I just noticed. I’m pleased that I narrowed it down to Turkey or a Baltic state.

Yeah, Latvia is way ahead of the world in this respect. Or The States at least…

Iron_Lynx,

Whatever that country this is (Turkey? A Baltic state?), it’s ahead of OP by a leap.

Iron_Lynx,

So I was right that it’s a lyric, just not a Sabaton one 😅

Iron_Lynx,

I feel bad for my brother right now, since his gf cannot have onions and garlic due to a food intolerance. At least spring onions are still tolerable, but still…

Iron_Lynx,

And NE with garlic sauce if I’m having a Kapsalon

Iron_Lynx,

Strictly ketchup? TN.

Any sauce? Usually LN with Dutch chip sauce or mayonnaise.

Iron_Lynx,

Then let me specify:

Wide enough for one pickup and no opposing traffic, but so narrow that two pickups are going to really have to negotiate to move around each other.

Iron_Lynx,

I agree with that last point, but the rest ignores the fact that this refers especially, specifically to school zones, where, as stated previously, fast traffic is a bloodbath about to happen.

Iron_Lynx,

School busses do nothing to solve the problem of speeding in school zones.

Iron_Lynx,

Ah yes, “tHe UsA iS tOo BiG, wE cAnT sOlVe ThIs”

Yes you can fix this. The Dutch bicycle culture was started by municipal votes, where resolutions passed municipal governments with margins of single votes. If American politicians can pull their heads out of their asses and even only pass a resolution that:

  • Disseminates empirical research on road safety to all traffic engineers,
  • Prioritises safety for all users on roads and streets, with priority given to those without armour (i.e. a car), and maybe
  • Penalised engineers and politicians who choose to fail to design for safety

Then in the next thirty odd years, I think that the worst offenders can be rebuilt.

Do note that few things are as good at destroying themselves in regular, correct use as car infrastructure.

Iron_Lynx,

street that was designed wrong

Not Just Bikes? *checks link* yep, Not Just Bikes.

Yeah, speeding is a symptom of poor infrastructure design. It means one of a few possibilities:

  • You don’t care and get speeding tickets
  • You do care and piss off everyone else on the road
Iron_Lynx,

Thank you for translating this recipe from to the rest of the world.

Iron_Lynx,

If we can harvest those to make ballistic vests, then I see opportunities.

Iron_Lynx,

I’m with OP on the being had in the first half. Though I’d add, with a little bit of added effort, you can fix both. The fact that the US can do neither is, in my book, a failure of policy.

Iron_Lynx,

RON SWANSON: I reject all cookies.

Wait, I don’t think I was clear enough. I didn’t ask to reject a lot of cookies. I reject all cookies.

Iron_Lynx,

That’s a shag, a noun. What about the verb, to shag?

Iron_Lynx,

nah, radiative cooling means that radiation is the only mechanism for heat exchange in use. I’m pretty sure most modern air coolers use forced convection as one of their heat exchange mechanisms.

Iron_Lynx,

Ik ga er niet om liegen, ik had niet gerekend op een Duitse reactie op de vorige opmerking xD

Iron_Lynx,

FROM: any cat:

To whomever keeps taking the content of my pissed-in litter box,

That’s just taking the piss.

Iron_Lynx,

Bring back truly smart devices

  • Godzilla is a metaphor (either intended or simply ingrained in the Japanese psyche) for Hiroshima and Nagasaki

From what I’ve gathered, not quite. The film showed up around the time of the Castle Bravo tests at the Bikini Atoll. The bomb tested there turned out to be dirtier than predicted, and fallout made it to some Japanese fishing vessels. It became a bit of an international incident.

And then the original Gojira film launched. And one early scene showed a fishing boat, which went under in a bright flash of light.

Gojira, or Godzilla as he was westernised, was not just the personification of the bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, it was the personification of the fact that this could happen again.

One take on it that I’m copying

Iron_Lynx,

This… is surprisingly familiar…

Iron_Lynx,

How many cars have you seen with step-free access?

And besides, surely there exist no disabilities that inhibit people’s ability to operate a vehicle like a car, right?

Iron_Lynx,

It looks to be another federated instance that seems to be compatible with other Lemmy instances.

Iron_Lynx,

Same. I never subbed to pornographic subreddits, so when I saw a lady broadcasting her breasts on my front page, I had to do a double take. And then I made this post here xD
