Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that the term "Jaywalking" was invented in the 1920s by the auto industry to shift the blame for accidents from drivers to pedestriansEnglish
3·2 months agoYou need to go farther back than that. The term jaywalking seems to have originated in Kansas City, MO. I have a feeling they were still just a little salty the Jayhawkers won.
Get used to it. Walking that much you will be buying shoes about every six months.

1·5 months agoThe cage looks shorter. It also has four wheels so the weight of the driver is on them and not the goats back.

Technology@lemmy.world•Google Fiber will be sold to private equity firm and merge with cable companyEnglish
1·6 months agoI call bullshit at least as far as Gfiber is concerned. I live in a multi family building. For mine they had to run it under a driveway, sidewalk, and fence. They didn’t touch any of them. Then when my neighbor had theirs installed they just had to go under the driveway. It wasn’t touched again but unfortunately they had cut my line. So they ran mine again and like the first time they didn’t touch any of the three. I don’t know if my other neighbors in the building have Gfiber or not as I was affected at all and they didn’t touch any of the three if they did get it installed.
