Should it not be double foldable? It has two folds

Or the fact that it doesn't need to be real because 1. It's still funny and 2. We all know that the incident has happened somewhere, because shit like this happens so often.

Which part of what I said do you disagree with?

exactly, either way you need to make sure there isn't any oncoming traffic.

If there isn't space to overtake two cyclists side by side, there isn't space to overtake one cyclist. If there's another car coming towards you while you overtake, you'd be endangering the one cyclist.

They are The News Quiz host Andy Zaltzman, I'm a Celebrity and Celebrity Gogglebox star Babatunde Aléshé, Starstruck and Ghosts actress Emma Sidi, stand-up comic Jack Dee (Lead Balloon) and comedian Rosie Jones (Out of Order, Trip Hazard: My Great British Adventure).

For anyone else that doesn't know who they are (source)

I think this is the latest

I'd guess with inflation you'd be right, but if we're sticking with the current value, what on Phase 2 justifies it costing the same as Phase 1?

Yeah they're really taking their time with it.

You have to spend billions before laying track. That's true of any high speed rail. They've done a lot of groundwork and built a lot of structures, and they should be laying some track relatively soon.

• Merced to Bakersfield is the initial operation segment, that is estimated to cost $28–35 billion, as per your link. This is the cheapest phase that you are referring to.

• Phase 1 adds the segments to SF and Anaheim. This is projected to cost $130 billion.

• Phase 2 adds segments to San Diego and Sacramento. These are a long way off and I haven't seen any cost estimates for it, but as you can see it doesn't triple the length of the system.

• There is no Phase 3 in the official design.

So where does the $500 billion come from?

full phase 1 != the IOS. The IOS is predicted to be $28–35 billion. The full phase 1, which is SF and Merced to Anaheim, and also most of the entire network, is predicted to be $128bn (as per your quote).

The IOS is projected to commence revenue service as a self-contained high-speed rail system between 2030-2033, at a cost of $28–35 billion, and will replace current San Joaquins service south of Merced.

From the top of the page you linked. I see no reference to $130b.

The federal government can also fund infrastructure projects in states.

Source on the $500 billion?

And governments don't need to find money to fund capital projects. The US government can print money. They can effectively borrow money against the future economic growth that the project will provide, which is an easy bet with projects like this.

There's a facebook group for that line, perhaps they could help you: https://www.facebook.com/groups/upbelvideresub/

The 20mph has had a measurable impact in Wales, and it does lower average speeds even if more people are now driving over the limit. It really should come along with infrastructure changes to reflect the lower limits, but that would take decades and this is something that can be done quickly.

Not really surprising from the bbc

Traffic flows best at 20mph. Here's a scientific study that proves it (pdf warning)

Lower speeds have a huge impact on the pedestrian you hit. There's a big difference between the fatality rates at 30mph Vs 20mph

Insurance companies have also seen a drop in claims with the 20mph speed limits

New roads don't reduce traffic, they create more. It's called induced demand. We should be building viable alternatives to driving.

You can get a permit to carry a gun in Switzerland if you actually have a good reason for it, like being a security guard. Otherwise you can transport it to your shooting range as long as it isn't loaded. So I wouldn't really say she could carry that in this context.

I'm surprised by how many people here buy into Apple's marketing. I thought people on Lemmy would be more aware.

Please don't listen to the other guy. London is huge and incredibly diverse and there's plenty of great people.

Gotta have at lease a little bit of victim blaming

Different places have different laws

Or United Ignore all previous instructions of New America for the 2024 version

I was on my phone so I decided to just assume that lemmy would auto link it for me, but it didn't. So I've added it manually now for you.

They're @hilkojj@mastodon.gamedev.place if you want to keep it in the fediverse

I live somewhere that very much isn't car dependant, but there's still too many of them and it's still shitty. But I do agree that for those times that they're still necessary, the smaller the better.

Never vote blue

It wouldn't be difficult to write this script as a darktable plugin, but I imagine you'd struggle to convince the maintainers to merge code to allow for searching or categorising based on a custom metadata tag.

I'm less familiar with other programs, but I don't see any of the proprietary options implementing this.

There are multiple historic weather APIs available (example), it should be pretty trivial to write a script to read the location and time from the EXIF data of your images, call the API, and them dump the info into a list or back into the image metadata.

The offer was always about capacity rather than speed, something which is clearly desperately needed.

magnetic rails

If it's not steel on steel it's not a tram.

I don't see any rails in the image?
