That’s fun. I was a driver kid and didn’t know what I was missing till I moved to a place with good bike/public transport infrastructure.

I suspect people who claim that they prefer to have a car never experienced how much better life quality is in a place without cars where cycling is convenient.

(The noise pollution alone is worth it!)

You might want to check out https://gpslogger.app/ for logging. I’m super happy with the battery usage. My use case is on multiday tracks, so battery charge is a luxury.

I disagree.

I disagree.

Pronouns are not names.

Yes, that is why I wrote “like”. They serve the same functionality.

second

That is the first time you wrote second. That’s very telling.

Well it kinda is. Pronouns are like names, in the sense that we use them to describe to whom we refer.

They are a non injective function on the name set.

The restriction you would like to make is that the function is not multivalued. But it is. As an example, Andrea is a name that is usually associated with a female person, but it is a normal name for male people in Italy.

We allowed people to be named whatever they wanted (or their parents wanted), so why not also let them choose whatever pronoun they prefer?

If you’re with Dan (they/them) and Dan (he/him), you would also have the problem when saying

“I was with Dan and Dan the other day. Dan hadn’t brought the poster, so Dan went back to the car to get it.”

So to avoud confusion, people should not be allowed to be called Dan anymore. In fact everyone gets a UUID so there is no more confusion.

We agree. We make he/him obsolete and we’re all she/her, as there are more female people on the planet, so less people have to adapt

Calling people what they ask to be called just doesn’t have to be this difficult.

We in fact do it all the time. It’s just people have gotten used to using names. But it’s not like you were born with a Dave chromosome. Your parents decided to call you Dave, so in the end it’s also just a made up name/sound.

l10n is a bitch. The exceptions are almost as bad as timezones…

The swiss use ’ as a separator. So they would write 900’000 which upside down would look like 000,006 so the confusion could continue

Luckily no one remembered to put it in the middle yet, which I assume is only because 50€10 looks cursed.

Exceptionally, the symbol for the Cape Verdean escudo (like the Portuguese escudo, to which it was formerly pegged) is placed in the decimal separator position, as in 2$50.

Ignoring the article and focusing ob the picture: how can people leave so much trash behind? More so on a lawn.

I have been running Linux for some time now, still had a Windows partition for gaming. Then I switched the motherboard and windows decided I no longer had a key for it… I stopped playing most of the windows exclusive games. Since last week I can’t even boot anymore, something about missing drivers. Spent a day trying to fix it. Today I decided fuck it and I’m just leaving it behind! It makes no sense wasting so much energy on a vastly inferior OS that actively tries to fight me.

Well Sarahs shirt is italic!

If windows ships curl, then it’s easy!

Would have been nice to see the cities as pie charts, as probably none of the cities are 100% voting for a party. So it’s a big difference if Clayton is 50% + 1 Dems or 75%.

No I understand, I really do. I develop myself. The thing is, if it’s opt-out, then it does not seem to be necessary. If it’s necessary, then you have to show that your interest in bug fixing outweights the users right to privacy.

I think if you use your own Matomo instance I’m way more ok with it, than if you include google.

If your app could also be used by people from the EU, you have to be GDPR complaiant as IP adresses are considered personal information. The question if crash reports are necessary (in the sense of GDPR Art. 6) hasn’t been decided yet AFAIK.

If you don’t want to be allowed on the stage again: “The pope song” from Tim Minchin is a bit over 2 minutes and has an over 30 fucks/minute score. And it only has a 2 second instrumental break.

Of the top of my head go with “Norwgian Wood” by the Beatles. Barely above 2 minutes with a single instrumental break of 15 seconds (which because of the shortness is actaully 12% of the song)
