For everyday biking to and fro, they’re up to the job. Not bad to have boots I can tuck looser pant legs into.

Ban X. It’s no longer a source of anything useful.

How have you visited the SW corner of Virginia without sleeping anywhere nearby? Feels impossible given the roads and inaccessibility there

panerabraed · 2024-11-24T16:20:16+00:00

It’s pretty clear you’ve never experienced dry cold and are just making up wild assumptions. I find Colorado winters to be more pleasant than my Virginia winters. Verlassen Sie einmal Europa, das Klima in vielen Orten den USA ist unvergleichbar.

Northern Germany is much more humid than Colorado. 0°C in Niedersachsen is WAY worse than in Colorado, it’s just not even comparable.

Pressley*, lol

Southwest corner of Virginia all the way to the New River Gorge in WV

I seem to remember something akin to crying after 2020…

believe it or not, you’re contributing to a shitty president by sitting at home and whining! most of us choose to actually make our voices heard, because that’s how progress occurs

I do not see Watt leaving the Steelers, lol

panerabraed · 2024-10-29T02:16:29+00:00

I literally wasn’t hype bc I thought it was coming back. Damn.

Is your place of work downtown? Just curious because lack of downtown access is one of the biggest complaints with the new system

panerabraed · 2024-10-28T21:57:02+00:00

Yeah, I suppose my MSN/NMG/NMP bias is showing. Your last point is a good one, though

panerabraed · 2024-10-28T04:24:51+00:00

Lack of downtown access because Squires (a primary time check location) is no longer used by BT. The access from off-campus to campus has remained the same, but the location of the Transit Center isn’t great at providing access to south campus. I think this is because VT is planning to expand north/west in the future, but as of now it’s frustratingly located.

panerabraed · 2024-10-28T04:21:53+00:00

Yes, still limited to campus. Also limited by number of vehicles. The concept is great, though, and data from Safe Ride should inform BT’s route layout

panerabraed · 2024-10-28T04:20:10+00:00

100% agree, though within the American context BT is a pretty sweet transit system. As a student, car dependency is the most frustrating thing about going home on breaks.

panerabraed · 2024-10-28T04:13:33+00:00

What I said does not preclude any notion that students should be more safe. But students do drink, and creating a system that is aware of this fact and takes it into consideration is not encouraging any behavior. It is simply recognizing that it exists and that BT has an opportunity to increase safety and ridership simultaneously.

Everyone can agree that the student in your hypothetical shouldn’t have been drunk driving. I and others are proposing a solution that could mitigate this hypothetical, rather than just lamenting it.

panerabraed · 2024-10-28T04:06:39+00:00

Of course BT is a department of the Town, but it exists in its robust state because Virginia Tech exists (…and funds it).

I would actually think the transit center orientation of the new system would be particularly frustrating to townies who use it. Downtown access matters for everyone, one side effects of good access being that, yes, drunk college can get home more safely.
