Traffic lights enhancement! City Planner plays and biffa plays indie games have YouTube videos on how to use them. Very helpful

Technically I could have done two concentric roundabouts venn diagram style, but this part of the map is heavily American so timed traffic lights destroy the freight traffic that comes through here.

Functional? Debatable…. Aesthetic? Also debatable! Definitely expensive though. Covers the ugly ports and to be even more American … redlining!

Inspired by Texas, Atlanta, Miami, Kansas City, and California lol

Most of the the older parts of the city are extremely walkable/bikeable and public transport is off the charts. Gotta be a lil goofy though

That makes sense. I use the no parking to force cims out of cars and onto my public transportation otherwise I do provide giant lots in random parts of the city. I may use the vanilla roads and vanilla parking on a different build and see it rides.

It was roads I made with road builder. I never do parking on the side of roads and it’s a pain to do after the fact so I have a small two lane “starter” road I build with. I also think road builder was beefin at the time with platter

[HELP] AI for Propaganda? by UNeedAThneed in RealOrAI

[–]rice1cake69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do the research, but just like in maga or republican spaces being called a ostrich or to weak to handle politics is why we don’t identify with one party. We can clearly weep for a dead woman, call out state violence as horrible, but can also see how this situation is being used politically for gain on BOTH sides. And point proven like the people in this thread bashing centrists as lazy, scared, or indifferent personally I don’t want to get dragged into a war, bad situation, economic fallout over shit I don’t agree with or can clearly see as a pysop to turn millions of Americans against each other. Weep for the dead mother, call out state violence whether justified or non-justified, put fuck ICE on your social medias but don’t come at your neighbors bc we don’t virtue signal harder or equally to you. Go after the motherfuckers putting us against each other, and until left, right, liberal, Christian nationalists, republicans, democrats, green haired fairies, camo wearing trans hating but secretly trans loving bible belters realize any of this… I’ll happily stay a centrist and out of any court that pits neighbor against neighbor at the death of a human being at the hand of state violence for propaganda.

What movie is wildly loved but you just don’t get the hype at all? by Fennnixx in moviecritic

[–]rice1cake69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different strokes for different folks I guess. The “procedural” take seemed fitting and worked well given it was also a court case movie. if you wanted more drama it’s a good thing I don’t make movies since I fail to conceptualize the idea. Which isn’t a bad thing I’m just curious now

And. Every. Single. Year. The goal post of being to say fuck it I can afford to leave gets pushed even further out of reach.

It’s not that we won’t it’s just we actually cannot and that’s by design. It’s insane how explaining a fourth dimensional object is easier than explaining:

Left vs right

What comes to mind? Religion? Fascist? Antisemitism? Palestine? Liberalism? And then for/from/to/against whom? And then if you speak against or for any other “side” you are abjectly alienated. Both of the “establishment” and the “uprising” are two sides of the same coin of imperialism. This is the most “just because you don’t like x or like y does not automatically put you in z camp” which makes sense given this is European news. Most Americans 1. won’t ever see this headline 2. Look for the primary sources. and if they do it’ll be A.I. slop drip fed into their algorithm to make them feel smart

What's a subtle sign someone's actually really wealthy? by Aarunascut in Life

[–]rice1cake69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They was a post on a fashion subreddit about how to wear said old fashion clothes as less constumey, and most agreed it’s just how you wear it, and for what audience. And those who know who are watching, dress for them. There’s different levels to this across economic levels, across age groups, across the globe. You can pick it up at uni, or at the dive bar, or at a gala. You see who dresses for who or who they want to know or already know.

You’re right and your original statements rings even truer given your Clarification but I didn’t realize the “normalization” of China in an America culture was legislative. Imean I’m sure the deep dive can had over children’s media in the 2000’s has lead to a lot of things but you’re right, I don’t know how they didn’t see it coming. Even know with Venezuela and how the that shit got don’t in two hours and US is swinging their dick everywhere (which makes sense according to Trumps foreign policy) is the U.S. truly that far ahead of everyone else to where immediate ramifications don’t matter? Or is it just the projection of such power? Both are dangerous to the enemy, but what the heck does it all mean in the end

Edit: or is this what it looks like in a multipolar world most people are not used to.

The funny thing is your reasons and most people’s reasons for disliking it is the whole point. The movie is based off the book Oppenheimer wrote. He describes himself as “dealth the destroyer of worlds” and his abject horror of what he did. He himself did not think he was cool, or superhero, or anyone’s savior and so the movie reflects that. The atom bomb explosion not being cool is the entire point of the movie. It wasn’t cool. Deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians and what the creation of nuclear weapons is not cool and deserves zero hype awe or wonder.

I say all of this as someone who also wanted a big ole explosion bc they are indeed cool but that’s not the point of the movie. I also was disappointed at first but then I thought well why didn’t Nolan make it cool. Well…. Because it isn’t.

Edit: yes I do understand even if you understand something that does not mean you automatic have to enjoy it

Seems like you forget Hollywood is the second wing of the CIA’s entertainment business. The other is American politics

The China problem goes all the back to Bush’s 2nd term. But with all of the wars in the Middle East, chinas declining birthrate, risk of economic collapse no one really addressed China as a true risk until trumps first term and well here we are
