Looking over the NE 130th St Light Rail station, which is scheduled to open in two years.

In Lynnwood.
On the train.
Link light rail has arrived. Next stop: Northgate for Watershed Pub and a late lunch.

Gestern habe ich eine Testfahrt mit einem S-Pedelec von #Stromer gemacht. Getestetes Modell: Stromer #ST5 mit Kette, ABS und 983 Wh Akku von stromvelo.ch. (Ich wollte eigentlich den #ST3 testen, aber der war gerade nicht verfügbar.)

Gefahrene Route: Einmal um den oberen Zürichsee, mit Abstecher auf den Etzel (durchschnittliche Steigung 11%, maximale Steigung fast 16%). Total 54 km, 850 hm.

Hey Seattle Transit Friends

Once again, there's corpo-political BS going on with light rail. Seems that under some Amazon influence, the ST board is aiming to go against their own staff recommendations for the CID station location. Apparently, Amazon is concerned about their drivers being slowed down by construction. Screw that!

Do the thing. Click the link and send the letter to tell them to do the right thing here.

This was an important vote. Thanks to @SeattleSubway and @KccClaudia for your work to get this in!

Balducci's amendment to add 4th Avenue Shallower (~45 feet) to the study passed on a 10-6 vote. #ST3 #CIDstation

Kudos to @SeattleSubway for raising this idea. https://www.theurbanist.org/2023/02/21/sound-transit-must-commit-to-a-shallower-4th-avenue-cid-station/

That was definitely notable

A little newslet - After a long time neutral or distant from the debate, Uwajimaya just endorsed the Union Station/4th Ave. S #ST3 station site based on "better connectivity" in the area.

New on NPI's Cascadia Advocate: Seattle voters love ST3’s Ballard and West Seattle light rail extensions, but will they love the alignment Sound Transit’s board picks? | #ST3

And tomorrow is supposed to be decision day

A new #ST3 option by @KccClaudia and @wsdot sec'y Roger Millar. It keeps existing International District/Chinatown Station connected to the region; Ballard and West Seattle riders would do the train-switching, off the Brown Line at Westlake and Sodo.

We could probably save even more money on our subway system if we designed it to accommodate zero ridership. 🤔 #leadership #ST3 #vision

I have no idea when I actually produced “First Techno Attempt” as the date on the file says December 2nd 1997, which is wrong as by then I had produced a lot of songs that I would have considered to be “techno”.

I believe I mostly completed this late in 1995 and only added the choir intro in 1996, which explains signing the song as PoC, because while I created this song originally, I still went by the handle “PCi”.

To best fit with the chronology and development of my music abilities, I therefore date “First Techno Attempt” to November 28th 1995.

Regarding the song’s title, please don’t mind that the song isn’t in the “techno” genre by any stretch of the imagination. To me and most of my friends back in the mid 1990’s, “techno” was just a synonym for “electronic music”.

I remember being quite happy about this song back when I produced it, and I quite like it to this day as well.

Sound Transit keep refining light rail options for Interbay and Ballard. @RayDubicki@twitter.com breaks down the tweaks. #ST3 #BallardLink https://www.theurbanist.org/2023/01/20/savings-and-nonstarters-found-in-ballard-interbay-light-rail-revisions/

Sound Transit leadership have told NPI that it's not a competition and they're trying to figure out how to inaugurate service to both the north and east as soon as possible. The West Seattle line is part of #ST3 and the agency cannot legally prioritize it above any #ST2 project.

This unconventional 3-channel chiptune was created with Scream Tracker 3 in February 1996. Shared and published, not for pride, but for brevity.

In this happy S3M produced in late January 1996, I used more chip-sounding samples again. Combined with the limit of 3 channels (just like on the C64), and sizing in at less than 9 kB, I think "Stop The Violence!" properly qualifies as a chip-tune.

Genuine #seattle transportation question, with the new #ST3 plan slllooowwwllly making progress, is there a #SDOT plan for connecting these new station to #BikeLanes and safe #pedestrian corridors?

Maybe @Spottnik knows 👀 (unfortunately SDOT doesn’t have an account here yet 😭)

RT @MikeLindblom@twitter.com

Update on #ST3 - board members pessimistic about a prompt deal on Postal Service parking garage land they wanted, to create a bigger Sodo Station. Staff found workarounds to use neighboring lands, yet still avoid harming Pacific Iron & Metal's yard and ops along 4th Ave. S.
