It disgusts me how today's so-called "cycling activists" are doing the work of the automotive lobby while thinking that they're the good guys.

Imagine if a bunch of politicians started pushing for a special residential area for a certain group, after having them habitually assaulted with weapons for many years. "We're terribly sorry about all the bloodshed but can't guarantee your safety, if you want to be safe, you have to go in this special place we designated for you".

That is what bike lanes are. We've tried "separate but equal". It doesn't work, because tyranny of the majority means a highly flexible definition of "equal".

People who have been riding bikes for many decades know what the game is. But zoomers and corona cyclists believe they know best. Instead of demanding justice, they demand segregation. Which is exactly what the automotive supremacists want.

What the fuck is wrong with these mongoloid slackers? They completely underschedule longhaul trains everywhere outside the NEC so almost no one can use them for shorter trips and then wonder why ridership is in the shitter. Each route should be minimum 3x a day per direction.

What are the considerations needed to make between choosing a locomotive or MU to power a train?
I know passenger trains in Europe tend to be MU but freight is always locomotive hauled.

What are your thoughts on Embraer? what is the future of the company? What do you hope they accomplish?

Winter is coming, or rather, it's here.

What now?

Show me the most degenerate shit you've ever seen

Is he still around?

Why the hell were so many cities built on a grid with roads running North-South and East-West? With the East-West roads you get the blinding sun directly in front of you a lot of the time. If your workplace is east of home you get blinded in both the morning and evening commute.

All you have to do to solve this is rotate the grid 45 degrees. Now the sun is never directly in front of you. When it's low in the horizon it will dip behind trees and buildings on the side of the roads. Buildings following the street grid won't get no direct sunlight on the North and South facing windows and blasted on the East and West facing windows.

Why did nobody think of this when cities were being planned?
