Amazing case of newspeak. To call involuntary detainment at home "caring".

The irony is that vegans seem to care about the wellbeing of animals, but seem to forget to care about their fellow humans. Thats all. I can see how you feel this is a cheap shot. However, you are not the one who has been hurt by a fellow humans careless behaviour, so I feel like I have a little bit of an angle to this. People evangelizing run the risk of their other actions also being put on the scale...

No worries, if they knew what you are planning for them, cats would also be scared of you... Listening to (yours) cars mews is typically enough to read the message. Mine was pretty good at sounding anoyed and/or sugar sweet and/or helpless.

The biggest difference from otther obstacles is that bikes can fall over, and typically do so while landing on your foot or Achilles Tendon. It can also hurt mightily if you happen to ramm a handlebar into your stomache.

As a blind pedastian, I disagree violently. I typically hurt myself once a week because a careless cyclist put their bicycle in an inappropriate place. In front of a shop, because they are just going in for a minute, for example. Cyclists do the most harm to blind individuals in a city. Cars cant even come close.

Hmm, "The Circle" comes to mind. I wonder how many years we are away from this book becoming the reality.

Quit Google Now. Remember that you were always a bit stupid to choose Gmail and bite the bullet and get rid of it. If you are an Android user, I feel your pain.

The only thing I am a bit reluctant to throw away is my YT account. But if the content quality degradation keeps on going, it will eventually be quite easy to throw out.

But she is right. After some time, the old has to make way for the new. There is no way around this. The pandemic has taught this lesson to many people while they were forced to sit alone at home.

Complaining about being downvoted on a related topic are not productive either.

The new wave of feminism apparently doesn't want to remember this phrase anymore: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2019/12/the-brilli...

I wonder how much CO2 impact the CI revolution in open source really has. While I see how this is convenient, I sometimes wonder if we really need to spin up a 30min build for every PR/commit. I have never heard the community reflect on the impact it has with all the convenient cloud computing. Just spin up a ton of hosts to do your thing, yes? If you can pay for it, its OK? I guess owners of fossil-fuel consuming vehicles think the same. So, where are the environmental activists in the open source area pointing fingers at CI usage?
