He said it looks like it’s photoshop and not real, but it is real, it’s just the weird lighting that makes it look like it. (Hope you wanted a real answer and your comment wasn’t just joking, couldn’t tell)
I installed G-HUB the other week, and my only annoyance with it so far was the amount of times it informed me of the mouse DPI settings. Thankfully that was easy enough to turn off, but what other things about it are troublesome?
I don’t really care for profiles, or RGB settings… is it bad in other ways? (Genuinely curious, not meaning to sound snarky)
GHUB likes to wipe my keybinds and onboard settings every few weeks for no reason, and then sometimes it just completely refuses to open, so I have to reinstall the program just so I can reconfigure everything again.
Imagine having set up keybind for our mouse, ND then the game updates and creates a new executable or two somewhere else, and no matter what you do, it never recognizes the game ever again. So no more keybind, and the only way to fix would be to set up a profile and disabled the auto switch running all other games and profiles you have…
That’s my experience with ghub, otherwise apart from clunky unintuitive ui, it at least worked.
(the game is rainbow six siege by the way, haven’t been able to use a profile in that game all year. Part of the blame is naturally that siege does things very shitty when you can include like 5 different executables that are run)
I had trouble with my Logi G935 Headset. Whenever I muted myself by flipping the mic up, I couldn’t unmute ever again. Had to replug the receiver. Once I uninstalled G-Hub I noticed the mic immediately unmuting. Now it works without any problems.
I could even reactivate the Virtual Surround Sound by installing the respective audio software (DTS:X Headphones iirc).
Since then I have migrated to a dedicated Wired Headphone/Microphone Setup, which works flawlessly (and sounds way better).
Yeah, it will probably work out if all 1.4 billion people all drive alone in a car, occupying at least 15m² each. Needs one more lane, but then traffic will be solved!
Because when the word “progress” is used, it is usually a loaded term with some specific connotations. The quotes indicate this is a reference to the word “progress”, not a use of the word “progress”, and it’s intended to draw your attention to the fact that this change, while clearly a positive and desirable one, contrasts strongly with what is usually meant when a person says it.
That’s how I feel about SoCal. I noticed on Google Maps a lot of homes are taking up the sea cliffs south of LA. I always thought that all coastline in CA was public…
Titles are OP not realizing that the roads have been moved underground and are still there even though the picture doesn’t suit his metropolitan dystopia thematic preferences. Or at least that’s the only way they make sense.
As opposed to trying to frame everything into the left-right pantheon? Did treating this as a completely separate environmental / city planning concern hurt people’s brain?
It’s a bit vain to want it at the expense of logical city planning. If the destruction of that road caused major traffic issues or inhibited road access to areas, that would explain why OP added quotes.
Logical city planning is planning a city in such a way that provides the greatest overall loving experience to it’s inhabitants and passers-through.
This depends on the location of the city. Traffic prevention and green spaces are 2 things that need to be balanced. If a road that thousands travel on daily is being demolished to make way for a park that a few hundred people will maybe use, then it could be doing more harm than good.
This is ultimately a decision for communities to make, not us armchair planners, and it looks like they valued the park more.
By your own definition “logical city planning” is best done with a good and well integrated public transportation network and the spaces thus freed by having fewer cars being repurposed for uses with proven health benefits compared to roads … which just happen to be green spaces as there are actual proven benefits for human mental and physical health, both from the greenery and the reduction in noise an particulate polution when big roads with heavy traffic are removed.
Favoring individual cars in a urban environment is actually worse in pretty much every metric: not just mental and physical health but even timewise as better public transportation means way less time wasted in traffic jams, because of all the cars removed from the road and because paradoxically more roads incentivise more cars, so new/bigger roads solve traffic jam problem for a while and then eventualyl it get as bad or worse than before only now there are even more cars, hence more people, stuck in traffic, so more public transportation means shorter commuting times even when you reduce the number/size of roads.
I get the impression that your logic in thinking of more roads for cars as “logical city planning” comes from never having experienced living in an urban setting with a proper well integrated public transport network or widespread use of cycling for short commutes, which is a critical blindspot in knowledge when claiming to understand urban planning.
“Logical city planning” for you does not include planning a city that people enjoy living and breathing in. Just one that cars dominate more every year.
After WW2 cities in NRW have been rebuilt with cars and cars only in mind. You’ve got major roads with 6 lanes crossing right through city centres and residential areas. Traffic is killing people. Roads in favor of public transport makes people buy cars if they want to go anywhere. More cars need more roads. It’s an endless cycle and results in hostile living environments. We need less cars. A lot less.
