Yep, I'm really hoping it will lead to completion of the Greenway.

I'm mostly just happy that there is now a continuous bike route from Northside to downtown. We've had several partial routes for so long I was beginning to think they would never finish a single one. I had just taken to riding on the wide sidewalks along spring Grove.

Nah, 5th Street was always better. 3rd doesn't have shade or places to sit, so you're stuck with the official seating locations that are always full. On this span you have lots of hardscapes around the office buildings to sit and eat even if all of the official seating is taken. Plus shade from all the buildings. Including fountain square would be better, but I get why they don't want to stop streetcar operation for a festival. I think they should just expand to 6th as well and eliminate any over crowding concerns, and work with p&g to use their garden space officially.

It would be nice if they eventually reoriented the southern portion to a cycle track, seems to me it would help the wrong way biker problem I've seen in the bike lanes. I would assume you would do the same thing you do when you are turning left onto Marshall. A special light would be nice, but I would do one of two things depending on traffic: 1. Transfer into the car lanes and use the normal signals. 2. Pull into the crosswalk and follow the pedestrian signals.

I do think they are doing work on the lights there, so a special light may be coming.

The media creator runs perfectly in wine. But isos are easy to find as well.

I use batch renaming all the time, very little of it for programming. Media management, and general file organization are my most common uses. But there are plenty of third party free programs that let windows do this without the need for running python scripts.

I'm just happy it's over, the discourse around this issue has been infuriating. In fact, it's what made me decided not to attempt to continue using reddit after the 3rd party apps went away. I voted no and I'm happy it failed, but claiming it's some kind of huge win for democracy is asinine. There is nothing less democratic about the system issue 1 would have put in place, democracies don't need to be purely majority rule. But somehow we all found a way to take something as procedural as raising the requirement to pass an amendment 10% and requiring signatures from all counties (which I maintain would have hurt republicans more than democrats), and turn it into another life or death "most important issue in our lifetime". I'm done with this crap.

TBF I couldn't read very well when SMK came out so I don't really know if the game mags were trashing it.

.world has already become a shithole echo chamber. Good thing lemmy's technology can not really let it take over the platform as a whole like it did with reddit.

I've been liking .zip so far.

I'm so annoyed by all the "why isn't it another RPG?" Complaints in the video comments. Why would southpark lend itself only to the RPG genre? Does anyone complain that Mario kart isn't a platformer?

I'm not saying they won't try, just that it doesn't matter. They have no power here
