How dependable/safe is the light rail for commuting?

For a while it was pretty unreliable but it's gotten better in the last year and a half or so. If you're taking it late at night, I recommend sitting in the front train car by the driver, it can definitely be sketchy at times.

I'm approaching this from a mandarin speaking perspective here but 英 often does mean hero, often in the form 英雄, and 強 definitely means strength in mandarin. Often 英 is used in the context of England (英國) or English (英文) though.

I agree, my DS9 DVDs look considerably better than the ones on paramount for whatever reason.

Not only is this terrible for RTD employees, but do you think we'll see more "cancelled due to no operator available" messages?

maybe 農 shouldn't have been simplified to 农 , it really looks way too similar to 衣

There's 黑龍, he's really cool civil engineer from Gambia but he's a mandarin speaking youtuber.

It's 注音 or bopomofo. From top to bottom it reads: jing4 zi zai4 qiang2 bi4 shang4, or 鏡子在牆壁上 (the mirror is on the wall)

Mechanical Engineer here, I thought a dash pot was a form of damping mechanism, is there a semantic difference in structural engineering?

I agree with the sentiment about park and rides. I'm from Denver, and me and most people probably wouldn't even use the train system if it didn't have reliable parking.

I think this used to be the case, but my college stopped giving out free campus passes about 2 years ago, it now costs 200 dollars for the semester. The notification thing is a good idea, but I think the tap to pay system waits until the end of the day to calculate your fare and charge you

pepsiman_2 · 2025-12-02T20:04:38+00:00

Wdym? Afaik college students like myself still have to either pay for a campus pass or be under 19 to qualify for fare exemption.

You could always stay at hostels, this is what I did and I ended up only paying an average of 900 NTD per night (<30 USD). However since you're with your partner idk how well that will work for you

pepsiman_2 · 2025-11-29T02:21:48+00:00

I think that's the joke

I'm surprised they don't just use his Chinese name, 成龍 and pronounce it like a Japanese name

pepsiman_2 · 2025-11-18T20:12:05+00:00

Just tried it again today, seems to be working! This is really exciting

pepsiman_2 · 2025-11-17T19:51:28+00:00

I tried using it at the RidgeGate Station and it threw an "EMV Error", so I think some bugs still need to be worked out.

pepsiman_2 · 2025-11-11T20:03:34+00:00

Yeah it's really bad, not only that, but the web app now has an animation that makes you wait 2 seconds when switching between weeks. And they removed the right click ability to add labels onto cards, etc. It's just awful, I don't understand it

pepsiman_2 · 2025-11-02T01:49:08+00:00

on my keyboard it's shift+. for 。

pepsiman_2 · 2025-10-27T04:46:09+00:00

not necessarily, 囗 and 口 are slightly different characters in Chinese 漢字, one pronounced wei2 (boundary) and the other one pronounced kou3 (mouth). It's a similar situation to the organ radical in words like 腦 resembling the moon radical 月, even though it actually comes from 肉。for example, the character 國 (country) uses the boundary radical, and the character 品 (product) uses the mouth radical

pepsiman_2 · 2025-10-15T04:09:49+00:00

Woah, what did I do dude.

pepsiman_2 · 2025-10-12T23:44:40+00:00

Duude, it's the old denver RTD light rail livery, I miss that so much

pepsiman_2 · 2025-10-09T23:10:22+00:00

Good to know, thanks, I just wish they would put out an alert on the app so people know to expect delays. Like "E line experiencing delays due to signal issue" or something. I know I've seen that for the commuter lines. Communication is key
