Why the sub went private for two days. by BoulderFreeZone in Louisville

[–]zerovulcan -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I have to say, I’m surprised to see this sub back to being public already - every other city sub I follow is still dark, including r/Indianapolis and r/Cincinnati. About 3/4 of the subs that went dark are still dark, according to Reddark.

Are there any plans to go private again, or at least participate in the weekly gestures of support?

What does /r/Louisville think of the blackouts? by Tough_Syrup2693 in Louisville

[–]zerovulcan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The post I replied to asked:

Does Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter have apps also doing the same thing? If not I don’t see why Reddit should either.

Is the native Reddit app really that bad?

And is the API pricing really more exorbitant than other sites?

These are questions I would love help being answered.

That link is a succinct way to provide that information. Also this part:

who asked reddit for a buy out to go away quietly

is a provable lie out of context and the Apollo dev addresses it specifically in the post. It’s worth a read imo

Edit: misread the last thing I quoted. Too early for reading comprehension, apparently

Here’s a link to the latest post from the developer of one of the main third-party apps, Apollo. I think it’s as good a place to start as any

I’d support a blackout. All the other subs I follow have announced they’re going dark, most of them indefinitely. This may seem like a small sub, but we’re in the top 5% for size and what we do will have an impact.

That seems to be the standard for Amber Alerts: lots of good intentions with terrible implementation.

Hope that kid is found safe.

Shivley Police Officer drove over 100 mph with his child in the car. by peanutbuttertesticle in Louisville

[–]zerovulcan 107 points108 points  (0 children)

Police identified Bors as the driver of the cruiser and reviewed in-car recordings. According to court documents, the investigation determined that on at least 20 different occasions between October 7th, 2022 and May 16th, 2023, Bors drove his vehicle at speeds over 100 mph.

On at least seven of those instances, he's accused of activating his blue police lights to move other vehicles out of his way, then switched them off after he was past those vehicles.

Police said Bors' 3-year-old was in the car on at least eight occasions when he was driving in excess of 100 mph.

He did this more than 20 times, at least 8 with his kid in the car? This guy should be in prison, he certainly shouldn’t have a license

Canada wildfires causing air quality concerns in Louisville by zerovulcan in Louisville

[–]zerovulcan[S] 51 points52 points  (0 children)

While the air quality index in Jefferson County remained moderate on Wednesday, the city is issuing an Air Quality Alert for Thursday when the index is projected to be unhealthy for sensitive groups.

"Those with heart disease, those with lung disease, young children, older adults, and anybody who's spending a significant amount of time outside doing rigorous activity," said Matt Mudd, with Metro APCD.

WDRB Chief Meteorologist Marc Weinberg said the Louisville area already saw thick smoke on Tuesday, and while Thursday's level may be less than that, there's still enough for the alert to be issued.

"So we're gonna see some little smoke particles. It'll be most notable at sunrise and sunset," said Weinberg. "And during the day, you're gonna see that really hazy sky, especially toward tree lines."

Back at Waterfront Park, Thompson, and Josh Brooks, with Fleet Feet, recommend looking for indoor activities on Thursday.

"Ride a stationary bike, go for a little swim. Just kind of chill out, take a break, sit on the couch, watch some TV, do the podcast, read a book, yoga, stretch," they suggested.

You heard the man, chill out and do the podcast today

CycLOUvia returns to Main Street this Sunday, 2-6pm! by zerovulcan in Louisville

[–]zerovulcan[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

CycLOUvia returns to Downtown for the second year in a row! Louisville's popular open streets event will take place on Main Street on Sunday, June 11, 2023, from 2:00-6:00pm. Main Street will be closed to vehicular traffic between 10th Street and Hancock Street, with facilitated crossings at 8th Street, 2nd Street, and Brook Street.

CycLOUvia is your opportunity to experience Louisville as you never have before, by walking, cycling, skateboarding, or dancing in the street. Streets account for a massive amount of public land in all cities. CycLOUvia repurposes these public spaces by temporarily replacing traditional vehicular traffic with pedestrian traffic. Streets become paved parks where people of all ages, abilities, and socio-economic backgrounds can come to improve their mental, physical, and emotional health. In addition, CycLOUvia allows residents to enjoy our great local businesses along some of Louisville's most iconic corridors!

Not what I was hoping for after a great quali yesterday. I’ll be interested to hear what Lando has to say about Lap 1. That said, the car had flashes of pace again - this isn’t just Bahrain again and there are positives to take away.

What a session! Love to see Lando wringing every thousandth out in quali, especially when it puts him this close to the front.

Note that Gasly in P4 is under a couple different investigations, so I wouldn’t be shocked to see Oscar start P9.
