i dont know where the idea a covering for a vehicle is obligatory even comes from, theres not much of a rule to provide parking period, nevermind covered

You ever had to clear snow off your car before work? It sucks

[–] very_poggers_gay@hexbear.net 15 points 6 months ago (2 children)

if you're able-bodied and have a $10 brush or scraper, you can clear a car in like 5 minutes or less. it's even a bit fun.

Many Canadians are doing this trump-yassified

Unless it rained before it started to snow so you have a nice layer of ice under the snow. Covered parking is just way nicer if you have a car.

Yeah, that's valid. For me, it's like 90% of my life was spent in a place where we had to clear our cars of snow and ice as they warmed up for most days for 3 to 4 months of the year, so it never felt that wrong. Covered parking was never even on our radar tbh, but I can see how yucky it would be if it wasn't the usual

Fun?! Nah, fuck that

[–] Dolores@hexbear.net 8 points 6 months ago

that's how i know developers don't really give a shit about it. this scheme compromises so much for a thing the competition knows ain't much of a selling point

people don't like getting rained on when they gotta take stuff in or outside

[–] Dolores@hexbear.net 8 points 6 months ago

but we'll tolerate it for basic accomidation, which is seriously bungled by this 'conveinience' scheme

I don't even cover my motorcycle every time I park it much less my car lmao.
