The trees on our maps were feeling a little lonely after the grass got a glow-up, but now it's their turn! Take a look at their beauty coming to you live in update 0.2.0!
Mark your calendars: Stormgate update 0.2.0, featuring an early playable version of a new Vanguard co-op hero, will be released on December 19.
Then, we invite you to join us on December 20 for an r/Stormgate AMA with members of the Frost Giant dev team. More details to come.
It's -2 degrees fahrenheit outside. Snow has been on the ground for a month. My eyelashes freeze together on my commute.
Today Steam starts their "Autumn Sale"
@Clint_Davey1 It still functions like an old school forum, which remains my favorite sort of place on the Internet.
I have so many memories from growing up in forum communities that are sadly, all gone now. I'm glad to still have that feel on BGG
@HelloAxi I was really bothered by DQ. I was totally open to waiting to play you and I don't think it was a significant hold up on the bracket.
I figured you'd at least be able to come in through losers. I'd have made more noise if I thought it was a full DQ
@deadbeatregular My brother worked this. His CDL, history with snow removal, and living in Alaska all worked in his favor I think
Unfortunately he's not the best people person, pissed off his boss the first week, and was moved to the off shift for the rest of the hitch. Lonely job made lonelier
Conventional wisdom thinks of car traffic as a liquid, where adding capacity (ie. width) keeps it flowing. But in reality it acts more like a gas, where it expands to fill the amount of space available. And the only proven way to relieve congestion is to evaporate some of it...🧵
Here’s the truth.
If a politician claimed loudly that cigarette smoking was actually good for you, he might be popular with smokers, but he would still be 100% wrong and irresponsible.
That’s basically what Ford is doing.
Calling something “common sense“ doesn’t make a lie the truth.
Smart bike infrastructure mitigates traffic congestion. It allows more people to move in less space, with more choice, less public cost, fewer emissions, and less pollution. And it’s proven to provide an economic advantage for cities. It doesn’t cause congestion or make it worse. It keeps congestion from getting worse as we grow. That’s what all the evidence ACTUALLY shows. Designing car dependency makes traffic worse and more dangerous for everyone, including drivers.
I actually suspect Ford knows all that. But he doesn’t care. He wants you angry just like his brother did, and distracted from the traffic congestion that his awful decisions around sprawl and car dependency have actually induced.
I don’t know if it’s “common,” but it sure as hell is a fact.
In the Netherlands, they've used bus stop bypasses for decades. This is partially why the Dutch cycle 1,108km a year and the English cycle 97km a year.
The data on bus stop bypass safety is clear, which is why anti-bus stop bypass campaigners ignore it.
@StatisticUrban Need more colors for Alaska. We used to be 3 time zones and now we're all just the one. As if our extreme seasonal changes in light weren't enough, our timezone is way way way off for most of the population
And then Daylight Savings makes it worse!
