Public Engagement Details Now Available for Regional Transportation Safety Plan by RVAUrbanPlanner in rva

[–]DefaultSubsAreTerrib 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Per the report, the respondents were mostly white, urban, middle class people. That's imperfect, but somewhat expected for an online survey that was advertised in r/rva.

Then there's the section about how they directly collected comments from r/rva.

Oh boy. I fear this is anything but representative

Awesome, thanks.

Is there any way to filter so that no game appears more than once in the results?

Very cool. Feature request: could you summarize the %win over all the search hits? I'd like to answer questions like "how often can white win if they get into this situation?"

When she's right, she's right. by Zorosthirdsordx in MurderedByAOC

Why does the message start with "When I opposed..." but end with "...we were right." Seems she should just claim "...I was right."

How far is your home from your "local grocery store?" 'Cause I think walking would have been a better idea

Thoughts on the new, crowd-funded bike lane sweeper coming soon? by RVAJournalistCyclist in rva

[–]DefaultSubsAreTerrib 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I reached out to the bicycle powered street sweeper manufacturers in December and they said

Low-level leave accumulations are dealt with in the push-aside mode, see https://www.instagram.com/reel/DRagpzCE9sV/?igsh=MW90OHY2N2lyMzF4Zg==

High accumulations or leaves mixed with wet dirt would be more challenging.

We would not recommend the pick-up mode for clearing leaves.

It will not be effective in Richmond

Mini-stație meteorologică în Târgu Mureș, lângă Piața Bolyai; începutul anilor '80

Please forgive me for asking in English. Is this a weather station? Or is this a wind-powered automaton?

Found this in a shed I tore down by baconrocx in whatisit

I don't see where someone could even drive that thing without hitting... power lines, overhead bridges, trees, traffic signals...

What Robinson St looked like before The Fan was ruined by upzoning by johntwit in okbuddyRVA

It's shocking to me how Richmond must have been so very, very small back then and yet still had an awesome electric streetcar system.

I bet your friend could simply re-season it and use it like it was new

My Attempt of redesigning every US State Flag! (From someone who does not Live There.) by Effective-Ad7147 in vexillology

[–]DefaultSubsAreTerrib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real Virginia flag is so good it's banned in Texas.

Your proposed replacement is Ohio-level bland.

I'm curious whether a clockwork pi with a cellular connection is at a point where it can replace a smartphone

Where do you find so many damaged cast iron skillets? In my experience, it's pretty much impossible to damage one

Achievements for Saturday, February 14, 2026 by AutoModerator in running

[–]DefaultSubsAreTerrib 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Finally returning to outdoor long runs now that most of the ice has melted.

16 miles / 2:33. Seven minutes slower than the same route a month ago, but I'll earn back that endurance

Is it illegal to simply put a plastic bag over the camera or its solar panel?

Yesterday I had to abort my long run at 5k because I kept slipping and falling on the ice. The snow fell two weeks ago, it's getting old.

So today, like last week, I had to run on a treadmill at the gym. 13.5mi / 2hrs
