minus-square@Wolf@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglish14•edit-210 days agoEven if done in a car in areas where a e-bike isn’t really feasible, they usually take several orders at at time. I think 1 car picking up and delivering 3 orders is probably slightly more efficient than each person driving to the restaurant.
minus-square@okamiueru@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish0•10 days ago slightly more efficient that each person driving to the restaurant Of course. But the correct solution here doesn’t require any individuals driving.
minus-square@enbipanic@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglish3•10 days agoAre you implying a solution to delivery? Or that no one should eat (in or out) at restaurants?
minus-square@SkunkWorkz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish2•10 days agoIt’s quite telling that they didn’t think of walking or cycling
minus-square@remon@ani.sociallinkfedilinkEnglish2•10 days agoHow does that fix food delivery? Are you only supposed to order from the restaurant around the corner?
minus-square@noli@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglish1•10 days agoProbably my personal bias, I have 5 different places I could get food from within 15 minutes walking. Closer to 20 when taking a bike. When I visited the US I was gobsmacked by literally everything being a 30min walk at least, even in more densely populated areas
minus-square@remon@ani.sociallinkfedilinkEnglish0•edit-210 days ago I have 5 different places I could get food from within 15 minutes walking. Right, not exactly a lot of variation. It only really becomes viable once you add the bike back in. So while a walk-able city is a great idea in general, it does nothing for this particular issue.
