"Say" - so... It means nothing to authoritarians. Do something about it or resign yourself.

NIMBY-ism means cities can't grow. The connection route is needed to make Pankow less of a bottleneck transit zone.
If they could add more bike parking to Pankow that would be very helpful. Maybe a Dutch style underground garage because right now it's just a pile of bikes that need storing!
Or at least get right wing death threats and have any security stripped away, followed by being doxxed by the head of the judicial branch and DOJ.
Way too spot on. The video "How to Radicalize a Normie" should be mandatory study in middle school... Then high school, then every year thereafter.
And who has been appointing, then bribing, the judges for the last 30 years....
Has Hamburg bought into the whole "KI driving transit will solve everything?" idea yet?
My city decided to not build any new real public transit, but back a freeway and start exploring self driving "call on demand" transit kinds of tech. It's going to be a huge mess and cost a lot, but at least we won't help anyone live frugally or improve the environment (that would be socialism)!
Apple isn't alone in that. More and more sites and programs are become space inefficient.
Not all of us have dual 36" ultra high rez monitors for you to waste the space with more and more area round every element. I know you're proud of your UI design skillz, but it's getting really ducking annoying.
I had to send in a screenshot of one Google page for editing contacts. 90% of the screen was fixed sized menus and the contacts photo. The last 10% was a tiny scrollbars box for editing a very long list of options. The devs responded basically "meh", though a few months later it adjusted to be a bit better. Do they ever test anything that's not on a huge screen before rolling to prod?
I don't know much about Poundland, but I know they're no liars about their advertising. Everything, including the business itself, went for a pound.
I salute them for their consistency!
Both very good points and grounded in reality, though my attitude is more about the general public being stupid more than the general public recognizing the limits of the roads or even the law.

The uptick in people leveraging the individual registrations is a canary in the coal mine. People want to have giant wasteful crap. At least some people do. If enough people start having big trucks and SUVs on the road, the demand to make allowances for them grows. Can you knock down the old Regensburg medieval city for SUVs? Unlikely. Can you start making more suburban style roads and land wasteful areas outside of the downtown? Most assuredly.
I'm hoping smarter and more reasonable heads prevail in the EU. I don't care what people want on this front. The car makers want to sell huge killing machines since they're higher profit per unit. There's at least some people wanting to buy them. The protection of pedestrians, the environment, and the city itself from terrible infrastructure designed to accommodate these trash machines should win out if at all possible.
PLEASE put a stop to insane car sizes. I'm from the US and our cars, SUVs, and trucks have gotten so huge it would be humorous if not for the thousands of extra children it's killing each year.
In the words of the Australian health minister: is it how the US is doing it? Don't do that.
Most are gone. T a combination of being zoned out and people being willing to drive 30 minutes to a big box store instead of walking 5 to a corner market nuked most of them.
I have a map of where they used to be in my city 100 years ago. (We do transit advocacy and need data on city history.) They used to be every 400m or so across the entire city, but now? Only a few remain.
According to one of our adjuncts: "Windows just works for dev, why are we teaching Linux at all?"
He didn't last.
