That's how flights to Chicago normally end up working.

Boo this man! Coke doesn't offer anything better than their Pepsi counterparts, except for coke zero. I'd rather them switch to RC.

This doesn't go far enough. More of these smaller streets need to be converted to pedestrian/bus only roads. Leave the major routes to the cars, funnel them straight to high capacity garages.

Personally, I think the BRT was the right move (even if they kneecapped it's usefulness as a commuter line by not extending the reading line up to GE). A quick and cheap way to make our transit exponentially faster and serve people better. I'm hopeful it can get through the bus stigma, and if it proves popular those routes will be prime candidates for light rail conversion. Expansion of the streetcar though? It still just feels like a novelty unless it actually goes somewhere. Make it connect park and ride stations to destinations across the city. Give it it's own right of way or at the very least absolute signal priority (except for emergency services). Elevate it, or run it subgrade where necessary to keep its speed up. Having ridden the current iteration a ton, it seems like the ride from camp washington to the banks would take around 45 minutes, which is not even competitive with the bus.

Most of the routes seem ridiculous to me. Uptown is the obvious choice for ridership due to UC. The NKY routes would have high ridership, but the actual path they have laid out makes no sense. All the other ones are a play for neighborhood improvement not ridership. Though the camp washington one could get a ton of ridership if it was extended to the Northside Transit center, this would tap into a huge park and ride resource, and the highest traffic bus stop in the city.

It seems like every other Transit plan in the city, it's built around a few peoples preferences rather than looking at our transit system wholisticly.

The only people that want apple to open up iMessage are apple fanbois that are too cheap to buy an iPhone. Everyone else just wants apple to support rcs. It's a better standard anyway.

Humble monk has DND at 1 every Sunday. I believe it is dropin friendly.

Another so called "economics think-tank" that thinks [consumer price]-[raw material cost]=[profit]. They are just ingnoring all of the other variables in equation. P&G (their biggest example) laid off a huge percentage of their workforce during the pandemic and increased the price of the products. Now they are nearly back at 100% of their workforce but everyone is being paid more. It ends up being a wash for consumers at that point. That's not even including cost of energy, cost of machine maintenance, and all of the other little things that have increased over the last few years. Nonsense.

Why are we making two sports districts? It's already bad enough that the FC stadium isn't on the river.

To add to what curve already recommended: Sleepy bee for breakfast, and street food galore at the Findlay market. The streetcar is free so she can ride it as much as she pleases. I also like Moxy and collective espresso for coffee shops in the downtown/otr area.

I think Columbus is probably in a good position, but I would definitely put Dayton and Toledo above Youngstown.

The fact that Youngstown is second makes me question the validity of the list.

The OLED seems to be more of a power consumption upgrade. The resolution is the same. Sure you will get more color depth with the OLED but it probably isn't worth the upgrade if you already have a deck. If they offer the new screen as an after market upgrade that may be worth it. But I'm the meantime the deck HD has a higher resolution.

Real sad, I loved this place.

Yeah, that backlog exists because funds aren't managed well. I see no reason why the railroad money would be any different.

What ever happened to the Northside one? That was like 20 years of nothing

The Hopple street viaduct is the part that crosses the train yard, not the bridge crossing 75. That bridge was replaced in the early 2010s.

Not sure if it's right, but it seems to me this is really just a bunch of preconfigured fedora instances for specific use cases with containerized packages you can mix and match to your needs. Then they slap on a bunch of buzz words to make it sound novel.

That was always Gabe's intention with SteamOS when it came out around a decade ago. He has never really liked windows, and definitely never liked the potential for Microsoft to mess with his product. SteamOS was made from the ground up to supplant windows as the primary gamer OS, we are just now witnessing the turning of the tide.

Does that keyboard fit in the case while closed? I don't need a keyboard with the deck often, but it would be nice to have one with it all the time for that off chance I do. The times I need a keyboard I really need a keyboard.
