A what mile range?

(I'm sorry)

Say that to my three CRTs. I was born in 2003.

I want you--a random individual--to go on stage, and tell the country that just elected Donald Trump to make cities walkable.

Have a ball.

DDIs are the best we have right now. At the very least, the conservative nutjobs in my city don't detest them to hell.. much. They can be scaled down, and single lane versions would be perfectly acceptable in a walkable city.

I'm analysing my local interchanges, and the DDI still appears the safest large intersection in my entire city for pedestrians and cyclers. Add barriers that stupid Americans seem all too eager to detest, and you've still got something far safer than anything else available. Make the interchange single-lane at that, and it integrates nicely with a hypothetical walkable city.

I just don't see how it's more dangerous than standard intersections for others. Bicycles still ride the same path that the cars do, and pedestrians needn't worry about right turns on red.

This is a trivial matter compared to the entire rest of the city.

I live in an area with a diverving diamond. I've never heard of any collision there. That's unlike our local mall entrance shitshow, which has a major accident every other day.

I explicitly said I'm anti-car (read: I'm aware they're car-centric). The rest of this is either outright false, or isn't solved more effectively by any car-centric alternative.

Diverging diamonds are among the best interchanges in existence. That doesn't mean they're great, but they solve far more problems than they introduce.

Please direct your weapons where they actually matter--asphalt itself.

I support a car ban, but these are actually very well designed.

By far, the feature I most sorely miss in Linux compared to macOS is Quick Look. Press the space bar, see file contents. Use the arrow keys, view different files. Simple, quick, and WAY faster than opening an entire app every single time I want to check the contents of a file. I also miss the column view in conjunction with arrow keys (I’m VERY keyboard-centric, I liked being able to navigate everything with only a keyboard), but that’s less important, and probably has an easy analogue.

Most of the discussions about this that I found are older than I am (hyperbole), and I found a bunch of dead projects last updated years ago. I also found that GNOME apparently has a feature like Quick Look, but that would involve using GNOME.

I’m running Debian 12 with Plasma 5 (Does Plasma 6 have anything?) Is there any way to restore this functionality? I intend for this to be more of a master thread that anyone can visit to get help on the matter, as I’m sure I’m not the only Linux user who loves Quick Look.

Any suggestions or just talk is very appreciated.
