"Plano, Texas, of all places" is perversely amusing to me because that's in the 4th largest metropolitan area in the country.

In two days?
O.o

Look no new colliders until you deliver us those supersymmetry particles you promised us

LHC decay anomaly reveals possible crack in the Standard Model Recent findings from research we have been carrying out at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern in Geneva suggest that we might be closing in on signs of undiscovered physics.

Particle physicists coyly teasing us with beyond the standard model physics again smh 🙄

Sounds like it's going to be less shit than the Xpress commuter buses, so there's that.

Actually sounds like it's going to be more BRT than the Flatiron Flyer is.

MARTA's part of the project

BRT gets to use the express lanes. I believe In-line stations are also planned.

It's on the website.

Where the suspiciously wealthy furs at...

I am reminded of the Kodak cryptominer

Play the game right & you might be able to get I-290 / Forest Park Branch rebuild money out of this.

I will again point out that the GA400 project they highlight includes a BRT component.

I don't count him as an astronaut, but an FAI definition is an FAI definition.

The US Spends More Time and Money Building Transit Than Most Countries. Inefficient Community Engagement May Help Explain Why. Public participation remains essential, and policymakers can take steps to ensure engagement processes reflect the entire community’s needs without increasin…

Transit construction costs in the US keep rising, and projects keep taking longer and longer to build.

One possible explanation? Ineffective, inefficient community engagement processes, we argue @urbaninstitute.bsky.social ⏬

I mean that kinda already happened & There Was Discourse.

*Shrugs*
Private contractors are generally going to be involved in a major project at some point.

FWIW, their example project is GA400, which is going to include BRT.

So that GA400 project they highlight also incorporates BRT components; this might not exclude mass transit.

I'm idly curious if Tesla FSD shits itself on Lower Wacker.

They... had banners printed for this?

That means we each get to take it out for a joy ride for like 5 minutes, right?

Just stuff food under your clothes like a normal person 🙄

As I understand it this has to clear NEPA

So get your lawsuits ready.

B-Bruh...
😳

That's sort of what I was thinking, yeah

Would you be able to see it on infrared? There's a double hull in the way, is there not?

You can... disable a ship like that in practice?

*Tries removing Adobe's remove reflection tool out of curiosity*

Aaaaaaaaaand there it is.
Nope.

One of my favorite factoids that demonstrates the limits of ideological analysis:

Charging Bull was one artist's passion project, initially installed illegally.

Fearless Girl was an advertisement for a finance company.
