austin, to fuckcars in [meta][discussion] Rules for this Community

Our goal is to peacefully encourage more people to cycle and convince car owners to use their car for less trips when viable to do so. A lot of people own cars, would calling them Nazis really help our cause?

My vision is we make cyclists and public transit users look like responsible happy citizens and attract jealousy of those stuck in traffic.

austin, to australia in ‘Tragic and unnecessary’: Truck driver didn’t see cyclist hit and killed

Obviously weren’t paying much attention and took it as a free holiday. Much like the attention they pay on the roads in their big SUVs.

austin, to australia in Fewer of us are cycling – here's how we can reverse the decline

The ACT has done a fantastic job in this field. If you’re a commuter you’ll rarely find yourself on a road, and if you do it will most likely have a permanent bike lane (no parked cars in sight)

Sure, if you’re more of an adventurous cyclist like me and do more advanced rural cycling, you might end up on some roads (eg. when riding to Queanbeyan) but even that route has a bike lane.

Shame that Adelaide, the “cycling capital” because of the Tour Down Under, has terrible bike infrastructure and timed bike lanes so people are allowed to park in them off-peak.

austin, to asklemmy in How do you deal with being broke?

If you can, move back in with your parents

austin, to asklemmy in What's with telling YEARLY salaries?

I know people who make 50k per month and don’t have jets. I make 30k p/m but I’ll get there one day. It’s crazy how when I was broke making $20/hour in a cafe that I thought everyone or most people are broke but now I’m making modest money it’s crazy how many other entrepreneurs are in my circle now. Just wow.

austin, to softwaregore in Not good enough for 100%

Looks like a floating point error

Too wholesome

austin, to memes in I don't know why I love it so much, but I do.

Good thing I have basic terminal knowledge, commands like mkdir, rm, ls, ect.

And my system is just a media server with plenty of snapshots to backup with

Terminal makes things easy. I used to prefer gui, but now I just use terminal and ChatGPT because doing anything can simply be a matter of copy paste commands into the terminal from AI instead of having to research and/or navigate through settings menus to find the right setting.

austin, to fuckcars in 2 bicycle riders hit by suspected impaired driver in Lenexa

By putting bicycle at the start of the news article, it makes the topic about bike riders instead of the topic being about bad driving.

See the impression titles give, just by the ordering of the words:

“Bicycle riders hit by car” - cycling is dangerous and don’t belong on the road

“Car hits bicycle riders” - how sad, poor cyclists, irresponsible driver

austin, to simpsonsshitposting in X, where nothing can possib-lie go wrong!

What was the original Simpsons screenshot? I want to know what those signs originally said.

Who uses a mouse? I function all applications with just a keyboard, my custom arch based distribution doesn’t even support mice because I removed all drivers from the kernel. /s

austin, to chatgpt in Inconsistent request refusals? Any tips?

austin, to politicalmemes in Enlightened centrist knows both sides are to blame

NAH. White men only harassed black men when they were first living amongst each other. Still happens today with old people that grew up in white circles, but they’re dying out. The real reason we had racism is because before the 1800s, black people lived in Africa and white people lived in Europe. When globalism and more travel happened, some met, but it was a lot rarer to see travellers back then. So when the US was founded, people from all around the world flocked and first lived together which lead to a lot of culture shock and some disgusting negative stereotypes. The simple act of white men and black men living in the same country was enough to slowly eliminate racism. And it’s pretty much completely gone in today’s society.

…it is illegal. I don’t know why you’re making it seem like there’s a death penalty for it. It’s not Saudi Arabia, you’re chillin’.
