You just know someone in the chain wanted to be able to say, ‘we were the first’, then they got fact checked and had to add in that qualifier of commercially available ground station.

Surely any rational individual already acknowledges that subject as lunacy. The segment of people that after seeing the joke would fall victim to the conspiracy is bound to be smaller than the segment that find it mildly amusing.
Damn, no one got the joke about the two top commenters in the thread becoming the same entity?
Oh well, it was pretty low effort.
Pretty big thought you’ve got there.
Have you considered joining forces with another influential thought leader such as @oakey66@lemm.ee? Together you could better serve the commenting community across the platform.
Is it just me or does that bike have a kink in its neck?
Strikes me as fishy that the finance ministry went to court with Apple to say ‘no don’t pay tax’.
If they don’t want the tax, have the cheque made out to the EU.
Stop signs in general aren’t the best solution. So long as we have them though, a rolling stop is the way to go when on two wheels.
I haven’t looked at any numbers, but surely if we taxed billionaires enough to turn them back into millionaires, we’d probably not have to tax anyone else at all.
“Ireland does not give preferential tax treatment to any companies or taxpayers,” stated a spokesperson from the Irish Ministry of Finances.
I wish the media would eviscerate these people like they used to.
How I wish AI wasn’t such a catch all buzzword.
Not exactly related to this article but, I looked this judge up on Ballotpedia, and found this funny little tidbit.
Judge Merchan handed the Trump Organization a $1.6M fine in that tax case a couple years ago. The District Attorney for Manhattan, Alvin Bragg, said:
“While corporations can’t serve jail time, this consequential conviction and sentencing serves as a reminder to corporations and executives that you cannot defraud tax authorities and get away with it.”
What a head of cabbage. As if a couple million dollars is anything to these corporations. These fines need to be double digit percentages of revenue before they get viewed as anything other than a line item on the expense report.
30 miles range, functional design while not looking foolish, from a reputable company, all for less than $3,000? Not bad.
More than the average person drives each day, and costs less than the average person spends in a single year on a car. I could see cargo bikes like this replacing vehicles for many people.
What a responsible use of public money. I’d love to have these buses in my area, if for nothing else than to reduce noise levels.
Oddly enough, last year I used dish soap in the laundry for a few months without noticing, and nothing like this happened. I was surprised when I looked it up and saw this kind of thing as a common occurrence. Couldn’t believe I had picked up this container each weekend for months without noticing the picture of plates and glasses on the front.
I understand now these soaps are quite different from one another and the fact nothing happened to me is a fluke, so definitely don’t do this on purpose.
These things happen to everyone from time to time.
I myself misworded some comments just the other day in frustration and inadvertently caused an upset. No worries at all. It’s big of you to come in here and correct yourself. It speaks volumes to the type of person you are.
Cheers.
What an invaluable sacrifice. She no doubt saved the lives of multiple children, and her actions will radiate throughout their lifetimes.
Not sure why articles like these don’t link the donation pages, but it’s currently about £40k raised of the £50k goal.
I’ve been using Organic Maps (from F-Droid) and it has a “Keep the screen on” option in the settings. That said, I’ve never had the screen dim while navigating to a destination. The setting I mentioned prevents timeout when you’ve got the map open but not on route somewhere.
Funny how I even typed December and it didn’t click in my head it was a different season.
Writing when tired isn’t a recipe for well thought comments evidently.
In most places all ‘bicycle infrastructure’ means is some paint splashed next to the curb of major thoroughfares.
What I wouldn’t give for bike parking areas at the local shops.

OHIO
It’s not related really, but seeing this article about Ohio doing something stupid reminded me of this article, and specifically the Instagram propaganda shown off within.
