Zoning bylaw might require 1.5 parking spaces per dwelling unit. Three buildings would then need 450 spaces at roughly 128 sqft. each which would take up nearly an acre and a half.

The three buildings on their own probably wouldn't need even a single acre.

And NixOS instead of Arch Linux and openSUSE Tumbleweed and Fedora 😊

I'll take a Double Triple Bossy Deluxe, on a raft, four-by-four animal-style, extra shingles with a shimmy and a squeeze, light axle grease, make it cry, burn it, and let it swim.

In my city, all of the pictures of bicycles on the asphalt are underneath parked cars.

Introverts have absolutely no issues striking up a conversation.
Is it mentally exhausting? Sure. Would I rather be doing literally anything else? Yeah, probably. But introverts don't automatically have social anxiety.

Gaaahhhh why is this so relatable

Even if you aren't a mustard purist, there are so many better things to put on a hot dog before ketchup.

Matrix has the unfortunate problem right now where all the big clients have matrix.org set as the default homeserver. Yes, it is a decentralized and federated protocol, but I wonder how many users are registered on matrix.org vs other servers.

It's the same argument when discussing why people need a pickup truck as their daily driver for the one time a year they need to haul a trailer or move a couch. When faced with the possibility of switching from a half-ton to a sedan, suddenly everybody needs to carry their refrigerator with them everywhere.

I'd be curious to know the stats of how many driving trips are done in cities vs your washboard example.

I gave up on Below Zero around the time you're given the blueprints for the hover bike. I just could not get invested in whatever linear narrative they were trying to push, so I put the game down and haven't touched it since.

It feels like the devs captured lightning in a bottle with the first game but couldn't figure out what exactly made it so popular and fun to play. It certainly didn't do them any favours when they got rid of their composer Simon Chylinski. His score was so important at setting the tone.

Subnautica is one of my favourite games of all time and it kills me to know that we won't get another one like it.
