Our goal is to peacefully encourage more people to cycle and convince car owners to use their car for less trips when viable to do so. A lot of people own cars, would calling them Nazis really help our cause?

My vision is we make cyclists and public transit users look like responsible happy citizens and attract jealousy of those stuck in traffic.

Obviously weren’t paying much attention and took it as a free holiday. Much like the attention they pay on the roads in their big SUVs.

The ACT has done a fantastic job in this field. If you’re a commuter you’ll rarely find yourself on a road, and if you do it will most likely have a permanent bike lane (no parked cars in sight)

Sure, if you’re more of an adventurous cyclist like me and do more advanced rural cycling, you might end up on some roads (eg. when riding to Queanbeyan) but even that route has a bike lane.

Shame that Adelaide, the “cycling capital” because of the Tour Down Under, has terrible bike infrastructure and timed bike lanes so people are allowed to park in them off-peak.

If you can, move back in with your parents

I know people who make 50k per month and don’t have jets. I make 30k p/m but I’ll get there one day. It’s crazy how when I was broke making $20/hour in a cafe that I thought everyone or most people are broke but now I’m making modest money it’s crazy how many other entrepreneurs are in my circle now. Just wow.

Looks like a floating point error

Too wholesome

Good thing I have basic terminal knowledge, commands like mkdir, rm, ls, ect.

And my system is just a media server with plenty of snapshots to backup with

Terminal makes things easy. I used to prefer gui, but now I just use terminal and ChatGPT because doing anything can simply be a matter of copy paste commands into the terminal from AI instead of having to research and/or navigate through settings menus to find the right setting.

By putting bicycle at the start of the news article, it makes the topic about bike riders instead of the topic being about bad driving.

See the impression titles give, just by the ordering of the words:

“Bicycle riders hit by car” - cycling is dangerous and don’t belong on the road

“Car hits bicycle riders” - how sad, poor cyclists, irresponsible driver

What was the original Simpsons screenshot? I want to know what those signs originally said.

Who uses a mouse? I function all applications with just a keyboard, my custom arch based distribution doesn’t even support mice because I removed all drivers from the kernel. /s

NAH. White men only harassed black men when they were first living amongst each other. Still happens today with old people that grew up in white circles, but they're dying out. The real reason we had racism is because before the 1800s, black people lived in Africa and white people lived in Europe. When globalism and more travel happened, some met, but it was a lot rarer to see travellers back then. So when the US was founded, people from all around the world flocked and first lived together which lead to a lot of culture shock and some disgusting negative stereotypes. The simple act of white men and black men living in the same country was enough to slowly eliminate racism. And it's pretty much completely gone in today's society.

...it is illegal. I don't know why you're making it seem like there's a death penalty for it. It's not Saudi Arabia, you're chillin'.

Yeah, you definitely won't. It's pretty attainable for everyone I see - every house is worth over $1,000,000! and all my neighbours own theirs, some are 2-3 million dollars with beautiful hillside views. so what are you doing wrong?

BOOO HOOO you live in america, you've clearly never seen what happens to gays in Saudi Arabia. I've seen them killed on national tv. Be grateful.

It’s a duck walking on reflective water no one tells me otherwise

We all contribute to the environmental impact. We should aim to reduce emissions.

A boat cost me less than my car. I probably use it more; cause I live on a river in one of those small river shacks so the boat is used as my second car, I’ve used it to go to the grocery store before. Get into it, go to the nearest town, tie it up to the dock and then walk 2 minutes to the grocery store. Pretty easy.

there’s no universal truth just points of view

I believe that water boils at 12°C at normal room pressure

Yeah in Australia that is the situation, why are y’all acting like we live in Iran or something

You live in an upper class country and you have a roof over your head, food and water what’s there to complain about? Get on with it.

But that’s not the case very often - you can live your life and a protest won’t stop the murderers.

Protesting is ineffective full stop. In any scenario, I don’t care if it’s conservatives trying to ban abortion or transgender begging not to be killed.

The most effective way to do things still stands: write a letter to your senator, and vote for senators with your views. If you don’t live in a democracy, plot a revolution and fight for your right to vote, which is something the North Koreans would do if they knew.

Happy birthday tux

Why the fuck are they logging a forest anyway? Go grow your own trees on a tree farm you dumb fucks. You already have thousands of acres of land for farming.

Who knows? Maybe a wealthy man might come to your town and start singing a monorail song.

Sounds like you needed a Flanders to balance things out! Diddly-darn bullies.

In the 20th century, their records were renowned. Where are The Beatles now?

NO

Just don’t go too far out and they can swim in the plentiful pools at their resorts

I don’t know how someone can lurk without the urge to post something or comment, that must take willpower

Me. I do. It’s not like it’s $10,000 it’s a bloody 20 buck bread loaf mate. Bit pricy yeah but if I go water skiing with my mates on the river we always bring something to share for lunch and leave on my boat.

This is reasonable

I think people should live their life and don’t protest about one thing or another. Just be trans or be straight or be whatever but don’t protest and annoy people.

That... is silly. Things need to move.

So you expect us to live in a virtual pod with a treadmill and grow all of our own food? And collect rainwater?

Edit: I’m not saying we shouldn’t reduce our need for freight. Growing food in your backyard (half of my yard is good production) reduces the need for freight emissions. And I cycle to work. But drive or fly on holidays, I wish we had a more reliable train network.

You're a slave if you mindlessly watch YouTube etc. etc. cause it grows their business. Working for a company, you are paid to live your life on the side, and you can invest this to build your dream life. Working hard for companies warrants you a promotion, increasing this money. I can start a business.

You can't sleep with them because you have to work while they sleep and they work when you sleep if it's 12 on 12 off
