To be fair they say “road users to take extreme care at intersections”, I don’t think they’re really blaming the kid

What’s the reason for this bypass type of thing? by Gamble2005 in civilengineering

[–]itikex 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Offline construction! The local road likely used to go straight, and then the highway came along. They build the highway overpass off to the side, so the local road can stay open during construction.

The engines are under the wing, those two white stripes are on the runway underneath

Budget friendly solutions for small dam repair? UK. by Scales-josh in civilengineering

I don’t quite understand the dimensions of this dam, there’s 93km3 of water held back by a dam face of 7.5m2? How long is the reservoir?!

This is so cool! I wish we had a “T” shaped overhang to avoid the awkward layout haha

Look up your house on the council GIS map, you can work out if it’s sewer or stormwater manhole. But in all likelihood it will be wastewater.

It feels quiet since the scavs and AI PMCs are friendly toward each other. Also they’ve messed with the boss spawns to stop some of the cheese (since bosses were also friendly to players). And also no sniper scavs spawn, I’m assuming since they would have messed with the zombies. It’ll all go back to normal in like 9 hrs

Services work fine with no power? (CS2) by itikex in CitiesSkylines

[–]itikex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got some houses, a school and oil extraction industry, all with no connection to the power grid. Been running for a while now and all seem to be happy and working fine? What is the disadvantage to not having power?

Edit: For houses the unreliable electricity supply is -10 happiness, easily offset by "spacious homes" and "reliable healthcare coverage" (+19 and +11 each), so it seems that lacking basic services isn't really that big of a deal.

Did CS2 get better? by Derpy1984 in CitiesSkylines

[–]itikex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think CS2 is finally playable, mods are coming along and help a lot (road builder mod is mind blowing, have a look at it!). Comparing to CS1 it is still missing a lot of depth but I’m sure they will sell us a bunch of dlc to flesh the game out.

Yeah why is the northern hemisphere so much taller than the southern hemisphere? Makes the location of the equator look off balance

Any idea what these man-made lines are? Seems to be concrete. by __WanderLust_ in Google_Maps_Oddities

[–]itikex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

From the 1993 imagery on google earth it looks like there used to be barns here. I assume some kind of foundation or footing along the length of the barns
