omenmis@beehaw.orgto City Life@beehaw.org•From an urban planning perspective, what's the worst designed aspect of your city?English4·2 years agoi live in a majority sfh zoned streetcar suburb, however the area is majority walkable and not too awful for biking as a confident adult because of the grid roads for the walkable portion.
however, we are surrounded on all sides outside of this pocket of grid streets by poorly zoned sfh dominated by no sidewalk cul de sacs and 4 lane stroads with painted door zone bike lanes. the most notable areas are anywhere particularly north (rich people so literally no sidewalk) and near freeway interchanges. our south freeway interchange is the worst of them because its very stroady and has an auto dealership next to it. the others dont even try to pretend theyre not highway interchanges.

omenmis@beehaw.orgOPto City Life@beehaw.org•Is this the year California OKs speed cameras?English5·2 years agoi have good news because its not set at the speed limit but 11 over, so you only get the ticket for recklessly speeding. maybe the speed limits get lowered so people arent driving 55 next to sidewalks. is that really such a big deal?

yeah… there are a few places where reddit is really good though, like troubleshooting advice for computers and code. probably has to do with attracting a sizable chunk of those communities.
The pixel a series is pretty good IME (pixel 5a and 6a user). Don’t get a 5a though, horrible hardware issues on that thing.
