The age of barges has begun. Humanity has a new enemy.
First the great emu war and now this
"Begun the Barge Wars have." -Yoda or some dude named Scott in a Yoda voice.
Go to the Degobah system. Seek Scott.
I imagine minor bridge collisions are quite common.
French here, yeah it kinda is. Or at least it's rare but not exceptional I guess, at least for fluvial transport (barges and other similar types of ships)
It's usually not that bad, and at most requires some reinforcement of the bridge, or at least the removal of some parts of the ship that were embedded in the bridge example here in France.
The parentheses are causing a problem with the link, either remove them or put [some text] before them. link
Woops yeah, fixed it. I think some spacing between the parenthesis and the link would have also worked
Must be client specific. It's fine on Voyager.
If another bridge collapsed from a collision this soon after the FSK bridge, id be sus
But yeah, this is just a "fender bender" it seems
This is likely an "abundance of caution" thing.
Is this what we're doing to get our bridges fixed? We're throwing boats at them?
Did anyone try just drawing very large penises on them? Works for potholes.
I'm sure some right winger is going to refer to Salisaw mayor Ernie Martens as a DEI mayor over this. /s
