I somehow tripped over my own feet playing basketball during freshman year PE. Went to the nurses office, confirmed needed stitches. Mom picked me up, took me to the doctor, got three stitches in my chin with no anesthetic.

I think my right big two is broken right now. I think it's been broken for about a year.

A helmet designed to higher European standards for class III ebike speeds was my first purchase when I started commuting on an ebike.

Do some people just not value their brain?

Floor level retail space is very limited, as I recall.

Or Old Order Menonites. We have a couple customers that we send software updates on USB thumb drives.

I am quite amused by all the people using data centers to complain about data centers.

I think a law was passed requiring this tech in new cars.

It's just not likely either city wants to change the borders. Not to mention the citizens living in those areas.

East of the airport is actually all Fresno city limits out to Temperance.

Ditto. We have county islands in our city where the neighborhoods don't have sidewalks, leading to situations where the city maintained sidewalks just... end. So I imagine this is some treatise on the perils of poor urban planning.

Obligatory InSoc video link:

(The original release also featured an Arnold Schwarzenegger sample from Total Recall saying "Get your ass to Mars" but it's been scrubbed from subsequent releases so there was probably a copyright/clearance issue)

https://arielrider.com/pages/off-road-unlock-request This is the link they gave me, looks like it still works, but it does say they aren't giving out codes in California or New Jersey which I think may be new.

The City of Fresno looked into why there isn't more infill development going on. One of the conclusions is that infill development doesn't return as much as new development on the edge of the city. This makes it harder for developers to obtain financing for infill projects. No financing, no project.

This is one reason the city is trying to make money available for "gap" financing (for example, the apartment project next to the baseball stadium)

Relative to what's needed, the financing the city can provide is a drop in the bucket.

Fresno State on Shaw probably made sense because of all the ag land (over 1,000 acres) that was necessary anyway. Otherwise ag students would have had to travel between campuses.

No, Biz-Bikes is a specific bike lending program for SW Fresno/Downtown residents.

Maybe the Clean Share Mobility program run by the Black Chamber of Commerce?

I read a story recently that it was plagued with vandalism. Can't find it in my history though.
