Yeah. There was an incident in the university where I studied that the whole roof collapsed. https://hongkongfp.com/2016/06/10/city-university-may-sue-contractor-rooftop-collapse-investigation-report-released/
I couldn't find a setting to enable gif autoplay. Is it hidden somewhere?
I have enabled video autoplay but the gifs are still not playing.
I'm using eternity v0.1.2 from fdroid.
What are these dotted ball shaped things I circled in yellow in the image?
I thought they may be sea urchin skeletons. Though the things in the image may be too many and too large?
They are in a mural in Brighton, England. The subject is "Protecting Costa Rican Wildlife", so I guess they are of some native species there.
I'm looking for a smart power strip, which allows me to remote control and schedule on/off.
Last year I bought Hey!'s smart power strip. Hey! is a UK brand, but turn out its products are just branded Chinese products. I used it anyway but it just bricked itself last month.
For quality, safety, and security reasons, I would prefer a non-made-in-China smart power strip.
Compatibility with Home Assistant is prefered, but not 100% required. I'm interested in switching to Home Assistant but I haven't yet.
Thanks for any suggestions!

a book store with a café
This is easy because the tags don't overlap.
shop=books
amenity=cafe
a café by day and a wine bar by night
I saw something like this before, and they are usually two businesses with different names. I used two separated POIs (points) placed in the same building area to denote them. In this way, I can also put different names, opening_hours etc to the two POIs.
This is a longstanding issue that wheelmap knew and promised to solve.
In this information era, some of the few people who are resilient against fake news are the weebs. They're always asking for sauce. Be like weebs.
Thanks for checking. I've just sent an email to feddit.uk to see if they have any idea on their side.
My posts and comments to feddit.uk communities aren't going through. I can only see the posts and comments on this instance but not on feddit.uk.

Is there any technical problem or is one defederated with another?

It still happens to me as of today.
I've found the relevant GitHub issue, which says the fix is to compile lemmy with pict-rs v0.4.0-beta.7 or later versions.
At least you're not rewarded with more ads.
Not using TikTok is still an option and that's what I chose.
That sounds so much like Twitter and Reddit... lol
Found this at home in England. I moved to England from Hong Kong not long ago, so I'm not familiar with local spiders at all. Maybe it's very common?
I lived in Kowloon when Kai Tak Airport was still in use. We had planes flying super low above our place all the time everyday.
Here is a picture I found on Wikimedia Commons that illustrate how low were the planes.

It was very noisy as you can imagine.
The schools in Kowloon had air cons installed pretty early when air cons were still considered expensive and not very common among school buildings. It was necessary because the windows had to be closed for all time for soundproofing.
Have you played the password game yet?
Use Newpipe. It plays youtube (and several video sites') videos without any ads nor trackings. No Google account needed.
Install it and set it as the app for opening youtube links in system settings.
Note that the app is not available in Google Play store. It can be installed from f-droid, or you can directly download its apk.
Note that moderate intake of alcohol can be beneficial to health.
More than 100 prospective studies show an inverse association between light to moderate drinking and risk of heart attack, ischemic (clot-caused) stroke, peripheral vascular disease, sudden cardiac death, and death from all cardiovascular causes.
But if you're only considering cancer, then as some of the other answers suggested, cutting alcohol intake to zero could reduce the risk of getting cancer, although the reduction is likely very small that's neglectable.
A page where you can watch our wonderful barn owl livestream.
Livestream of a barn owl family in the UK by Somerset Wildlife Trust.
>For the past three years, our barn owl box in the Blackdown Hills has been inhabited by our barn owl couple - Finn and Trude - and the previous two years Finn and his other lady owl, Orla. > >We are so delighted that Finn and Trude have hatched 4 fabulous owlets this year. They are on the brink of fledging so we're expecting a bit of a barn owl circus in the barn as they flap about finding their wings to venture out on their own.
Worldwide, glass manufacturing produces at least 86 million tons of carbon dioxide every year. A new type of glass promises to cut this carbon footprint in half. The invention, called LionGlass and engineered by researchers at Penn State, requires significantly less energy to produce and is much mor...
Played it for the first time. I was only able to keep it for 26 days. Got rotting food and spiders in the bin 🥲 Pretty fun! Thanks for sharing.
I moved to England from Hong Kong recently. I found that it is common to see these holes (tiny doorway arch looking thing) in front of houses. What are they?
I have never been a real photographer. The last time I owned a camera (not phone) was 10 years ago. Since smartphone became popular, I have always preferred using smartphones because it's easier to carry around.
However, occasionally I do wish I had better gears, mostly lens. I recently moved from a big city to somewhere with more wildlifes, and I'm interested in shooting some bird photos, so I guess I need some good lens with zoom factor. Are there any phone accessories that will allow me to do this?
Hong Kong style baked rice. At CK Bistro, Brighton, England.
Less problems of sweaty hands and grilling laps. Pretty useful for me using Intel MacBook Pro during heatwave.

> The company supplies bacteria that can process 98 percent of organic waste into water and carbon dioxide in just 24 hours, eliminating the need to turn it into compost, which is often not put to use.
Sounds like this can be useful in big cities where there are not much green space to put compost to use.
I know many of you got bored of these clichés. But without them, it's not Brighton.
