I have nothing more to add to this meme so I will make random transit vehicle noises:
beep beep
höoooooooonk
ding, ding, ding, ding, ding
“Bing-bong! Lllladies and gentlemen: the next A train is now arriving on the Brooklyn-bound track. Please send back from the platform edge as the train enters the station.”
[WOOOOOOSH! CLACK-CLAK! CLACK-CLAK! CLACK-CLAK! CLACK-CLAK! CLACK-CLAK!]
Impressive, you shoukd try YiffOS
wtf is Jay Foreman doing there 😂
Map men, map men, map map map men men. Men.
Every video of theirs is genuinely a treat
Needed a Brit with a skeptical expression for the meme.
BTW?
Back To Work?
Bike Train Walk?
Bisexual Trans Woman?(They use Arch,) by the way.
Can I borrow some of your time to speak to you about our lord's OS, the universal OS, Debian?
I thought that was fucking hilarious
I'm the latter 2
Top right one confuses me. Incliment weather does significantly affect bikes but trains and buses are actually better at operating in incliment weather than cars. Here in Vancouver as soon as it snows (which it just did) everyone seem to get too scared to drive and pile onto public transit, but surprise surprise it can't cope with the sudden spike in demand because we're still a car dominated hellhole for the other 364 days of the year and our transit agency gets peanuts in funding compared to private car infrastructure.
I thought the 'cold rainy night in Stoke' meme was fairly well-known, but it seems multiple people are not getting it. It is basically asking if a tried and tested method / person can do this one very specific (and relatively easy) thing. Here's the origin story if you are interested.
As someone who's been out on a cold rainy night in Stoke with my bike I'll have to say that it does actually work.
Damn, I got whooooshed?
hold up
where is that Socrates image from?
Can i have a full sized copy?
when did he say the body thing? and why would anyone attribute a quote to Socrates instead of Plato? Socrates never wrote anything
The quote is (abridged) from Xenophon's Memorabilia, as LordAmplifier explained above. The image was generated by StableDiffusion based on the prompt 'Socrates driving a cycle'. I can add the full image later.
thank you!

Can i have a full sized copy?
I found the same quote in an old reddit thread, where someone provides Memorabilia, a book written by a guy called Xenophon of Athens, who was a student of Socrates, as a possible sauce:
3.12.8 “Besides, it is a disgrace to grow old through sheer carelessness before seeing what manner of man you may become by developing your bodily strength and beauty to their highest limit. But you cannot see that, if you are careless; for it will not come of its own accord."
Archive link to the relevant chapter because the original University of Chicago link is dead.
According to this Wikipedia article, the book is a collection of Socratic dialogues, so it's not a collection of quotes. Book 3, where this particular quote comes from, is about Socrates giving advice to his family and friends, so I guess Xenophon claims that it is an authentic quote, but I don't know if there's a way to verify that.
Wow! A rare Xenophon quote?? That's awesome. Thank you. It sounds like something Socrates might have discussed but I couldn't think of which Platonic dialog it came from. I guess that explains it.
Oh hey that's Jay Foreman on the top right! He does lots of good stuff like Map Men and Unfinished London (and definitely pro public transport)
I know, I just needed an incredulous Brit for the Stoke joke.
I read this as a political 4-axis chart and this fits.
Would that make Arch users politically right? I don't think they would agree.
I use (an) Arch (based distro) btw
That was unintentional, but yes it fits.
By the way anime penguin?
That's Arch-chan, an unofficial mascot for Arch Linux created by raviolimavioli
Ty sir
Bottom right is CyanNyan, VTuber, now part of the VTuber coop NullPtrLive. (not yet joined vt.social unfortunately)
Actually its Arch-chan, an OC by u/raviolimavioli008 on reddit. It depicts a arch (a linux distribution) as an anime girl
I wonder why the bus number on the Singapore bus has been replaced with some other random number.
So we don't dox the bus.
How does any group dox a bus route number? I get it if it was a single bus and hiding registration number of the bus, but it's a route with dozens of bus operating on that route. How would doxxing even working..... Eyyy you drive route XXX in Singapore... You should prolly delete existence?
Sounds far fetched.

Where is the guy who is obviously screaming at the library computer because someone told them they have a driver's licence
