I have eaten whole meals (20+ minute) at Doc Browns in the amount of time pedestrians have spent trying to cross this section of Smokey Park Hwy. It's a hell-hole nightmare for cyclists and pedestrians with no safe place to travel. What gives, Asheville? There's no consistent sidewalks, no break down lane, no cement medians, no cross walks, no trees...

I heard they'll be doing some mysterious road work on the nearby exit 44 soon? Here's my idea: add another Candler exit further down Hwy 40, and make Smokey Park Hwy 2 lanes instead of 5. I promise people's helter-skelter driving will tone down if they can't careen out of a parking lot and drive down the middle turning lane for miles until deciding to finally merge.

What do y'all think? How would you improve this terrible road?

Lemmy, a few minutes ago I tried to change my notification settings for a website, but it was not possible using Gmail:

From my phone email inbox I clicked the link to unsubscribe. This opens the website, but via the gmail app. To sign into the website, they sent a single-use sign in code to my email... which I can't access because I'm using the email app to view the website. If I exit the website to view the new email containing the code, then I will lose my place on the site and need a new code sent to sign in. Thus an unresolvable loop.

Is this an asinine gmail issue, or am I an idiot? Please advise. I have ended up staying subscribed to several extremely annoying websites because of this bug/tactic.

Hi all,

I'm attempting to change careers into landscape design/architecture, but I'm struggling to gain professional experience.

I've applied to 4 different job in the field, interviewed at one, but haven't had enough "professional experience" to land any of the jobs. Any tips on how to proceed? I was thinking about keeping my current job while also trying freelance for very nominal pay, but I'm not really sure how to go about that either.

For background, I've been at my current (unrelated) job for 6 years, took a community college class on AutoCAD, did a planting plan for a friend, and put together a portfolio (work in CAD, Photoshop, SketchUp, and physical media). I have some experience with plant nurseries, and a degree in biology. An in-person college architecture program is not option due to distance and expense, and I can't find any online programs. My portfolio gets compliments, but I seem to need more drafting experience.

Hi all,

I've had a 3a for some years now, and I like almost everything about the phone (though I sincerely wish they'd used more durable glass, holy canoli). However, the battery has started to fail, and I was wondering if it's worth replacing? It would cost about 80 USD to have it professionally replaced.

I know the device is no longer supported by Google, but I was thinking of running GrapheneOS instead of Android, anyway.

Any thoughts or insights? I'm far from a genius when it comes to cell phones, so I'd appreciate anything you have to say.

Thanks!
