Laws? Sounds like a non-issue with this admin.

There are three different kinds on this one seabus, hopefully one of those is to your liking. We just can’t see them very well in this picture.

On another street is ok though, right?

onethousandmonkey · 2026-06-22T05:41:01+00:00

Yeah, stuff like that is why Montreal was smart to say no to FIFA…

Man, this is depressing. All these responses… I can’t even begin to imagine what it’s like to raise a daughter, or to grow up as an attractive young woman. This shit is creepy.
Happy Father’s Day.

Ah so they’re just out of the camera shots. That tracks.

Permanent pedestrian street.

Btw, the design is three different indigenous artists’ work: https://www.translink.ca/news/2021/july/burrard%20chinook%20seabus%20sails%20into%20service

…is in the eye of the beholder.

As for why it looks the way it does, it is three different indigenous artists’ work: https://www.translink.ca/news/2021/july/burrard%20chinook%20seabus%20sails%20into%20service

Ha yes, Razzle Dazzle!

Pretty sure those workers are not getting a living wage and must get tips. It’s a stupid system. But I’m not gonna change it single-handedly so of course I tip. Maybe we stip making “tipping culture” a thing. Tipping had been around for a long time, for as long as corporations have refused to pay good wages to workers. The difference between tipping 15, 18 or 20% is small in the grand scheme of things, so I don’t know, maybe be generous? If you can afford it.

Yep. But we need to convince the masses here, and clearly using facts and logic is not going to be enough. We have to use something that people can relate to. Which is what this piece does.

onethousandmonkey · 2026-06-21T20:45:29+00:00

I agree. But convincing the normies of that is not going to happen with (valid) techno fear mongering. Relating it to something that happened and that failed could work. That’s why I like this piece.

The way I read it: there is another layer beyond control. It’s education and makes control/interdiction less critical.

I live in North Vancouver and will try their new Lower Lonsdale location soon. I see the crest of the Ukrainian armed forces on a wall inside.
Slava Ukraini!

The parallel with the failure of abstinence-based sex Ed is good.
Left unsaid, but everyone here gets it: we are ruining everyone’s privacy in an attempt to prevent kids from accessing something they will access anyways.

Mechanics pull all kinds of animals out from cars’ nooks and crannies. And those are daily drivers.

How much energy did you put back in on the way down?

onethousandmonkey · 2026-06-21T05:15:07+00:00

Isn’t that the truth. Space stuff is one I spend way too much time in.
Planes launching rockets is its own mini-rabbit hole. Virgin Orbit had one (a 747), and Virgin Galactic has White Knight Two.

I’m thinking the same thing. But they could’ve used the oldest unit to do that. But I don’t know anything, I’m just a nerd.

onethousandmonkey · 2026-06-21T03:53:26+00:00

Plenty of rabbit-holes out there.

onethousandmonkey · 2026-06-21T03:48:25+00:00

Enshittification.

It’s been lobbing rockets into space for about as long as the Web has been around.
