i can’t speak for anyone else but the reason i write software is that i enjoy the /exercise/ of bringing a computer to life to accomplish something. i enjoy having a goal and figuring out the kind of program it takes to achieve it

This wheel is to the boy squirrel the way that the football is to Charlie Brown and it still makes me laugh every time he tries to use it only to be immediately spun.
Both have Portlands in them?

We visited the deepest subway station in North America...and for those who don't know where it is, the city may surprise you! youtu.be/CWQR57Q3lDk
I made that first tech-dif logo! Glad it's considered noteworthy!
any reason you went 🟡→60→105 instead of just taking the 105 the whole way from portland?
Your vancouver→vancouver speedrun

It's fitting that the 4th of July is celebrated with fireworks.
They sound quite like gun shots.
amtrak’s marketing team gets it
I hope you get some good rest on that bus!
“BxM4C” is a hell of a route “number”, takes up nearly half the headsign!
Friendly reminder that there's a SEGA arcade racer about driving an Ambulance that also lets you play as two people pulling a stretcher at 100 MPH
It's sad that horizontal scrolling is such an infrequently thought of method of navigation. I learned today that mpv uses it for seeking which is kinda funny, except it's really hard to input on a mouse (since you need to tilt the scrollwheel sideways).
The image is of a newsprint clipping from the Oregonian in Portland Oregon on 25th September 1938. The headline reads: 'nope,' he says body isn't his. GALILEE, R.

Train 113 + some SD660 train, on the Blue line to Gateway TC, at Pioneer Square South.
Train 233 (SD660), in its original 80s livery, on the green line to PSU. The photo is very horizontally blurry.
Bus 4033, on line 35R, somewhere in the transit mall.
Bus 4524 (Nova LFSA) on the FX2 line at Cleveland Ave. P&R. Another FX2 bus is right behind it.
Photo practice with a "new" (13 year old) phone camera.
updated davinci to version 20 and they changed a lot of features to be identical except now they have "ai" at the start of their name which is honestly funny as hell
Look I know we’re all supposed to be getting angry about AI action figures today, but I’ve just realised the word ‘Bus’ is an absolute fucking nonsense word.

@quacksire.dev your trimet routle forgot to add names for the max lines (also fx2 is in the wrong order on the list, it should be between lines 1 and 4. and a few lines are out of date now)
