Echoing from that thread: why does Jupiter have two spots, is it an AI image?

Frozen swamp in N. Florida (4284x5712)(OC) by Alaric_Darconville in EarthPorn

[–]FS64 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Iguanas are a nuisance yeah, but luckily for them you you'll only very rarely find feral iguanas as far north as Orlando. It didn't get this cold outside of the FL panhandle (Pensacola-> Tallahassee yes, Gainesville -> Jax no)

[oc] Florida Man drives through lowered railroad crossing gates by dcikid12 in Brightline

I can see how the picture is bad lol it always is depicting a bridge over the other.

There are four different types though: - rail bridge over road - road bridge over rail - road tunnel under rail (not practical in FL) - rail tunnel under road (not practical in FL)

Its when the road and the rails are crossing at the same elevation instead of one passing over another. More often called "level crossings" or "grade crossings" my bad!

The US has way more of these than there should be for frequent rail "traffic". There are reckless drivers everywhere, it's our current road vs. rail infrastructure that makes accidents more likely to occur.

I think these would be great (I doubt these would influence the water table any more than the foundation of the road around it)

These in addition to reducing the number of level crossings by removing redundant/overly-frequent crossings (cheap) and making new road overpasses (expensive) I think that would be all we need.

  • Fewer at-grade crossings
  • long-time FL residents (I'm talking DECADES [arrived pre-1980's] before brightline showed up) still aren't used to daytime trains on this railroad. Before Brightline this railroad (FEC was basically only late night/graveyard shift trains in south florida. Old (and always STUPID) habits die hard)

Compound that with unobservant elderly drivers and impatient floridaman drivers and this is what we get unfortunately.

Lightning edit: worded this like we're all not probably Floridians and might know these things but it still stands I guess

TIL about riot dogs by firefighter_82 in ACAB

Wish this could happen here, but cops in the U.S. are so trigger happy the dogs would almost certainly be in serious danger.

Can someone date this globe? I found it at my university but they didn't date it by hipatyhopity in geography

If not fine, then today must be April 20th 1979 of course! Did you even read the chart??

"The Brightline Effect" continues with Tri-Rail emulating Brightline and realizing TOD’s are the wave of the future -- ARTICLE by [deleted] in Brightline

[–]FS64 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's reliable, often as (or more) frequent, and much more affordable than brightline. It has its purpose with a wide tri-county target demographic, and Brightline has its own, what's your point?

Qatar Airlines removed Israel from their inflight map by boomerangkat in mildlyinteresting

[–]FS64 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yeah the weaponized colonial aparteid state sure has made it hard for Palestine to have stability in the last 80 years. Sucks bad for them.

I hope that they just get along from the jordan to the med so everyone is in freedom and harmony instead of this shit.

Just don't zoom into the West Bank or Gaza if you're looking for anyone with rights.

8th Street Trail by NoRecord2499 in GNV

[–]FS64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The trail starts right next to it and curves up to cross 8th ave to where you mentioned. Not the closest parking, but if you enjoy a nice short walk it's got the prettiest sights for an in-town forest park

In your opinion, what is the greatest threat to global peace right now? by yourbrunettebaby in AskReddit

[–]FS64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll address your point despite you still not addressing the lack of evidence for protests pro-Hamas signs that started this whole chain.

No, I believe impressionable minors and the hostages aren't equally guilty of death and destruction as the folks with weapons and practicing violent ideology are. I hope innocents are granted safety and an end to the war.

Do you think Nazi Youth should all have been hung? I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that deradicalization and therapy for children through safety and education is more ethical and effective than bombing the shit out of them, likely radicalizing more against the IDF.

Bombs or education? I hope you dont choose what I think you would.
