#KualaLumpur is a frustratingly annoying city from a #transit and #walkability perspective.
Perfectly nice, clean, on-schedule trains, lovely stations, surrounded by horrible connectivity and terrible pedestrian access. It's a system designed to fail, and there's no reason it should be this bad.
@ncoca Welcome to the pavements/sidewalks of Malaysia! Malaysia's development overly focuses on roads, to the extent that they forget pedestrians have legs and lives too, and need to walk. Maybe the politicians are enjoying their wealthy life in moneyland while we are all in poverty, and we are blamed for our poverty.

Animated xkcd 2347.
I originally made this after the backdooring attempt of the XZ Utils repo by some entity named Jia Tan was discovered, but without sound. Finally, it is available in stereo, headphones recommended.
Damned, the whole thing was discovered in march 2024! The relevance of this clip might be like a sine wave, hopefully not, but we'll see :P

#Israel struck several towns in south #Lebanon Thurs after urging residents to leave, marking an escalation in their near-daily strikes on the country.
The airstrikes came hours after #Hezbollah urged the Lebanese govt not to enter negotiations w/ Israel.
#IDF said it targeted #military #infrastructure for Hezbollah in the area. It accused the group of rebuilding its capabilities almost a year after a #US brokered #ceasefire went into effect that ended a monthslong war.

Deception Pass Bridge, WA in B&W
There are actually two bridges constructed between 1934-1935. Whidbey Island to the very small Pass Island, and from Pass Island to Fidalgo Island. this photo was taken underneath the south span from Whidbey Island.
