Fuck Cars•The "cargo van" that's actually a cargo bike (that's actually an electric cargo tuk-tuk)English

8·21 days agoYou gotta admit this is a damn sight better than gigantic conventional pickup trucks though
Wait really? I thought Amsterdam had that hard rubber cover thing over the tram tracks
That’s a goddamned shame. European tram systems have figured out how to deal with that for years now, I don’t understand why the US refuses to do it

7·22 days agoI looked at the tech specs and it’s 924mm wide, which is slightly wider than the average cargo bike or trike. A typical bike lane is anywhere from 2 to 4m wide, which should leave enough space for passing or oncoming bike traffic I think.
destructdiscOPtoLeft Urbanism@lemmy.ml•What passes for "walkability" in Bangalore, India
2·25 days agoYes it is, and I don’t think anyone’s going to want to walk past multiple rubbish tips backing on to the sidewalks. Also the street just happens to be more or less empty, otherwise there are bound to be cars and bikes and autorickshaws sitting pretty right there
That’s also what you’d see in any Indian city when the road isn’t dug up like that

1·30 days agoYeah that’s nice to think about in theory, but in practice it’d be kicking open Pandora’s box of pandemonium

Fuck Cars•Zohran Mamdani, in the New York City mayoral debate: "Free buses would cost $700M. Cuomo gave more—$959M—to Elon Musk for a failed Tesla factory."English
238·1 month agoThe news, I guess? He made some very bombastic proclamations that endeared him to leftists and then promptly walked them right back to the middle of the road when the Democratic establishment (including Obama 1.0) got their claws into him

717·1 month agoyeah, what could be worse than the guy who authorized 563 drone strikes that killed nearly 4000 people, including American kids. Hmm.

216·1 month agoOff the top of my head, he’s very pro-NYPD (which I guess is the easiest way to get the cops to vote for him) and also he straight up said he’d have Zionists in his administration and not worry about what their support for Zionism means in practical terms, so. Yeah.

Fuck Cars•Could it be that "just one more lane bro" does not, in fact, fix traffic congestion? No, it's those goddamned migrants that are the problem.English
18·1 month agoThe traffic-choked bit is the approach to the flyover (the one that was opened in 2005). The uncongested lanes next to it are an extended ramp section of the flyover that was very recently opened, so there aren’t as many vehicles using it yet.
As trials have already proven, all this does is move the congestion from one section of the road to the next.

Fuck Cars•The Laziest Excuse for Bad Cities: "But it's raining/snowing/hot outside! You can't walk or cycle in bad weather!"English
9·1 month agoPublic transit and more affordable housing where people work is the actual solution.
… Therefore making bikes an excellent consequential solution to commuting. No one with a lick of sense is recommending that the only change required is that people switch to biking instead of driving.
Not that I’m disputing any of what you’re saying, but how is “No.” uppity?

Palestine@lemmy.ml•Israeli soldier who fought in Gaza commits suicide on his wedding day, exposing army’s deep crisis
1·2 months agoThat is exactly what they’re saying, and it’s horseshit. If they actually had regrets and wanted to make amends they’d take as many of their Nazi buddies with them as possible.
