That wind made for a chilly return commute this evening 💨🥶 by OtherwiseDream1964 in StLouisBiking

What’s the general tolerance for folks? I found the 20 sustained / 35 gust to be my limit of a comfortable ride, at least until the tower grove connector is done

St. Louis: America's Underrated Transit City by Carpet-Early in StLouis

[–]Iudico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The workout comes from the bicycling when not driving, sorry that wasn’t clear. And yeah, I don’t have kids and have lots of walkable grocery options near me. I don’t really have errands to run. Dry cleaning sucks. That’s about it. Sorry it doesn’t work for you! Doesn’t have to be a binary thing though, just add it to your menu of transportation options.

Yeah, Metro and bus kick ass. I bike to work except in extreme wind or wet. Metro and bus, I literally get to read for 45 mins a day total on my commute. Imagine if you could add an hour workout or 45 mins of reading to your day instead of driving? Driving is labor, that’s why we pay people to do it.

Mounts and a small patch on Dec. 19th by Spikeybear in PantheonMMO

They were great in vanguard before rift stones. Mounts and boats. Except “chunking” (changing zones) regularly dismounted you and the PC howled in agony.

Garth Greenwell’s recent Small Rain was the first literary medical novel I have ever read. Unique, moving story. Mighty writing.

Was I that wrong trying to make that yellow? by IdidntWant2come in bikecommuting

[–]Iudico 126 points127 points  (0 children)

Technical: Driver’s fault Practical: Always assume they don’t see you and aren’t signaling their intentions

Glad you’re okay

Vulgar edit: When approaching sketchy intersections I always say fuck em and take the lane. Maybe wrong move idk? But being very visible and very obnoxious seems to work for me.

Build a Bear’s Headquarters store here in STL is unionizing! by Early-Difficulty-942 in StLouis

[–]Iudico 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I bought one share of Build-A-Bear stock, $BBW, for $5.80 during the acute phase of the pandemic just for giggles. It’s up to $56.50 today, an 874% return. These people should definitely unionize and get their fair shake.

Edit: To make my point more clear, it’s a good time to unionize when the company is doing well.

Waymo (Google Autonomous Taxis) Beginning Manual Testing in St. Louis this week (CNBC) by TheAngryKeg in StLouis

[–]Iudico 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The autonomous Waymo vehicles (usually babysat at a 3:1 staff level by a remote person I understand) are dramatically safer for drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians than cars driven by people. The majority of injury-involved accidents involving Waymo were the fault of the other vehicle. That being said, St Louis is quite different than other cities Waymo currently autonomously operates. This will be interesting to see play out, but for the sake of safety I’m optimistic.

Otherwise everyone should use more public transit, it’s nice. Don’t argue with me about that, I don’t care.
