  • ‘Please, please, please’: Denmark urges citizens to avoid driving as oil prices spike

    Jump

  • When we moved to a developed nation from the US, I started commuting via train. My reading logs for books have gone through the roof. I also get to practice languages and use the time to generally enjoy my day. Driving a car never allowed this kind of living well.

    I'm up to about 230 days car-free and it's wonderful.

  • What would it take for you to switch to Linux?

    Jump

  • To quote a novel of greatness:

    "In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."

    And somehow it led to me using Linux like fraking forever.

  • Is requiring the guy to use a condom even though you have an IUD being over the top?

    Jump

  • STD's aren't diagnosed (mostly) just by looking at people. That's exactly why they're so tough to eradicate.

    Wear protection and protect yourself. You did just fine here. If he is unwilling to be up to your safety needs, then he's not worth keeping around.

  • Of fuck. I'm not far behind you on that 30 year number. Wtf happened?

  • 10 players from Jamaican club denied entry to US

    Jump

  • This FIFA event might be the US version of the 1936 Olympics.

  • Queens Boulevard, New York City. It’s insane that we allow car dealerships to take over as much land as they want to store cars

    Jump

  • Oh, don't worry, someone's got a solution for you. Hopefully it'll cost even more than a normal tow.

  • ‘Bitter result’ for Friedrich Merz as Greens win in German car heartland

    Jump

  • Though the CDU/CSU party keeps trying to move right to get some of those A* voters and it's not working.

  • What is your oldest living presence on the World Wide Web?

    Jump

  • I can still log into my Slashdot /. account, I think. That's from 1997-98?

  • Queens Boulevard, New York City. It’s insane that we allow car dealerships to take over as much land as they want to store cars

    Jump

  • Another company who has a tow truck might be really happy to know how many of those cars are parked illegally. Find the scummiest one you can too.

    Yeah, it's insane how entitled people get about using public spaces to store their private metal boxes just because the boxes have wheels.

  • Australia expands age verification checks to porn and explicit video games

    Jump

  • Strange that once you start having ways to make people identify themselves the government would expand it's use! Who would have foreseen that?

  • Why Some People Think Food Is Better In Europe Than In The US

    Jump

  • Having moved from the US to the EU recently (but having visited for 25+ years). Yes, the food is better in the EU.

    The US food is over processed sugar infused sawdust unless you work hard to get specialized and direct from small farms sources.

    Here in the EU I walk to any corner store or street vendor and it's consistently amazing.

  • Downtown Spokane, Washington. The red areas represent surface parking lots, while the purple ones indicate parking garages

    Jump

  • Most Americans think their fellow citizens have poor morals

    Jump

  • I was doorbelling for a local mayoral race. One of the people who we met openly talked about how if we have him a squad of US Marines (he said he was one) and a wood chipper he would "solve the homelessness problem in no time".

    So... That's the kind of interactions I have with conservatives. Please let me know what I should fill out on this survey based on that kind of data.

  • Downtown Spokane, Washington. The red areas represent surface parking lots, while the purple ones indicate parking garages

    Jump

  • I made a similar map to this for Spokane a few years back. I focused on downtown and it was bad.

    Then I did one for North of the river. Holy moly it's a sea of asphalt there.

  • I don't feel this push for locking us out of control over our own systems under the cover of "protecting the children with age verification" is anything more than a continued effort to secure a DRM-based hardware system for the MSFT OS and media companies. This smells just like their pushes in the past to steal control over hardware through legal channels. It's the same war we've been fighting for 30 years now.

    Read up on the Clipper Chip from the 90's. What's old is new again.

  • Good lord

    Jump

  • I'm quite familiar with that one.

    The worst one was the pre Raspberry Pi 3 boards. The early ones used an on board Ethernet chip set that was slaved directly to the USB controller. It was USB 2.0 so it could negotiate 100, but really run much less than that.

    Then, if you put in a keyboard, mouse, and a USB thumb drive the USB host would multiplex over them and your bandwidth for data transfer would drop precipitously.

    I was so happy when they moved to a real Ethernet chip instead of a USB adapter. The new limitation became the microSD... Of course they also introduced the grounding reset issue on the USB port, but just don't plus or unplug anything and it'd be fine.

  • Good lord

    Jump

  • What if they're external drives with their own power supplies? I've done things nearly this convoluted, but used self powered devices.

  • Good lord

  • I know a degraded binary search tree when I see one. Stop inserting presorted data you yabbos! Otherwise, you'll need to pull out a Red-Black tree and nobody's got time for those kinds of rotations.

  • FCC Chair Wants Networks to Pledge Loyalty for America's Big Bday

    Jump

  • So you want performative patriotism and a nice dose of Jingoism instead of letting people be humans with pride in something?
