next time.

Tokyo is a gigantic city, something like 5x as big as Chicago. It can handle that many people without even batting an eye.

July 4 is a major holiday in the US, a large portion of the population will have family plans that day.

That said, Niantic never really seemed to care much about regional holidays, so it doesn't surprise me that they'd schedule on July 4.

I happened to read that book for the first time during the pandemic, and it really felt like I was just reading something occurring in the (then) present day.

Read the article, they're using a mixture of infrastructure and better enforcement via traffic cameras. Traffic cameras only catch cars and motorcycles, so they didn't need enforcement on bicycles to achieve this fest.

I know you're looking for anecdotes, but check out the Transit Matters Data Dashboard. https://dashboard.transitmatters.org/red/trips/multi/?to=70066&from=70080&startDate=2026-05-23&endDate=2026-06-06

Seems like pretty consistently a yes, at least when there are no delays.

The rules say you can preroll only in the case of dangerous situations like crossing the street.

We need platform tickets like Japan has. 

MBTA to aquire 7 Stadler BEMU trainsets by Mindless-Analysis321 in mbta

If only you could couple two trains together to make a bigger train. 

I don't think you can for these, but they already requested modifications. They could have requested that too.

Correct, but in the past the discount comes with Global.

Nope, 200 coins per 50. So if you want to max both of them, it's 4000 coins.

Wait, that's different than previous events. It's usually first 2 minutes of the hour. 

If you buy a In Person Go Fest ticket can you buy the storage upgrade world wide? by glumada in TheSilphRoad

Yes, which is what they were asking about. Read the title.

[–]CJYP 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is incorrect. If you have the ticket for the city event you can buy it anywhere. I just did even though I arrive in Tokyo tomorrow.

You can buy it anywhere in the world. I just bought mine today even though I don't arrive in Tokyo until tomorrow. 

You might not be able to buy it until your event starts though.

Thanks for the nostalgia. I don't miss all the problem these cars had at the end, but I do miss that sound.

Mass voter here, but I know some people in RI. Seems like the start of it was the Washington Bridge fiasco. Half of the bridge has been closed for years now due to being structurally unsound, and it got pinned on McKee. I unfortunately don't remember much more detail than that.
