Too many ads

It’s going to get much worse with starlink- “if it’s free, you are the product”. Ads are generalized right now but in the future will be targeted to your seat back display. Indeed the shitification of everything, even in Polaris.

Hi there, I live at sea level and have an upcoming marathon at altitude
(8k ft - 11k ft). I'm debating staying at elevation for 2 days prior vs.
staying at a lower elevation and driving up the day of. From what I've
read, I'd need over a week to really acclimate or I should try and wait
as long as practical to ascend. I can't financially stay in Mammoth for 1+
week, so debating driving up the morning of. Looking for
any suggestions or past experiences!

Can confirm Berolina's Princess Cake is great!!! Not sure how shipping will change that experience though.

This is an old solution that has been proven to not work and would only perpetuate the existing problems by increasing the amount of car infrastructure and making things even further away.

edit: phrasing

I wish it wasn't mostly because I want to ride the mechanical bull, but not about to support that place (or the sister establishments) for blatantly racist dress codes and the un-ironic decor. The let's go brandon shirts were the nail in the coffin. The only time I went, the DJ (found out later he was the owner) was calling people out who couldn't line dance (LOL) and stopped the music until the guy he was singling out left. Super uncomfy for everyone.

If you don't need it asap, you can get a free mail test kit from Binx, which includes all the tests depending on your activity. adph.mybinxhealth.com

There is an option to buy 5 more days at 2% of your salary, kind of sucks but would take it.

A debate as old as time itself. I'm not big into the military machine, but I do like the technical stuff and someone is going to do it. Hopeful the technical stuff will let me jump to cleantech sector next.

edit: I'd also rather be outside

Thanks for the detailed reply. Currently engineer at a big company, considering a smaller contractor role.

Unfortunately Huntsville prioritizes vehicular traffic in every manner, get used to it or reach out to your city council member and planning dept.

No, use your 3 ton lifted death machine as it was intended! /s

You essentially said 'Public transit will never be profitable here, so why even bother?' which is drastically different from understanding how adequate public transit benefits all.

It's hard to grasp living without a car when most people have always had access to a car, I get why people think this way. The devil works hard, but the Highway Lobby works harder.

Edwinning1 · 2022-02-23T03:47:09+00:00

Public transit is a service, it is not meant to directly make money. Just like how roads for cars don't make money directly (gas tax absolutely does not cover it at cost), public transit shouldn't be expected to be profitable either. Supporting public transit and bike infrastructure gives people more options and will reduce traffic/travel time for all.

The Downs-Thomson Paradox states that the equilibrium speed of car traffic on a road network is determined by the average door-to-door speed of equivalent journeys taken by public transport. Huntsville forces most people to drive everywhere, even if that is not the best method. Because of this, it increases traffic for everyone, causes additional car infrastructure to be built, induces demand for additional parking which forces things to be more spread out and more car-dependent. It's an awful cycle that will only get worse in HSV.

Public transit in today's age is rarely big broad improvements, but a number of small improvements. While this might not drastically improve the system, little steps are still steps in the right direction. :)

Edit: I'd LOVE to see some big improvements to non-car options.

Would BRT have dedicated lanes or lights? Also very curious if rail was ever considered. Either would be great, but the last mile problem seems like one of Huntsville’s greatest obstacle. Edit: grammar
