  • While it's dumb to call it green, it's fine and very useful to use it as part of a transition towards renewables. That's what this is actually about, countries being allowed to use part of the funds for the energy transition for gas.

  • The lawsuit argued that the city council’s policy didn’t maintain neutrality because it allowed certain flags — like the U.S. and state flags, prisoner-of-war flags and flags that “represent the international character” of residents — while banning other types of flags – like political, religious, and racial flags.

    If that claim is accurate it is a selective ban. Allowing only government flags on government flagpoles could be reasonable. But then they should still ban international flags, and if the POW flag is not a government thing that as well.

  • It's not unrealistic if you don't expect it to be watertight. They've already banned piracy and gambling sites here. It's a simple DNS block and so only for people using their ISP's DNS. It still works, way fewer people use the sites that are blocked.

  • I used to think that too, but it's so far only Google Messages and Apple iMessage? GSMA only added E2EE in RCS recently, Google is still using their own thing on top and Apple nothing yet. You have to be a member of GSMA to read the whole spec.

  • I guess I've always just made the new passwords in Bitwarden and have it fill in the form rather than fill in the form and let Bitwarden save it. Do you not use generated passwords? Can't help you on the offline thing, I see how that would be annoying.

  • Saw this in the American pavilion at the biennale in Venice, don't remember if it was literally this or similar. The message is good, execution clever enough, definitely not my favourite aesthetically. My friend hated the whole thing.

  • Platforms that may want no affiliation but don't censor enough (sometimes nothing, sometimes only reported actually illegal things) usually end up becoming nazi platforms. (see the punk bar parable)
    I don't think Odysee is as bad as Bitchute yet, but my hopes for it becoming good are zero.

  • Some issues are solvable with better architecture but developers don't make money on it, many only build for the landlords. Stuff like good soundproofing between separate units, both a lift and multiple staircases in bigger buildings, visual variation between buildings or parts of buildings so people don't get lost or stir crazy, outdoor spaces with both vegetation and useable areas.

    Depends on your city, but many need more medium-density, not go straight from terraced housing to seven floor buildings.

  • I do get the appeal of things needing to work without internet, but it seems very broad as a category. People use webapps for things that used to be local, like Office 365 or Figma, or even searching in Google to do arithmetic, so the calculator app is offline first.

    On mobile I think a more reasonable example is offline maps, I use OSMand myself but recommend Organic Maps to less technical people.

    About offpunk, all browsers used to have that. Firefox still has the "work offline" option in the file menu. In offline mode you can go to any webpage that you visited while online.
