Didn’t this one get fixed? It’s the one by andersonville right?

I have so many of these blocked lol.

I blocked so many meme communities which helped my ALL feed look better, but then it was filled with political shit. The problem is, any time something controversial happens regarding someone the broader community doesn’t like (elon musk, trump, republicans in general), you have thread after thread after thread of this shit popping up. I don’t care to hear why republican bad, because I already know republican bad. I’m an intellectually curious being with better things to do with my time than hear about the latest political thing.

And then finally as you said, the technology communites can be a bit tiresome, like when there’s a post about every single time a frickin’ library updates.

Pretty much the only stuff I unsubscribe to is tech or politics subs

Same, same.

Okay. And?

… what?

The first language I tried to learn as a kid was Batch scripting…

(edit: and then some VBScript along the way! Eventually worked my way to C++ though)

Either my instance updated recently, or I didn’t notice it at the bottom of the block page. So useful thank you!!! No more lemmynsfw spam!

Being able to block entire instances from your feed, without defederating.

Are you sure they can’t afford them?

Gen Zers are tracking ahead of their parents’ homeownership rate: 30% of 25-year olds owned their home in 2022, higher than the 27% rate for Gen Xers when they were the same age.

I didn’t have to, but I did. You seem to care enough to write a reply?

Yea I’m just blocking this community. I’m tired of seeing this shit on my feed.

What has any of that got to do with the video?

I can work with that, thanks!

Thank you for being understanding.

Will you also go back to Reddit with me?

Sorry I have something coming up this weekend, maybe we can try for next week? :)

it was a bit hard for me to believe that you haven’t come across them.

I genuinely haven’t, but I also haven’t been following r/f*ckcars ever since the City Nerd incident. *shudders*

You self proclaime to be “based an train-pilled” but

Yes.

Please take your attitude back to r*ddit.

Japan?

*reads bio*

Japan.

EDIT: this was my experience in Japan as well: deny the plastic bag from the worker, to buy a plastic bag of 2 apples, individually wrapped in plastic, with the plastic foam sleeves to prevent bruising… and yet Japan still has less single-use plastic waste than America!

Nice choice on Denver! If you enjoy mountain biking, you need to check out the Colorado Trail, which is over 450 miles long!

Thank you for the comment and infographic.

I disagree. Lots of developed countries in Europe and Asia have desirable urban disign. In fact, I would argue that the USA is uniquely bad.

I totally, 100% agree with you here. I’ve seen that tax income vs tax burden graphic before as well and I think it is a great way to visualize the effectiveness of commercial space used in a city. I truly wish that suburbia would adopt better zoning laws…

*EDIT (for the paragraph below): I just watched another video titled “Are Dutch Cities Really that Different? Debunking Cycling Myths” - which addresses exactly my angst! This is the quote: “If cycling advocates focus too much on the Netherlands… if it’s always the example that gets brought up… regular people and cycling critics will understandably get a little suspicious, and assume that cycling is just a quirk of one unique country. People arguing for bike infrastructure need to be able to talk about other places: London, New York, Vancouver, Bogota, Tokyo, and so on…”

I wish I had specified that I think that the Netherlands is unique specifically about biking. They seem to be at the top of many of the cycling metrics, sometimes by a lot. For example, the Netherlands is the only place with more bikes than people! To me, it’s no wonder, considering the bike culture predating WWII, and limited space, that such a small country would end up with some of the highest-quality, high-density bikable nieghborhoods on the planet. Hopefully my rant feels a bit more grounded in reality then…

NJB calls this “The Dumbest Excuse for Bad Cities”

Haven’t seen this one yet!

*POST-WATCH EDIT: That video was pretty darn sad. Hopefully the situation will improve within my lifetime :(

If you like spreadsheets presented as a youtube video: you should check out citynerd. Here’s a video where he lists cities with affordable, walkable neighborhoods: 10 Walkable US Cities That Won’t Bankrupt You. Spoiler: Pittsburgh wins.

I’ve seen it, and I have lived in one of the cities mentioned. It was a good time, I only wish it had more separated bike lanes!

I think that parking reforms is the best way to move away from car dependency, and these are being mandated in the state of Oregon, which has also had urban growth boundaries for a long time.

I have been trying to find a nice state in my spare time and so I’ve put them in a little text document. I will move Oregon up on the priority list, I hadn’t heard about the urban growth boundaries. Thank you!!
