It sounds like your city does not prioritize trains at all

train was PACKED and spent 10m at every stop

add more wagons or increase frequency for example

then they hit a car

intersections with car traffic are always a problem and they should be minimized

train was every 10. Some days every 30, some days 2 in a row

i can bet the tracks share the same space with regular roads and signaling does not prioritize public transit, which usually leads to this sort of inconsistent schedule

that didn’t make it any easier

that's usually the excuse used to cut funding to public transit instead of the other way around: "see it doesnt work, why waste money on it". They never mention how it's been underfunded for decades, how cars are always prioritized, and the success cases seen all around the world where it works properly

does the train increase commerce in an area?

stations are usually prime real state for commerce and housing due to all the foot traffic it brings. Just look at stations in Japan, they are basically big shopping malls, without all the unnecessary parking, and high towers all around for housing

Just chill in the cabin with some chicken soup as much as needed, and comeback to your happily rambles whenever you feel like it. Btw, have you finished God of War by now?

How big is that? 100 m²?

I thought you needed one more lane, so we approved $600 million to fund highway widening while public transport continues underfunded:

It looks like it was taken from the tower in Crest, France, but I might be wrong

no idea what chemicals or minerals leach into that

That's why we have screens and first flush diverters on rainwater harvesters :)

Why not? Could it get deformed by the bike's weight?

zkproofs for the win!

Buenos Aires in Argentina already rolled out a decentralized digital id via zkSync on the Ethereum blockchain for their citizens, you basically have a zero knowledge proof that verifies who you are without revealing sensitive information. No more doxxing required

For those interested on how zkproofs work, it's all mathmagic:

Of course, public transport has a limit and we can root for both as well, including protected bike lanes even in the boonies like we successfully see in the Netherlands

 

This battlefield approach is likely to become a lasting part of Russian military practice, making it relevant for those preparing to counter Russian aggression

Root for better public transport and active cities instead of car dependency :)

Give them a free ride and cut a lane to convert it into a native climate resilience greenery in the city :)

Shows like HarmonQuest? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I just started watching it after seeing someone comment about it, and I really like it, but the show is so short that I'll probably be done by the end of the week

Does anyone have any other recommendations?

I have never actually played any ttrpg, but I got the itch now and I have to scratch it while I look for groups to actually play it

 

I forgot to feed a prisoner recently, which led to them going on berserk mode, so I'm trying to avoid more trouble. Is it possible to give a prisoner something for chemical hunger?

I had a pawn go to a random cell to smoke some smokeleafs, but I'm unable to figure out how to make them pick up any chemicals to drop to a prisoner

No mods, all DLCs

 

I'm only able to haul them to a shelf, where they keep decaying until they become a skeleton

I just had two man eating raccoons killed, one by a shot, another by a trap

I was able to butcher the one that was shot , got the leather and meat from it. Butcher table has bill to butcher forever

But the other one I can't do anything with it

I have another dozen skeletons on my shelves that might have had the same problem

no mods enable, just base games and all dlcs

First time playing this, so I'm still learning the ropes

 

I was planning a trip to the USA to visit their parks, which seem to be amazing, but due to recent daily shenanigans involving immigrants, I'll have to post pone the visit

With that in mind, I'm looking for alternatives, any recommendations? I have 30 days and I'd prefer to be limited to 1 airplane ticket if visiting more than one park in this period. Multiple train connections or other transport alternatives are fine

 

Does anyone know if anything changed with the new tab settings?

I used to have this custom userContent.css to add more columns to topSites described below, but it is no longer working after I updated :/

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1430289

folder named "chrome" and file named "userContent.css" are still there

@-moz-document url(about:home), url(about:newtab) {
  @media (min-width: 1800px) {
    .ds-outer-wrapper-breakpoint-override main {
      width: 1700px !important;
    }
  }
}

edit: If anyone has any suggestions to add more columns to topSites, let me know edit2: solved

 

Does anyone know how to make a dark background/toolbar for the pdf viewer?

The only answer I found was on reddit, but it was deleted

I dont remember how I did it with Firefox. pdfjs.viewerCssTheme no longer works

 

I think we'll need to add another section to the megathread

 

Did anyone else have any problems? It was working fine yesterday, but now it isn't, so I'm not sure if it is related to this version

Firefox Nightly 132.0b8 is working fine

edit: I should mention that I already restarted win11, restarted Firefox, tried under Firefox safe mode with extensions disable, but the problem persists
