It’s that really the case? That’s absurd. nobody looks like their license photo so I’m surprised the state doesn’t provide an exemption.

If it’s a tool and being used for a clear purpose why can’t the driver be Amish?

Not to forget this is Lemmy which has a development leadership so left leaning that the CIA are likely already working on regime destabilisation

Most of the Linux communities are the same.

often the content isn’t even related to Linux it’s just tirades of anger against corporations. Doesn’t even have to be Microsoft, any commercial that dares make any move in the Linux space - Canonical, red hat, oracle get derided too.

I’ve been really impressed by pcloud too. I opted for the lifetime subscription through a black Friday deal - for triple replicated redundancy it’s an absolute steal.

While it’s not a full replacement the raw materials making up the road surface can be reduced. Here’s an example where books were recycled into the road surface - news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/…/3330245.stm

I thought this was quite an insightful graphic until I realised the terms backend and frontend were borrowed from the terms back of house and front of house.

Rogue , 8 months ago to linux in Microsoft changed it's data policy

We really need a separate community for Microsoft news.

Adding “btw, does anyone of you know a good alternative for PowerPoint?” does not make this a Linux topic…

Do you have a source for them encouraging genocide? That’s a pretty serious accusation to just throw out without citation.

Rogue , 8 months ago to piracy in Great News! Thank you Cloudfare.

The push for increased piracy is well-intended but for rightsholders it represents a major drawback too;

I assume they meant to write privacy there because I can’t imagine enhanced piracy was intended

I can’t be the only one who misread the comma and thought the gynecologist was abusing hundreds of dead women?

Rogue , 8 months ago to nostupidquestions in Bike Riders of lemmy, you okay with me riding my eScooter in the bike lane?

That’s an interesting thought but I’m not sure I agree. Should runners use bike lanes? I’d say it’s more to do with the danger each transport poses.

A runner is very capable of avoiding people walking, and even if they were to collide the impact is minimal.

A cyclist is much less capable of dodging a pedestrian, hence why they don’t belong on a pavement. Same would apply to scooters.

Cars and large goods vehicles are a threat to cyclists due to the speed disparity.
