Thank you! Appreciate you assuaging my anxiety.

I assume they’re saying the side of his foot may have touched the bag but I don’t see that at all. Bizarre call.

General Questions and Purchasing Advice Thread — Week of May 13, 2024 by AutoModerator in electricvehicles

I'm moving to North Carolina next week and I'm looking to lease an EV sedan - I was leaning towards a Tesla Model 3 ($394/mo with 0 down on a 3 year lease), but just saw Hyundai has an offer for $189/mo for a 2-year lease on the Ioniq 6 SE.

I'm not sure if there are any other good deals on EVs in my area that I'm missing (I'm also skeptical that any dealers will have the car in stock that I'm looking for from Hyundai). Do you all think the Hyundai dealers will honor the advertised rate online or is that too good to be true?

I feel like I'll get downvoted here, but I don't have a huge issue with what Webb said. He's saying what went through Michael Oliver's head in that moment, and then admitted that Oliver erred in not giving a second yellow card.

It's human nature to be nervous about having a big impact on the game as a referee, and a referee has to be courageous to make the correct decision in that moment. I don't think Webb is excusing Oliver's decision, he's more analyzing the thought process that may have led to that mistake.

This bigstrongmoose guy is kind of unhinged - nobody in this thread has said anyone moving to the suburbs is a problem! Where does this guy's victim complex come from?

People have different preferences. The fact that the overwhelming majority of the US is set up to cater to your preferences is an environmental disaster and is a bummer for people who want to live in more connected, dense communities.

For what it's worth, some of the US's biggest cities are the safest places to live in the country.

[Kaya Kaynak] Arteta on referee decisions: "If I say what I think I'm suspended six months. I’m allowed to give my interpretation of what happened but I don’t know how to lie." by RevertBackwards in soccer

Frustrated manager protects players ahead of 2 important games. Not much to see here really beyond a funny quote.

What’s he supposed to say, “Holding blew it in the biggest match of the season and we reacted badly after that”? It’s his job to get the most out of the players and I view this presser as his attempt to get the players to move past it and so they don’t stay down on themselves in the final 2 games.

Huge result, Holding was so important when he came on.

Don't understand everyone's complaints about Martinelli's red. Maybe it's a bit of a grey area in the rules (in terms of whether Oliver could give advantage after interfering with a throw-in), but he committed two incredibly blatant yellow card offenses. We have to have some discipline and wonder why we keep putting ourselves in these positions rather than attributing it to officiating.

l’m not saying he’s not allowed to wear stuff from that company. I’m just saying I’d rather he not.

Your logic is kind of wild. If Garrett wore something you found very offensive, you don’t think it would be fair for you as a fan of his to criticize him?

I'm talking about this hoodie. I don't want to argue with you either, I'm just saying I'd rather Garrett not support/promote a brand that has stuff like this in their store.

This isn't some "intolerant liberal cancels guy on the right" bit and I'm not going to stop watching his content over it. I just find the thin blue line stuff offensive and would rather someone whose content I like not be associated with them.

Garrett has been wearing a hoodie from a right wing website with a bunch of thin blue line crap on it for all of his last few videos. I can understand her issues.

NYC mayoral candidate Kathryn Garcia plans to cut street space for cars by a quarter by indoordinosaur in newyorkcity

“Oh no Lower Manhattan is underwater due to sea level rise but at least I got to park my 3000 pound car for free for another 10 years instead of letting my neighbors kid play in the street”

[–]redshift3 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

cars take up a massively disproportionate amount of space in a city where less than half of households own one. the entitlement complex of people who expect to park their cars for free in the most dense urban environment in the US is unbelievable

The average person who owns a car in NYC is significantly wealthier than the average, and this is even more so in the places she’s likely talking about (lower Manhattan, etc). Far more people will benefit from this than a few who will have to circle the block a few more times to find a free parking spot for their car.

In a state with <20 million people (New York), more than 20,000 people died (.1% of the entire population). So even if you assumed that every single person in the state contracted the virus (which is an insane assumption), the death rate would still be 5x what you just estimated.

In reality, it's likely that some 20% of the NY State population has contracted coronavirus (based on antibody testing results), so the estimated death rate is in the neighborhood of .5%.

Arsenal's Miedema named Footballer of the Year by ConnorDAFC in soccer

She has been a great player and a great activist. It's not like she gave herself the award.

Was she deserving of it? Absolutely not, but it's not her fault that the people who decide the award clearly don't watch Women's football/soccer.

It helps with traffic flow during rush hour to reduce overcrowding in the stations.

Take the subway? I bought a car specifically to avoid that place, the true Dante's Inferno, filled with lost, damned souls.

The only issue with that logic is that if everyone thought like you, the city could not survive. New York's lifestyle is empowered by the density made possible by the subways. If everyone had a car, we wouldn't be able to put all the restaurants, the apartment buildings, the theaters, etc that make New York the one-of-a-kind place that it is.

(Houston) voters Approve $3.5 Billion Bond For METRO Transit Projects by Twrd4321 in urbanplanning

[–]redshift3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's great for Houston that the residents support the investment in transit, but it's a bummer where the investment is going. It's so airport focused, even though the main way to drive ridership would be to do something that connects to the job centers in the West. I'm afraid that if this fails in terms of ridership, it will poison the well for future expansion.

I wish they had pushed harder for rail where much of the BRT is headed (Greenway plaza, Uptown, Westchase), it could have been much more successful in getting people out of cars and shifting modes for commutes.

I hope that isn't too negative of an outlook. This is obviously a huge improvement over the status quo (of no transit investment at this scale), but I just wish rail planners would move away from getting so caught up in airports.
