I very much agree… the optimal way to ride a fast bike or e-bike on a stroad with a painted symbol is much different than how to ride on a thin shared path and it’s not always intuitively for riders to switch gears mentally. If needing to navigate around pedestrians, cyclists should be going 5-7 mph. (8-10km).

I think your average Linux user does want to give game creators their fair share. But they would like to withhold from those that take away from others.

I more or less stopped pirating games after moving my PC to Linux full time.

My takeaway from all this is that John Maynard Keynes’ concept of money velocity is correct, except this time it’s companies of one industry whipping money and future promises of money back and forth to each other.

It’s 7. Barger was this close to letting the Jays come back to extra innings or a walkoff.

Still no confirmation from the PMO but if anything, it might have been just a Canadian ‘sorry’ in the ‘excuse me’ sense.

Many files copied to an external disk are cached, and not written immediately unless you run the “sync” command.

So when you press the “eject” icon, on most frontends a notification will tell you not to unplug it right away, once the write is complete it will send a “it is safe to remove the drive” message. This can take a couple minutes if you are writing a big file to a slow drive.

It doesn’t seem to occur to people that adding a comprehensive bike lane, gets fewer people “in their car’s way”, since more people feel safe to switch to cycling and walking.

If the next The Hunger Games prequel needs more filming locations for Panem, this gaudy-ass bathroom would fit right in.

You have a point, but to be faaaaaair, the quote is attributed to Benjamin Franklin about fire prevention in Pennsylvania towns.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Perhaps we forgot that after changing to grams and kilograms.

There were backdoor issues with CALEA, so rather than eliminating the requirement for backdoors, let’s instead leave all the windows and doors wide open. Sounds good. Again. We’ll end cybercrime in the USA by not tracking how often it happens anymore. That’s how this works, right?

The NDP’s Heather McPherson has said on CBC P&P that their caucus will evaluate the bill when it becomes public. That seems like the correct attitude rather than making rash decisions on rumours alone.

Let the poors eat cake.

I can say this much, this time and in 2016, America didn’t elect a leader, but they elected a distilled extract of the modern American ethos. A caricature of their worst qualities. Doesn’t mean those tendencies didn’t exist normally, but they are well reflected in this senile old man.

Nice gesture but Mr. Johnson and the House of Representative Republicans voted not to talk about tariffs and also to tie their hands behind their back.

Not sufficient proof donations from Haleon, makers of over-the-counter ibuprofen Advil.

Situation Normal:

one minute, let me get chatgpt to summarize this, I can’t bother to read it…

Since this is uplifting news, I’ll skip past everything I would have said on other subs to get to the silver lining:

I hope this gets Americans to actually start caring for themselves, and further to realize that feeding a lot of people at once costs less than trying to figure out how to feed one family at a time. And lastly that it is billionaires causing hunger, not immigrants.
