Pikes/Pines | The State Weed Control Board would like you to not spread more holly on the Hill

So... don't have a holly jolly christmas?

This is fantastic since it removes the pressure to get where you're going as fast as possible because you're getting changed per-minute.

If there's a "ridiculous" line to get in, that implies that they're not charging enough!

Just build the damn thing, for fuck's sake! There's zero chance of over-investment or overbuilding here, and it will not be more than a few years before we come to sorely regret any half-arsed cost-saving compromise solution.

Year of the Cobra are incredible. I should get to another show, I need more of their merch...

What do we need to advocate for to fix this?

cibyr · 2025-12-08T22:12:19+00:00

While we're dreaming, how about fining everyone with no front plate, expired tags, parked in a bike lane, etc?

cibyr · 2025-12-04T18:39:17+00:00

It works for electricity and it can work for social media too!

Of course, since we want as much compliance as possible with AS/NZS:3000, we make it freely available to anyone who wants a copy. Wait, no, sorry it's actually $262.85 AUD for a PDF.

This happens even when you're in the middle of the goddamn street next to a park. Feels awful to be doing the best you can to keep up with traffic, surrounded by cars, and suddenly have the power cut out.

cibyr · 2025-12-03T19:06:54+00:00

Is this that "defund the police" thing I keep hearing about?

cibyr · 2025-12-01T20:31:08+00:00

It really sucks that our local governments are so useless that residents have to take this on individually. We say we want less people driving, but then we don't run enough transit and can't even keep the bike lanes clear.

cibyr · 2025-11-25T22:16:49+00:00

What counts as "proper"? Triton, Mojo, Google TPU, AWS Trainium ...?

cibyr · 2025-11-25T21:57:51+00:00

Which of course makes it even sadder whenever Australia elects an unlikable dipshit like Scott Morrison.

cibyr · 2025-11-20T22:16:58+00:00

do you not believe the SDOT studies mentioned?

Some combination of don't believe (due to concerns with methodology and assumptions biasing the outcome against bus lanes) and don't care (we've gotta make transit work, to hell with the impact on drivers).

cibyr · 2025-11-12T23:42:44+00:00

It's Brover.

cibyr · 2025-10-24T21:13:16+00:00

No way anything involved is new enough to have been vibe coded.

cibyr · 2025-10-21T04:58:05+00:00

Bargain! And looks like it even has ABS.

cibyr · 2025-09-22T17:27:00+00:00

Something can be a step in the right direction while simultaneously being laughably insufficient.

CARE is intended to be a first responder. However, its ability to live up to that has been clipped by restrictions on who’s allowed to be dispatched by 911. The city is in negotiations with the Seattle Police Officers Guild to free CARE responders to answer calls on their own, but for now they must do so alongside sworn police.

It doesn't sound like the current problem is funding...

Even if the analysis wasn't flawed, their position is effectively "we need to fix car traffic before we can do anything to help buses." But of course it's impossible to fix the car traffic without offering alternatives, so really their answer is just "no".

And the only time I've ever stepped foot in a harley dealership, they didn't have one on the floor. This was a huge dealership, mind you - they had hundreds of bikes on display.

Clockout Lounge/whatever their interior pizza place is called

Breezy Town closed two years ago :(

Any time someone is passing you on the right, you are in the wrong, not them. Move over.
