good luck getting past the immigration laws though

2017-11-23 13:53:14 UTC  

No need for car good public transport and good salaries

2017-11-23 13:54:58 UTC  

Well, that kind of depends on where you settle. Most cities are expensive to live in, and it's really only in those that you can live without a car.

2017-11-23 13:56:33 UTC  

Where I live, the busy mornings can cause the public transport to take almost an hour to get where you can go on a bicycle in 15 minutes.

2017-11-23 13:57:51 UTC  

I suppose some of this is caused by the fact that it's an old city that has been slow to upgrade its infrastructure

2017-11-23 13:59:43 UTC  

Which just goes to show, even the places championed as veritable paradise by certain politicians, has a great many things to be improved upon, for it to even be anywhere close to deserving of such a comparison.

2017-11-23 14:00:34 UTC  

or idk you could stop bitching about infrastructure and do that 15min bike ride

2017-11-23 14:02:00 UTC  

Not everyone commutes from the same place. Some people come from further away, and then get stuck in inner city traffic.

2017-11-23 14:02:40 UTC  

you dont have those bike storage things?

2017-11-23 14:02:52 UTC  

then you got the best of both worlds

2017-11-23 14:03:32 UTC  

Bike storage things?

2017-11-23 14:04:09 UTC  

There's plenty of places to put your bike, without fear of it being stolen, but that hasn't helped the traffic congestion.

2017-11-23 14:05:40 UTC  

what im talking about is some people mod shipping containers or similar to act as secure storage for people coming into the city from public transport

2017-11-23 14:06:24 UTC  

but that doesnt seem to be your problem.

2017-11-23 14:07:01 UTC  

feeling entitled to a city without traffic seems to be the issue. which i dont know in what world that will be a thing

2017-11-23 14:07:44 UTC  

to each their own tho i guess

2017-11-23 14:08:01 UTC  

it's not the people coming into the city from public transport that causes the problem. It's the people coming in with personal transport, that cause congestion. They can't take public transport because they live in areas with little to no connection to the city via public transport. They'd get no benefit from there being safe places to store their bikes (there already is)

2017-11-23 14:08:31 UTC  

nobody is feeling entitled, it was an observation on an area that can be improved upon. Do you know anything about the state of the infrastructure in the city I'm talking about?

2017-11-23 14:09:08 UTC  

tell me a city without traffic problems and ill show you an exception to the rule

there are varying degrees of traffic problems, the scale is not just "PROBLEMS - NO PROBLEMS"

2017-11-23 14:10:04 UTC  

i get that, but work around that shit

2017-11-23 14:10:06 UTC  

Its not no traffic they want, It’s no cars

2017-11-23 14:10:42 UTC  

I'm sure people are doing their best to work around it, but that doesn't mean you can't attempt to improve upon it, which is all I would ever suggest on the subject, really.

2017-11-23 14:10:45 UTC  

if other people are stupid and drive straight into the city centre then you be the guy who takes the train and bikes

2017-11-23 14:11:05 UTC  

yeah but thats just a truism

2017-11-23 14:11:20 UTC  

they don't have other options than to drive to the center, where the parking is available.

It is considerably easier for me to work in Denmark since my country is part of the EU

2017-11-23 14:12:12 UTC  

Lol who cares

2017-11-23 14:12:20 UTC  

It will work itself out in the end

2017-11-23 14:12:40 UTC  

I want NN to die so people stop whining about losing it

2017-11-23 14:12:53 UTC  

I don't particularly, since I'm not from teh USA

2017-11-23 14:13:03 UTC  

gumby people will never stop whining

2017-11-23 14:13:08 UTC  

the EU will fuck things up for me without me ever having a say, I'm sure.

2017-11-23 14:13:33 UTC  

Do it for Belgium for poor poor Belgium

2017-11-23 14:13:38 UTC
