Truly shameriffic to switch to Ecosia, based in Europe and working on their own European indexer. I’d hate to see Google lose shareholder value.

Most speed cameras are either revenue-neutral or generate a small amount of revenue for the city.

I love that this won’t happen on Lemmy.

It’d be a shame if more people switched from Chrome to Firefox with UBlock ad blocker…

Those who can afford to should consider donating to support development too.

I’d call the SenseCap a complete device. https://www.seeedstudio.com/SenseCAP-Card-Tracker-T1000-E-for-Meshtastic-p-5913.html

Your write some of the best essays I’ve read btw. I appreciate you.

Can we stop it with the low effort dunks?

Obligatory !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com

i.e. hardship

I actually disagree.

There is a tipping point when MAGA followers are forced into situations where they must rely on their neighbour and mutual aid. They’ll be forced out of necessity to interact with people across the aisle who are giving them compassion.

You’re already seeing republicans flipping before that point from the DOGE cuts. Also, the governor of Kentucky is already flipping after their largest purchaser by a long-shot, Canada, took all their booze off the shelves.

A big part of the plan was that in addition to reducing car usage, the revenues collected by congestion pricing would be used to make huge investments in improving public transit, thereby reducing car dependencey even further. Win-win!

Cars should not need registration, licensing, or insurance.

Waaaaait a minute, what?

Sure, I can ride a bike, but I could never ride a bike 300 miles for a weekend trip to any arbitrary destination

This is a strawman argument. 300 mile trips are better suited for trains.

Better for people with physical handicaps

The majority of physical disabilities prevent people from driving, resulting in a loss of mobility and freedom when they do not have viable alternatives. Many people who do not bike for transport and do not talk to people who bike for transport see a handicap parking spot and assume that everybody with a handicap drives.

People cycling and using public transit free up road space for the minority of people with handicaps who drive. I know two utilitarian cyclists with disabilities who cannot drive but use a bicycle as their primary means of transportation.

Can be more easily/comfortably used in extreme weather

Wear a jacket. Many of us go for walks in extreme weather. There are very cold and hot countries all over the world that have high rates of bicycle usage for transport. The problem usually lies in cities designing and maintaining their roads in a hostile way to all forms of transportation other than bicycles in the winter. Look at Montreal and Oulu for counter-examples. Even the Netherlands gets constant rain.

This is a great video on the topic.

Doesn’t leave you as hot and sweaty, especially when going to work

Monetization is in the pipeline for PeerTube. Since viewers share parts of the video with other viewer peers (like torrenting), viral videos do not cost PeerTube servers like they would on YouTube.

Everybody should consider donating even €1 to PeerTube and/or Framasoft if they can.

No, PixelFed is fully Canadian. It is also open-source, Federated, and the developer is a stand up guy.

Spotify was a massive donor to the Trump campaign and pays artists one of the lowest rates per song.
