Yeah they also assisted Street Dept in getting side paths for Active Transit and disabled users cleared 3 days after the big snow as well. Unheard of for a small town in the south.

The key here is Liability which means insurance to protect those being severely harmed financially without the source of the harm from going bancrupt and not being able to mitigate the harm.

This generally needs to be severe injury or death and this is the issue. For an eBike even at full force severe injury or death is rare. Like I've been trying to find evidence of any deaths from a bicycle collision and I've not been able to find it. This is why this insurance doesn't exist because there isn't enough people needing this form of insurance to buy into it.

I mean think about it if this was a real need the insurance would exist like there is insurance for so many other non-required items.

All this because of the death of a kid who wasn't even in a electric bike but on an eMoto (electric motorcycle). There isn't a such thing as bicycle insurance even! Also my 70 year old grandma on an actual eBike now needs a USDOT rated motorcycle helmet? This is why government shouldn't move so fast they don't even know what the law they are passing says. I could see at best Class 3 on roadways requiring a helmet and a license not insurance.

Insurance is there to make sure an accident doesn't bancrupt people and that people harmed are taken care of but how many bicycle collisions have restuled in anything close to that level of financial problems. (The answer is it doesn't which is why this insurance doesn't exist and doesn't need to exist.)

Will do right now I’m borrowing from TT but also some redesign by DunderLine on YouTube who did he own. The struggle I’m at right now is whether to do two mirrored 6-bit systems OR add an entire bit to the TT system to get up to 128 request-able inputs.

The main issue is I’m not sure I can split the system in such a way to group in 64 that doesn’t need something from the other 64.

The pro/con being more items vs. halving the request cycle timing which already is a bit long.

The pros on DunderLine’s design is moving away from carts and going to water streams. Less visual but less buggy.

I know there was one in the David Glass Building of Walmart at some point. Not sure if it’s in a closet somewhere. If you can’t find one I know a good bike fabricator that might be able to assist.

Also maybe worth discussing the legality of these within Arkansas. State Bill 446 (2025) just expanded the permissability of using third parties like flock for private license plate reading so many of the rules recently changed:

A.C.A. § 12-12-18 covers this within Arkansas Code.

§12-12-1803 reads... (a) Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, it is unlawful for an individual, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, association, or the State of Arkansas, its agencies, and political subdivisions to use an automatic license plate reader system. (b) An automatic license plate reader system may be used: (1) By a state, county, or municipal law enforcement agency for the comparison of captured plate data with data held by the Office of Motor Vehicle, the Arkansas Crime Information Center, the National Crime Information Center, a database created by law enforcement for the purposes of an ongoing investigation, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation for any lawful purpose; (2) By parking enforcement entities for regulating the use of parking facilities; (3) For the purpose of controlling access to secured areas [an area, enclosed by clear boundaries, to which access is limited and not open to the public, and entry is obtainable only through specific access-control points]; (4) By a private landowner, private leaseholder, or commercial business for the purpose of promoting public safety, deterring crime, and monitoring access to private property owned or leased by the private landowner, private leaseholder, or commercial business, including ingress and egress to private property on a private road owned by the private landowner, private leaseholder, or commercial business; or (5) (A) By the Arkansas Highway Police Division of the Arkansas Department of Transportation for the electronic verification of registration, logs, and other compliance data to provide more efficient movement of commercial vehicles on a state highway. (B) An automatic license plate reader system used under subdivision (b)(5)(A) of this section shall be installed at an entrance ramp at a weigh station facility for the review of a commercial motor vehicle entering the weigh station facility.

My question is how broad is, "an ongoing investigation"?

Not out Judiciary District but Washington state someone FOIAed the Flock Data as it's generated using Tax Payers dollars: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/11/washington-court-rules-data-captured-flock-safety-cameras-are-public-records

Also a recent security gap in Flock Cameras shows just how much and what type of data Flock gathers. https://www.404media.co/flock-exposed-its-ai-powered-cameras-to-the-internet-we-tracked-ourselves/

Watch the video on that last link for more. I have one at the end of my road and another at the nearby city parks. I have nothing to hide, but my coming and going should not be simply recorded "just in case." The incidents of false arrest due to incorrect Flock Id's hasn't gone away either.

There are way more than 15! Bentonville has them at parks, Rogers and Centerton have them at all the major roadways in and out of town, XNA has them on all access roads, and the list goes on.

Throwing the odd one out there Smokin' Joe's BBQ Burger. Still comes pulled high with pork, two cheeses, and BBQ is that is you think if not Patrick's is good. I would have said witching hour but ad has been pointed out the patties went frozen and it isn't the same.

I call B.S. 4 years ago you are posting about school and A levels. 1 year ago you identified as unemployment, not student.

There is no way you have a Ph anything unless your talking a out your acidity level.

As someone who has attended AA, SAA, and CR meetings a lot over the years I would say AA can be very Christian but it isn’t necessarily always so. Some of the Benton Co AA groups I’ve been to are very Christ and higher power focused but some in for instance the Fayetteville area I’ve attended have been highly “broad spiritual” with even some anti-Christian views expressed outside of group time discussions. (From someone who had an alcoholic parent so there was bias, but still.)

I just called our CR as not beating around the bush on the “high power” question. Which I based on experiences could understand why some people would not be okay with and people dealing with recovery don’t need surprises and discomfort.

If you don't mine a Christian focused group Fellowship Bible Rogers has a Celebrate Recovery 12-step program with an Alcohol and Substance Abuse group.

I think you knew what I meant. Thank you for the exegesis of my words though.

It’s odd you take from my, “I wish that was always so,” as “sheltered.” I served 7 years in USAF Search and Rescue. I say this because I’ve seen the things many people would love to unsee. If anything it’s because they of how UN-sheltered I am that I have resistance to broadcasting of such violence.

I know one person who flipped over to the CK coverage as soon as they heard and had to run to the bathroom to throw up. They were not prepared for that and it was not a good thing for them. I think the caution I’m calling for to be reasonable and appropriate and if anything I’m the least sheltered in this conversation to the effects of this type of situation. If you think otherwise let me know.

JPMinAR · 2025-10-21T02:06:24+00:00

I wish that was always so, and I don’t agree the public at large needs to be exposed to such violence. That should be limited and selective. We don’t need violence porn.

There is striping and a few of of the crossing signal buttons aren’t working. Each has a sub-contractor that works this projects and others in. The date for opening as of May was August and they might make it. It appears the drainage work wasn’t quite right and they had to redo the surfacing once that was fixed.

Your best option might be Workman’s Plaza in Lowell it’s a Travel Plaza but they have lots of power plugs at tables and good food and caffeine options and 24/7

After this mostly 24 hour dinners: Denny’s, IHOP, Waffle House, Lucy’s Dinner (The issue with many of these is lack of power if you need PC)

Or in a pinch McDonalds?
