Do you go to every community with memes you don't understand and complain they didn't give you context?

I demand !ich_iel translate all memes into English for me! ^\s^

Is it similar to what took feddit.uk (I think) down a couple if days ago? Could it be related?

Right: so they don't make colorful vehicles, refuse to take orders for them, and then pretend colorful vehicles don't sell.

Watch out for them immediately contracting with Axon instead, which is just as bad.

@remindme@mstdn.social one month

Edit: I haven't gotten a confirmation message, so maybe the bot is down? There are several other "remindme" bots to choose from, though, so at least one of them ought to work.

The problem is all the states that handed their voter rolls over willingly.

No matter how irreversibly fucked we are, we can and will continue to get even more fucked every second we don't change our habits.

I would very much like to know what the sentencing guidelines are for negligent homicide in circumstances other than driving.

Not sure, but I think Medicaid pays for more than medicare does. My retired parents still have copays for stuff.

Reposting in the same community doesn't just deserve downvotes, it violates rule 5 and thus deserves removal.

But to the best of my knowledge, this article was never posted in this community before. !fuckcars@lemmy.world is not !fuck_cars@lemmy.ml or !fuckcars@lemmy.ca.

If that's incorrect, please cite the URL of the previous copy.

Been riding my 28 mph unlocked e-bike for years. ... I have to pedal to go fast...

I wouldn't call that "unlocked," I'd call that "switched to Class 3 mode." Yours sounds like it's still a legal e-bike, which makes it categorically different from the ~~"fast e-bikes"~~ illegal e-motorcycles that are actually causing all the problems.

Interesting article from 2018. But nothing has changed at all. Even the electric cars I see on the road are huge.

A well researched and referenced video (see yt description for references and spreadsheets), from Sharath of Building Beautifully.

The cost of building transit in the Anglosphere has spiralled out of control. Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore and Hong Kong are all terrible at managing transit costs. Meanwhile, nations like France, Spain, South Korea and Turkey are running laps around the Anglosphere, building world-class transit at unprecedented speeds for prices up to four times cheaper. There is no reason for building transit to cost this much. Follow me as we unpack the staggering reasons that costs have spiralled out of control, and what we can do about it. Thank you to Jedwin Mok for appearing in this video! Jedwin introduced me to the transit costs crisis in mid-2025, which led me to ultimately create this video and interview him for it.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced Tuesday that his department would redirect $1.73 billion in Biden-era grants away from establishing “DEI bike lanes” to build roads and bridges instead.

So, what exactly is a “DEI bike lane?”

The Daily Wire pointed to former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s claim that a series of 2021 grants funding bike lanes would serve to “improve infrastructure, strengthen supply chains, make us safer, advance equity, and combat climate change.”

Upon hearing “equity,” President Donald Trump’s goons can’t help but get triggered into attacking any federal spending that won’t benefit them directly. In reality, those Biden-era grants directed funds to build a new transit center in North Carolina, replace bridges in New Mexico, extend streets in New Hampshire, install traffic lights and crosswalks in Missouri, and install bike lanes in Seattle, among other projects. Now the financial status of these projects is unclear.

A new big-data analysis of the U.S. pinpoints how urban design aids the health of city residents—especially when cities provide walking opportunities, greenery and mixed-use streets with a blend of commercial and residential activity.
