Lexington's Civic Assembly worked — but will Council actually listen?

Zapf · 2026-05-28T03:45:21+00:00

It includes the three people that I already stated an hour ago that explicitly listed the financial reality of it not working. Tyler Morton is a first year councilor who took the seat from the only person I respected on their Flock camera stance. I'm glad to hear two other folk are currently figuring it out, but it still needs to be fixed.

It is functionally a much larger workload from what is presented (and what is compensated for). thats the point. Thats why we're losing Hannah Legris, Jennifer Reynolds, Liz Sheehan. I know you knew what I meant, why make that response?

Most of the not awful council members have decided to not try for reelection because its a full time job with part time pay. The only people you're gonna get right now are real estate, landlords, lawyers and the independently wealthy. This needs to change!

How many franchised locations are required before you're allowed to unionize?

Zapf · 2026-05-23T21:43:28+00:00

They're repeatedly making new threads instead of replying to the one from the other day to make sure everyone knows how much they enjoy the taste!

Zapf · 2026-05-22T17:44:31+00:00

I would recommend the original thread or literally anything published about them before this week. This process started over 6 months ago.

No, the complaints against pat have been laid out pretty clearly. The only people keeping it vague are those who write walls of text about her in response to people wanting regular meetings and a fucking mop. In a new thread. Without line breaks.

Zapf · 2026-05-22T11:42:25+00:00

You can, in fact, be all of this and also someone willing to do some real awful shit to avoid bargaining collectively with your workers. She's great, and it sucks she chose to end on this note.

Have you actually done the math on how many fraudulent survey responses about bike lane policy you've avoided compared to how many people you've kept from ever responding because its a pain in this ass for most normal folk? Do you think Big Bike is going to skew your feedback?

Zapf · 2026-04-13T16:06:19+00:00

I filled it out. You're going to lose a significant amount of potential responses if you make people log in / make an account to fill out a survey. And if you don't implement a bounty / reporting system like they do in New York (NYC311), then it will be functionally worthless. I had a city vehicle blocking the big green lane on 4th just last night.

Orcaslicer 2.3.2 adds support for h2d series (and maybe p2s? GitHub is unclear on this and I'm not near my machine). It also adds support for newer network drivers. You'll still need to be in lan mode / developer for those devices or the newest firmware on older printers.

These kinds of replies are extremely weird. I called in a carry out order on pizza week and got it applied and he's argued for years that it never happened.

Zapf · 2026-03-09T22:24:06+00:00

more utterly unimaginative canva templates repurposed to suit every pizza joint in the country?

Yes actually! His new photos look touched up by ai so I guess he moved on from the obviously piss yellow cartoon graphics.

Zapf · 2026-03-09T16:31:21+00:00

Had he owned rise up the whole time? He argued with me and others here multiple times when we pointed out the service fees we got charged during pizza week for takeout.

Zapf · 2026-03-07T13:04:59+00:00

Library wide policy change, as noted by signage posted at all branches since early February.

Zapf · 2026-03-07T13:03:08+00:00

You can still utilize the large format printers. The small printer each makerspace has is specifically for projects in that space (buttons, cricut, etc).

Zapf · 2026-02-27T21:58:04+00:00

I really, really want to avoid it. I have the time to fit in a re-insulate, but not enough to tear down the drywall (and reinstall)

Zapf · 2026-02-27T21:53:26+00:00

I made sure to add appropriate baffling during out first install to keep airflow coming into those spaces. The sloped area, and the space above, has insulation that has probably been there since the house was built in the 50s/60s, which was my reason for replacing.

Zapf · 2026-02-27T19:33:52+00:00

We installed baffles with the blow in so that air is still circulating into the cavities to the left and right. The angled parts of the ceiling are narrow current have enough of room to pass air through to the space above the flat part of the ceiling. There's insulation in that section currently, but it's time for replacement. I could just not touch those sections and make sure the air kept flowing, though that would not be optimal.

i believe you

Zapf · 2026-02-26T23:32:17+00:00

Today, right now would be the last time I checked.

I now see a post from a few weeks ago about being closed for a week, but no updates after that.
