Both of these people suck. But downvoting because the article doesn’t really feel like political news? Seems very sensationalized.

So happy to see some more toys in this space, it’s really pretty limited and there are some cool toys that can appeal to all kinds of kids.

Oh wow, that’s scary. I’m semi-rural too, thankfully I don’t hear much about accidents or incidents in roundabouts at least locally. I’m curious about areas where there are pedestrians and bikes that cross roundabouts too… where I’m at they are farther away from walkable/bikeable territory so it’s really just cars using them.

I’m going to assume positive intent and not the hostile tone “knock it off” reads like to me.

True… roundabouts took some time but are pretty prevalent now in my region and people have gotten used to them. I don’t think the US shouldn’t try things, just pointing out a difference in culture and attitude towards cars & bikes in the US compared to Dutch. I also don’t think a college town is the right place to test something like this, maybe I’m wrong and discounting younger drivers too heavily.

I trust the Dutch with this design, bikes are treated as priority with a lot of respect. Not the same in the US… and in this test, I especially wouldn’t trust college town kids and local drivers who asked for (and got) additional parking on the same street.

Which UI?

ETA: asking since people will see this across the fediverse, and may not realize where you posted this

Love that I can hop over to kbin (or vice versa) when this stuff happens.

Yeah I did some searching instead of hanging out on that one, super sketch

TIL that NBC has a sequel.

Also this bit helps understand a bit more why these requests are missing. Counties are simply following a very shitty new Desantis law.

However, a new law signed by Governor Ron DeSantis requires counties to purge requests before every general election.

Strawberry and Mint need to set aside their differences and take our ‘Nilla. Is prob what is going on in Reddit.

 

Vanilla: 33.94%
Strawberry: 32.66%
Mint: 33.4%

Right and I’m sure this asshat congressman does not.

 

I need a quippy response to say it’s not that bad, I promise, google or click the link and scan it. Then let’s chat about what you think

 

I love the world vibe and tricolor, although the turf war grind is pretty boring and I miss ranked modes. Probably not a hot take.

Splatoon fans? (kbin.social)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by numbscroll@kbin.social to c/gaming@kbin.social
 

The Kbin Splatoon community is kinda quiet, do we have more Splatoon fans out there on Kbin or elsewhere? I found a good Lemmy spot too.

 

Seemed like emojis in posts / comments would get downvoted to oblivion on Reddit. I don’t see the same thing on Kbin (or other instances / services).

 

So I’m still getting the hang of the fediverse, and really enjoying my time here. This may be helpful for new people trying to figure out their setup.

-Pixelfed is your instagram: I joined Pixelfed.social since in general I am trying to see how the largest communities play out

-Kbin or lemmy is your Reddit. Again I joined kbin.social, but these communities all talk (or “federate”) to each other so it’s a matter of personal preference if you want to join the main .social or find an alt instance that feels more like you’re kinda stuff

-Mastadon is your twitter (I’m sure there are others, I’m just not a big twitter style person). Honestly I wasn’t a big twitter person anyway, but a cool thing about ActivityPub is you can see things from kbin, pixelfed, etc from any one of them. It’s not always clean but it’s pretty dam cool

I wish all well in their journey across the threadiverse. It really does seem awesome even if it’s taking some time to build up with users and content.
