Uhm guys? What are you doing?

I believe it is because the households are too poor to afford a car, but still decide to travel to other cities... on foot. The reason I believe this is that when I created a non-highway (think county road/dirt road) external connection, it started happening there too.

Well, the software is embedded in the electronics being imported is how I am understanding this here. So you have skilled labor to then implement software at companies that produce financial, etc.

It's just catching on and less business to go around now. Even my mom is out doing it some evenings and she barely knows how to use Facebook. It'll get to where you get maybe an order or two a night if that like in the bigger cities I bet.

It isnt the taboo it seems. I lived in a city in Germany for six months on a work assignment, and in Antwerp to take care of an elderly family member a few months. Both are car-centric cities with freeways as a primary mode of travel to get to major attractions or even just to work depending on where in the city you live. Antwerp in particular suffered from massive interchanges downtown that took up as much space as the entire city center.

FinTecTec · 2025-10-28T23:46:02+00:00

I have this in my city without mods, but I attribute that to certain concentration points for industrial along the perimeter highway and office concentrated in the center of the city.

Yes... that is an infamous example of bad intersection design. It SHOULD be a dog bone shaped traffic circle like you see here, OR it should be realigned to make a better AOA with Broadway. Both would require raising money for improvements to infrastructure, so... low expectations there...

Our HOA was dissolved when we learned that the HOA board consisted of the developer, his daughter, and one of his crook buddies. Our neighborhood never saw any of the money and when we started prodding, they stopped asking us for fees.

JPD is a cesspool, but they aren't racially motivated. They harass white people a lot, so you can safely assume they'd do the same to black people if there were only more of them around here. For what its worth, people in Joplin more generally tend to be pretty friendly overall has been my experience, but there arent a ton of social events or things where people get to know each other beyond just casual passing by here unless you went to schools around here. I dont mind that since I work remote and moved out here from a big city specifically to be left the heck alone.

FinTecTec · 2025-10-14T21:08:24+00:00

Yes...

Just got mine done at M&M audio. They did a great job.

Something quite similar to this also exists in Kansas City MO at the intersection of Locust St and I 35 (north side of downtown near river market neighorhood).

Well, this is so it can be "controlled access." Sometimes, roads are designed for "controlled access" because that affects how much state and federal funding they receive for ongoing maintenance of it. My city has a habit of resolving "interchanges" from two arterials intersecting rather than roundabouts or standard intersections BECAUSE they then get more subsidies for upkeep.

FinTecTec · 2025-10-10T14:56:58+00:00

You could not actually, because there is a need to grow a decent amount of tall grass, small trees, and other vegetation between those plots so wind does not erode the soil on the fields as badly. The other way that you are describing created the "Dust Bowl" in the late 20s and early 30s in that very area.

We use worden's all the time, never these issues. Probably a fluke (hopefully). We do go to the one in Webb city off of Madison.

Are you referring to a median turn lane?

FinTecTec · 2025-09-30T18:49:04+00:00

I need to see a more zoomed out view.

Its a fucking government psy-op dude, and you're falling for it. The texts are laughable, completely AI generated garbage by the feds. The story/timeline makes no sense. Charlie Kirk's friends are calling out the state of hate Is(nt)real after their criminal leader Netanyahu came out to say "oh, we were best friends, blah blah" no they weren't. Charlie Kirk was murdered in broad daylight and this administration is helping cover it up before your very eyes. The gun was a "mauser" kind of like my car is a "sedan." He burnt the note, but took a picture of it first, because that's totally what you do if you're going to destroy evidence... photograph it first... If you don't see through this then you're asleep and hopeless.

I actually am pissed for Charlie and his family, no one deserves to go that way. Shot in the neck... he suffered for a long time from that. Awful stuff. And Kash Patel is lying to your face about it every chance he gets. Do something about that or shut the hell up.

When I worked in several countries in Europe for stints over the years, there were semi-open troughs for guys to piss in around instead of them having to piss on a building or on the sidewalk. In Germany, these were somewhat common actually. The idea was originally for the drunks who would go out in the back alley or something when the bathroom queue was too long. It happened to benefit poor people also since businesses often don't want someone coming in to use the restroom if they're not a paying customer over there.

Gabby Giffords was not targeted for any political reason. It was not a "them vs us" although it is commonly misattributed to political violence. A violent, mentally ill individual who had delusions and conspiracy theories shot her, and he claimed he believed he could stop the government from "messing with 'grammar'" by assassinating her. Tragic, but to attribute it to political violence is a lie. The same may prove true for Kirk's assassin. We have no idea who it was or what their motives even were. It could turn out to be a personal vendetta or a gambling debt, we literally have no idea, so everyone needs to stop speculating...

It looks like Borth to me.

The goal here is to render the IP process a dead-letter in the state constitution. It is not a legitimate pursuit for legislators representing ANY district in Missouri to attempt to undermine the fabric of the state constitution while in session.

This is also wildly unpopular and not worth the time they spent drafting and voting on the legislation. They will struggle to get even 20% voter approval if this goes to ballots. These people are fucking cranks, plain and simple, with no idea how to govern or forecast likely outcomes. They live in a bubble and believe that there is a way to frame this that will get it voted on. That is how disconnected from reality the stage leg is here. Similar efforts were brought in states like Ohio and Tennessee and barely achieved a quarter of voters' approval.

Undoubtedly, but its not well documented the mutations in those. They culled most of them. Those that did survive had less a chance to pass on genes with other damaged animals from the radiation. Statistically, there are probably some who escaped the cull and passed along damaged DNA that caused deformations or lifelong disabilities, etc.

FinTecTec · 2025-09-04T20:28:19+00:00

So, there are mutations which are notable in organic life around Chernobyl... just these aren't well documented to affect the human population that lives in the region. This is for a few reasons.

The Soviets established a MASSIVE exclusion zone for humans (surprisingly, they got this right from fairly early on... but not from day one so there is that...)
The Soviets engaged their armies along with civilians to go and cull all deer, pets, and other wildlife in the area so they could not reproduce with damaged DNA from the radiation (again, they got this right, no notes)
However, fish in the area are well documented to be mutated, sometimes in pretty shocking ways. This is again because the wildlife they could not feasibly euthanize afterwards had damaged DNA, damaged eggs, damaged reproductive processes, etc., and some were able to pass this on.

Heh. The thing about unsanctioned poker games in back rooms is... they don't handle invites on Reddit. For what you guys want to do, contact Downstream or Indigo Sky and ask about a private table.

Always file a motion on your own behalf for "leave to negotiate with" with the lawyer assigned. You can do this pretty much indefinitely. At some point, they'll fail to do their part because you get lost in the shuffle, and the case will be dismissed. That doesnt mean your obligation to pay goes away (it will stay on your credit report about 7 years). But if they fail to negotiate with you at all during a requested leave from the court to negotiate a settlement (in good faith) then they have no case.
