Do you plan to run a train through every grocery store, stop to unload at each stop, and still expect to get everything there at the same time?
We don’t live in a wildwest train town. Our cities are not built around trains and unless you plan to literally tear down the entirety of New York it will not work.
Even most delivery vehicles should be replaced by either cargo bikes or by spur lines off the railroad.
I just don’t think it’d be practical to fill entire grocery stores worth of stuff on bikes. You’re not dealing with a few packages of office supplies. You’re dealing with entire warehouse districts worth of stuff having to move across cities. Even with reduced consumption, the amount of people needed to transport that on bikes would probably be more than the local population.
Yep, and that’s why most people should ride bikes and then use public infrastructure as needed. But automobiles are still necessary, unless you mean to bike in all the equipment you’d find in an ambulance.
so a post-personal-car future is still viable
It takes 160,000 bicycles to incur the road maintenance cost of a single personal car.
Are we disagreeing here or are you just mentioning a statistic?
Young Stalin definitely, but I think Lenin aged better. I could definitely see Engels being good for certain subsections of the gay community tbf.
You should try it on LSD like the creator of LSD did.
I think libs are under the (false) impression that roads are both completely mandatory in society
They kinda are in local transport to be fair. You can’t transport truck loads of stuff by bike to grocery stores. This necessitates some level of automobile road to get there. What’s unnecessary is regional/national roads for commerce. Most cities would still require road maintenance just for EMS and local commerce even if they had a robust public infrastructure. The good news is that buses can use these roads as well so a post-personal-car future is still viable. Roadless cities are not.
Works on my computer.
The Scat Man spoke out against shit like this. Don’t tarnish his good name for cheap jokes on social media man.
This is the only way a landlord will ever provide housing.
Running in the heat doesn’t make you a god-tier athlete. That’s what humans are literally built for dickhead.
I’ve started running less than a month ago and I can still do a 5k in 100+ degree heat.
I was listening to NPR today and some dipshit said it was a “Debt cancellation plan” then the idiot interviewer asked “But they still have to pay it all back right?” Dipshit said “Yes but with less interest so it’s still fulfilling Biden’s promise.”
I literally fucking screamed in my car. I have almost been killed by some drivers before but THIS is what caused me to flip my shit. I was so mad that I didn’t even feel bad when someone gave me a glare.
Also, this is the start week of college for most people which is probably a large portion of their userbase.
No, I’m literally unironically soyfacing at the rotato. It’s hands down the best emoji I’ve seen.
I was born with tenitus because I had shit tons of ear infections as a child. It kinda bothered me when I turned 18 and realized that it wasn’t the sound of silence.
I used to do all my work before 10:00 PM on the night shift and then read in between customers at my local gas station. Got chewed out and then decided to do everything slower while taking 5 minute breaks to “restock” the drinks. Overall, I still got my reading and I did less work.
Dipshit manager then says he was proud of me for doing more work. Work culture is entirely vibe based and has literally nothing to do with actual productivity.
