Sydin posted:1. Nobody likes taking buses period. This is more or less true across all socio-economic dimensions. They're slow, they don't get you out of traffic (I mean, they *could* if everybody were using buses/carpooling, but...) and if they don't come on time it's a huge stress and can really gently caress over people working jobs where their arrival time is strictly monitored. Buses are essentially a last resort for anybody using our services. Of course we're because we have a deficit, this is the first thing we're cutting back. I miss the bus-only lanes on the highway when I lived in stockholm, cutting my commute in at least half over what a car took in rush hour.

Luckily, datacenters generate a ton of heat so we could use bitcoin miners and cat gifs to make drinking water if we really wanted to

Sydin posted:Or you know, Vox could have just hired them all on as full time employees with benefits like they deserve to be, and still made money hand over fist because paying for those people is a drop in the loving bucket for a gigantic media conglomerate. Vox is owned (in part) by SkyNBCUniversalComcast so it's not like they couldn't just hire the writers if they wanted to.

ProperGanderPusher posted:I always call myself a San Franciscan abroad, because identifying as a Californian invites lame jokes about how I probably surf to work and go to Disneyland every weekend. I got one guy start earnestly asking how they can get in on some sweet Silicon Valley VC capital for their business idea, but everyone laughed at him for it, including me. I ran in to someone when I was in Sweden, who started off claiming they were from the bay area. To which I responded "Oh yeah? Me too" to make conversation "Actually i'm more from like Napa, where in the bay are you from?" "SF" "Ah... well I'm from Redding" like what

Highbrow Slick posted:I drive through Placerville a couple times a year to/from Tahoe. What amazes me is how few roads appear to go in or out of Placerville. The 50 comes to an absolute crawl there no matter what traffic is like in the surrounding area. To the point where the last time up I just took the winding roads of 49/88 to avoid as much of it as I could. The traffic light certainly doesn't loving help, but i imagine it's because there's no space to put in on/offramps to main street from 50

cheese posted:Sounds like LA is loving up, Bay Area (at least south bay) is taking it seriously. Got on the freeway this morning at 11am and you could have landed a plane on it there were so few cars. It was like zombie apocalypse levels of empty. Guess it helps that its been raining off and on the past week. Went for a long walk in a park and pretty much everyone was giving each other wide berths, including stepping off the sidewalk or the trail to let someone pass. Good job. Yesterday Rodeo beach out in the headlands was packed to the gills tho

CMYK BLYAT! posted:Who are all you people with these slightly okay landlords. My landlord is a mexican family that owns a few properties (prob under 10), but none of them live in my building (6 units in the mission). The handyman fixes stuff on time and when our dishwasher broke they during the pandemic they were very chill with us getting the dishwasher we wanted instead of the cheapest GE poo poo they had initially put there. Absolutely no issues putting in Monkeybrains in our unit (in fact, there was already an antenna on the roof). Our lease is short and says absolutely nothing compared to the one I had with a corporate management company before, i'm pretty sure I could move a load-bearing wall with this lease. The DMV asked my partner "so where's the rest of the lease" when she needed to prove her address, that's how thin it is.
