One Neighborhood’s ‘Bizarre Culture War’ Over Bike Lanes
  • I thought they were completely insane but losing their parking because of poor planning is a good reason to be mad.

    The city planners created a town that wasn't walkable and then took away parking from a few people knowing that a minority of complainers can't fight back.

    If the council wants to take away a few citizens' parking, how about they bulldoze the council members yards for parking lots. Even better is eminent domain the council members homes to turn it mixed use urban design to make the town walkable. Then they can have more bike lanes and everyone is happy.

  • Miyoo Mini+
  • OnionOS changed my entire mindset about what a retro handheld should be. I have an Anbernic 351m, Retroid 3+, and now a mini.

    The mini, despite being technically inferior is by far my favorite because of OnionOS. Being able to turn it on, have it start right where I left off, and then ignore it and it completely turns itself off- not sleep makes it so easy that I play it all the time.

    Retroid means Android which means it sleeps instead of powering off. And fill power on is slow. And configuring a Game Front End is always extremely time consuming.

    Onion just works. If they added a single Thumbstick to the Miyoo, it could handle N64 and I wouldn't need anything else.

  • Sovcit has a question.
  • That's most cases but I did have an employee whose ex would file non payment of child support on Friday so he would be jailed until Monday when the clerk was back in the office and verify that yes he paid his child support.

  • Moderate conservatives be like
  • The Larry Hogan campaign for Senate.

    He's the former governor of Maryland who had to deploy the national guard to keep Trump from stealing the PPE coming into Maryland and giving it to his son-in-law to be sold to Trump loyal states.

  • South Korea is dying (but it has a plan) - CaspianReport
  • Yet another "population decline is the end of the world" bull shit article. Population decline is not a problem. Historical population declines worse than the current ones like the Black Plague and WW2 have always resulted in a better world for everyone.

    When the population goes back to sustainable levels it will go back up again. It's no different than any other ecology where animals outgrow their environment's carrying capacity and decline. After declining, they grow again until the limit is reached again.

    When population goes back to 1950's levels, labor will be valued like it was in the 1950's, and the average person will once again have the wealth and leisure time to have a family.

    Population decline is only a problem for the ruling class who live by skimming a little profit from all workers. If there are less workers, they will have to be paid more which means less excess capital for mega yachts.

  • Ubiquiti U7 Pro Max WiFi 7 Access Point Teardown: To fan or not to fan
  • I never claimed it was. But Java comes with its own baggage of Oracle shenanigans (they could start licensing drama with open source forks just like they did a few years ago) and java security patches means maintenance. All of which would be completely unnecessary if Ubiquity let you setup the AP with ssl.

    The controller interface is amazing. But it, or a phone app should not be required to set up an AP.

  • The Supreme Court just made a massive power grab it will come to regret
  • The author came to the wrong conclusion. Yes the Supreme Court making themselves the authority on all federal policy will increase their case load. No, it does not mean they will actually need to do any more work. Cases will be backlogged for as long as they want.

    Businesses can now dump toxic waste onto public lands knowing that they are safe from judgement for decades.

  • Microsoft has gone too far: including a Game Pass ad in the Settings app ushers in a whole new age of ridiculous over-advertising
  • No, Pihole doesn't help.

    I think the reason you say you haven't seen an ad on Windows is because the ads aren't the traditional ads like you see on a webpage.

    When someone talks about an ad on Windows, they are referring to the Spotify app presinstalled in the Start Menu, the OneDrive prompt for backing up during setup, and the weather bug on the taskbar that brings up news if you click it.

    You might think that a weather widget isn't an ad, but the idea is you click it, see a relevant news article, click the news article and you are taken to a traditional webpage with ads.

  • 3,25€ lunches at a work canteen in Spain
  • What I mean is workers who leave for lunch are more likely to come back later. Coming back late from lunch happens all the time and no one is fired from Accounting for taking 45 minutes instead of 30 minutes.

    Workers taking lunch with other workers in the office are also more likely to talk about work as compared to meeting friends outside of work for lunch. If you are talking about work during lunch with coworkers, that's like having an office meeting during lunch.

  • Deleted posts should create an auto reply to the creator.

    I replied to a post in a thread (about how my 15 year old burned DVDs were going bad and what I was doing to remedy it). The thread is still there but my post is gone. It wasn't an argument. It was a reply to someone asking for data backup options.

    Some auto generated explanation from Lemmy would be nice like : post deleted by owner. Or posted deleted by moderator.
