Comes down to enforcement since I think those license plate covers are already illegal

The funny thing is, density isn’t noisy. Go hang out anywhere in dense Capitol Hill in Seattle at any time of day and it’s completely quiet despite being the densest neighborhood in the state. These planners know this too

Exactly as much info as the original post. Except:
- this is more accessible
- has a link for people who want to read more
- has nothing to do with X

It's not worse, it's only better. What are you even arguing for here, that everyone keep posting screenshots forever?

Could link to the Bloomberg article. That's all the X screenshot is of, really, is a link to an article

You can just post the article directly. Don't need to screenshot a *link* to it

"You might not like it, but some folks need to bring their cars" is just such a Motte and Bailey.

We could spend 25 years without investing a single cent in roads for cars and people with cars would still be able to get to everywhere they can today just a tiny bit slower.

light rail has been so slow b/t sodo and symphony that it'd almost be faster to bike.

waiting with doors open for minutes at sodo. 5mph crawl from pioneer to symphony... what's going on.

Going to introduce the mosquito vehicle fleet act that requires all wheeled vehicles smaller than a bus but larger than a bike to be zero emission and built locally.

It’s official! We have changed our name to Rainier Valley Safe Streets as part of the rebranding of now Seattle Streets Alliance @sngreenways.bsky.social

This helps with past confusion (we don’t manage the city’s greenways program)

With a new name, our advocacy for safer streets for all continues

the drone would need a way to refill ammo, so it couldn't just stay up there forever.

I don't think the math works with the solar cell. that's a lot of weight with everything you're describing, and the solar cell would add a lot of drag too.

Computer tip #2: Get a 6" extension cord with a ground plug. (shop around, this one was $3 when i bought it.)

This keeps your big chunky power brick out of the way at coffee shops, and the ground helps it stay plugged in to airplane seat plugs.

Computer tip: get a little webcam cover (linked ones are $1.30 each!).

Not for privacy reasons, but just to keep fingerprints off of your web cam. Just like you'd put a lens cap on fancy camera lenses to keep them clean!
