Surprising amount of infrastructure, and even more surprising popularity for in-person voting in Melbourne - had a 15 minute queue (longer than I've ever had in NZ) with a constant stream of new people coming in in that time.

we need an option for "follow this person, but mute their entire special interest topic"

There is no amount of frequency that the 96 will not immediately suck up and turn in to a crush load. This is at 10:45pm!

Admittedly this only a 20 minute frequency (But every 10 minutes if you count the 16 which takes a slightly different route to the city from the same stop!)

It's a good Claude, I just didn't think it'd be Japanese

I once asked claude a question about pirating video games and it got really mad at me and I felt so genuinely ashamed

Elon fucking with the algo again so that I see 200% more posts from CNN than usual (which is 300% more than I want to see)

Maybe I just have cheap taste in flowers, but the florist by QVM continues to be astonishingly affordable compared to literally anywhere else in the city, but especially the supermarkets

The Texas MUTCD has some truly innovative examples of "Fuck you, die" bicycle infrastructure

A minor concern in the grand scheme of things, but why do so many jurisdictions put the hook turn box in the wrong place? It goes behind the bike lane! That way you can be out of the way of through traffic and get to make a much smoother curve, instead of a tight 90 degree turn!

I get the sentiment, but Pedestrian Rage is just as real as road rage. Walking through an overstimulating Melb Central at 5:30 on a sticky hot weekday when I just want to go to the goddamned supermarket will have me *yearning* for the swift death of me and everyone around me
It seems that being behind the wheel of a car turns people into entitled, narcissistic assholes. No longer are people allowed to casually exist outside of a car. You're forced to scurry and always remain vigilant so that you never force a motorist into touching their brake.

There's a certain type of guy, especially common on reddit, who will refuse to accept any sort of criticism of a service if its frequent enough "Every tram is crush loaded" "But its every 10 minutes" "It doesn't matter, the next one is crush loaded too" "But theres 6 tph"

As far as I can tell it's some sort of inferiority complex from living regionally, where you get trains once an hour. Yes, that's bad, but services can be inadequate in metro regions too! They often are, in all the same ways as regionally, plus some cool extra ones too!

Not 100% sure what can be gleaned from this, but I fear it's not entirely complimentary for me
My top 9 childhood PC games, won't be a surprise given my current interests & line of work! A DOS games included here too which ages me a bit.

Also first concept image I've seen of the new intersection at Te Irirangi Drive connection through Whakamaumahara Guys Reserve.

God forbid a bus with no motor or pedestrian conflicts takes anything but a torturously windy route at maddeningly low speeds compared to adjacent roads
