City Forces Bus Benches to be Removed (wgme.com)
 

The donated handmade wooden benches are not ADA compliant so the city is forcing the builder to remove them. So having literally nothing is the alternative. Also the city says the builder can put the benches in their parks, but wouldn’t that also need to be ADA compliant?

Cars are a gas (urbanists.social)

"We assume that car use is an incompressible liquid that must be routed somewhere. But it’s more like a gas that fills whatever space it is given.”

—Ian Lockwood, transport planner.

Voting Rights Petition Rejected Again by Ohio Attorney General (news.yahoo.com)

Rejected because of the title of the petition

Yost found the amendment's title — “Ohio Voters Bill of Rights” — was “highly misleading and misrepresentative” of the measure's contents, even as he acknowledged that his office had previously certified identical language. It certified a Nursing Facility Patients’ Bill of Rights in 2021 and another Ohio Voters Bill of Rights in 2014.

2% of kids and 7% of adults have gotten the new COVID shots, US data show in c/news@lemmy.world
[–] HallowellNash@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Wife and I got our boosters a few days ago, and had no issues other than a little soreness the next day. I do think that the pharmacies and doctors aren't promoting it like they have done before. Not even a sign up at our pharmacy that the Covid booster was available. They advertise the Flu shot, but not Covid.

I mean was it like a really good Memphis BBQ sandwich and a fancy certificate? Can't be too quick to judge these things you know.

I’m old enough to remember the episode the movie was based on.

The install program calls it Vger.app so I renamed it on my phone Vger in homage to the old Star Trek episode. Seems like a better name anyway.

Pixelfed is adding a Sign In with Mastodon option in c/fediverse@kbin.social
[–] HallowellNash@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Seems like maybe I’ve accidentally done it right by having a separate log in to both my Mastodon insurance and my Pixelfed instance. I always wonder if Federation means I should have one log in across all the Fediverse, but seems like maybe not.
