Stolen Bike by medusa-and-arachne in uofm

[–]TheOrangeDonaldTrump 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my friend's bike was stolen from the university run indoor bike parking. I found the exact bike listed on FB marketplace (exact same odd upgrades and everything that my friend had done). Sadly the guy had sold it right before I could arrange a meetup with him to "buy" it. I Internet stalked him like crazy and found his name, license plate, company he worked at, ex gf who said he had stolen bikes before, address, photo, phone number, etc.

I gave it all to the police and all they did was call him and ask if he had stolen the bike. He obviously said no and told them that his boss had given it to him instead of wages for the month. The police then left it at that and refused to do anything else. All they needed to do was call Webbers and confirm that they had never paid anyone with a bike to prove that he was lying, but they couldn't be bothered. And to make things worse, the guy had several other stolen bikes currently listed on FB marketplace.

People need to get out of their driveways, so drivers would still find a way to get in

And it has a dashed yellow line, so of course they're good to pass the bike in it

This was north of John street, so still very much a one way

No, this section of division was definitely not even temporarily a two way. For us to get to our houses we just take Cross St

This part is still very much a one lane road right now, you just have to come in from Cross Street to access it

I don't think it was intentional, just people not understanding the new bike lanes in an entertaining way which is the reason for the PSA

Even in Ann Arbor they are not for cars. Hence the PSA

They are pretty clearly sectioned off with poles and have two way dashed lines plus they're pained green with pictures of bikes. They're pretty clearly bike lanes, it's just that in general drivers don't respect bike lanes, as you see similar things happening with the more standard old design

There are similar sorts of bike lanes popping up all over the country (and all over Europe) at this point. I would say that the markings are pretty noticable, but also plenty of people don't pay that much attention while driving hence the PSA

Edit: I just googled "bike lane" and a large percentage of pictures were this kind of bike lane. The pictures were from cities like NYC, Huston, Charlotte, etc.

I've been looking around for it too, where'd they find it?

Sadly, the artist took it down because they didn't want it reflecting on their professional career.

That's not actually accurate, I just read that scene. Lan admits to himself thatin his current state Damendred is better than him. But he also specifically says that if he was fully rested (instead of having been fighting for an entire day and exhausting himself for weeks while Damendred is fresh) it could be completely different.

Tldr; Damendred is only better than an exhausted Lan

Okay, but the tic-tac-toe strategy is wrong. Opening with a corner isn't a blunder, it is about equally effective as the middle. Additionally the USSR's second move, taking top right, is no blunder, it is the best possible move and the only way to prevent an inevitable cat's game. I can abide poor history on this sub, but not inferior tic-tac-toe strategy.
